Los Charcones Natural Pools

An unforgettable natural pool in Gran Canaria

Much larger than it looks from the start of the access walk, this large and pretty double pool located in the Arucas municipality of North Gran Canaria guarantees calm bathing by the Atlantic Ocean. From above it is shaped like a person carved into the rock by the gods.

Large natural pool in north Gran Canaria

Close to the main road and several towns this bathing pool has parking and a full range of services including sunbathing terraces, restaurants and plenty of bathrooms. The outer wall is ideal for walking along at low tide and its little pools and inlets add interest. A wide fringe of rocks protects it from the booming Atlantic waves and its uncanny human form is so convincing that it seems to be telling you to stop and visit.

Sostenibilidad
- 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 water.
- 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.
- Try to use ocean- friendly sun creams.
- Try not to alter the peace of the environment with excessive noise (loud music, yelling, etc.) or activities that might be bothersome, such as ball games.
- Pets are prohibited at many natural pools. Make sure you can take them beforehand.
