La Puntilla Beach

The largest beach in La Gomera

At 1,400 metres long and 30 metres wide, this beach is the largest in La Gomera. Divided into two by rocks, it has black sand and calm, transparent water. Its seabed is very high quality and great for diving.

Swimming in a protected area

Like the entire municipality of Valle del Gran Rey, this beach is located within a protected area. The site has numerous services such as showers and footbaths. There is also a local promenade where we can find a wide variety of restaurants and shops. You can access the area on foot, by car (parking is provided), or via public transport.

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.
