📍 Getting There

🚶Short walk to the beach

On every map you find Cotillo. From the airport you go via La Oliva, from Corralejo via Lajares. At the first and only `big` crossing you go left. The street turns into a path. The first locations are for surfers, go around 500m further and take one of the smaller accesses to the beaches.
