Environment of the holiday home
The unburied treasure of the island’s capital is Playa de Las Canteras. It is the pearl that the city does not hide. A long strip of sand, several kilometers long, that stretches across the bay. A place with a special charm that you can find 34 blocks from the cruise terminal.
The residents of the city repeat that Las Canteras is one of the best urban beaches in the country. And they have reason to think so. Because it is a beach with good weather almost all year round. The place in the capital to escape, where all the clocks stop. A kind of Central Park beach version, where you can play sports any day of the week, wearing a swimsuit, bikinisurfboard.
In addition, it is a great reserve of marine life. Its sea beds are a refuge for a thousand types of fish. On land, the refuge for walkers, fishermen, surfers and surfers. And it has a special feature. That peculiarity is what the locals call "La Barra", a long rock formation that spreads out not far from the sand and protects a large part of the beach from the tides. A curious line of stone that makes the bay the best place on this side of the globe for swimming and allows bathers to walk on the water on low tide days.
And if you’re going to walk, we recommend the long walk that meanders continuously to the sand, avoiding cafes and ice cream parlors. At the beginning of the promenade you will find the terraces of La Puntilla and the fresh fish restaurants. At the other end of the beach, the surfer atmosphere around the Alfredo Kraus Auditorium, with more terraces and cafes facing the sea.
Although we must warn you, if you are planning to stay in the city for several days, forget about finding the beach on Wednesday that you saw on Monday.
That’s impossible! Because Las Canteras is the Changing Beach. It will never be the same place as the day before. It will be completely different. And that is another of its peculiarities. It always stays in the same place, but it always shows itself differently.
So now you know. We have hidden the treasure of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria 1 minute walk from the holiday home.
