History
The Maspalomas dunes adjacent to this coast are a distinctive natural feature formed by wind-driven quartz sand over volcanic substrata and are valued locally as a protected landscape.
Conservation
Operators follow a low-impact approach: maintain observation distance, avoid feeding wildlife, and carry out any litter; these practices minimize disturbance to marine species.
