Paso

Playa del Paso stretches 120 meters along the coast, featuring a distinctive olive sand shore bordered by natural basalt rock formations at sea level.

The beach formation resulted from intense volcanic activities that shaped the Canary Islands, leaving deposits of basalt rocks and mineral-rich sand.

The beach maintains a designation as a nude bathing location, reflecting the Spanish coastal practices of offering dedicated spaces for naturist activities.

Visitors need to bring their own supplies and equipment, as the beach lacks permanent facilities and stands 11 meters wide from waterline to shore.

The beach sand contains high concentrations of olivine minerals, creating an unusual greenish-olive color that contrasts with the black basalt surroundings.
