The third largest and the second-most populated of the Canary Islands, Gran Canaria is one of the most scenic islands in the Canaries. Within a surface area of only 1,560 square kilometres, diverse landscapes present a variety of micro climates, earning the island the nickname “Miniature Continent,” and providing a variety of options for Gran Canaria holidays.
Gran Canaria holidays can include a visit the verdant Canarian Botanical Garden – which features a collection of all the plants and trees native to the entire Canaries archipelago – or can include a hike up to the town of Tejeda, located at the island’s summit, 1,949 metres above sea level. Other Gran Canaria holidays never leave the beaches, which are among the most beautiful in the world.
Whatever your choice for Gran Canaria holidays, Canarian Dreams can make it happen. Our staff are well-seasoned travellers themselves, with an extensive knowledge of all the Canaries. We have established connections with the best villas and resorts, and can offer holiday travellers a wide variety of accommodations. Canarian Dreams specialises in Gran Canaria holidays with a focus on seaside activities, from swimming and surfing to clothing-optional sunbathing.
The beaches of Maspalomas are the most famous of the Gran Canaria beaches – perhaps of all the Canaries. Just a few minutes away from the island’s city of Meloneras, with its restaurants, resorts, promenade and scenic lighthouse, is the Maspalomas Natural Dune Reserve, featuring an enormous, breath-taking expanse of rolling sand dunes. Beaches stretch for kilometres between the dunes and the sea, some populated, some secluded, some favoured by surfers, some favoured by nudists.
Canarian Dreams offers accommodations near the beaches, from affordable bungalows with air-conditioned bedrooms, to luxurious private villas with all the amenities – some can sleep as many as sixteen. When visiting the Canary Islands, Canarian Dreams can facilitate transportation, as well as any number of services, including arranging activities such as surfing. Our knowledgeable staff stands ready to make all your island holiday dreams come true.
