Playa de Benijo

Directions

Playa de Benijo is one of Tenerife's most breathtaking black sand beaches, surrounded by dramatic cliffs and impressive rock formations rising from the Atlantic Ocean. It's the perfect place to enjoy a peaceful walk, take in the wild coastal scenery, or simply relax while listening to the waves.

For the best photos, plan your visit around sunset. The warm golden light creates a beautiful contrast with the dark volcanic sand, and the sea stacks glow as the sun dips below the horizon. Be sure to stay after sunset as well. The colorful sky during blue hour often makes for the most spectacular shots.
