Playa de Echentive, Natural beach in Fuencaliente de La Palma, Spain
The black sand beach extends for 275 meters along the coastline, featuring volcanic stones and gravel of various sizes near steep cliffs.
The beach emerged during the Teneguía volcano eruption between October and November 1971, when lava flows extended the land into the sea.
Near the beach lies the gallery of Fuente Santa, thermal springs buried in 1677 and rediscovered in 2000, marking local geological heritage.
The beach lacks facilities, requiring visitors to bring necessary supplies, though natural pools at the cliff base provide protected swimming areas.
The proximity to thermal springs has prompted development plans for spa facilities, integrating natural features with future wellness tourism.
