Check out this spot in Puertito de Güímar. Great location for kayaking, canoeing, surfing, supping, body surfing and body boarding. Puertito de Güímar is a small coastal town located in the eastern part of Tenerife island. The area stands out for its black volcanic sand beaches and turquoise waters, which contrast with the rugged, rocky coastline. The town is surrounded by hills covered in cacti, succulents, and other endemic plants that thrive in the arid climate. The landscape is dominated by towering cliffs, which provide stunning views of the coastline and the shimmering Atlantic Ocean. The area also boasts a mild climate all year round, making it an excellent destination for outdoor activities such as trekking, hiking, and sunbathing. The town has a charming promenade lined with restaurants and cafes, where visitors can enjoy local dishes and drinks or simply soak up the relaxed atmosphere.
