Wind and Waves Festival in Pozo Izquierdo every July Wind and Waves Festival in Pozo Izquierdo every July www.photosgrancanaria.com

Gran Canaria's east coast gets so blowy in July that the whole windsurfing world gathers at Pozo Izquierdo for the World Windsurfing Cup. 

Rather than just a windsurfing tournament, Pozo lays on a full-blown festival with daily concerts, demonstrations and kiddie activities.

Pozo is a great place to visit during the festival as the action happens just offshore so you get to see the wold's best windsurfers doing incredible stunts. With hundereds of flags blowing, music competing with the howling wind and a great atmosphere, Pozo is the coolest place in Gran Canaria during Wind and Waves.

The cafe at the north end of the pebble beach caters to hungry windsurfers so you get big portions of great food at excellent prices. 

The Wind and Waves Festival 2015 is on between July 11 and 19. The tournament strts at 10.00 am every day.

    Gran Canaria Tip: What Are The Best Car Hire Companies?

    This is one of the most common questions we get in our Facebook Group (with over 30,000 members) and fortunately, it is an easy one to answer. The Gran Canaria Info admin team and the fans in our Facebook group agree...

    The best car hire companies in Gran Canaria are local ones with desk at the airport and honest pricing policies that don't have any hidden insurance or fuel deposit costs. They just rent you a good car at a good price with no fuss at all. 

    We recommend Mr Car Hire Gran Canaria (Nick); an idependent car rental professional who works with all the main local rental companies in Gran Canaria. This means that he can always find you a good deal.

    Mr Car Hire also offers fully comprehensive insurance on all car rental, three-day bookings, and delively of your car right to your door anywhere in Gran Canaria. 

    We advise all Gran Canaria visitors to avoid booking the cheapest possible car on generic car rental websites or via their flight company because you often end up paying large deposits, extra fuel and insurance costs and all kinds of other costs once you arrive to pick up your car at the airport.
