El Arenal Beach, located between Punta Hidalgo and Bajamar in San Cristóbal de La Laguna, Tenerife, offers a serene and less crowded environment. It is known for its volcanic dark sandy beach mixed with pebbles, stretching 700 meters in length. The beach's conditions vary significantly with the seasons, offering strong waves ideal for surfers during winter, while the sea is calmer in summer. The surrounding hills add a picturesque backdrop to this coastal area.
The beach's accessibility is limited, requiring visitors to walk through a trail starting near Hotel Neptuno. Despite its beauty and natural conditions, it remains less developed in terms of amenities. However, it is a perfect spot for those seeking a peaceful and natural beach experience.
El Arenal's charm lies in its tranquility and the varying ocean conditions, making it appealing to surf enthusiasts as well as those seeking a calm oceanic setting.
