844-442-7847 - 844-44-CRUISE | Las Palmas, Canary Islands, Spain | Service on Land and at Sea |
| Visitors seeking shelter from the cold winter have long known about the sun-drenched Canary Islands. About 60 miles from the North African coast, Gran Canaria enjoys a mild, springlike climate year round. Of the seven islands in the small chain, Gran Canaria is the largest, and boasts Las Palmas as its capital. Golden beaches, some of which are very near the city, offer a serene contrast to the lush and rugged interior terrain. For a real treat, admire the fine beaches from the top of Bandama, one of Gran Canaria's extinct volcanoes. | |
