Pasito Blanco brings together several distinct attractions for a seaside stay: Playa de Pasito Blanco (El Hornillo), Puerto Deportivo Pasito Blanco and dining options at the harbour. The beach’s size and shoreline shape the experience; at the harbour, boat trips and deep-sea fishing excursions take centre stage. There is also a seasonal summer programme for children and a restaurant with a beach club. When planning your trip, you can consider time at the beach, activities on the water and dining as separate priorities.
Beach and diving opportunities
Playa de Pasito Blanco (El Hornillo) stretches for 450 metres. Fine sand, pebbles and rocks are all part of the shoreline, so expect a mix of surfaces when visiting the beach. The bathing waters are considered calm, although actual sea conditions can vary.
A mile south of the harbour, in a sandy area, lies Baja de Pasito Blanco, which is highly regarded by divers. If you plan to dive there, check the local access conditions before your dive.
Harbour, boats and deep-sea fishing
Puerto Deportivo Pasito Blanco is open year-round. Visitor and berth arrangements may change; if you are planning a visit or a berth, check the applicable conditions at the time.
Boat options include boats that do not require a licence, larger boats that require one, and private trips with a skipper and crew. The options therefore differ in licensing requirements and format. Operators and fleet options may change; check the specific possibilities if you have a particular option in mind.
Deep-sea fishing excursions depart from Pasito Blanco and target tuna, swordfish and blue marlin. Target species and operators may vary seasonally. The VI Open Internacional de Pesca de Altura Gran Canaria places particular emphasis on the catch-and-release method.
Seasonal activities for children
A programme announcement from 2026 describes the Pasito Blanco Summer Campus as a seasonal offering for children aged 7 to 15. The programme includes sailing, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, banana boat rides, beach games and activities in the sea. The venue is listed as Puerto Deportivo Pasito Blanco in San Bartolomé de Tirajana. If you are considering a later edition, check the information again.
Restaurant and beach club
La Punta Yacht Club combines a restaurant and a beach club at Puerto Deportivo Pasito Blanco. The restaurant serves, among other things, traditional papas arrugadas, rice dishes, meat and fish. Restaurant and beach club operations, as well as the menu, may change, so check the latest information when making specific plans.
