Windsurfing at Salinas de Pozo

Great surfing atmosphere in Gran Canaria

The Salinas de Pozo windsurf spot is in Santa Lucia in southeast Gran Canaria. It’s popular amongst proficient and medium-level windsurfers thanks to its excellent wave sailing conditions. The area is windy and dangerous for swimmers so its almost exclusively frequented by windsurfers. There are a range of peaks and waves with walls along the Salinas del Pozo coast and the wind is N - NE on shore.

A year-round windsurfing spot

Entry at En Salinas de Pozo is tricky, especially at high tide, due to the powerful wave break. The shore is pebbly and the bottom rocky. Salinas de Pozo is at its best from April to September, according to the locals, but is surfable all year round.

  • Never leave waste of any type lying around, including cigarette butts. Leftover food leads to a proliferation of rats and wild cats, which pose a serious threat to the fauna.
  • 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.
  • 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'.
  • Try to use ocean- friendly sun creams.
