A perfect climate for perfect holidays
Variety is the spice of life, and the ‘round island’ of Gran Canaria, just 47kms in length, has been blessed with more than its fair share.
Visitors and residents marvel at the contrasts...
From cool pine tree forests to warm turquoise waters. From hidden coves and steamy banana plantations to leafy wilderness and subtropical ravines.
Arrive. Unpack. Make straight for the pool or beach and unwind for an hour… for a day or two… for the whole holiday...
On the other hand, your idea of relaxation might be a walk into the parched foothills of the 1,949m peak Pozo de las Nieves – followed by a delicious picnic and a self drive tour of Fataga, a lush valley of 1,000 palm trees.
Stroll the Saharan sunny sand dunes of nearby Maspalomas, hitch a lift on a camel – or hike the soaring cliffs of the south west coast.
Just as each and every visitor is different, Gran Canaria’s rich landscape offers a wealth of surprises.
Las Palmas capital
The island’s north coast capital is the largest town in the Canaries and one of Spain’s most important ports. Explore the beautiful fifteenth century Spanish colonial architecture of its many churches, interesting museums, private houses and welcoming cafés and restaurants. Or just take in the atmosphere of lively Santa Catalina Park, where plays, shows, ‘fiestas’ and musical events regularly take place.
Away from the city
Sample delicious local wines , tangy goat’s cheese and other delicacies as you explore the extraordinary prehistoric caves. Or make your way to the typical Canarian village of Teror – where you can try out the Sunday market – or San Mateo, well worth a visit for its remarkable landscape.
Close to Anfi’s resorts on the south west coast, the fishing port of Arguineguín offers colourful boats, the freshest of fish and plenty of original Gran Canaria charm.
The narrow, flower-filled alleys and quaint canals of Puerto de Mogán are also a real treat. For a more contemporary resort atmosphere, try the bright lights and bargain shops of lively Puerto Rico.
