Panels and videos on how the dunes formed · beside the Hotel Riu Palace, in Playa del Inglés

The reserve's visitor centre is inside the Hotel Riu Palace, in Playa del Inglés, beside the main dunes viewpoint. It has panels and videos about how the dunes formed and why they matter. The viewpoint links up with the Costa Canaria promenade and is the most convenient starting point for going down onto the sand. We have not found its opening hours published.
