    Between the Las Terrazas Shopping Center and El Mirador, there is a corner that is a true treasure, the Jinamar Site of Scientific Interest, where Bocabarranco Beach is one of its jewels. It is not a beach that stands out for swimming, although it can deal with certain problems of dragging nautical debris, it stands out for its habitat, the typical coastal halophile.

    The beach is actually an alluvial ravine deposit made up mainly of gravel but also sand. It is inside the Jinámar Site of Scientific Interest (C-29), which was the subject of a landscape recovery effort that ended in 2012. It has about twenty parking spaces very close, in the SIC Jinámar Interpretation and Recovery Center, but if not , nearby and in the Las Terrazas shopping center itself there is abundant and free parking from which you can easily access and are also connected to the highway. It is windy, it is not suitable for bathing for this same reason, therefore, if you go to bathe you must be very careful because there are no guards or first aid station. There is a designated area for dogs, which makes it ideal for people with pets. You can also go with children, always ensuring that they do not bathe. It is signposted. I didn't like it as a beach for swimming, I would only go to take a pet, children for a walk or to disconnect.

    (Translated by Google) Bad beach where there are. Someone came up with it, as no one ever bathed, because of the amount of stones it has and the strong waves, which is why they put the red flag on it, when they were invented and never again They have removed, which could be for dogs, but for them it is also impossible to bathe.The star I give is for the large parking lot that it has, which if it could, did not give any.Congratulations to the City Council, Cabildo or whoever corresponds for their choice . (Original) Playa mala donde las haya.A alguien se le ocurrió,como no se bañaba nadie nunca,por la cantidad de piedras que tiene y el fuerte oleaje,razón por la cual,le pusieron la bandera roja,cuando se inventaron y nunca más se le han quitado,que podía ser para perros,pero para ellos también es imposible bañarse.La estrella que le doy es por el gran aparcamiento que tiene,que si pudiese,no le daba ninguna.Felicidades al Ayuntamiento,Cabildo o a quién corresponda por su elección.

    (Translated by Google) A little off ... but it's the only place in Gran Canaria where you can take dogs to the beach. It is shameful that as there are few spaces for our furry children. Civilizing canaries!! (Original) Un poco alejado ... pero es el único lugar en Gran Canaria donde puedes llevar perros a la playa. Es vergonzoso que haya tan pocos espacios para nuestros niños peludos. ¡Civiliza canarios!¡!

    (Translated by Google) This beach is dangerous to take the dog and enjoy a bath with your dog or with the family to see when we started to change the concept of beaches for dogs !! (Original) Esta playa es peligrosa para llevar al perro y disfrutar de un baño con tu perro o con la familia a ver cuando empezamos a cambiar el concepto de playas para perros !!

  • 5/5 JAVIER B. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Ideal for dogs to run through the sand and have fun with other dogs. It has easy access, since the road seems worse but once on the shore I liked it a lot. (Original) Ideal para que los perros corran por la arena y se diviertan con otros perros. Tiene fácil acceso, desde la carretera parece peor pero una vez en la orilla me gustó mucho.

    One of the few beaches of Gran Canaria where you can play with dog. Beautiful beach, however unsuitable for swimming (as always marked by a red flag). But if you want a chance to play on the beach or in the surf with your dog, you won't find a better spot.

  • 5/5 Dave L. 4 years ago on Google
    Beautiful beach! Lots of space and sunbeds €12 for 2 sunbeds and an umbrella for the day so not too steep! Plenty of cheap beer too but my advice on the cheap food is to not bother we had a burger and chips for 5.50 and it was not good! All the beachfront restaurants seem to be pretty much the same. Sea was a little chilly this time of year but its clean and a lovely beach. Recommended if you're in the Amadores.

  • 4/5 Melanie S. 4 years ago on Google • 49 reviews
    A beach where dogs are welcome. Strong waves, rocky and not the greatest view either. But you have peace and quiet because mass tourism prefers to grill somewhere else👍😉 So definitely 4⭐⭐⭐⭐ from me

  • 4/5 Susana_S Ferremi P. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It has a lot of dangerous waves and wind, but it is the ideal place to walk the dog while you disconnect listening to some music. When there is high tide I do not recommend it. (Original) Tiene mucho oleaje peligroso y viento, pero es el lugar ideal para pasear al perro mientras desconectas escuchando algo de música. Cuando hay marea alta no la recomiendo.

  • 5/5 Edgard M. 4 years ago on Google
    Beautiful beach, worth spending time here, clear water so clean you can see the small fish, great place for sunbathing (always use sunscreen!)and white big grain sand, few rocks here and there but plenty of space for everyone. (other beaches have small dark brown and black volcanic sand). The only down side is that everyone, even the locals love this beach and it takes ages to find a parking spot even tough there's an underground parking lot (it's not free but it's cheap!).

    Playa para perros en la que hay mucha piedra y poca arena. La marea trae bastante suciedad a pesar de que a veces la gente hace batidas de limpieza. La zona de atrás deja mucho que desear. Buen parking a ambos lados. Está justo en frente del CC el mirador.

    It is a beach for pets, it has many stones but for my dog ​​to enjoy it is wonderful

  • 3/5 apnea 6 months ago on Google • 35 reviews
    It is ideal to go with pets since it is an area allowed for this use and you can spend a good day. But, that area has wastewater right in the next ravine (ravine of Jinamar) at the foot of the beach and there is bathing It's a shame that at this point and with the modifications that have been made to make it an attractive place, they continue to remove the outfall.

    (Translated by Google) I arrived 2 days ago and there is music on at the Beach club for the whole neighborhood since noon, it seems like the town's parties, I am staying a kilometer from the place and it is impossible to take a nap, I have even tried with earplugs and not even with those, not counting the headache that arises from not being able to rest and from listening to what they are imposing on you (Original) Llegué hace 2 días y hay música puesta en el Beach club para toda la vecindad desde el medio día, parecen las fiestas del pueblo, estoy alojada a un kilómetro del lugar y es imposible echarse una siesta, lo he intentado hasta con tapones y ni con esas, sin contar con el dolor de cabeza que se te levanta por no poder descansar y por escuchar lo que te están imponiendo

    (Translated by Google) Beach approx. In the photos it looks fabulous, this green water is caused by algae. It's not that great when you swim in them. But the sand is very nice, lots of space, swimming in the bay so the water is calm, almost no waves. Of course, bars and so on, everything is there. And free parking. (Original) Plaża ok. Na zdjęciach wygląda bajkowo, ta zielona woda to przez glony. Jak się w nich pływa to już nie jest takie super. Ale piasek bardzo ładny, mnóstwo miejsca, pływanie w zatoce, dzięki czemu woda jest spokojna, prawie bez fal. Oczywiście bary itd, wszystko jest. No i darmowy parking.

    (Translated by Google) Granted - there are worse beaches than Playa de Amadores. But compared to other beaches on Gran Canaria there are significantly nicer ones. The rear boundary through a closed row of cafes and bars looks monotonous and unimaginative. The almost closed bay has hardly any waves and is therefore also suitable for children and less skilled swimmers, but there is hardly any water exchange. The buildings on the slopes with large castles are not as dense as in Puerto Rico, for example, and attempts have sometimes been made to adapt the architecture to natural conditions. The free parking lot near the beach is positive. There is a small mini golf course. (Original) Zugegeben - es gibt schlimmere Strände als Playa de Amadores. Aber im Vergleich zu anderen Stränden auf Gran Canaria gibt es doch bedeutend schönere. Die hintere Begrenzung durch eine geschlossene Reihe von Cafés und Bars wirkt eintönig und fantasielos. Die fast geschlossene Bucht hat zwar kaum Wellengang und ist somit auch gut für Kinder und weniger gute Schwimmer geeignet, jedoch findet auch kaum ein Wasseraustausch statt. Die Bebauung an den Hängen durch Bettenburgen ist nicht so dicht wie beispielsweise in Puerto Rico, teilweise ist versucht worden, die Architektur an natürliche Gegebenheiten anzupassen. Positiv zu bewerten ist der kostenlose Parkplatz in direkter Strandnähe. Es gibt eine kleine Minigolfanlage.

    Perfect place to spend a day at the beach, clean sand, plenty of bars and cafes. Loads of sun beds available to rent (€4) and clean toilets/showers (60 cent). If you are not staying in the resort I'd recommend at least spending a day Playa de Amadores.
