Charco las Palomas

Charco las Palomas extends for 60 meters along the Gran Canaria coastline, featuring natural stone formations and clear ocean waters against volcanic cliffs.

Local fishermen have used this coastal area since the early settlements of Gran Canaria, establishing traditional fishing methods adapted to the rocky terrain.

The beach represents an integral part of Arucas maritime heritage, where residents gather during summer months to practice traditional fishing techniques.

Visitors can reach the beach by taking bus lines 105, 103, or 125 to Arucas, then following the coastal path that leads to the natural pools.

The natural pools formed within the rock structure fill and empty with each tide cycle, creating distinct swimming areas separated by volcanic formations.
