Gran Canaria Travel Tips

Gran Canaria

The Canariones, as the islanders tend to refer to themselves, like to think of Gran Canaria as a 'continent in miniature.' You'll come across this phrase with great regularity on your visit here, due to the startling range of terrain - from the fertile north to the arid interior and desert south - which largely justifies the claim. The island is the third largest of the archipelago but accounts for almost half the population.
