Playa de los Guios is a stunning beach located near a harbor. The beach is known for its dark sand and clear sea, which offers a beautiful view of the surrounding rocks. However, the beach is relatively small and can get crowded, with plenty of people around. Despite its popularity, the beach maintains a natural charm with its backdrop of stunning scenery.
The beach is easily accessible by parking at the nearby harbor, although it is paid parking. From the harbor, visitors need to walk up a street towards the town and follow the sign next to the tourist shops. Despite the walk, the beach is well worth the visit.
The beach is also known for its black sands and rough sea, which can be a fun experience for those who are careful. However, due to the presence of rocks in parts of the water, sea shoes are recommended for safety. The beach can get extremely hot in the summer, so visitors are advised to bring or hire an umbrella for shade.
In addition to its natural beauty, the beach is also surrounded by a range of amenities. There are restaurants and gift shops nearby for visitors to explore. For convenience, there are also showers and toilets available on the beach. However, visitors should be aware that the water can sometimes become brown due to dirt from boats.
