Home to Amadores Beach
History
Unlike the naturally occurring beaches on Gran Canaria the
sands at Amadores Beach are in fact not natural sand at all,
but are created specifically for recreation out of crushed
corals.
Built more than 12 years ago the area was once just part
of the open coastline with no significant sands. But
building breakwaters on the north and south created an
partially enclosed area protected from natural waves and
storms.
Filled with fine white sand, and backed by green gardens
it is without doubt the nicest and safest beach on the
island.
Protected by shark nets strung across the bay and with a
pier built in 2005 for reaching water sports crafts it
is a must see destination.
