    Tips

    November 8, 2024

    Due to bloody pirate attacks, the black beach is nicknamed Playa de los Muertos - "Beach of the Dead".

    About two kilometers from Ajuy lies the Caleta Negra, the "Black Bay", which can be reached via a well-developed hiking trail. The dark caves extend up to 600 meters into the rock. Above the caves you can see a lime kiln, which not only provided a good hiding place for pirates, but was also used as a lime store. About one kilometer north of the Caleta Negra, the Peña Horadada rock arch rises out of the water.
