Cheap Holidays in Gran Canaria
Beach Holidays
The Canary island of Gran Canaria is roughly circular; it has an average diameter of just over 30 miles and raises to the 6,400-ft Pico de las Nieves at its centre. Gran Canaria lies around 120 miles off the west coast of Africa and offers all year sunshine – especially in the south of the Island. The landscape is varied with barren cliffs cut by deep gorges, mountains, desert scenery and tropical valleys.
The capital is Las Palmas and has a major port and airport which connects to the south of island via motorway. The main resort is Playa del Ingles which translated means “the Englishman’s beach” and during the peak season the name is 100% correct. The Brits just love it and keep coming back for more sun, sand and San Miguel’s. It has a wide sandy beach which runs from San Agustin in the north to Maspalomas in the south. Playa del Ingles offers tourist everything they could ever possibly need for a lively holiday including a very busy nightlife, bars, restaurants and ample shops. For those holidaymakers looking for a more sedate experience should opt for either Puerto Morgan or Arguineguin which are both old charming fishing villages.
