The beach of Amdores, in Gran Canaria, is one of those destinations that seem to be tailor made for those travelling with family. Known as one of the quietest areas and with the best atmosphere on the island, it also offers a perfect beach for children, protected from the strong currents of the Atlantic ocean by two large breakwaters.
The beach of Amadores, viewed from the hill under which it runs, looks like a large family swimming pool where children can spend the day playing in the water and parents can rest sunbathing peacefully, completely unconcerned.
Located between the towns of Puerto Rico and Mogan we find this famous beach, known by many as the “peaceful beach” and in recent years transformed into one of the most important tourist resorts in Gran Canaria, where you find different accommodation options, from the classic all inclusive hotel or apartments with views to Playa Amadores.
A magnet for many foreign tourists, due to the natural charm of the area, it still retains that simple aesthetics, typical in many towns in the south of Gran Canaria, Amadores and its beautiful beach offer all kinds of comforts, that have led it into the top of user reviews, even over the iconic beach of Playa del Ingles.
In the surrounding area, you find the coastal town of Puerto Rico, belonging to the municipality of Mogan (like Amadores), and surrounded by beautiful valleys and a remarkable abundance of European tourists, especially Norwegians. It is an area with a strong link to fishing and coastal activity, and it is an ideal place to enjoy a boat trip and see dolphins travelling along the coast. A perfect experience to enjoy with children.
