Las Nieves Beach

A comfortable and accessible beach in Gran Canaria

Located in front of the old Algaete pier, this spot is made up of rounded stones and crystal clear water. It’s one of the few beaches in the municipality that can be easily accessed. The dimensions of the spot are 500 metres by 20 metres. Along the local promenade there are a wide variety of bars and restaurants to enjoy something to eat between swims.

Getting the ferry to the beach

If you come to this beach, you’ll find amazing, undiscovered corners. Standout local spots include the old town and the Hermitage of the Virgen de las Nieves. The best ways for visitors to travel around is on foot or by bicycle. For extra excitement you can take a ferry service directly to the port of Las Nieves from the neighbouring island of Tenerife.

  • Never leave waste of any type lying around, including cigarette butts. Leftover food leads to a proliferation of rats and wild cats.
  • Do not throw any waste or other objects into the sea.
  • Respect the animals. Do not bother them or feed them. If you see an injured specimen, you can call the emergency number: 112. Do not pick flowers or plants from the environment.
  • Do not pick up or take away stones or any other item from the natural environment. And do not move them to pile them up into sadly famous 'towers'.
  • Do not use soap or gel in the showers located at the entrance to the beach.
  • Try to use ocean-friendly sun creams.
  • Pets are prohibited at most beaches. Make sure you can take them beforehand.
