Beach overview

Playa la Tejita is located in the south of Tenerife, near the town of El Médano.

Wheelchair access: Playa la Tejita has a wooden walkway that provides partial access to the beach, but the sand and natural terrain may make full access challenging for wheelchairs. The parking area is close to the entrance, and there are basic facilities nearby.

The beach is known for its natural beauty and is popular with windsurfers and naturists. There are no large buildings or resorts nearby, but there is a beach bar (chiringuito) and basic amenities. The area can be windy, and there is little shade, so bring sun protection.

Some buses also stop at the nearby La Tejita stop, from which the beach is a 10–15 minute walk.
