Interesting facts about this location
Puerto Rico de Gran Canaria
Puerto Rico is a specially constructed holiday resort situated on the south-west coast of Gran Canaria. The island's proximity to the African continent ensures an ideal climate, particularly in the winter, when the temperatures remain constant at around 20-25°C. The volcanic origins of Gran Canaria are very apparent in the island's coastal ruggedness and contrasting verdant interior.
