La Cicer, Urban beach in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain
La Cicer is a 520 meter stretch of beach at the western end of Las Canteras, featuring dark olive-colored sand and moderate waves suitable for water activities. The shoreline includes showers, waste bins, and cleaning services for visitor convenience.
This section developed from a natural coastline into an urban recreational space following the construction of the Alfredo Kraus Auditorium in the late 20th century. The development transformed it into a popular gathering place for the surrounding neighborhood.
The local surfing community is a defining presence here, with schools teaching water sports year-round to both newcomers and experienced riders. You can watch surfers of all levels working on their skills in the waves throughout the day.
Access to the beach is straightforward, with a shopping center located directly across the street for additional amenities. Plan your visit with tide and wave conditions in mind, as these affect the quality of water activities available.
The sand here shifts color intensity through tidal movements, creating dark patterns that stand in sharp contrast to the golden tone of the adjacent beach sections. These visual changes mean the beach looks different depending on when you visit throughout the day.
