Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Punta de Galdar (Gran Canaria) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Punta de Galdar (Gran Canaria) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Punta de Galdar for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.

The beach may lack sand, but the views it offers are truly spectacular and it's far more secluded than other beaches. The natural swimming pool is really a sight to behold!

I'll never forget this incredible beach experience! It was truly remarkable and unforgettable. The pristine blue waters and pristine white sand were a sight to behold. The atmosphere was so peaceful and serene, and the sound of the waves crashing against the shore was mesmerizing. I'm so glad I got to experience this beautiful beach.
