Playa de los Roques
@vacaykatie
⚠️⚠️⚠️ Check information on google maps - at the end of 2023 the beach was temporarily closed because of a danger of falling rocks. Some people don’t care and still go down the path. But the beach is even worth the view from the top!

Playa Castro
@vacaykatie
A tiny waterfall - but you can’t come closer when the tide is high (and if you want to follow the signs)

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Vacay Katie
Hi, I'm Katie, an European on a mission to see the world - and then share it with you! I've seen *almost* the entire Europe and last year left the "safer" destinations and traveled farther from home: to Vietnam, Jordan and Mexico.
Important facts about me:
༄ My home base is Poland
༄ I've visited 29 countries
༄ Not sure how relevant that is but I can sing in 17 languages
༄ I'm extremely honest - so if a place/tour/restaurant sucked, I'm going to tell you
༄ I love both famous sites and underrated, unique hidden gems - so in my guides I'll feature both so that you can choose whatever you prefer
