Stop #1: La Garita

Bus stop: Palmera street. In front of the roundabout next to the skate park.

It is a seaside place in Telde. The dark sandy beach is aproximately 250 metres long where it is not advisable to swim because of the strong waves.

There is a big avenue which connects with other beaches such as “Pozuelo” and “Playa del hombre”. On our way to Pozuelo, it can be found a basalto formation. Basalto is a kind of rock created from the lava which came out of the ocean. Made of that stone, it is the “bufadero”. It is a deep hole in the stone connected to the ocean through the water goes back and forth.

In la Garita, you can find many fresh fish restaurants and bars. There you can relax as you see the surfers riding the waves.
