Pozo Izquierdo, Olive sand and shingle beach in Santa Lucía de Tirajana, Spain
The 1280-meter stretch of coastline combines olive-colored sand with rounded stones, bordered by the eastern waters of Gran Canaria island.
The beach name originates from a salt water well where local farmers brought their cattle to drink during the pre-Hispanic period.
The Professional Windsurfers Association has designated this location as an official competition site since 1988, drawing international athletes annually.
The beach features multiple windsurfing schools, equipment rental facilities, and clear markers from the GC-1 motorway for simplified access.
Trade winds create constant water conditions that attract professional windsurfers for freestyle, wave, and slalom competitions throughout July.
