About the beach

Puntallana · La Palma

At Playa de Nogales, the greenery of the Puntallana hillside extends over a towering cliff, while black volcanic sand—shimmering with grey and blue hues—stretches out below. The final stretch of the path is part of the experience, offering a gradually unfolding view of the sea. Surfers and naturists frequent this northeastern landscape, though the waves don't always invite swimming for everyone. Come simply to admire the contrast between the vegetation, the rock, and the ocean.
