The sun shines year-round on this lovely island, where you’ll enjoy a welcome as warm as the weather. Good times are always available around the fun-loving beach resorts. The bar-filled commercial centres of popular Playa del Ingles are fun day or night, while Meloneras is the place for swish boutiques and waterside dining.

You can slow the pace among the leafy boulevards of Maspalomas, with its family-flavoured attractions and sensational sand dunes. But it’s well worth exploring inland too. Authentic towns will greet you with coffee-drinking locals and peaceful town squares, and rugged rock formations call for adventure.

Our choice – Puerto Rico

With its big sandy beach and round-the-clock fun, Puerto Rico caters to families and party-seekers alike. A hillside of stacked-up, whitewashed buildings adds character all around the sweeping shoreline, and there’s plenty to get stuck into among the waves, too. It’s sheer beachfront beauty all wrapped up.

Our hotel choice:

IG Hotel Nachosol & Yaizasol Atlantic (4 star)
