Puerto Rico de Gran Canaria is a popular tourist destination on the southwest corner of Gran Canaria, one of the Canary Islands, a self-governing community of Spain. The town is based at the mouth of a valley between two mountains, and its main attraction is its gorgeous beach with clear blue waters and golden sand. I recently visited the area with my partner as we enjoyed a 7-night vacation here which we just loved!
Since the 1960s this former fishing port town has grown to become one of the most popular tourist destinations on the island providing a diverse selection of accommodation options, from budget-friendly apartments to 5-star hotels, and has a lively nightlife with a mix of restaurants, bars, and clubs.
On my trip here I stayed in Nido Del Aguila which was a 3-star hotel that was on top of a mountain that overlooked the Amadores beach and I had a great experience there. There are two swimming pools in the complex and the accommodation is more villa styled rather than a hotel which gives us a balcony looking down at the swimming pool with the backdrop of islands and other mountains!
Puerto Rico de Gran Canaria also provides a range of activities and attractions for tourists, such as water-based sports, boat tours, golf, hiking, jeep safaris, sightseeing, activity parks, and theme parks. The town is in the vicinity of other popular destinations on the island, such as Maspalomas and Las Palmas which makes it a perfect starting point to venture around the surrounding areas.
The climate in Puerto Rico de Gran Canaria like the rest of the Canary Islands is mild and sunny annually with temperatures in the summer months averaging 26-28 C and temperatures that rarely drop below 22 degrees in the winter. The town is easily accessible by car, and there is a bus service that runs frequently linking it to other parts of the island.
