Playa de Las Carpinteras is one of Gran Canaria's truly natural and unspoiled beaches. This wild, romantic rocky landscape is surrounded by a cliff backdrop.
There are separate little coves you can bathe and sunbathe nude. Sporty types can go snorkeling in the clear water discovering all the marine life. Controlled camping is allowed in the vicinity of the beach, although permission is required from the City Council.
