It’s safe to say that the most attractive and popular beaches in Gran Canaria are located in Maspalomas. The total length of the resort’s beaches is approximately 17 kilometers. Conventionally, the coastline is separated into several areas, each of which has its own advantages and peculiarities. Coastal areas surrounded by beautiful sand dunes are the most interesting. Local beaches also have everything needed for sports entertainment and families with children.
Fans of surfing, as a rule, are in love with Playa del Aguila . This beach has virtually ideal conditions for sports activities, but it’s not the best choice for swimming. Water sports fans mention that winter is the best time for training because weather conditions are the most optimal during this part of the year. Those, who only start mastering the basics of surfing, will virtually fall in love with surfing centers open on the seaside.
Older travelers and tourists with children are usually fond of another beach - Playa de San Agustin . Big waves and strong wind are rare guests on this part of the coastline. Louds bars and nightclubs are not present on Playa de San Agustin as well. It’s the best choice for visitors who wish to sunbathe in the atmosphere of relaxation and harmony. The beach has a well-developed infrastructure. There are also several charming restaurants nearby. It’s important to mention that Playa de San Agustin is quite a large beach, so it is not hard to find a free sport even during the high season. There is a rocky cape on the distant part of the beach. This cape separates Playa de San Agustin from another charming beach - Playa de las Burras that is famous for its grey sand.
