About Gran Canaria

Gran Canaria is a round volcanic island in the Atlantic, nicknamed a miniature continent for its dunes, ravines, pine forests and mountain peaks.

Gran Canaria rises from the Atlantic to a rim of peaks, and it has been called a continent in miniature because it holds desert dunes, green valleys and cool forests within a short distance. Las Palmas, on the north-east coast, is the island's capital, with the old quarter of Vegueta, its cathedral and the Casa de Colón, where Columbus is said to have stayed. Las Canteras beach runs for three kilometres along the city.

Top-ranked sights in Gran Canaria: Bandama Caldera (Caldera de Bandama), Roque Nublo, Vegueta.
