Playa del Burrero
A beach on the coast of Ingenio, in the south-eastern sector of Gran Canaria, running for about 500 metres over sand and pebbles. The official Gran Canaria tourism portal considers it well suited to sailing and windsurfing because of the wind and the swell in the area. Ingenio council keeps a lifeguard and surveillance post here during the summer season, along with public toilets, an environmental education room and sports facilities.

Playa de Puntalarga
Playa de Puntalarga is a small bay on the coastline of Fuencaliente de La Palma, about a hundred metres long and twenty metres wide, with a mix of sand and callao pebbles. Small rocky outcrops shelter it from the sea and the swell stays moderate. A natural rock pool lies right beside the beach, and the whole corner is ringed by fishermen's huts, with fishermen often at work there.
