Playa de Esquinzo
★ 4.7 (395 reviews)
Playa de Esquinzo is one of those wild corners of Fuerteventura that captivates visitors seeking authenticity away from mass tourism. This isolated horseshoe-shaped beach, located at the mouth of Esquinzo ravine between El Cotillo and Tindaya, features golden sand mixed with black pebbles and is surrounded by breathtaking rock formations and dramatic cliffs.
The access via unpaved dirt tracks keeps crowds at bay, making it a paradise for intermediate to advanced surfers who appreciate the powerful waves that break creating an almost mystical salty mist. When the tide recedes, the beach transforms into a perfect space to enjoy total contact with nature. Sunsets here are legendary, painting the landscape in golden hues that make the effort of getting there worthwhile. A spot for those who value the raw beauty of the Atlantic Ocean in its purest state.
