A while back I wrote about this village in the north of Gran Canary Island… well actually, I wrote about its church San Juan Bautista de Arucas.
This is the second time I have visited this village and it doesn’t cease to amaze me. Not only for its urban area, which by-the-way, has been declared of historical interest, but also because of its people, its lovely spots and of course, the views from the Mountain of Arucas.
I recommend you visit it taking your time to see all the village of Arucas, but if you don’t have much time, then prioritise. What I did was: visit San Juan Bautista, the Municipal Park of Arucas and then I walked up the Mountain of Arucas.

Beaches: Anfi del Mar

The Island of Gran Canaria has a huge number of beaches, some of which are natural and others are artificial; but one thing stands out: they each have their own particular charm.
One of these beaches lies SW of the island, between Puerto Rico and Arguineguín. Anfi del Mar is a beautiful, quiet, artificial beach.
This beach is not very long, but its white sands and crystal clear waters make it almost dreamlike… it looks just like the Caribbean.
If you visit Anfi del Mar, don’t just stay on the beach, go for a walk too around the area; it’s a very special place.

About a year ago when I first started this blog, I wrote about a couple of places on The Island of Gran Canaria: La Playa de Maspalomas y San Juan de Arucas.
Now that Turismo Natural is almost one year old, we return to The Island of Gran Canaria, as I just recently spent my holidays in Palmas de Gran Canaria. Of course, I shall suggest different places you can visit if you have the chance to travel to the island.
In the following articles you will find out about: beaches, natural monuments, cities… This island is quite complete, which means we can do different types of tourism.

One of our main worries when we set off on holidays, weekends, bank holidays…is the traffic on the road, traffic jams, road-works, accidents, etc.
Well, to avoid all these problems here is a link you might like which you can also find amongst our website friends list: Traffic Map.
You’ll find that Traffic Map is very useful; you’ll have a much smoother journey by being able to choose the best route for you.

El otro día navegando por Internet me encontré con la web del Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores y de Cooperación, donde vi una información que considero muy importante para organizar nuestros viajes al extranjero.
El Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores y de Cooperación nos proporciona una serie de recomendaciones, que como decía anteriormente, son muy útiles a la hora de organizar nuestras vacaciones fuera de España (habiendo consejos para cada país): llevar la documentación necesaria, evitar que nos roben esta documentación y los billetes de viaje, facilitar a alguna persona cercana el itinerario del tour, anotar el teléfono de la Embajada o Consulado de España en el país de destino, etc. Leer más »
