Gran Canaria
Gran Canaria''s more than the sum of its famous beaches, where holidaymakers assume the horizontal position to lap up one of the world''s most-celebrated climates. It''s not hard to see why capital Las Palmas de Gran Canaria was named after the island''s palms. They are here, there, and everywhere. If you think of active sports in GC, you''ll probably think of diving and surfing. But head to the island''s interior to climb. It''s even possible to ascend Roque Nublo, Gran Canaria''s iconic Cloud Rock. Little wonder GC''s dubbed the miniature continent.
