Las Canteras Beach (Spanish: Playa de Las Canteras) is the largest beach in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and one of the most popular beaches on the island of Gran Canaria. It is known for its fine golden sand and crystal-clear water. It stretches over 3 kilometers, making it one of the longest urban beaches in the Canary Islands.

The beach is protected from the strong waves of the Atlantic Ocean by the natural barrier reef La Barra, creating a calm lagoon ideal for swimming and snorkeling. The entire beach is lined by the central city promenade, Paseo de Las Canteras, with numerous shops, restaurants, bars, cafes, and nightclubs, making it the center of resort and nightlife in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.

Las Canteras Beach is equipped with numerous amenities for a quality beach experience, including sunbed and umbrella rentals, showers, and changing rooms. There are also areas for beach volleyball and other sports. The southern part of the beach, with surf schools, known as La Cicer, is very popular among surfers due to its consistent waves, attracting many surfers from around the world. The Canary Islands have a tropical, moderately hot, and dry climate, allowing for year-round beach vacations.
