About the beach

Telde · Gran Canaria

Playa de La Garita is a dark-sand beach on the Telde coast, overlooked by a residential neighborhood featuring restaurants and a seaside promenade. Its compact size makes it a great stop along a coastal route. The appeal lies in the volcanic landscape and the lively seafront atmosphere, rather than the typical activities of large resorts. Its eastern exposure can bring wind and waves, so decide whether to swim based on the conditions at the time.
