Los Charcones

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.
