Gran Canaria

Cheap Gran Canaria holidays take you to one of Spain's Canary Islands lying in the Atlantic off the Northwest African coast. It is part of a volcanic archipelago which gives rise to its unusual landscape, where arid hills give way to fertile plantations and vineyards. The resorts, dotted around the coast, cater for all age groups. There are those suited to families and older couples, as well as those with a lively atmosphere which party into the night.

With a wonderful climate, where there are no extremes of temperature, holidays can be enjoyed both in the height of summer and in the depths of winter.

Gran Canaria wines are as pleasing to the palate as they are to the pocket. Most of the resorts are as relaxed in the evenings as they are by day.
