Balancing Relaxation and Action in Las Playitas
Las Playitas retains the authentic charm of the Canary Islands, preserving the aroma and flavor of its maritime origins. Set on a picturesque hill overlooking the ocean, it paints a tranquil picture with traditional white fishermen’s houses. We recommend a walk along the Paseo Marítimo, where visitors can delve into the origins of the city, or enjoy freshly caught fish in one of the waterfront restaurants.
The charming beach that envelops Las Playitas is designed for the entertainment of visitors. While the sand is dark, dotted with rounded pebbles, the waters are shallow and generally calm. Its maritime character remains uncontaminated, thanks to its modest tourist development. It is a clean and safe sandy beach, perfect for water sports and leisure.
