Gran Canaria – a perfect beach holiday destination in the Canary Islands

Gran Canaria is a great holiday destination thanks to its warm climate and unique environment. The capital, Las Palmas, is great for shopping and culture, while the famous beaches are in the south. Gran Canaria also boasts several golf courses and offers great opportunities for biking and water sports.

If you're looking to unwind and soak up some sun, head to Puerto Rico. Alternatively, if you'd like some more action and enjoy good food, lively Playa del Inglés is the place to go. Gran Canaria's most famous attractions include the dunes of Maspalomas, located by the roaring sea, and the beach resort of Amadores, where the turquoise sea meets the white sand.
