Towers of San Matías Church in Artenara, with Roque Nublo in the background

The towers of Artenara gaze upon those of Gran Canaria

There are four towers that gaze skywards while blurring the boundaries between sky and earth on the summit of Gran Canaria.

These stone beacons catch the eye and draw it upwards, with the insistence of a child and the perseverance of centuries. They point to the obvious. The uninterrupted blue and the pine forests at their feet. But they also reveal a reality that escapes the eye at first glance. It is the passage of time and the stories of those who have lived and continue to live on the border between two worlds.

Las Burras Beach and San Agustín Promenade

Walking Along the Ocean in Gran Canaria

The promenade between the beaches of Las Burras and San Agustín offers panoramic views and also captures the essence of the southern coastline.

The colossal and the minute coexist in the views from the promenade linking the beaches of Las Burras and San Agustín in the south of Gran Canaria. Your gaze is likely to be drawn first to the imposing presence of the Atlantic, which here appears immense and thunderous as it crashes against the coast. The tip of Maspalomas and the dunes can be glimpsed in the distance, towards the west. They form a winding golden outline that frames the scene.
