Playa de Alojera is renowned for its dramatic landscape, where steep cliffs meet the dark, volcanic rocks and the Atlantic Ocean's powerful waves crash onto the shore.
The beach itself is a mix of stone and rock, making it a picturesque but rugged place to visit. While the sea here is often too rough for swimming, a small sheltered saltwater pool offers a safer alternative, although caution is advised even there, as waves can sometimes overwhelm it.
The village of Alojera, is perched on the mountainside above. This quaint village is home to a couple of small bars and restaurants, which also serve as mini-markets, providing a taste of local cuisine and the convenience of essential supplies.
One notable attraction in Alojera is the Casa de la Miel de Palma, an interpretation center dedicated to the history and production of palm honey, a unique product of La Gomera.
Despite its beauty, Playa de Alojera has its challenges. The beach's rocky nature makes it difficult to walk on without suitable footwear. Visitors should also be mindful of the sea conditions, as the waves and currents can be dangerous, especially during the winter.
Access to Playa de Alojera is via a good-quality road that takes about 20 minutes off the main GM-1 route, leading through the village of Alojera.
Parking is available near the beach, though spaces can become scarce in the summer months. Some visitors choose to park further up the cliff and walk down, although the absence of a dedicated pathway requires caution.
Amenities at Playa de Alojera are limited but sufficient for a day visit. Several holiday rentals are available for those looking to extend their visit, providing a unique opportunity to wake up to the sound of the waves and the spectacular sea views right from your balcony.
