About

Playa del Viento is located on the North Atlantic Ocean (part of Atlantic ocean) and it is in the 155th place out of 277 beaches in the Las Palmas region 99.9 km away from its center, the city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. It is one of the beaches of Casas de Gran Valle settlement, just 4.3 km from its center. The beach is located in a natural place, surrounded by the cliffs. This beach is not a well-known place, so it is well suited for a relaxing leisure.

It is a small bay with crystal turquoise water and bright sand, so you don't need special shoes. The sharpness of entering the water is quite normal. This beach is suitable for different categories of people, lonely travellers, relaxation getaway lovers, hikers etc. It is almost deserted place even during the high season.

Playa del Viento coast is free for all. It has no amenities, only nature. .

In addition to swimming and sunbathing, you can also take part in other activities.

To get to the beach, you need to walk along a mountain trail more than 1km long.

7 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Playa Juan Gomez, which has a rating of 7.7.

Playa del Viento (Las Palmas) region (Jandia sub-region) is located outside the Casas de Gran Valle settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the coast of the Fuerteventura, but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone.

We stumbled upon the beach by chance and were amazed by what we saw. It was a beautiful combination of white and black sand, along with volcanic stones. If you head towards the right, you'll discover some truly unique coves to explore.

It's a stunning location with hardly any people around, and it's usually quite windy, which is why it's called that way.

This beach is a great spot for fishing, as long as the wind doesn't blow in the wrong direction and the tide is low, you'll find a sandy beach.

The beach is a small area with rocks. It's not particularly remarkable, but it wasn't crowded. It's easily accessible by any type of car and quite windy. It's interesting to spot goats and sheep along the way.
