Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa de Charco Azul, also called Los Llanillos, is a tiny rocky cove measuring only 8 metres long and 3 metres wide. It lies in isolation beneath a cliff frontage, near houses with flower-filled gardens, and has vegetation, low occupancy and moderate waves. Signposted access is easy on foot via the road to Los Llanillos, with parking for fewer than 50 vehicles. The entry records surveillance using material resources and first aid, as well as Hospital Insular del Hierro as the medical reference.
