Brilliant place to stay/visit. I went first aug/sep 2008 and then again june/july 2009. It is a fantastic family area, very tenerifian with all the familys going there at the weekends thats when it can get busy. to the top end is a brilliant bar the shack right next to the windsurfing facillities. would recommend to all ages. clean, safe,... more

El Medano beach is great. it is selcluded and there are a few VERY private bays over the hills, Nudity very common and there are not any of the gawpers. It is a great beach. There is sand for the sand lovers and thare are plenty of rocks to lay on. Good Luck Colin and Heather more

El Medano beach is great. We went to the west side of Montana Roja. Nudity is widely practiced on this beach. The next people to us were a good 20-30m away, so as you can see its not crowded. Better bring water, umberella etc... with you as there are no facilities out that end. Get the togs off and enjoy. more
