Agaete, the Measure of Beauty in Gran Canaria

The World Tourism Organization (UN Tourism) names the Gran Canaria municipality the Best Tourism Village 2025.

Agaete is a verse by Tomás Morales, a brushstroke from a luminous painting by Pepe Dámaso, the sound of oars slicing through the ocean waters. It is the early-morning crack of a firework, the cheerful bustle of music and papagüevos, a sunset gazing towards Mount Teide. It is a play of colours that changes every day, the Faneque cliff rising over the Atlantic; it is the sea, the trace of an ancient aboriginal culture, Malpaís and Maipés. It is a lush valley, it is coffee, mango, orange and papaya; it is fish, it is the crab that peeks out as the waves break. It is El Juncal, the devotion to the Flemish painting of the Virgin of Las Nieves, it is Faneroque, Antigafo, El Risco – and the majesty, energy and magic of Guayedra Beach.

Playa de Arinaga, a marine stage

Playa de Arinaga, in Gran Canaria, is an invitation to enjoy life by the always open stage of blue.

Years ago, the days in Arinaga started with the sound of the depths. Literally. Very early, sometimes just at dawn, fishermen announced their return to the shores blowing their bucios, the big sea shells so abundant on the surrounding sea bed. They did so hours after leaving on their rowing boats to try their luck on the crystal-clear and bountiful waters of this part of the coast of Gran Canaria.
