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.

Arinaga´s old jetty

The municipality of Agüimes has recently opened a new bathing site to the public in the old jetty located in Arinaga, popularly known as Muelle Viejo. This jetty was built at the end of the 19th century and is considered of great historical and ethnographic value.

The Muelle Viejo is half hidden at the foot of the mountain where the current lighthouse stands, in Punta de Arinaga.
