About Playa de las Burras

Playa de las Burras is a sandy beach about 320 m long, 17.6 km from San Bartolomé de Tirajana (Gran Canaria). It faces south-southeast: wind from the north-northwest blows off the land here and flattens the water, while wind and swell from the south-southeast roll straight in. OpenStreetMap shows 15 places to eat or drink within 400 m, 22 hotels or apartments within 600 m, toilets, parking and a lifeguard post nearby.
