I'm a tourist, here for a week in Northern Gran Canaria, and it seems nearly all young people walk hand in hand with their partner. Which I definitely don't see in Germany as much. Is it just more of a romantic culture lol
Hi all,obviously we've done some research before booking but looking for personal expenses, we are staying close to jumbo centre and like to explore off the complex, is there any areas/spots we need to avoid *
I saw some interesting thing at several of the shops in Puerto Rico mall. Many of the stores (mostly the one at the end of the mall) sells cannabis, gummies etc. and I didn’t think that was legal? Or is it just fake stuff they are trying to sell? I thought you had to go to “clubs” to buy stuff like that.
Is there an English book store somewhere on gran canaria or a large book store with a lot of English books? Im going on a holiday to gran canaria soon and I just like buying books but I do wanna be able to read them ofcourse haha, im staying in playa del Ingles but I did rent a car and wanna drive around the whole island so distance isnt an issue at all
Hey, I am considering to relocate to Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Is there a community for video games, boardgames, in general nerdy stuff?
I would bring my dog, and come with the plan to start a new life. Originally from Germany, 36 y.o. male
Hello! visiting Gran Canaria next week, very excited to explore the island. We will be staying is Las Palmas but are looking for a day pass at a resort/spa where we can use the pool/sauna and get a massage. Any recommendations on a website to find stuff like this/ good options? Thanks!
I come from one of those lucky nowegian families where our parents lived in a great economy and can afford vacation home in our country as well as join the timeshare cult.
This means that i have free accommodations this November, going to Anfi Del Mar. I've not been here since i was 14.
My parents, my fiancé and me, 7 days (saturday -> saturday).
Unfortunately, my parents are not people i usually would do activies with. They are a bit oldschool and only love hiking and stealing good sunbeds early in the morning.
Therefore my fiancé and me need to plan our escape plans.
Luckily we are going to rent a car.
Currently having a lovely chat with ChatGPT about activities, ranging from day long road trips to other parts of the island to smaller events both near and far.
Activites ranging from childish thing i love like gocarts, waterparks, daydrinking and more, to sophisticated activites such as art galleries, romantic spots and fine dining.
I feel i have the grasp of the basic activites the island offers, like going to Maspalomas dunes.
But what i crave is the not so known activities and destinations.
This is where you, reddit, come in.
If you have the time and knowledge, i would love to get tips on destinations we should put inside our google maps plans.
If you made it this far on this post, thank you for your time.
Hallo zusammen,
Wir sind im Oktober mit kleinem Kind (1j) auf Gran Canaria. Was empfiehlt ihr für einen Transfer vom Flughafen nach Maspalomas zum Hotel?
Wir haben 3 Koffer und brauchen einen Kleinkindersitz für unsere Einjährige.
Taxi? Oder gibt es andere Möglichkeiten? Wenn ja, wo?
Und was denkt ihr wie teuer das ungefähr ist pro Fahrt?
Grüße
Sé que no tengo el mejor currículum del mundo...: no tengo carnet de conducir, llevo un piercing que por nada del mundo me puedo retirar ya que no se me ha curado, y no tengo a penas experiencia en casi ningún sector.
No paro de escuchar el típico "esque debes estar día tras día echando cv o no te va a salir nada", "quien no trabaja es porque no quiere"... La verdad ya resulta un poco deprimente.
Tengo más de 24 años y en mi vida he trabajado remuneradamente. Esto lo escribo un poco como queja/desahogo pero la pregunta la dejo ahí. ¿Tan imposible es trabajar mínimamente de forma decente sin ser por cuña?
Hey everyone!
I’m currently living and working here in Gran Canaria. Back home in Italy, we have a big tradition of spending the night of August 15th (Ferragosto) on the beach around small bonfires.
I know open fires on beaches are generally restricted, but I wanted to ask if is this tolerated at all for this specific date if we move further away from the main cities to more hidden spots? Or is it a hard NO island-wide with strict fines regardless of the location?
I definitely want to respect local laws and nature.
Thanks a lot for any tips!
Hi I was wondering if anyone can help me find the special glasses for the solar eclipse tomorrow?
I’m staying in Puerto Rico and have tried all the shops here but no luck. Can anyone help? Please
Hi! We are planning to visit Gran Canaria at the end of November. We have two kids (1 and 5). Do you think November would be great month to visit? What’s the weather usally? Is there any activites to do if there are rainy days?
I'm going on vacation from late September through October to Maspalomas. Do you have any tips for renting a car that isn't too expensive? Which companies should I avoid or choose?
Thank you for helping :)
