Maspalomas

Gran Canaria

Maspalomas is suitable for quieter, family holidays. The resort is famous for its sweeping sand dunes moulded by winds carrying Saharan sands across the sea from Africa. The dunescapes are peaceful expanses and are particularly pretty at sunset. Enjoy meal times in the relaxed surroundings of Maspalomas - there are many eateries to choose from. Bordering Maspalomas in the south of the island, Meloneras is a quiet, upmarket resort and will appeal to those who want to totally relax and get away from it all.
Nestling above the beach, it boasts breathtaking views and a paved promenade, lined with an excellent choice of bars and restaurants, running the full length of the shoreline from the Varadero commercial centre to the Maspalomas sand dunes.
