Puerto Rico Bay

Highlight • Beach

Puerto Rico is a tourist town, the area was opened in the 1970s. Accordingly, you do not expect idyllic fishermen's houses and ancient fishing boats, but hotel complexes and excursion boats. But tourism dominates nunmal the south of the island and so it is somehow part of a Gran Canaria holiday. If you cycle along the south coast, you should definitely stop by the harbor and take a look at the bay or even jump into the warm water.

February 28, 2025,Ausklang an der Küste Gran Canarias

Last full day on Gran Canaria. I wanted to use the racing bike a little more today. But only a relaxed tour along the coast to Taurito. Actually, Playa de Mogán would be the right place to turn around. A small, tranquil place right by the sea. However, this is not possible at the moment due to construction work. Taurito …

This short loop along the south coast is perfect for getting to know your bike and acclimatizing. A few elevation gains, short descents, waves to gain momentum, and beautiful curves. The traffic is unfortunately annoying, and we cyclists are guaranteed to annoy the drivers too, but it's still beautiful, with constant views of the coast.

The route always goes along the coast. A constant up and down and therefore ideal for warming up. The asphalt is premium, but the traffic is medium at most.
It was supposed to go over to Playa de Morgan and up to the Tauro Pass, but the road is closed, the other a steep gravel road and the bit of …

A tour to discover the south coast of Gran Canaria. We start from Maspalomas and walk along the beautiful tree-lined avenues that characterize this tourist center. Take the road to Playa del Mogan and go along a beautiful stretch that runs along the sea, mainly desert, up to the town of Arghineguin which is worth visiting because it is authentic, …

Today it was time for regeneration.
Therefore easily driven to Taurito. Unfortunately we cannot continue to Porto Mogan as the road is permanently closed.
The only way to get ahead is by ferry or illegally via the motorway for about 600m

March 19, 2024,GC24 Day 4: Rekomrunde zum Strand nach Taurito

Today, after a slightly longer breakfast, a relaxed trip to Taurito was on the agenda.
At a slow train pace we went along the coast in very pleasant temperatures to a relaxing cafe stop at the beach near Taurito.
The way back was similarly relaxed, as the protagonists knew about tomorrow's queen stage into the Valley of Tears.
