Gran Canaria is one of Spain's Canary Islands, off northwestern Africa. This is a small, beautiful island with gorgeous beaches made up of black lava seascapes and white sand beaches that give the essence of the Caribbean. Some of it's beaches include San Agust\u00edn, Anfi del Mar, Playa de Amadores and Gui Gui Beach. In the north, capital city Las Palmas is a major stop for cruise ships and duty-free shopping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gran Canaria is located in the Atlantic Ocean about 93 Miles (150 km) off the northwestern coast of Africa and about 840 Miles (1352 km) from Europe. Gran Canaria is also the third most populated island in Spain after Tenerife and Mallorca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This island is called a "miniature continent" due to the different climates and variety of landscapes found, with long beaches and dunes of white sand, contrasting with green ravines and picturesque villages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
