Las Alcaravaneras Beach

A kilometre long beach in Gran Canaria

The second longest beach in the capital, with just over a kilometer long and almost a hundred wide, extends on the east side of the municipality. Before one of the vital infrastructures of the city, the Port, this beach is characterized for being a much more familiar and neighborly destination than Las Canteras, with more tourist projection.

A beach for sporty people

The nearby docks turn the waters of the bay that bathe Las Alcaravaneras into a serene paradise where all kinds of water sports such as canoeing, paddle surfing or sailing can be practiced. Sporting events such as beach volleyball, beach tennis and soccer are also regularly held on the sand. Equipped with a spa and lifeguard as well as lifeguard services, Las Alcaravaneras also has a promenade next to the sand where there are several leisure and restaurant establishments.

Sustainability

Never leave waste of any type lying around, including cigarette butts. Leftover food leads to a proliferation of rats and wild cats.
Do not throw any waste or other objects into the sea.
Respect the animals. Do not bother them or feed them. If you see an injured specimen, you can call the emergency number: 112. Do not pick flowers or plants from the environment.
Do not pick up or take away stones or any other item from the natural environment. And do not move them to pile them up into sadly famous 'towers'.
Do not use soap or gel in the showers located at the entrance to the beach.
Try to use ocean-friendly sun creams.
Pets are prohibited at most beaches. Make sure you can take them beforehand.
Try not to alter the peace of the environment with excessive noise (loud music, yelling, etc.) or activities that might be bothersome, such as ball games.
