Barronal Beach

Beach
62 km from Alhama

A wild dark-sand bay between Genoveses and Mónsul, enclosed by lava formations, low dunes and steppe vegetation.

Barronal preserves one of the wildest settings on the San José coast. Rich lava formations surround a broad dark-sand beach with no buildings or facilities.

The final approach is on foot from the Mónsul track. It is traditionally naturist, so bring water, shade and everything needed for the day.

Highlights

  1. Completely wild setting
  2. Lava formations
