    Destinations in Gran Canaria

    Top Destinations

    • Arguineguin

      Holidays to Arguineguin, on the southern tip of Gran Canaria, are all about the calm waters and busy market.

    • Bahia Feliz

      On the Canaries' third-largest island, Bahia Feliz holidays combine days on the beach with the buzz of nearby Las Palmas.

    • Maspalomas

      Maspalomas holidays are the antidote to the natural or manmade conundrum. You get a hefty glug of both when you rock up here.

    • Playa del Ingles

      Playa del Ingles holidays turn up the volume, blending a trendsetting party scene with shining beaches and popular watering holes.

    • Puerto Rico

      Holidays to Puerto Rico are great for sandy beaches, shiny new shopping malls and fun-packed nightlife.

    • San Agustin (Gran Canaria)

      San Agustin holidays give you the best of both worlds. The town itself is a peaceful place, but right next door you've got lively Playa del Ingles.

    • Puerto Mogan

      Holidays to Puerto Mogan turn on the charm, with picturesque waterways, sunken wrecks and quaint places to eat along the harbour.

    • Playa Del Cura

      A Playa del Cura holiday's just what the doctor ordered, if you're looking for a dose of peace and quiet within easy reach of a bigger resort, like Puerto Rico.

    • Playa Taurito

      Playa Taurito holidays plant you on a small-but-perfectly-formed patch of sand, where watersports, a waterpark and tapas bars are at the ready.

    • Las Palmas

      Who says the seaside can't be cosmopolitan? The hubbub of Gran Canaria's capital meets laidback shores on holidays to Las Palmas.

    • Balito Beach

      Balito Beach holidays trundle along in the slow lane, with a couple of Gran Canaria's faster-paced customers running on either side.

    • Meloneras

      Meloneras holidays in Gran Canaria give you the 5-star treatment – think ocean-view golf, designer shopping and seafront dining.

    • Amadores

      Amadores holidays showcase Gran Canaria's low-key side. A big, sandy beach and a winding clifftop path set the sleepy scene.

    • El Salobre

      With leafy palms, blankets of grass and countryside views galore, El Salobre holidays are emeralds in Gran Canaria's crown.
