Thanks to an injection of culture from Africa, China, India, and elsewhere, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria boasts an eclectic backdrop with a diverse personality. In Vagueta, the old district, boutiques rub shoulders with cool bars down winding lanes, whilst the hoot of taxis and bustling chatter of shoppers echoes off Moorish buildings and beyond. Around the thriving port area, the sunny languor and busy crowds give an air of North Africa, whilst the maze of streets that back onto the beautiful main beach are filled with delicious restaurants and quirky souvenir shops. There are plenty of sightseeing opportunities, but there is also an abundance of opportunities to just flop down on the beach and soak up the Spanish sun. Feel right at home with our apartments in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, a collection of cheap places to stay near the beach and the centre of the town.
Las Palmas de Gran Canaria is made up of several districts, each of which has its own personality and set of attractions to offer.
Vagueta is perhaps the most popular part of town. It's the oldest part, too, with rustic winding streets filled with authentic restaurants, cosy bars, and plenty of museums and galleries to explore. This is where you can explore traditional Gran Canaria life at its finest and get lost down rambling streets that open out onto hidden plazas.
Triana is also an old part of the city, but it is now Las Palmas' main commercial centre. The middle of the district has been pedestrianized and is lined with a large amount of retail outlets, fashionable boutique shops, chain stores, and upmarket shops. It's the perfect place for shopaholics, with a bit of something to suit everyone. There are also plenty of cafes, restaurants and bars in Triana, so you can refuel after a day of shopping.
Then there's Ciudad Jardin, an oasis in the bustling centre of Las Palmas. This region was founded by British residents who dominated the cultural landscape during the end of the 19th century. Here, you'll find a collection of embassies and grand residential houses with opulent designs. The most prominent part of Ciudad Jardin is Parque Doramas, a lush manicured park that boasts water features, quirky statues, hundreds of beautiful endemic flowers, and a swimming pool.
Set between Las Palmas' harbour and the beach there is Santa Catalina, a bustling district which is filled with large department stores, elegant boutiques, and specialist shops. At the centre of it all you'll find Parque Santa Catalina, a square patch of landscaped park that's peppered with palm trees. The area also has a rich nightlife scene with plenty of restaurants, bars, clubs, and discos to check out.
Playas de las Canteras is the city's beach area and one of the most touristy parts of town. The district is characterized by lots of hotels, shops, offices, bars, and restaurants, and is home to a fantastic urban beach with sprawling sands and shallow waters.
Finally, La Isleta is the old fisherman's quarter of Las Palmas. Located on a small, beautiful peninsula and built up a steep hill, it is a flurry of winding streets that come alive with street vendors, a mishmash of old shops, and numerous authentic bars. The Plaza Ingeniero Manuel Becerra sits at the centre, which is a lively square edged by a lighthouse and the harbour gate.
