It may be unbelievable, but beach visits on Gran Canaria are not so easy for the ambitious visitor.
The beach of Maspalomas is fantastic for us – in the evening. We are not one of those people sitting in the strong sun for hours. At our laziest days we stayed until three hours at [...]

To be precisely, nearly all streets on Gran Canaria are old paths for us, because we drove all of them more or less at earlier visits.
