Las Canteras - NORTH

Las Canteras is one of the most beautiful city beaches in the world. In this beach, good weather reigns almost all year round, therefore, the ideal place where, in addition to spending hours lying on the splendid golden sand, many water and non-water sports activities take place: Sup, Canoe and Kayak, swimming, diving, kite surfing and, above all, night diving and snorkelling.

 

In fact, there are ideal conditions especially when the tide and the  "La Barra", a long volcanic rock formation, which rises not far from the beach, emerging, makes the Playa, the largest marine aquarium ever seen where thousands of fish of various species will swim next to it, close to hand.

Playa del Inglès

Playa del Ingles, is  one of the busiest and busiest beaches in Gran Canaria.  It is a perfect beach for the little ones, being  very large, and having protected and safe areas where children can be free and have fun alone.  Also, there are tons of shops and services around  surroundings.

 

Surfers reign in the most secluded and less crowded area, where the nudist area begins and there are people who want to sunbathe in absolute tranquility. Ultimately this place hides a myriad of opportunities to spend a perfect day on the beach.

Playa Amadores

It is one of the most famous and beautiful beaches in the south of Gran Canaria. Characterized by crystal clear water and very soft white sand, you can enjoy in total relaxation, a fresh cerveza or taste the local bocadillos bought in one of the many beach bars and restaurants, at reasonable prices.

 

The beach is very wide and you can comfortably settle both on the shore and on the sun loungers for rent for a few euros. Las Amadores, is located between Puerto Rico and Puerto de Mogan, two other beautiful locations with equally beautiful beaches, and has received the Blue Flag recognition.
