Playa de Tiritaña
Mogán, Gran Canaria, Canary Islands
A compact naturist cove of dark sand and rock at the mouth of a rugged ravine on Gran Canaria’s southwest coast. Its small size and undeveloped setting make the walk down feel far removed from the neighbouring resorts.
Nudity policy
Designated naturist beach
Mogán’s published beach ordinance names Tiritaña as an authorised naturist beach while retaining general public use. Nudity is welcome rather than compulsory.
The beach designation does not extend to the GC-500, road verges or neighbouring private property; follow any current access restrictions.
Facilities
No facilities on site.
No listed facilities are confirmed on the naturist shore. Approach parking and nearby services are described separately.
Access & visiting
Public beach access without membership, a beach-admission ticket or an overnight booking. Any parking, lounger or refreshment charge is separate; current access notices, closures and sea warnings take precedence.
Age & supervision
This is a shared public shoreline with no published minimum admission age or adult-only naturist enclosure in the checked visitor guidance. Children need adult supervision; the naturist boundaries and access conditions described below still apply.
Age policy sourceWhen to go
Public coast throughout the year, subject to sea conditions, weather and local access restrictions; check current notices before travelling.
Directions & Parking
Getting there
Use the GC-500 coastal road in the Tauro–Taurito area and identify the Tiritaña ravine before beginning the descent. The beach pin is at the water, not a vehicle access point; there is no confirmed road onto the sand.
Parking
National tourism records a parking area on the approach, separate from the cove. Its exact current entrance and charges are not published in the checked primary pages; park only where permitted and never on a road bend or in a way that blocks the coastal road.
Finding the naturist area
Descend on the established ravine footpath towards the cove. A first-hand local account describes rocky sections that may require using hands; this is not a smooth accessible path. Return if the route is damaged, blocked, wet or unclear rather than following cliff shortcuts.
Where naturism applies
The recognised naturist area is the small beach at the ravine mouth. Sand cover changes with the tide and swell; keep off unstable cliff edges and do not interpret the listing as permission to camp or enter neighbouring land.
- Bring walking shoes, drinking water and everything needed for an unserviced cove.
- No lifeguards or showers are confirmed.
- Avoid the ravine approach during rain, rough coastal weather or any official access closure.
Access guidance checked 2026-11-11. Follow current signs and any instructions from the venue or land manager.
