That place is an ideal spot for an early morning stroll or a day of fun in the sun. With its crystal clear waters and gentle waves, it's the perfect place to catch a few waves or just relax. Despite the strong currents, it's a great spot to spend a day and take in the beauty of the ocean.

That place in Galdar is an excellent place to hang out and have fun with friends and family. Swimming is allowed here and there are private boat owners who can take you out to sea for a great experience. The beach has golden sand, making it a great place to relax and unwind. There is plenty of space for parking and many restaurants nearby for drinks and refreshments. Summertime can be quite crowded, but it's still a great place to visit. Highly recommended, this beach is definitely worth a visit!

The beach in the north of Gran Canaria may not be the ideal spot to visit. The strong winds make it an unpleasant experience and it's far from the ideal place to spend time with family or friends.
