Spain La Fajana, Piscinas de la Fajana, Punta del Corcho
La Fajana is located in the north of the island of La Palma (Canary Islands) and can be easily reached by car, with parking being accessible and free.
I have attached 3 images, one of which (the one with the lighthouse) is to the east, and the other two to the west. I did not consider it necessary to add another location, so the exact places from which I took the images are a little different, but not further than 50 meters from the location pin that I placed on the map.
The location is worth visiting because you can make many compositions and probably if you take two images from the same place an hour apart, both the ocean and the sky will look different. From the parking lot you can explore the area and, if you are passionate about landscape photography, you will probably spend a few hours there.
I would say that the best times of the day for photography would be sunrise and sunset, but I think that you can take good photos at any time.

Photography Tips
Any camera lens will do. Since it is almost impossible not to find waves and clouds, I would recommend a tripod and some filters (ND and polarizing) for a different perspective.
Although not strictly related to photography, my advice is to wear a hat. I managed to get a sunstroke and some sunburn even though the sun stayed behind the clouds and I didn't consider it necessary to protect myself. Now it sounds funny, but it wasn't :)

Travel Information
I think I covered this part in the description above. What I didn't mention is that the drive takes about 45 minutes if you leave from Santa Cruz.
