La Caleta is a small seafront village in Adeje, on Tenerife's south-west coast, where the beach is a pebble beach 60 metres long and 20 metres wide, according to Spain's national tourist office. It is semi-urban, so it is a place for a swim, a walk along the bay and a seafood lunch rather than a long day on sand. The longer beach nearby is La Enramada, at 325 metres.

For the protected site, the tourist board says to park in the village and reach it by the path.
