La Ballena beach in Rota is stunning. If you're looking for long walks, this is the perfect spot. There are several beach bars along the coastline where you can have a drink, lunch, or dinner, and both are highly recommended. You can also surf. The sunsets are spectacular. You can also cycle or exercise along the coastline. If you're traveling by car, be aware that there's an orange paid parking area between June 15th and September 15th. You can't walk your dog on the beach during these times. We know it's not a dog-friendly beach, but it would be great to be able to walk your pet early in the morning.
