Things to Do:

With the La Barra reef just off of the main beach Las Canteras, there is plenty of wildlife to see when snorkeling or scuba diving in Las Palmas. There are several options for tours or classes, but many visitors choose to simply look around on their own when the tide is low and many creatures end up between the beach and the reef.

If scuba diving and snorkeling aren't enough sports for you, cheer on the Union Deportiva Las Palmas (better known as LD Las Palmas) he Gran Canaria's premier football team. You can go to a game to experience the thrill of the 31,000-seat Gran Canaria Stadium come to life. Located 4.5km from the Vegueta neighborhood, a UD game is a unique experience many tourists miss out on.

Hit the Beach:

On the north end of Las Palmas, near La Isleta, is the unofficial beach of El Confital. There are a few signs heading east from the Paseo de Canteras that point out the way to hidden El Confital. This wilder beach doesn't have a protective reef like Las Canteras, so for those looking for a true Atlantic beach with roaring waves, El Confital is the perfect fit. Near a residential neighborhood, this beach is less crowded and often populated with locals. Tourists who like to get off the beaten path will love this beach.

Eating and Drinking Out:

Located in the basement of the Hotel Madrid, the hotel's cafe is a tucked away spot for grabbing lunch during a day of shopping in the Triana neighborhood. With a variety of dishes both international and local, it's a family-friendly spot that has something to please everyone.

The hottest month in Las Palmas begs for some delicious refreshments along with quality food, and that's something Cho Zacarias restaurant does extremely well.
