Is Las Playas a good beach for children?

Does Las Playas have a Blue Flag?

No. Las Playas is not listed with a Blue Flag in the MITECO data. The nearest Blue Flag beach is La Restinga (El Pinar de El Hierro), 9 km away in a straight line. Without a flag, Las Playas can be just as good: the label measures services and water quality, not looks.
