Tufia beach is a stunning destination located on the eastern side of Gran Canaria. The village is known for its small white houses, while the beach is renowned for its black natural sand and dark-colored seabed due to lava. There's a large parking lot at the entrance of the village, but unfortunately there are no shops, cafes or restaurants in the village itself. rather small, measuring only 40 m, but even during high tide, visitors can enjoy the beautiful black lava shore or take a 10-minute walk to Aguadulce beach. Aguadulce is one of the most stunning beaches on the island, with its golden sand, but it doesn't quite have the charm of Tufia beach.

This fishing village may appear beautiful, but the authenticity of the area is likely fading away. If you're visiting Grand Canary, it's worth a look, but don't expect too much.

This quaint, little village has an atmosphere that's simply out of this world! The volcanic sand beach is a sight to behold - some homes are even built right into the rock! It's a must-see if you're looking for something truly unique.

Nestled just north of the airport, this hidden gem is the perfect escape. With its breathtakingly beautiful bay, it's a great spot for snorkeling. But don't forget to bring your own food and water - there aren't any facilities, shops, or restaurants here. This picturesque little village is a must-see, and it's only minutes away from the GC 1.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Tufia beach (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 Tufia beach (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 Tufia beach 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.
