Bodyboard in Gran Canaria

Why so many people are crazy about bodyboard in Gran Canaria? The answer is simple. In Gran Canaria, great places to  bodyboard are right on your doorstep. The good year-round climate and the vast number of beaches along the coastline mean that kids start surfing very young. For youngsters, bodyboarding has become a type of common sport on the island.

Waves.... Gran Canaria can provide you with all types, such as the “Confital right” in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. It even manages to surprise surfers from outside the island, although you can also try your luck in Arguineguín, in the south or in Lloret (La Cícer), in the capital.

The Island’s north coast is also a haven for surfers and bodyboarders. You’ll find good waves in Puertillo de Arucas, which is another key spot. Why are the waves so special in Gran Canaria? Those in the know would tell you that the Island’s waves are ‘powerful’ because the waves reach the coastline from a great depth.
