Gran Canaria is a great tourist destination. Europeans enjoy it the most because of the shorter distance to the continent. The attractiveness comes from its wonderful weather throughout the year and especially good during the Winter months – period when the island provides a nice relief and an energy boost from the sun and the extra Vitamin D running in our body. Temperatures are usually in the mid to high twenties (Celsius) in late December and early January.

The airport is located in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, which is also the capital city located in the northeast. Most tourist resorts are in the south of the island and this is most likely the place where you stay. While there are no trains in the island, the motorway (autopista) serves most of the island.

And here lies the best solution for your trip to Gran Canaria.
