Anfi is an artificial beach in the south-west of
Gran Canaria island, Spain. White sand and a promenade with palms resemble the Caribbean, but massive buildings in the background spoil the view. However, this is a great place for families with children. There are no waves in the bay, while the water is slightly warmer than in the open ocean. Access to the beach is free, while the restriction is only for access to the hotel's gardens. There are restaurants, as well as a Spar supermarket (very expensive one). Shore and seabed: sand.
