Small but very nice Spanish tapas restaurant. Go for "Lagarto Ibérico" (Iberian pork, it is the meat piece attached between the spine and the loin). For dessert, you won't regret ordering POLVITO URUGUAYO, a caramel, cream & meringue delight. Opening times: 13h-16h/ 20h-23h. It's usually very busy for dinner. Our tip! Be there at 19:55h. We most of Canarians have dinner as of 9pm. https://g.co/kgs/ACLxid

As they describe themselves, they are "a cafeteria with the soul of a bar". Although the menu seems to have been prepared to offer the best breakfasts in the area, if you look closer, you will discover one of the best "tortillas de papas" (potato omelettes) in the city, a delicious Olivier salad, fresh homemade lemonade and finger-licking good pastries! It has a very nice terrace, and although located in a narrow street, it is a quiet, free-of-traffic and little-travelled-by-pedestrians one. Oh! And they are laptop-friendly!

The old town: places of interest and good restaurants

The old town (Vegueta and Triana quarters) is about 5 kilometres from Playa de las Canteras (barely a 1-hour walk). If you go along the Avenida Marítima, a pleasant breeze and beautiful views are guaranteed. There are also direct buses, with stops at various points near the beach (do not hesitate to ask us!) for just 1.40 EUR. A taxi costs about 5 EUR. On Thursdays, starting at 7 p.m., many bars in Vegueta participate in the "Pinchos Night", where one can get a drink and a "pincho" (small tapa) for only 2 - 3 EUR. Unbeatable atmosphere!
Since joining the Crown of Castile in the late 15th century, the island, and especially its capital and port, have been the base of operations and a point of mandatory stopover in the Atlantic expansion of Spain. The Casa de Colón addresses the fruitful relationship of the island with the American continent, discovered and colonised from our coasts. https://g.page/casadecolon?share

Currently, they offer a varied assortment of dishes that continues in their line of keeping the mushroom as the main element ... Although not only that!

The South Coast: Beaches and Restaurants

If you want to get to the south coast and plan to visit many places in one day, then you'd better rent a car. Buses are useful only if you plan to visit one single place.

Northern Municipalities: places of interest and good restaurants

Mostly visited by Canarians, trade winds affect this area, so the weather changes quickly and the sun is not always guaranteed. But there are beautiful beaches, breathtaking views and very good restaurants. It is worth a day visit!
Typical Canarian town. Arucas offers visitors an experience of sensations that begins as soon as they arrive in its old town, which houses an interesting artistic heritage, of which its neo-Gothic "Cathedral" (Saint John the Baptist Church, beginning of the 20th century!) stands out. Traditional Canarian architecture, street market on specific days. Arucas is also knows as the City of Flowers. https://maps.app.goo.gl/mAvznWQgYCT2eBPp6

Archaeological site that helps to understand the history of Gran Canaria. The museum takes its name from the paintings in Cueva Pintada (Painted Cave), which we can enjoy nowadays after it has been adapted to the tourist visit. The museum building has been built on the remains of a Canarian aboriginal village. It offers the visitor the possibility of getting to know the indigenous houses and caves in detail, observing the excavation work from a large walkway that surrounds the village. www.cuevapintada.com https://g.co/kgs/pf4ZZ6

Seafaring village located 30 kilometres from the capital, on the northwest coast of the island. It preserves a traditional aspect and offers the harmony and beauty of a historic urban complex of white houses that sit on the slopes of its ravines. You can't leave Agaete without going down to the charming fishing village of Puerto de las Nieves, one of the most popular places on the island to savour fresh fish by the sea (see our recommendations below.) https://maps.app.goo.gl/FE8V1CQhdrS4BuN67

On the seafront and with the unique stamp of the Dedo de Dios (God's finger), a rock formation that resembled a finger pointing skyward, which was ripped out by a tropical storm back in 2005.

It is a Chinese food restaurant, in which all the dishes are cooked with the original recipes of the traditional cuisine of the country: beef with spicy sauce, cuttlefish with spicy sauce or eel soup, etc. All delicious. The staff is very friendly, especially the owner. It may be strange that I recommend a Chinese restaurant in Gran Canaria... but many say that it is the best on the island! Dare! https://bit.ly/3tkY3Uj
