GRAN CANARIA BEYOND THE BEACHES: 5 UNIQUE EXPERIENCES YOU DON'T EXPECT!

When you think of Gran Canaria, the first image that comes to mind is surely his golden beaches and the Maspalomas dunes. 🌊 But what if I told you that this island has much more to offer? 😏

Here is 5 unique experiences that will make your trip unforgettable (and that very few tourists know about!).

1️⃣ Sleeping under the stars ✨

Book a Eco Domus in the campsite of Tasartico and admire the starry night from your cottage by the ocean. It is a very special experience to spend a night under a starry sky without light pollution.

2️⃣ Taste the coffee... on an old plantation ☕

Gran Canaria is the only place in Europe where it is cultivated Arabica coffee! Ad Agaete, in the north of the island, you can visit the plantations, find out how it is produced and sip a cup of coffee. We recommend a guided tour with tasting at the Finca la Laja y Bodega de los Berranzales.

3️⃣ Sailing with dolphins and... singing with them! 🐬

Gran Canaria is a hotspot for the sighting of dolphins! And know that if singing or whistling could respond with their sounds! Take a boat from Puerto Rico o Puerto de Mogán and get ready for a close encounter with these friendly friends of the sea. Ask us for info if you want help planning the tour!

4️⃣ Discover a western movie village... in the middle of the Atlantic! 🤠

In Gran Canaria there is a village in perfect style Far West? A Sioux City Park, you can watch cowboy duels, horse shows and even be “arrested” by the local sheriff. A perfect experience for young and old!

5️⃣ Visit a mini Sahara in the middle of the ocean! 🌊

The Maspalomas Dunes are one of the most incredible sights on the island. Seeing the dunes at sunset is a fabulous experience... it's like being in the Sahara desert, but with the ocean just a stone's throw away!

In short, Gran Canaria is much more than sun and sea! Explore it with curious eyes and you will discover an island full of unexpected surprises! 🎒
