Las Palmas is a bustling metropolis and the capital of Gran Canaria, one of Spain’s Canary Islands. The city is fascinating with its historic centre dating back to the 16th century and modern high-rise buildings towering over the beachfront. Las Palmas is a great place to people-watch, with a vibrant mix of locals and tourists enjoying the sun, sand and sea. The city is also a great base for exploring the rest of Gran Canaria, with plenty of hiking and mountain biking trails in the nearby hills and a wealth of restaurants, bars and nightlife.

I really like Las Palmas! It is a bit messy with a surprising amount of traffic for such a small city, but the nice vibe easily makes up for it. It was such a relief to get here after 10 days in Puerto Rico on the southern part of the island. Suddenly we met locals, menus were no longer in 5-7 languages, and the city felt like a city, not a large resort for northern europeans that want everything to be like at home, except better weather and cheaper food and drinks. My favorite thing about Las Palmas is the lively alleys with so much delicious food. I don't think we had a bad meal in 5 days! I highly recommend the restaurants Allende Puerto and Mr. Kale. People are very friendly, the city is pretty, and the sun shines almost all of the time. It is possible that we somehow benefited from the pandemic with very few tourists compared to normal, hard to say how thing are during a normal year.
