Piscinas Naturales del Agujero
Volcanic natural pools on the Galdar coast, made up of several pools of varying depth much loved by locals.
The Piscinas Naturales del Agujero sit on the coast of the municipality of Galdar in the north of Gran Canaria. They are made up of several volcanic pools of differing depth, one of them open to the sea, allowing both children and adults to bathe.
It is one of the natural pools most visited by locals, a family gathering spot with clear water full of small fish that is ideal for snorkelling. It has access stairs and walkways, showers, foot-wash points and nearby parking, and keeps an authentic feel away from the big tourist crowds.
