Tip Of The Day: Head To Salinetas Beach For A Taste Of East Gran Canaria

Salinetas is East Gran Canaria's prettiest beach Salinetas is East Gran Canaria's prettiest beach www.photosgrancanaria.com

Gran Canaria's east coast beaches are a mixed bag with everything from windswept pebble beaches to sheltered coves with golden sand. Salinetas beach is the prettiest and most accessible of the east beaches.

With fine sand, a pretty promenade, calm water and plenty of rock pools for the kids, Salinetas beach is an ideal spot for a beach stop in east Gran Canaria. Parking on weekdays in easy on the street just behind the beach. The only downside is that Salinetas beach is a bit short of food options. However, you are just 10 minutes walk south of Melenara beach with its famous seafood restaurants (some do pizza as well). 

Salinetas beach is sunny most days and although it can be windy during the summer, it's the most sheltered of east Gran Canaria's beaches.

  • The Best Gran Canaria Weather Forecast
    The Best Gran Canaria Weather Forecast

    The single most common question we get in the Gran Canaria Info group is...

    What is the weather going to be like during my holiday?

    The answer is almost always the same: If you are going to south Gran Canaria's resorts, it is very likely to be sunny every day. Yes, even in the winter. Yes, even though your weather app says it is going to be cloudy. Yes, even in January. And in February, etc.

    Obviously it does sometimes rain in Gran Canaria, even in the sun-baked south, and there are occassional cloudy days. 

    To check for these rare rain and clouds there is no point using generic weather apps because they use data that averages out the weather and temperature across Gran Canaria.

    This means that the forecast for Puerto Rico and other resorts includes weather and temperatrure predictions for inland and highland areas that are cooler and cloudier.

    So, instead of believing your current weather app use the Spanish weather service website called the AEMET. It's website has detailed and very accurate forecasts for individual resorts, town and even beaches.

    Here's the forecast for the Mogán area including Puerto Rico.

    The mobile website works very well in English although the app is only in Spanish at the moment.
