Characteristics published by official sources

Playa del Verodal is notable for its red sand, an unusual feature on an isolated beach in El Hierro. Its 150 metres of length and 10 metres of width are made up of gravel, at the foot of a mountainous landscape with vegetation and strong surf. The surroundings belong to several protected designations, including Parque Rural and Reserva de la Biosfera. It can be reached on foot or by car via the road to Verodal, with parking for between 50 and 100 vehicles. There is signage warning of falling rocks and a recreation area with tables and barbecue facilities.
