Grand Canaria’s never ending appeal begins with its beach resorts. Playa del Ingles is a popular resort located on the southernmost tip of the island and as well as a flurry of beaches offers a promenade of bars, restaurants, pubs and shops – enough to keep you entertained for weeks! Elsewhere, if you are a golf enthusiast then immerse yourself in one of our festive golf breaks to Gran Canaria.
In the capital, Las Palmas, take a trip to see the Canary Museum where you can learn about Christopher Columbus’s journey through this extraordinary city during his voyage to America. Also worth a visit is the city’s cathedral. Built over 600 years ago, the Cathedral of Las Palmas has a gothic interior design and an imposing neoclassical facade. Alternately, single travellers can discover the famous 400 hectares of Saharan-sized dunes in Maspalomas that is located not too far away from the capital.
