About Agaete

Agaete Port is located on the northwest side of the island of Gran Canaria, just outside the main city of Agaete in the Puerto de las Nieves ferry terminal.

As it is not a very large port, there are only basic facilities including parking and shaded waiting areas. However, you can find restaurants in town that are only a short walk from the port.

Agaete is regarded as one of the most beautiful towns in northeast Gran Canaria. The Agaete Valley in northwest Gran Canaria is one of the most picturesque places on the island, spanning from slopes covered by the best-preserved pine forest on the island to the beautiful Atlantic waves via a gorgeous, lush valley and a charming old town. Treasures like 19th-century homes with interior patios, the Concepción church, and the magnificent walled Huerto de las Flores garden can be found in this town with its whitewashed homes clinging to the valley slope. Agaete also has a couple of stony beaches.
