2008: Gran Canaria

As we loved our first visit, we went back!

We booked with a tour operator instead this time and stated in Playa del Inglés so we were closer to the nightlife. Whilst this was true, it also was harder to get to the beach and Meloneras (which at the time we called the ‘posh bit’). We revisited the capital again as it’s very quick on the bus. There is a shopping centre and more commercial area to stop off at on the way as well if you want a break in the journey.
