The water
temperature (which varies between 18ºC in winter and
22ºC during the rest of the year), the harbour
infrastructure for yachting and the optimal sea and
wind conditions make this island the ideal place for
practicing sailing and other water sports all year
round. In fact, water sports is the most important
leisure activity on offer on the island.
The 236
kilometres of coastline provide the best conditions
for practicing every kind of water sports. Winds
that are ideal for sailing, sea currents that
attract large schools of fish to the proximity of
the coast and the exquisite sea bottom are the
natural conditions that have created one
uninterrupted sporting season on Gran Canaria, while,
in the rest of Europe, all activities related to the
sea come to a complete standstill in winter.
In order to take full
advantage of these natural conditions, a
comprehensive infrastructure as well as general and
special services have been developed to cater for
the various maritime disciplines. Practically every
corner of the island has a company, club,
association or centre that provides mooring for
yachts, making it possible for enthusiasts to
satisfy their desire to dominate the ocean, slicing
through the waves, going on outings, catching prized
fishing trophies or immersing oneself in the
crystalline immensity of the ocean.
