Gran Canaria – an island of possibility

There are so many reasons to holiday in Gran Canaria, you really need to visit to see for yourself.

As with all the Canary Islands, Gran Canaria boasts a comfortable climate all year round – even in December the temperature can reach a balmy 19 degrees centigrade.

Gran Canaria is located 130 miles off the North African coast in the Atlantic Ocean, making it a highly accessible destination from the UK and indeed, the whole of Europe. Its location contributes to its warm weather, and a flight to Gran Canaria is far shorter than travelling to Cyprus, for example.

Gran Canaria holidays offer an abundance of activities, from beach holidays with calm waters for families, to coves that offer water sports of every description for the more adventurous. With miles of sandy beaches to explore, you won’t be disappointed if you are looking for a beach holiday in Gran Canaria.

For those seeking vibrant nightlife during their stay,  Gran Canaria holidays have much to offer. The south of the island has hundreds of bars and clubs to satisfy your thirst for fun, with plenty of likeminded individuals to party your nights in Gran Canaria away with.

Travel to the north of Gran Canaria for a more sedate, relaxed holiday. The scenery is far more rugged, and the mountains are truly breathtaking. If you enjoy walking, the cooler temperatures in this part of Gran Canaria offer an ideal environment.

Gran Canaria also prides itself on its world class golf courses, you’ll be spoilt for choice when you realise the quality that the island has to offer.

Whatever holiday you’re dreaming of, Gran Canaria really does offer everything.
