"Great little location for relaxing and playing some football. There is a great little park right nearby. You can escape the wind by chilling in this location. Located between Puerto Del Carmen and Matagorda."

"Visited Christmasfair 2024, very nice to experience this first time."
Hara Bionsen
"This is a large area with seating, a cafe, a children's play area, a garden with cactus, aloe and some bourganvilia. The central circle is used for various functions, displays etc. It overlooks playa grande, a large mostly sandy beach. Could do with a little tlc, but still adds interest to a stroll along the promenade."
