With diverse scenery, reliable weather all year-round, centuries of history and a host of leisure and entertainment options, Gran Canaria is the hub of activity in the Canary Islands and a popular destination for all.

Situated off the coast of Africa, The Canaries still remain distinctly Spanish, and this is reflected in historical architecture found in settlements all over the island.

Las Palmas is the major city, centred around the bustling district of Vegueta. Home to the sweeping beaches of Playa de Las Canteras and Playa de Las Alcaravaneras, it also boasts many excellent hotels, restaurants and shopping districts. 

Gran Canaria car hire depots are scattered throughout the Island's main towns. A popular option by many UK tourists is Avis car hire. Las Palmas Airport is located in the north of the island. Gran Canaria car rental desks are located in the main terminal building, these include Avis, Hertz, National and Skycars. Collect your car hire keys here. 

The Triana main street is lined with remarkable buildings of great interest and just wandering the old district of Guiniguada is delightful for those interested in the local history with the Cathedral de las Palmas being particularly memorable. Similarly the 500 year La Luz Castle nestling in La Isleta bay is well worth visiting.

There are several museums of which the particular highlights are the Museo de La Ciencia y la Tecnologia (Science and Technology Museum) and the Casa de Colón (Christopher Columbus House), as well as the Centro Atlântico de Arte Moderno (Atlantic Centre of Modern Art).
