CANARY ISLANDS (LAS PALMAS, GRAN CANARIA) SPAIN
The third largest of Spain's Canary Islands, off northwest Africa, Gran Canaria is sometimes referred to as a "continent in miniature" due to the wide variety of topography. The interior is rural and mountainous with high black lava peaks and deep valleys, while the rugged coastline boasts endless white sand beaches and dunes. ShoreTrips' Gran Canaria Driving and Walking Tour takes you to all of these topographical wonders, from busy seasides to the top of the mountain.

Fabulous floral displays, rich agricultural fields, Old Canarian architecture showcasing 17th century houses of mud and stone, churches and town squares are all your for the taking. In and Around Gran Canaria will take you there.
