Sunshine and sand dunes
Holidays in Gran Canaria take you to one of the Canary Islands’ largest islands. It’s increasingly popular with British holidaymakers, bringing you large resorts which date back to the 19th Century when Queen Victoria visited. Here you’ll find a wide selection of restaurants, huge sweeping bays, beaches, and activities to suit everyone. Families will love mountain biking, water parks, and even camel rides, while couples can explore the history and culture of the towns, visit the spas and enjoy the island’s many bars.
Gran Canaria offers a diverse selection of resorts to choose from. Maspalomas is home to sweeping sand dunes which stretch down into the ocean. For upmarket shops, restaurants and hotels, choose Playa Meloneras, while Puerto Mogan’s marina offers a taste of luxury.
Luxury holidays in Gran Canaria centre around its wonderful beaches. Choose from large golden stretches sheltered from the winds by craggy cliffs, or little coves where you will find local fish restaurants and a chance to try some watersports. Playa Meloneras is home to luxury shops where you can pick up boutique and designer items, perfumes, clothing and accessories, while golf lovers will find courses throughout the island. There’s something for foodies too, with lots of fresh, homemade tapas dishes.
