Playa del Cabezo (El Médano)
Tenerife's best-known dog beach, a golden-sand stretch in El Médano below the volcanic Montaña Roja. Designated for dogs, it is a hub for kitesurf and windsurf thanks to its reliable wind, and gives leashed dogs space to enjoy the Atlantic year-round. Always confirm the current Ayuntamiento designation and any seasonal rules on the spot.
Normas: Designated dog beach; keep dogs leashed where signed, pick up waste, and keep clear of kite launch and landing corridors. Potentially dangerous breeds must be muzzled in public.
