Mirador Paseo La Cornisa
Mirador Paseo La Cornisa is an urban viewpoint on the Paseo de La Cornisa, in the Ciudad Alta district of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. From it opens a wide panorama of the city, of the Atlantic Ocean and, above all, of the Puerto de Las Palmas. The municipal tourism website adds that the viewpoint was renamed in 2010 in honour of the Italian town of Martinsicuro, a place linked to the city by fishing history.
The viewpoint takes up a stretch of the Paseo de La Cornisa, in the upper part of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Its interest is the one announced by the name of the promenade itself: a raised edge from which the city, the coastline and the Puerto de Las Palmas can be seen, with the Atlantic behind them. The municipal listing places it in the Ciudad Alta district, and its postal address falls within code 35011 of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.
The official name recalls the ties between Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and Martinsicuro, in Italy, two towns connected by the history of their fishing fleets between the nineteen forties and the nineteen sixties. The renaming took place in 2010. The municipal listing gives no detail on approach, parking or facilities at the viewpoint, so on those points no official information has been published.

Mirador de Izcagua
Mirador de Izcagua stands in the El Pinar area of Puntagorda, in the north-west of La Palma, right beside the Mercadillo del Agricultor farmers' market. The website of the La Palma Biosphere Reserve presents it as a set of floating viewpoints: walkways edged with glass railings that reach out over the ravine and give a sensation of flight. It is reached by car from the village centre heading north, along the camino del Pinar.
