A “continent in miniature”: dunes, pine forests and year-round sun.

Gran Canaria packs a lot into one round island: the golden dunes of Maspalomas, the rugged mountain villages around Roque Nublo and Tejeda, and lively Las Palmas with its city beach. Mild temperatures make it a classic winter-sun destination.
