Tarajalejo

Tarajalejo is made up of a wide valley covered with palm trees and an extensive beach of fine black sand sheltered from the wind. A village of seafaring traditions that remained unknown until its beautiful beach was discovered at the end of the sixties by lovers of tranquillity, sun and crystal clear waters.

Modern and comfortable tourist facilities have been built along the coast.

Its olava of fine black sand, a little more than a kilometre long, with little overcrowding, is ideal for water sports.
