3rd stage: Teror to La Costa: we leave Arucas towards the coast and heading up the motorway GC 2 Guia. From the motorway you see already that what the North of Gran Canaria is very well known and famous: rugged, Black Rock coast, at the constantly breaking surf. The northern coastline is in no way with the calm waters and beaches of the South compare. Beaches, but often not really inviting to bathing since ceaselessly rolling a crashing surf on the coast to exist only in a few places. However, Combipix advises you to visit this section of the island, because the image of a blue sea, which applies under a blue sky black beaches and rocks, really long will join.
The place La Costa will also represent a beautiful picture. Colorful houses, densely assembled, extend on a ledge into the blue sea. A motif that you should not miss. From the village of La Costa, the motorway GC 2 on the mountain slopes of the Punta Gallegos in the height screws. You should necessarily go two wonderful vantage points directly at the motorway because you have beautiful views of the rugged coastline and the surrounding area here.

After passing three or four tunnels, the highway begins GC 2 again in the shallow areas of the West Coast down to meander. From a distance you see the extinct Volcanic crater, which is a part of the town of Guia. The place has a beautiful church with a beautiful market square and several small streets. In spite of this beautiful church and Combipix advises the shops not too long to stay for you, because with the place Punta de la Nieves still a highlight of this tour is waiting for you in this city. 5 stage: Sta. Maria de Guia Sardina and Puerto de las Nieves.
