The Playa Del Matorral Lighthouse serves as a warning to ships as well as an indication of the division between the naturists and non-naturists sections of the beach.
The northern part of the beach has more naturists while the southern part is used frequently by non-naturists.
Playa de Sotavento
The Playa de Sotavento, known as the leeward beach, is home to the Reni Egli Center where kite boarders and windsurfers practice their skills. Located in the southern peninsula of Jandia , the Sotavento coast has the most extensive stretch of white-sanded beaches in the Canary Islands.
The turquoise water of this coast makes it an ideal area for scuba diving, swimming, deep-sea fishing and wind surfing.
Included in the Sotavento Coast are the beaches of Esquinzo, Sotavento, Butihondo, El Matorral and Mal Nombre while extending to the Calma Coast up to the Morro Jable.
Playa De Barlovento
The Playa de Barlovento , known as the windward beach, as well as the Playa de Cofete are less accessible to the public and have wilder sea conditions.
These wild beaches combined with strong wind make it an ideal area for professional water sports enthusiasts. However, beginners and professional scuba divers, wind surfers and swimmers are required to follow safety precautions at all times.
