EXPLORE GRAN CANARIA Gran Canaria is an island of enormous natural wealth, which is formed in part by its outstanding and plentiful high quality beaches, of which the vast majority have white sand and some are unique in the world. Culturally speaking, Gran Canaria is synonymous with mixed races. This characteristic has been inherited from its historic condition as a traveller’s cross-roads and the fact that it is a society that is naturally open to anything that may come from the high seas. The passing of time has left a wealth of great archaeological, artistic, architectural and ethnographic value, testimony to the cultural evolution of this insular community. A historical wealth has been passed on from the island identity that has been enriched and accompanied by many cultural and artistic displays that bestow upon the island some singularities that are unusual in such a small territorial space.
