Gran Canaria Tourist Guide

Beaches 03

The coastline along Gran Canaria is one of the preferred hotspots for tourists who choose to come to the island. The average yearly temperature of 24 degrees guarantees a long lasting experience at any of the beaches along the coast, most of which are easily accessible and apt for bathing. There are choices to suit all tastes. Tourists can choose from long stretches of golden sands, to tiny coves sheltered in the shadow of steeping cliffs, and areas reserved for nudists. Maspalomas and Playa del Inglés, at the natural area of Las Dunas, are the best known spots due to their wide range of accommodation and leisure and entertainment. Las Canteras is one of the finest urban beaches in Spain and the pride of the residents of the capital, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. One of the most delightful nightfalls to be had on the island is at Agaete, while the coast of Mogán is another ideal area to enjoy the sea thanks to the stability of the climate, famous around Europe for having over 330 sunny days a year.
