Gran Canaria

Gran Canaria is the number one holiday destination for scandinavians. Unfortunately, that shows. It’s packed with tourists everywhere.
But if you’re looking for sandy beaches, a pulsing nighlife and nothing but lazy days, this is the place for you.

In Gran Canaria, make sure you go to Puerto Rico if you like being in a tourist based place, because it’s made for tourists, with great hotels and white sand beaches and big brand stores. It’s not the place for you if you want to see natural Gran Canaria.

Although the island is beautiful the hotel and beach area that I stayed in were covered in Cockroaches, unfortunately they are the first thing I think of when I think back to the holiday.

We stayed in Puerto Rico but I’ve also stayed in Maspalomas. Puerto Rico has good night life and sport fishing, while Maspalomas has a great beach.

as i said… no coffee. but 3 day’s before the vacation ends i found a nice little café, with not perfect but drinkable coffee. thank god! not if you pay me 1 mil. i will go back , well maybe ;)

I LOVE GRAN CANARIA. I WENT THERE ON MY HONEY MOON FOR 2 WEEKS IT WAS AMAZING I LOVED LAS DUNAS AND THE CAMELS. THE FOOD WAS AMAZING THE PEOPLE WERE AWESOME.

Had a lovley holiday here with my boyfriend however I wouldn’t recommend it. We were staying in a nice hotel in San Agustin just out of playa del ingles (thank goodness!). Playa Del Ingles is very british, a bit like a big blackpool.

We spent most of our time at maspolamas, which was lovley with some very nice reseraunts.

Gran Canaria has beautiful weather all year round, great nightlife and beautiful beaches. Maspalomas is well worth a visit as is the market at Arguinegan

from what i remember at the age of 5 :)

i’ve just realised that although i’ve seen more of europe most of my friend did, it’s such a small part of the world. i don’t know, it seems weird going to only 43 places – i want to go everywhere!

at the conference in iceland we met this great couple from gran canaria and they invited us over for a visit. i’m thinking we should go asap! :)
