Playa de Melenara Canoe Forecast

Playa de Melenara scores 74/100 for canoe today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces SE. A 350 m dark volcanic-sand beach on Gran Canaria's quiet east coast, calm and shallow in typical conditions but exposed to northeast and easterly swell and wind. A beach-and-reef break activates on northeast swell, with likely submerged rock away from the sandy shore; it draws fewer visitors than more popular beaches. Swimmers must stay within designated areas. Lifeguards are present in high season, public holidays, and weekends.
