Maspalomas

posted by qwilson on 12 November 2010 at 15:54

This resort is more peaceful and prettier than Playa Del Ingles. The unique difference is the Maspalomas sand dunes which have been designated a natural reserve and at times feels like you are as remote as in the Sahara.

GC-1 motorway 30 minutes from the airport

Portobello Beach

posted by fbowman on 12 November 2010 at 10:33

When we went to Edinburgh this was top of the list with the kids, they loved it. It's a pretty beach, only 3 miles from edinburgh and they totally wore themselves out rushing about and making sand castles. Expect not to be warm, and nobody ventured in the sea after a trial toe-dip!

Out east, head towards the village of portobello

Bondi Beach

posted by ypfeifer on 11 November 2010 at 14:29

Bondi Beach! Just the name conjurs up the essence of Australia! The beach is beautiful, if totally rammed, and the surf was great too when I could get a look in! Am guessing it's always like this so give it a miss if you don't want to hang out in the crowd but I couldn't come to Sydney and not go here!

where, when, how, web
Luckily a bunch of surfers i met at a bar picked me up and lent me a board, but it's not far from the main city bit so i'm guessing quite easy to get to

Towards the south of the town i think we used to just grab a taxi to transport all our stuff easily!
