Playa del Reducto

Immediately to the west of downtown Arrecife, the beautiful white sands of Playa del Reducto circle around shallows sheltered by a natural reef. Suitable for children to play in the gentle waves as a result, it has a Blue Flag award for its cleanliness and range of facilities.

The recently-renovated promenade behind the beach is the home of most of these facilities, including changing rooms, showers, bars and restaurants. Its right-hand side has a football pitch and volleyball court, while water sports available include stand-up paddleboards and windsurf sails.

 Lifeguards are on duty throughout the year, keeping an eye on its 500 metre length. 

Shade is offered by sun loungers with umbrellas, as well as a double row of coconut palms.
