Maspalomas - The Place

Maspalomas on the southern coast of Gran Canaria is a firm favourite with many thousands of British holidaymakers. Its wonderful expanse of sand dunes, blown from the African deserts, is interspersed with rough green shrubs. Visit the beach at sunset and try to capture on camera the fantastically rich colours of the glowing sand.

There are six kilometres of beach so although the area near the centre becomes crowded there are plenty of secluded spots in the dunes. This is why Maspalomas is popular with naturists. A promenade runs along the beach from the town centre to the sand dunes. It is lined with bars, small restaurants and shops so refreshments are never far away.

Explore the dunes in authentic desert style on the back of the ‘ship of the desert’ and have a lofty camel’s eye view.
