Barranco de los Conejos

Barranco de los Conejos near Teguise is an undeveloped natural beach with open coastal access on foot and no gates or set hours. Expect no admission fee, no formal parking and no direct public transport, with the final approach on foot from surrounding coastal tracks over sand and rock. Use established paths, wear sturdy footwear and take care on uneven natural ground, especially on slopes and loose sections where footing can change. The beach has no facilities, no toilets or showers, no shops or kiosks and no lifeguard service, so every visit needs full self-sufficiency. Bring drinking water, food, sun protection and portable shade because sun exposure is high and little natural shade is available. Carry a bag for all rubbish and carry everything out, as there are no bins or cleaning services. Visitor numbers are usually very low, and short stays of a few hours are typical, which helps limit water, food and sun protection needs. Morning and late afternoon offer milder sun and more comfortable conditions for walking in and resting on mixed sand and rock. Mild conditions continue through the year with wind, while May to October is warmer and drier, so wind protection and extra water remain useful in all seasons. The shore faces Atlantic water with waves and currents that vary by day, so assess swimming conditions carefully from the shore before entering. If water movement looks strong or uncertain, stay near the edge and avoid swimming alone. Dogs may be restricted or require control, so follow local signs and keep animals under close control where they are allowed.
