In the past we talked about the beaches that allow the access to dogs in Lanzarote. Today as Canarian Transfer it’s time to talk about beaches for dogs in Gran Canaria. 

Beaches for dogs in Gran Canaria

Gran Canaria is one among the most touristic destinations in Spain and in Europe. Each year, many visitors choose it for its complete offer of culture, sun and beach.

For all those who were wondering if the destination was appropriate to travel with dogs…of course! Who will visit the island, will have the chance to enjoy 3 beaches for dogs in Gran Canaria.

Playa de Bocabarranco

The first beach for dogs in Gran Canaria is Playa de Bocabarranco. A pro is that it’s  not a popular beach because there are big waves. So it’s quiet and the zone is suitable for dogs the entire year.

This beach with a curious name, belongs to the zone of Telde and it’s very close to the capital, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. To be more accurate, it’s ubicated in the Jinámar Valley and it counts on more than 6000 squared meters of beach and aprox. 1 Km longitude. It’s the biggest beach for dogs of the island.

Playa de los Tres Peos

Also the second beach for dogs in Gran Canaria has an original name. It’s located in the municipality of Agüimes  and it offers to the visitors zones of sandy beach and others with rocks.

The dimension is quite reduced, with just 300 metres of beach. The big difference with Bocabarranco is that it does not offer services to the visitors and according to the zone, the access to the beach is quite difficult.

It’s possible to visit it all the year long but you have to be careful, due to the strong streams that can scare pets and owners.

Playa de los Cuervitos

Very close to the Tres Peos beach, in Agüimes, there is  Playa de los Cuervitos. It’s a quite rocky beach without services.

It’s a very calm bay, probably because it’s difficult to get there. It’s possible to visit it all the year long with dogs.

Basic rules by the beaches for dogs in Gran Canaria

In case of dangerous races, dogs should wear their strup and muzzle. They should also have all the required vaccines, be dewormed and well identified.

Owners should respect the quiet of the other visitors and keep the zone cleaned.
