Arinaga Lighthouse and Cabron beach (Gran Canaria)


In the southwest of the island of Gran Canaria you can find two wonderful places.

The first is the Arinaga Lighthouse, where you can feel the wind in your face, and admire the stunning views seen from the beach of "Cabron" and Arinaga beach.
Today the lighthouse is under construction, but we can approach him and take pictures of the lighthouse and the landscape.



On the other hand we find the beach of "Cabron" A spectacular place inhabited by very few houses along the beach, but under the water lies a great treasure.
Cabron is a marine reserve, ideal for scuba diving activities due to its rich flora and fauna.

Honestly, if you're a fan of diving, I recommend without hesitation, come to this place.

Santa Rita Church (Gran Canaria)


Since I was little, I always had certain beliefs about the Virgin of Santa Rita and the small churches all. Do not know if it's coincidence, luck or perhaps fate, but all the promises I've made have been met.



This small church located near the airport of Gran Canaria, is a famous place of pilgrimage on the island, because when the day is the festival of the Virgen de Santa Rita, on the roads we see many pilgrims on their way to church.



The church is amazing by day but at night is fascinating and somewhat mysterious, because when they feel that way about a good feeling running through your body.


One of the visits should do if they are in Gran Canaria is the Church of Santa Rita.

Boat excursion (Gran Canaria)

A large group of friends we had a spectacular day boat trip on the island of Gran Canaria.

Several boats left the beach Burrero destination south of the island of Gran Canaria. Different types of ships and boats, jet skis and other vessels.

In the south of the island, many different activities such as skiing, got in the donnut and we even swam in the sea. At noon, we stop at a small cove, where we use to eat the whole group of people.

The southern coast of the island is characterized by high rocky cliffs from the area of Arguineguin touring throughout the west. Meloneras to Playa del Ingles you can find great and beautiful sandy beaches, where I assure you'll end up taking many photos

You can admire the deep blue of the seabed in the area, as it is one of the best places to dive due to water clarity and the great variety of marine species can be found there. Being surrounded by a large shoal of fish is very common and a feeling that has no words.

Ship Sunken in Arguineguin (Gran Canaria)


Among the many emotions that reserves any dive, without a doubt one of the greatest is to visit all the ships that lay in the funds.

The mystery, and you put your hand on either chair of a sunken ship produces a chilling sensation of what it would be the end of its occupants, the year in which the event occurred and another untold number of unknowns.


This boat is located in Arguineguin and the creaking of chairs under the sea timber, the door sounds are sounds that seem shocking and confusing for divers, if not the despair of the monotonous ringing, that continue even when out of water.



In our dive to the ship was led by some experienced divers, but still worth seeing the image of fish swimming around you, fish as big as your body and that beautiful yet intriguing landscape that is in the Arguineguin seabed
