Tauro - reportedly the warmest location on Gran Canaria
|
|
That embodies Gran Canaria for the tourist.
Beaches, dunes, hotels, large pools,
and noble appartement-complexes ...
and just everything else what belongs to a real vacation and relaxation.
Sun, sand, sea, good food,
leisure, sports, amusement, tours ...
|
|
|
Maspalomas . . .
for many the embodiment for vacation
on Gran Canaria.
Here almost everybody is engaged in tourism.
|
|
Bathing, waterski, golf, horseback riding,
diving, surfing, hiking, biking,
mountain climbing, parachuting,
paragliding, sailing, deepsea fishing,
jetski, camel safari . . .
everything what your heart desires -
and all of this all year round!!
|
|
|
 |
|
 |
|
|
 |
... And this is the real island.
Here the fauna and flora
is so diversified like on scarcely no other island in Europe.
|
The fewest visitors (and residents)
of the Canary Islands know, that Gran Canaria has the second largest harbour in the Atlantik.
Las Palmas de Gran Canaria
is the capital of the island with its harbour.
And only a few kilometers going up country
you'll instantly find the idyll of the villages.
Vitality and humaneness.
Precipitance prevails only in the city.
|
For all nature-lovers
a real paradise!
... and yet pretty close to Northern Europe.
4 hours to Germany -
that really is no distance.
|
 |
An exceptional subcontinent.
The unique mild climate and a nearly perfect
infrastructure makes this island an ideal destination for holidaymakers.
|
 |
 |
For all nature-lovers
a real paradise!
... and yet pretty close to Northern Europe.
4 hours to Germany -
that really is no distance.
|
 |
The Roque Nublo,
the landmark of Gran Canaria.
|
If the weather is clear you have a magnificent view-
(e.g. to Tenerife with its Teide)
|
|
... and not to forget the
produce!!
something surely suits your taste.
All year round fresh fruits and vegetables, fish and seafood in a rich variety . . .
|
Here, many plants are growing wild,
which many tourists from Northern Europe
only know from their local market-gardens.
yet it is just a little Africa
|
 |
|
In no case I may forget to mention the "Fiestas".
Nowhere in Europe I have seen so many Fiestas within one year
like here on the island!
People here are living -
every day -
and always with each other!
|
 |
|
The country and its people . . .
I could write a lot more about it,
if you have not seen it - every word is useless.
