Gran Canaria Timeshares

Cacti, succulents that look like roses, Canary Island wallflowers, unusual dragon trees, and more incredible plant life will make you feel as if you've truly entered another world. In fact, Gran Canaria is home to about 700 species of plants you won't find anywhere else. You may find interesting animals hiding amongst those plants. While most of the fauna of Gran Canaria are small, they offer huge amounts of intrigue. Reptiles and birds are especially numerous, and include the rare blue chaffinch, Gran Canaria skink, Boettger's wall gecko, and—of course—canaries.

Woodlands, deserts, mountains, and valleys all have a place in Gran Canaria. The island offers a fantastic array of terrain for hikers to explore. Scenic areas worth visiting include Barranco de Guayadeque, Caldera de los Marteles, Dunas de Maspalomas, and Los Tilos de Moya. Of course, there are many more—too many to list!

A huge variety of live entertainment can be enjoyed with Gran Canaria timeshares. Classic dance clubs with pulsing techno as well as more unique places playing anything from grunge to blues can be found. Lips Feelingroom is a unique 1920s-style speakeasy, The Paper Club is a spot popular among young people boasting a diverse array of music, and El Gallinero Cafe Arte is the ideal spot for experimental performance—including magic shows—and coffee.

There's nothing quite like a beach flanked by dazzling cliffs, like Play de San Felipe, or Playa de Guayedra. A beach like Playa de Sardina del Norte, where visitors with Gran Canaria timeshares can swim beneath multiple levels of colorful buildings, is a treat as well. Playa del Puerto is attractive in its isolation, and Playa del Inglés is excellent for those who enjoy more bustling beaches. Whatever kind of beach you prefer, you'll find it with a Gran Canaria timeshare.

Timeshares in Gran Canaria make it possible to check out museums unlike any other. The Casa-Museo Santiago Aranda allows travelers to see cave houses from different time periods and admire the ingenuity of the people who adapted architecture to the rocky landscape. Cueva Pintada is a living museum where you can visit an ongoing archaeological dig and see the most recently found artifacts. The Museo Canario teaches visitors about the ancient history of the island and its people, while Museo Elder is a fun science museum for adults and kids.

Foodies and picky eaters will both enjoy the dining possibilities of a Gran Canaria timeshare. Salty wrinkled potatoes with mojo rojo, a sauce made with a base of red pepper, cumin, olive oil, and garlic ensnares the senses. So do sweet churros, fresh papaya, and fried bananas. You'll also find plenty of locally produced rum and wine!
