Benijo beach is a wild beach located on the coast of the hamlet that gives it its name, north of the Anaga, district in the vicinity of the village of Taganana, to which it belongs, in the municipality of Santa Cruz de Tenerife.

is one of the most spectacular beaches you can find in Tenerife, is a totally magical place that represents the essence of volcanic origin of the island, as the beach is black sand, is surrounded by huge mountains, bathed by the ocean and every sunset are drawn in the sky hundreds of colors that seem to come out of an idyllic fantasy landscape.

Benijo is not the typical Tenerife beach, those you’re used to seeing crowded with tourists, umbrellas and restaurants nearby. Benijo has no promenades or tourist attractions, just some stairs that take the breath away even for the fit and lead to an almost deserted paradise. This beach is not easily accessible, perhaps that’s why it still retains its essence and is not so crowded.

The beach is surrounded by a spectacular landscape, in which the famous Roques de Anaga are protagonists.
