EL ROQUE - IZQUIERDA
To let time pass, enjoy the pleasures of the simple, lose yourself almost in secret
The Roque of dreams.
To let time pass, enjoy the pleasures of simplicity, lose yourself almost secretly in the magic of a narrow street that rises to contemplate an entire ocean in its greatest splendor.
Gone is the hustle and bustle of the city, the hustle and bustle of the highway.
Going through the narrow streets of El Roque means going uncovered, removing the superfluous.
After a short walk through narrow streets, you can see the sea.
It is one of the corners of the island where you can feel and hear the force of the ocean without anything to distract you. It is difficult to describe the beauty of a sunset in El Roque, with the white foam breaking the rock and the sound of the waves that play with the sea.
El Roque is witness to a time when every meter of fertile land was worked and houses were built in impossible places, where it could not be cultivated.
Go up its steep slope because it is like jumping to another time, to the place you prefer to dream, let yourself be rocked by the history of an environment like this, just 320 meters out to sea.
It reminds us of a Turkish town, a unique village urbanization, streets without cars or noise. Small town that is painted regularly and year after year looks like a mountain that approaches the sea to separate itself from highways and noise.
Time passes, nothing remains unchanged, the sun rises and sets every day, but in this small corner of Gran Canaria you will always find someone capable of enjoying, almost secretly, the pleasure of simplicity, looking at the horizon that draws a natural future of eternal sky and ocean.
