One of the reasons that holidays to Gran Canaria are so popular is due to the variety and affordability of accommodation and hotels in Gran Canaria. Whether you are looking for a family holiday on a budget, a last minute getaway for some much needed sun or something a little more special and romantic, you will be able to find the right holiday for you in sunny Gran Canaria.
Gran Canaria can boast around 150 different beaches with the finest of them being found on the south coast of island around Playa del Ingles and Maspalomas. In this area you will find a vast area of huge rolling sand dunes and clear blue seas that glitter in the sun. The huge scale and unspoilt beauty of the sand dunes at Maspalomas are incredible and even if you are not staying in this particular part of the island it is well worth a visit just so you can say you haven’t missed out. A little further round the coast heading west you will find the glistening volcanic sands of Puerto Mogan and the beautiful shores of Amadores that although man-made you’d never know.
When on holiday in Gran Canaria it well worth getting out and about to see a bit more of what this Island has to offer. The diverse landscape will captivate you with the pine covered hills, banana plantations and coastal scenery. Why not take a camel ride over the sand dunes or try out some of the various water-sport activities on offer such as wind-surfing or jet-skiing or you could take the kids for a day out at one of the water parks, Sioux City and Holiday World. For those looking for a little bit of retail therapy there is only one place to go, the capital Las Palmas. Shopping here is better than anywhere else on the island and then some, with chic boutiques large modern shopping malls and department stores. If you head inland to the tiny picturesque villages you can browse quaint little shops and traditional markets and pick up a bargain or two along the way.
After a day on the beach or exploring all that Gran Canaria has to offer it is time to party and probably the best place for that is the lively resort of Playa Del Ingles. This is where the party people come to play and have fun. The open-air bars along the promenade are a god place to start the evening with a few cocktails or simply enjoy a nice meal in one of the restaurants. After that then you will find every type of lively bars and clubs and loud music and a variety of Karaoke bars. For a something a little more relaxed head for Las Palmas or the Faro area of Maspalomas where you find a lovely strip of al fresco dining options and charming bars.
