La Restinga

Enjoy the sun and the beach in a fishing village in El Hierro

The fishing village of La Restinga, located in the south of El Hierro, is the southernmost point of Spain. The tranquillity of its streets and coves and the richness of its seabed are the main attractions of this small town, perfect for those looking for sun and a nice beach but away from the big crowds. Its beach is perfect for the whole family, as it is protected from the waves by the harbour breakwater

Scuba diving in the Mar de las Calmas

La Restinga has a wide range of flats for rent, fresh fish restaurants and several supermarkets. Diving enthusiasts can go to any of the diving clubs to discover the Mar de las Calmas, one of the best diving areas in the Canary Islands. There is also a small museum dedicated to the underwater volcanic eruption that took place in 2011 about three kilometres off the coast of La Restinga.

Sustainability

Nunca dejes residuos de ningún tipo en el entorno, incluidas las colillas. Los restos de comida contribuyen a la proliferación de roedores y gatos asilvestrados que suponen una grave amenaza para la fauna.
No arrojes al mar objetos ni residuos de ningún tipo.
Respeta a los animales, no los molestes ni los alimentes. Si ves algún ejemplar herido, puedes avisar en el teléfono de emergencias 112. Tampoco arranques flores o plantas.
No recojas ni te lleves piedras o cualquier otro elemento del medio natural. Tampoco lo modifiques amontonándolas para realizar las tristemente famosas “torres”.
Respeta y cuida los distintos elementos del mobiliario público (paneles informativos, barandillas, asientos, alumbrado…).
Utiliza las papeleras y, en la medida de lo posible, deposita los residuos previamente separados en su contenedor correspondiente.
