Playa de Nogales, Sand beach in Puntallana, La Palma, Spain.
The 450-meter-long beach features black volcanic sand and cliffs, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean on the northeastern coast of La Palma.
The beach formed through volcanic activity that created La Palma island, resulting in its characteristic dark sand composition and surrounding rock formations.
Local residents maintain the natural state of the beach, which includes a designated area for naturist activities following Spanish coastal traditions.
Visitors need to walk 500 meters from the parking area to reach the beach, and swimming requires caution due to strong ocean currents.
The beach presents a natural phenomenon where black volcanic sand creates color variations with blue and grey tones under different light conditions.
