Is Gran Canaria right for you?
Gran Canaria combines large southern beach resorts with mountain scenery, villages and the city of Las Palmas. Resort choice makes a major difference: the south is focused on sunshine holidays, while the north and capital offer a more local urban feel.
When to go
The island attracts visitors throughout the year. Southern resorts are popular for winter breaks, while summer brings hotter weather and family demand. Temperatures, wind and cloud can differ across the island and at higher elevations.
