The open personality and multicultural character of the city can be felt especially in this area, the nerve center, along with Triana-Vegueta, of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Life here revolves around the sea: it is framed by an isthmus that joins it with the peninsula of La Isleta and leaves the beach of Las Canteras on one side and the Port of Las Palmas on the other.
Las Canteras offers endless opportunities for relaxation, leisure, gastronomy, sport and entertainment along its three kilometres of coastline, which span three neighbourhoods: La Isleta, the most traditional and lively, home to one of the city’s most beautiful natural enclaves, El Confital; Santa Catalina–Canteras, with Santa Catalina Park as its vibrant centre between the port and the beach; and Guanarteme, where surf enthusiasts gather at La Cícer beach area and music lovers meet at the Alfredo Kraus Auditorium.
