Playa Machado, just north of the main beach of Playa El Mdano on the island's south-east coast is also a good bet for water sports. There are plenty of cafes and bars, and the laid back atmosphere of this golden beach is popular among holidaying windsurfers and kiteboarders as well as the professionals, who compete here in championship events throughout the summer.
If you've caught the windsurfing bug, the beaches on Gran Canaria, with its breezy weather conditions and consistently warm climate, are almost unrivalled for an exhilarating water sports holiday.
Pozo Izquierdo is located half an hour north from Maspalomas driving towards the airport. This is the place to mingle with the pros and you'll find several schools where you can learn the basics of windsurfing, as well as numerous hire shops, which can rent windsurfing kit to the experienced as well as surfboards for those just looking to get out into the waves.
Land-loving sun worshippers will find plenty to enjoy in Fuerteventura, where a beach holiday doesn't have to entail splashing about in the sea. Get active with an early morning jog on the flat, compact sands of the Costa Calma beach in the south of the island or take in the scenery with a hike on the beaches of the Isle of Lobos, just a short half-hour boat ride from the busy tourist harbour of Corralejo on the northern coast. Boasting crystal clear waters and picturesque beaches, this small island plays host to thousands of varieties of winged creatures, from migrating birds to rare seabirds.
