The Dunes and Beach of Maspalomas are a surprising sight and something not seen every day. Get lost in the dramatic sweeping dunes, walking along their crest of in the valleys between only to find before you a beautiful beach with inviting waters, even in December I was able to spend 45 minutes in the water! Key Points: 1) Bring Sunblock and Water. Not a lot of shade in the area and you don't want to wait for hours in lines a the drink shacks. 2) Dunes are gorgeous and fun. Have fun, try running down the dunes and jumping by the edge! 3) Be careful of the rip-tide. Maspalomas beach is a place where currents intersect. On some days the riptide is enough to carry you away even if you're in knee-high water. 4) Not a nude beach, specifically. But plenty of nude people. However, people are comfortable is how they do the beach there.

Had a fantastic holiday over Christmas with husband, son (23) and daughter(18) weather was perfect for us around 23 Celsius each day....Agustin was great as a base, we had a car so we were always out and about. The best restaurant in Agustin was “Time” beautiful restaurant, professional yet friendly staff and amazing food .... Holiday world was a fun place to visit in the evening, bowling, pool, ping pong and a small fair with carousel, roller coaster, pirate ship, bumper cars.....very modern, clean simply wonderful entertainment - lots and lots to do on Gran Canaria, had such a fab time we are planning to return next Christmas

Great sandy beach with official Croix Roja De Espana Lifeguard on duty. Lots of bars and restaurants and a few shops on the Promenade, all excellent and a great location. Lots of children in the water, so I guess it is as safe as anywhere. Spent many happy hours down here
5. Playa de Veril

For those visitors who wish to avoid the glut of sunbathers on the great Playa del Inglés and Maspalomas beaches, this rather secluded beach which links Burras with the other two beaches mentioned. The Veril area is fairly protected from the worst winds although we were quite unlucky in this respect. But the beach is impeccably well maintained by the local council and so it is a clean, pleasant spot for a swim and snooze in the sun. If you remembered your parasol and sun cream, you can also work your way through a major Russian novel on these precious sands. Enjoy!

Reviewed By Crawford49 - Doncaster, United Kingdom
This resort caters well for the middle aged and older people as it has a great beach for long walks, really interesting dunes, lots of cafes and bars. It is reasonably quiet but one shopping centre at Yumba is more lively. We would recommend this to others
7. Playa Nudista Montana Arena
8. Playa Del Aguila
