Playa del Matorral is the main beach here and it’s magnificent, stretching eastwards for over 4km from Morro Jable. A family-friendly beach, it’s great for indulging in a variety of water sports, churning a pedalo or just collapsing on the sand. It rarely gets crowded, but for true solitude head for the beaches 7km further east, which are accessible only with your own transport.
