Introducing Gran Canaria's famous five.
Strolling around the cobbled streets of Vegueta, where the twin towers of Catedral de Santa Ana dominate the skyline, feels like stepping back in time. For you're walking in the footsteps of Christopher Columbus. Visit the Ermita de San Antonio hermitage, where a kneeling Columbus prayed prior to setting sail.

Three, it's the magic number. For there's Mógan, the south-west municipality which enjoys the best weather on GC as the south is sunniest and the west clearest. Then there's Puerto de Mógan, a stylish resort dubbed Little Venice for its intricate canals and Mógan, a picture-postcard whitewashed village.

Australia's got Ayer's Rock, Ireland, the Blarney Stone, and Gran Canaria, Roque Nublo. Cloud Rock seems a little bit of an odd name. Usually, because you can see for miles and miles from this famous vantage point. Walk there from La Goleta car park, located on the Ayacata-Pozo de las Nieves road.

The famous dunes have been a nature reserve since 1897, although scientists theorise they only date back to 1755 when a Lisbon-born tsunami hit GC. The Faro de Maspalomas, however, is a 68-metre tall man-made landmark. Although visitors are more attracted by the 2,710-metre-long beach.
