Ereses Beach

A beach between ravines

Within the municipality of Alajeró, at the bottom of a ravine between two cliffs, this beach is surrounded by mountains. Its calm waters and dark sand make it an ideal place for those looking to escape. Although access isn’t easy, the traveler who dares to reach its sand will be amazed by the rocky landscape and the contrast of turquoise waters and the earthier tones of the mountains.

A Site of Scientific Interest

As part of the Alajeró coast, the Ereses beach has been declared a Site of Scientific Interest due to the large number of plant and animal species that inhabit this strip of land. There are about 150 species of arachnids on La Gomera, of which more than half are endemic to the island.

Sustainability

Never leave waste of any type lying around, including cigarette butts. Leftover food leads to a proliferation of rats and wild cats.
Do not throw any waste or other objects into the sea.
Respect the animals. Do not bother them or feed them. If you see an injured specimen, you can call the emergency number: 112. Do not pick flowers or plants from the environment.
Do not pick up or take away stones or any other item from the natural environment. And do not move them to pile them up into sadly famous 'towers'.
Do not use soap or gel in the showers located at the entrance to the beach.
Try to use ocean-friendly sun creams.
Pets are prohibited at most beaches. Make sure you can take them beforehand.
Try not to alter the peace of the environment with excessive noise (loud music, yelling, etc.) or activities that might be bothersome, such as ball games.
