In the Northern part,
between PUERTO DE LA CRUZ and ICOD DE LOS VINOS, the small village BUEN PASO is
located. You pass through the place SAN JUAN DE LA RAMBLA and after 3 km you
reach BUEN PASO. At the Red-cross building you turn right and drive the small
road downhill. About 900 m further you will find Finca LA GAVIOTA on your right
hand side. It is situated on a promontory about 90 m above sea level.
The finca has a total extent of about 5.000 sqm. Here you
are surrounded by banana plantations and wine cultivation. In particular
pleasant is the overall rest as you are far away from the noise of the roads.
The main building with its three appartments is located on
a rambling area.
The five bungalows are
situated below the main building. Two semi-detached houses were arranged side by
side, one bungalow is detached. Two recently built appartments are right
opposite the detached bungalow, out of sight by high palm trees and ornamental
shrubs. From here you can enjoy the view over the
Atlantic ocean. If you look into the other direction, you can see the tall Teide
(3.718 m) perfectly. In wintertime the peak is even covered with snow.
The sea can be reached on foot within a walking distance of about 30 minutes
through a wild scenery. You can go fishing or swimming in a natural
swimming-pool of about 1.000 sqm, surrounded by a natural surf protection of
huge lava rocks. Cooling down is possible in our swimming-pool which is about 6
m long, 3 m wide and 1,8 m deep. Public swimming baths can be reached by car
within 5-10 minutes.
Access is by the road
joining Icod de Los Vinhosand Buenavista del Norte at a distance of about 15
kilometers from the latter. The 18 hole, a 72-par-course, has a lenght of 6.150
meters. The greens of 5 holes are close to the small cliffs of the rocky
coastline, where the waves break creating a remarkably beautiful sight. In some
holes one seems to hit the ball right into the Ocean. Greens have been designed
with great respect to the natural ground and indigenous species have been
planted in the new areas.
