Playa de Vagabundos

Playa de Vagabundos is a surf beach on the northwest coast of Gran Canaria with black sand and stones. The shoreline stretches around 450 meters and offers varied wave patterns suitable for different skill levels.

The beach on Gran Canaria's northern coast has remained in its natural state for decades. Since the 1970s it has been established as a classic surfing destination and a staple of the local scene.

The beach serves as a gathering point for surfers who share their passion and exchange knowledge about waves and techniques. The local surfing culture has shaped this place into a social hub for the community.

The beach is accessible via a marked exit from the GC-2 highway, with parking near the main entrance. At low tide, underwater formations create special conditions that affect how waves break.

The waves break both left and right due to an underwater formation located around 50 meters from shore. This feature makes the beach appealing for different surfing styles.
