Overview

Los Risquetes near La Santa is reported for informal naturist use on an open Atlantic shoreline in the Canary Islands. Textile use also occurs, so discretion is practical when choosing a spot. The setting is a natural volcanic rock and stone shore with no facilities, no toilets or showers, and no lifeguard service. Conditions are mild year-round with wind, while summer is warmer and drier. Morning and late afternoon generally offer milder sun and wind. Visits are practical as short stays of a few hours, with food, drink and facilities in La Santa.

Visiting the beach

Los Risquetes is an open shoreline near La Santa, Las Palmas, with access on foot over volcanic ground and no gate. Use established paths because the surface is volcanic rock and stone and can be uneven and slippery underfoot. Access is open with no fixed hours, and no admission fee is expected for coastal access along this shore. Parking is informal near the access, with no dedicated lot known, so park with care for other users. Public transport is limited, so a private vehicle or walking from La Santa is practical for most visitors. There are no facilities at the site, including no toilets, showers, food or drink outlets, shade structures, or lifeguard service. Bring water, food, sun protection and wind shelter, and plan to use facilities in La Santa before and after the visit. Little natural shade is available and sun exposure is high around midday on the exposed shore. Morning and late afternoon offer milder sun and wind conditions. The water is Atlantic with waves and currents that vary with wind and swell, so check conditions before entering and take care on rock. The practical season is mild year-round with wind; summer is warmer and drier, with May to October a practical period for warmer conditions. Short stays of a few hours are practical because of the lack of services and exposure. The setting is generally quiet, but privacy is limited on open shoreline where others may pass. Dogs have no clear policy known, so keep dogs leashed and supervised. The site suits self-sufficient visitors comfortable with natural, uneven shores and carrying what is needed in and out.

Naturist rules

Naturism at Los Risquetes is informal and tolerated rather than formally managed, and textile use also occurs on the same open shore. Choose a spot with distance from others and remain discreet, especially where paths or fishing activity pass close to the shoreline. Keep noise low and clothing on until settled in the chosen place. Avoid staring, photography of others, and close positioning that reduces comfort for other users. Take all rubbish away because no services are provided at the site. Keep dogs leashed and supervised and respect other shoreline users. Leave rock and stone undisturbed and keep the shore as found for the next visitors.

Visitor overview

Los Risquetes is a quiet, undeveloped Atlantic shore for self-sufficient visitors comfortable with volcanic rock and stone and open conditions. Expect open access with no gate, no facilities, no toilets or showers, and no lifeguard service at any time. Sun exposure is high with little shade, and wind is common through the year, so sun protection and wind shelter are practical.
