San Augustin was the first resort to be established on Gran Canaria in the 1970s before Playa del Ingles and Maspalomas. San Augustin is Spanish for Saint Augustine. It is the first of the towns located near the Maspalomas dunes. It is a favourite with tourists who want to get away from the noisy and crowded beaches of Maspalomas and Playa del Ingles. It has a fine choice of small bars and restaurants catering from most tastes. It has three small protected beaches of dark sand. The beaches shelve gently into the sea; there are strong undercurrents which can be dangerous. The area is perfect for wind surfing. Inland Gran Canaria is worth exploring with its stunning scenery and charming old villages. Jeep safaris to Mount Tejeda are an ideal way to explore the island. The climate is pleasantly hot summers and warm winters thus attracting visitors from all over the world.
