Playa de Tiritaña, is one of the "natural" beaches between Tauro and Puerto de Mogan in the south-west of the island of Gran Canaria.
A thoroughly natural and unspoiled beach, it is a popular spot for naturists. It lies in a bay framed by high cliffs. This dark sandy beach is enjoyed especially by wild camping enthusiasts.
Unfortunately this beach can be very dirty in some places which has a negative effect on the landscape. Be careful when bathing, as there is a strong undertow pulling you out to sea.
