Is the beach good for sunbathing?

La Furnia o El Clavo (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 La Furnia o El Clavo (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 La Furnia o El Clavo 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.

6 Pleasant

This place is a great option for families, especially those with children, as it offers a safe, accessible bathing experience. Despite being quite deep, even at low tide, it is possible to bathe with minimal difficulty. Moreover, it remains relatively deserted even in peak season, meaning that you can enjoy the beach without the crowds. Unfortunately, there is no ramp for people with disabilities, so access is limited to stairs.

The place was stunning! Unfortunately, the dirt and bad smell were too much for us to bear, so we couldn't take a dip. However, the views were beautiful and the atmosphere was peaceful. Plus, the beach had a natural pool which added to its charm.

The waves were more intense than what we were used to, making it difficult to swim. Despite this, the natural pool was still a pleasant sight to behold.

Galdar's northern Natural Pool is the perfect spot to spend a few hours. Visit after 3pm when the tide is low, and don't forget to bring an umbrella - just make sure the base is filled with water or sand, as there is no sand on the beach, only rocks and cement.

I absolutely love this beach on the north side of the island! The natural pool is simply incredible and the view is breathtaking. I was even lucky enough to spot a baby octopus!
