The coast of Gran Canaria

Throughout our guide of beaches of Gran Canaria you will notice how the beaches of each municipality vary. If we go to Telde, the beaches are small, cove type and mostly with dark sand, most of them for diving lovers. In Arinaga they are usually more windy and with golden sand or boulders, perfect for windsurfing. On the other hand, if we go to the area of San Bartolomé de Tirajana we find kilometers of golden sand, calm waters and very tourist areas. In the municipality of Gáldar, on the other hand, we have clear water coves and a wide range of natural pools in a 100% local environment. Here we also mention all the beaches of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, which is more special.

If you are a sea and beach lover and you like to discover the places you visit on your own, this is your guide. You can choose neither more nor less than among 80 options for sunbathing and enjoying the Atlantic Ocean. In addition, the best of all is that in this guide there are beaches that not even many residents know, nor do they appear in the typical guides.
