You can walk into Las Palmas from Gran Canaria’s main cruise port. As you stroll through the Santa Catalina Park, you’ll enter a subtropical city where cafe-lined squares sit beside charming courtyards brimming with exotic flowers and palm trees.
But that’s not all. This ‘continent in miniature’, is also home to soft sandy beaches, rugged mountains, forests and even deserts, all packed within 600 square miles.

Why should you cruise to Gran Canaria?
Impressive landscapes
With so many landscapes found on one island, Gran Canaria offers plenty of adventurous experiences, such as a hike around the 3,000-year-old volcanic crater, Bandama Caldera.
Shopping
There’s also plenty of places to explore at your leisure. You can stroll along the golden sand of La Canteras beach and walk the promenade to browse the shops and boutiques along the beachfront.
History and architecture
Perhaps you’ll head to Poema del Mar, a popular aquarium located near the cruise port, or venture into the historical quarter of Vegueta, where the cobbled streets are lined with traditional Spanish architecture.
Sandy beaches
After an exciting day exploring Gran Canaria, before heading back to your ship you could hire a waterfront hammock and dose off to the sound of the waves rippling against La Canteras’ shore.

From here, you’ll head towards The Finca La Laja and Bodega Los Berrazales, a more than 200-year old farm known for its wine, coffee and oranges. You can learn about their coffee-making and wine-making process, and enjoy a tasting of both products.

The Bandama Caldera is one of the youngest volcanoes in the Canaries. And this active excursion will take you along the green paths into the heart of the crater to see an abandoned homestead, before ascending for spectacular views over the north of Gran Canaria.

On this rewarding excursion you’ll stop first to visit the epic Bandama Caldera. After taking in the views of the volcano, move on to explore more of the island’s highlights such as the old town of Teror and the beautiful Duchess Gardens.
Puerto de Mogan and Maspalomas
Sit back and enjoy some of the sights of Gran Canaria at a leisurely pace, with time at leisure to explore the picturesque resort of Puerto de Mogan. Start by heading south towards Playa del Ingles - the island’s main resort. En route stop at Maspalomas sand dunes with their rippling sands and sinuous curves. Your tour concludes with a visit to the resort of Puerto de Mogan, with its backdrop of hills, white houses festooned with Bougainvillea and beachside promenade.
