"Gran Canaria" a Isla de Gran Canaria Travel Page by DavyJB

Puerto de Mogan is the furthest resort on the south west coast and the most beautiful as well, it is also known as Little Venice due to the style of architecture and the little canals that link the harbour underneath the houses. It also doesn't have any high rise buildings which would take some of the charm away from the town.

Puerto Rico was the resort where we stayed for our holiday, it was a nice place to stay but for us it was better as a base to explore other places as we normally do on holiday.

We travelled to Palmitos Park with some friends and their children on the bus which was entertaining as the ride there seemed to take ages but the journey was worth it, the park is set at the top of a valley and the walk round takes you a good while the highlight of the park though has to be the bird shows which take place every hour alternating with parrots and tropical birds one hour and birds of prey the next with the narrator explaining everything 3 times in English, German and Spanish.
