In the northeast of the island of Gran Canaria, within the city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, lies one of the most famous urban beaches in Europe: Las Canteras. This honour is due not only to its natural charms, but also to the quality of its services and its lively avenue, right in the heart of the city. In Las Canteras you can enjoy a pleasant climate and calm waters all year round. Its emblematic beach bar acts as a natural breakwater and offers multiple areas full of marine life, ideal for snorkelling.

Las Canteras is an ideal beach for long walks thanks to its more than two kilometres of golden sand. During the day, you can enjoy the sun next to sand sculptures, after renting sun loungers and parasols, or go surfing at its southern end.
