One of the most iconic places in Arrecife is located at Barlovento Beach, it's not the busiest beach or the best beach in the area but it's a boat stranded, called Telamon and that has been there since 1981.

The story went like this, in 1981 the merchant ship called Temple Hall and finally named with the name of Telamon, 139 meters long and 18 wide wrecked off the coast of Lanzarote. Before shipwrecking the Telamon was loaded with wooden logs from Ivory Coast and its destination was the Greek port of Thessaloniki, an accident caused a waterway before reaching the island of Lanzarote, was towed to this area to avoid blocking the port of Arrecife. These remains were not removed and currently forms one of the most curious and at the same time the most unknown pictures of the entire archipelago.

The beach can be easily reached by car and is very close to the urban area, the sand is dark in color and is a perfect place to take curious snapshots. From the shore you can see an imposing part of the ship, since during its towage the ship split in two and one of them sank.

One of the reference sites of Arrefice is the Historic Site of the San Gabriel Castle located on the coast in one of the islets of the bay.

It is Castillo de San Gabriel is a construction that served as a fortress against piracy that came from Africa. To access the fortification must be made through the famous Puente de las Bolas, a few accesses dating from the XVIII century and is built of stone and topped with two balls .

Although they are separated by approximately 200 meters, the two elements are part of the complex and are interlaced by two cobblestone roads. The Castle did not always look like this, at first it was a smaller construction with wooden interiors that burned after an attack. In 1568 it was rebuilt by the Italian engineer Torriani.

The Castillo de San Gabriel currently has the Museo Arqueológico de Arrecife where more than 2500 pieces of the era are exhibited as pre-Hispanic vestiges, ceramics Castilian and Andalusian collections of numismatics, small idols, stone incisions, tools and primitive tools. The fortress is surrounded by a small beach of golden sand, which gives the place more beauty.
