Beach overall scores
Playa de Veneguera (Las Palmas) is located outside the Playa de Mogan settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the coast of the Gran Canaria and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Playa de Veneguera with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.
User reviews
"Despite the stunning gorge you have to drive through to get there, the gravel and sometimes stony road to the beach is so narrow that it can only accommodate one car, making the experience almost not worth it. However, the beach is easily accessible, so it may still be worth checking out."
Matthew Przybyla
"If you're looking for a secluded beach, take a drive to Veneguera and turn right. The road will change from tarmac to a track, and you'll need to drive slowly for around 30 minutes at 20kmh (unless you're in a 4x4). It's definitely worth it for the stunning views and the peaceful atmosphere - when we visited, there were only locals on the beach."
