Gran Canaria
One of the main islands in the Canaries is a true paradise on earth. Don’t wait a minute longer to discover every corner of this 200-kilometre coastline of seaside views. Book a trip to Gran Canaria and…
Explore the volcanic island
Enter an idyllic setting with a backdrop of dazzling beaches, like Playa de las Canteras and Playa de las Alcaravaneras. To the south, you can also visit the famous Playa del Inglés sea resort! And discover the nearby dunes of Maspalomas, known as the island’s oasis. Another great choice is Puerto Mogán: a picturesque village famous among visitors, who have dubbed it the “Venice” of the Canary Islands. End the day by watching the sunset while you bathe in the natural pools of Agaete!
It’s not just beaches
If you think Gran Canaria’s only attraction is its beaches, think again! Its capital city, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, is also very much worth visiting. Start with Triana and Vegeta, which are not only the oldest part of the city but are also home to some big attractions: the popular Vegeta Market, Santa Ana Cathedral and Casa Colón, a museum dedicated to navigator Christopher Columbus and his travels. Venture further to the interior of the island and climb to the top of Roque Nublo, a symbol of Gran Canaria and one of its highest points. The view is breath-taking!
