Meloneras - The Place

Care must be taken of children, and less confident swimmers should swim parallel to the shore. An Attractive promenade frames the beach. It has many cafes, bars and shops providing day long refreshments. Meloneras restaurants provide a diverse cuisine and cater for most tastes.

Meloneras Shopping

One of the attractions of shopping in Gran Canaria is that goods are virtually tax free and there are many opportunities to spend a few euros in Meloneras.

Meloneras Eating

Meloneras has a good number of restaurants serving a diverse menu, including international cuisine. Fish features prominently on menus often accompanied by mojo, a spicy pepper salsa, and salted potatoes. A good way to sample Spanish food is to order a plate of tapas which consists of a medley of bite-sized dishes. Tapas are also ideal for filling the sometimes long gap between lunch and dinner, which is served later in the Canaries than at home.

Children are always made very welcome in restaurants and their tastes and portion sizes are usually accommodated.
