Playa De San Juan: Beach, Skating and Sailing

Playa de San Juan can be viewed from different perspectives for a seaside stay. The beach, coastal activities, sailing and local history each offer a different focus. If you are looking for a hotel, you can first consider which interests matter for your trip and which activities you would like to include. Specific points of interest include small natural bathing areas, a paved promenade, sailing courses and a historic lime kiln.

Beach and Coastal Scenery

Playa de San Juan beach is approximately 360 metres long. Playa de Las Salinas is in Playa de San Juan; there, lava-formed rock formations create small natural bathing areas. Two different features therefore shape the coastal scenery: the approximate length of the beach and the shaped rocks with their small bathing areas. When deciding on the coastal focus of your trip, you can consider whether you would rather focus on the length of a beach or the character of a coastal spot. Both provide different points of reference for planning a seaside stay.

Promenade, Coastal Path and Sailing

The Paseo Marítimo Playa de San Juan is paved, and you can skate on the promenade, among other activities. Along the Acantilados de Isorana, a coastal path offers opportunities for walks and for exploring small coves between the cliffs. Check access conditions for individual paths locally. The two options offer different experiences: you can skate on the promenade, while the coastal path invites you to walk and explore small coves.

The Escuela Municipal de Deportes Náuticos de Guía de Isora is located in Playa de San Juan and offers beginner and advanced sailing courses. The two course levels help you take your own experience into account when planning. A sailing course offers a different focus from skating on the promenade or walking along the coastal path. If sailing is part of your trip, you can therefore consider it as a separate element of your plans.

Local History and Fish on the Promenade

The Horno de cal de Playa de San Juan lime kiln played an important role in producing lime for construction work in the municipality. This connection with lime production adds an aspect of local and building history to the coastal themes. Restaurants on the Playa de San Juan promenade serve various kinds of fish. This adds a specific culinary element to your travel plans, alongside coastal scenery and sport. History and the range of fish dishes appeal to different interests, which you can weigh separately when planning your stay.

Practical Information

For car journeys, there are free parking areas near the Playa de San Juan promenade and at the fishing and sports harbour. Availability may vary by season. Check the current parking situation before you set off, and do not count on a particular space being available. This is especially useful if the promenade or harbour is part of your plans for the day.

When looking for hotels, you can take the character of the town into account. First consider whether coastal scenery, activities, sailing or local history matters most to you. Then compare specific hotel offers based on your personal criteria.
