Playa de Veneguera
Playa de Veneguera closes the ravine of the same name in the municipality of Mogán, in south-western Gran Canaria. The town council describes it as an isolated beach some 370 metres long, of black sand and pebbles, with moderate swell and comfortable conditions for bathing. It is reached along an unpaved track, and both the beach and the ravine belong to the Parque Rural del Nublo.
Playa de Veneguera lies at the mouth of the ravine of the same name, in the municipality of Mogán in south-western Gran Canaria. From the GC-1 the route follows the GC-200 towards La Aldea, passing Mogán over some 15 kilometres, and then drops down the ravine on a dirt track between fruit farms. The island tourism board recommends a vehicle suited to that terrain.
