Holidays in Gran Canaria – A wide range of resorts

Playa del Inglés Situated about 30 minutes drive from the airport, Playa del Inglés offers a superb beach  of very fine, golden sand, gently leading to an always blue, peaceful sea. Playa del Inglés is  a large development with hotels, apartments, bungalows and villa's. Playa del Inglés is by far the liveliest resort on the island and is a honeypot for the young and lively crowd. There is a vast array of shops, bars, clubs and restaurants to cater for the tourist. Warning. It can get lively. Puerto Rico is around an hours drive from the airport and is a modern  development with apartments, hotels, villas and bungalows. The town is encircled by hills and has one of the best sunshine records on the island. The main attraction is its beautiful man-made beach with lovely soft sand imported from the Sahara. The beach has a gentle slope to the sea and is therefore ideal for young children. The resort also offers minigolf, floodlit tennis, water park, a bowling alley, horses and a yacht harbour for over 55 boats. The resort has great shops, bars and restaurants where most late-night entertainment takes place. Warning. The majority of Puerto Rico is very hilly with more steps than you could ever count. It would therefore be unsuitable to those who are less mobile and to young children in buggies. Arguineguin is an old charming fishing village located about 2 km from the touristy Puerto Rico on Gran Canaria. Arguineguin is at the south of Gran Canaria and it is said that this is the place in the world with the best micro climate and most sunny hours a year. This little village lies near El Perchel Point. Patalavaca beach has fine golden sand. It is the best area for deep sea fishing and there are the service facilities necessary for this kind of sport. There are several good fish-restaurants, harbour and boardwalk.
