Agaete is a fishing village, its urban centre is located at an altitude of 43 metres above sea level. The topography of Agaete is, in general, very steep. Three main basins stand out from it: El Risco, Guayedra, and Agaete, reaching a maximum altitude of 1,180 metres in the ridge area of the Tamadaba Pine Forest.
The Tamadaba Natural Park is a protected area, and contains the largest pine forest in Gran Canaria. Towards the sea, the massif descends through steep slopes, deep ravines and rugged cliffs creating a landscape of great beauty, where the impressive Roque Faneque stands out, whose 1,008 metres in height fall vertically onto the sea, being considered one of the highest active cliffs in the world. Already in the upper part of the massif, above 1,000 metres in altitude, a flat surface appears occupied by a dense forest of Canarian pines.
From the Agaete Valley, which stands out for its unique beauty and its tropical fruit, orange, and coffee plantations, impressive views of the Tamadaba massif can be obtained, with its lush pine forests. In addition to the great beauty of the Agaete Valley, visitors can enjoy traditional constructions that provide shelter for rural tourism in the area, promoting hiking in the municipality.
The Port of Las Nieves is the coastal area of the municipality.
