Playa de Bajamar, Volcanic beach in Bajamar, Tenerife, Spain.
The 200-meter-long beach combines dark sand with gravel and features multiple natural seawater pools formed by volcanic rocks along the shoreline.
The beach area developed from a small fishing settlement into a coastal resort during the early 20th century when locals discovered its medicinal seawater properties.
The beach hosts regular celebrations of Canarian traditions, where residents gather to share local gastronomy and perform traditional folk music.
Visitors can access changing rooms, showers, and a lifeguard station, while numerous restaurants and cafes line the adjacent maritime promenade.
The natural pools at Playa de Bajamar fill with seawater during high tide, creating protected swimming areas regardless of ocean conditions.
