Maspalomas is a large resort on Gran Canaria's south coast which is a firm favourite with holidaymakers, and it's not hard to see why. This sprawling resort is home to a fantastic array of beaches, including a glorious Blue Flag beach that stretches for around six kilometres. It's behind this golden beauty that Maspalomas' most famous feature - its Sahara-like sand dunes - are found. These fabulous dunes are a protected nature reserve, and after wandering uphill and down-dune for a while you'll soon forget you're on an island at all. It's just like stepping into a desert, and you can take camel safaris across this golden expanse too, which adds to the spectacle. It's a great place to chill out with a book, grab some great photos or just go and say you've "been there". Just make sure you remember your way back out! For something a little more upbeat, there's a fantastic waterpark close to Maspalomas and the resort is also home to a lively fun park complete with a ferris wheel, bumper cars, rollercoasters and carousels. It's great fun for kids (and big kids too) so if you fancy a little light entertainment, don't miss this classic fairground attraction. When it comes to accommodation, you'll find a fantastic selection of hotels at Canarias.com.
