Eternal sunshine, beautiful beaches, magnificent mountains, a cosmopolitan capital and a historic heart Gran Canaria has it all. Whether youre seeking a sub-tropical beach holiday, a city weekend getaway or a world-class hiking destination, with Eyewitness Top 10 Gran Canaria, its yours to explore.
Gran Canaria is an exciting amalgam of ancient and modern. Youll discover chic cafs in the cobbled streets of Vegueta, overlooked by the 15th-century cathedral. You can enjoy creative cuisine in the kitchens of top restaurants, then travel to the whitewashed mountain villages of Teror and Tejeda, where youll find menus featuring dishes that have changed little in centuries.
Gran Canaria is a hedonistic hotchpotch of cultures at the crossroads of Europe and the New World. You can walk through the sand dunes of Maspalomas at sunrise and imagine youre in the deserts of Africa. Alternatively, listen to Latin music spilling from the bars of Las Palmas and wonder if youre in South America, or immerse yourself in one of Europes liveliest nightspots, in Playa del Ingls.
Away from the beaches of its coastline, lies an ancient and mysterious land of sharp-toothed volcanoes, plunging ravines and heart-stirring panoramas. Clouds enshrine Roque Nublo, sapphire lakes glisten in the midst of Tamadabas pine forests, and families still find shelter in the ancient caves of Barranco de Guayadeque.
Whether youre visiting for a weekend or a week, our Top 10 guide brings together the best of everything the island has to offer. There are tips throughout, from seeking out whats free to avoiding the crowds, plus seven easy-to-follow itineraries, designed to tie together a clutch of sights in a short space of time. Add inspiring photography and detailed maps and youve got the essential pocket-sized travel companion. Enjoy the book, and enjoy Gran Canaria.

One of the capitals most delightful buildings is a wonderful museum where the main focus is the discovery of America. In the 15th century, the governors home stood on this site, though the building has changed considerably since then. While not certain, its very likely that this is where Christopher Columbus stayed in 1492 before he set off in search of a shortcut to India and unwittingly stumbled across America instead.
