Taurito Playa
Taurito Beach is located halfway between Playa del Cura and Puerto Mogán. The beach is compact and easy to overlook, and there is a colorful swimming area for children.
Puert de Mogan
Approximately 5 km from the property, Puerto de Mogán is a harbor town in the south of the island. The town developed around the Mogán harbor. Puerto de Mogán was constructed between 1983 and 1988 according to a design by Raphael Neville. Due to the canals that run from the harbor through the town, it is sometimes referred to as “Little Venice” or the “Venice of the South.”
Barranco del Cura
The Barranco del Cura and its surroundings also offer beautiful hiking and scenic viewpoints. The eroded riverbed, with its diverse plant life and remaining water spots, invites you to hike and wade. In one of the caves, a hiking guestbook is available—feel free to leave a greeting or a poem.
Hikes
LAS PALMAS
The city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, approximately a 50-minute drive via the motorway, is the largest city in the Canary Islands, with 383,308 inhabitants. The historic old town of Las Palmas was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1990.
Caves
Barranco de Guayadeque – From a distance, they appear like swiftlet nests on a cliff – dark openings in the rock. Yet these caves have been inhabited by humans since prehistoric times and continue to be used today. You can find them in several locations on Gran Canaria; some are even connected to the electrical grid, and in certain places, the entrance areas are built like conventional houses. However, the actual living spaces lie deep within the rock, providing pleasant coolness during hot summer days. In some of these caves, rock carvings from the indigenous Canarian people have been preserved.
Agüimes
Not only does the dome of the Iglesia de San Sebastián resemble a mosque, but while walking through the narrow, winding streets of Agüimes, you repeatedly encounter areas with an Arabian-inspired character. Today, this lovingly restored town is primarily a cultural center of the island. This is also reflected in the numerous sculptures that not only adorn the town center but also make for patient and charming photo subjects.
Mountains
Roque Nublo – Located in the interior of the island, Roque Nublo is one of Gran Canaria’s most iconic landmarks. Although it is not the highest mountain on the island, its approximately 70-meter-high finger-shaped basalt monolith makes it perhaps the most striking. For the ancient Canarians, it was sacred; rooted in the earth and reaching toward the sky, this mystical site served as a place of worship where they offered sacrifices to their sun god. Today, a hike to Roque Nublo is considered almost a must for every visitor to the island.
