Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico is a stunning area in Gran Canaria with a sheltered port and harbor area, lying west of Playa del Ingles. Only 20 minutes drive apart, the two resorts could hardly be more different and holidays in Puerto Rico are just as enjoyable, despite being so different this is just one of the factors that make holidays to Gran Canaria so popular.

Whilst Playa del Ingles is wild and vibrant, Puerto Rico Gran Canaria is much more laid back and relaxing. That is not to say it's dull. Far from it! Even though the pace is slightly more leisurely, the resort still has plenty of nice restaurants with local and international cooking, lots of shops and bars, and a good commercial center. Protected as if sitting in the palm of low mountains, the resort is a calm curve of glistening sea populated by a busy marina, filled with colorful and opulent sailing craft.

Holidays in Puerto Rico are tailor-made for sun lovers as the beach is beautifully sandy and soft (albeit man-made) and is a favorite haunt for watersports. It's perfect for windsurfing, sailing, pedaloes, and waterskiing and, of course, lying prone under a warm sun is permitted too! Puerto Rico enjoys a high volume of repeat business, a testament to its laid-back ambiance and friendly, warm atmosphere.

You can fly directly into Las Palmas airport and take a transfer to Puerto Rico which takes around 45 minutes. If you want to take a taxi directly to Puerto Rico it can cost around €50. Book your Gran Canaria holiday today with SuperValu Getaway Holidays!
