Airport Car Rental
One of the two main islands of the famous Spanish archipelago, Gran Canaria is a lovely place to visit. Home to the city of Las Palmas, it also boasts some of the nicest beaches that are accessible by low-cost European air carriers. Here are three of its most notable attractions:
- Maspalomas Dunes. One of the six officially protected areas of the island, Maspalomas can be found at the far southern end of the island. In addition to the captivating desert-like landscapes, the area has some lovely beaches and all-inclusive resorts that are just outside the preserve’s borders. There’s also a botanical garden.
- Las Palmas. Gran Canaria is all about the beach, but its capital can be just as interesting to explore. The largest city in all of the Canary Archipelago, Las Palmas is on the island’s northeastern coast. In addition to having some of Gran Canaria’s most notable architecture and cultural institutions, like the Elder Museum of Science and Technology, Las Palmas is also a prime surfing hub.
- Risco Caído. An archaeological inland site near the island’s western coast, Risco Caido is best known for the ancient cave dwellings that saw some of the earliest human inhabitation on the island, and a site that some even consider a prehistoric observatory. The site can be explored by following the network of surrounding hiking trails that also provide an experience of the area’s cliffs and unique vegetation.

Renting a car for the whole duration of our vacation, I should have done it way earlier. Normally I would be spending the same amount on a five day rent. Now I had it for 14 days. Great value for money.

We have lived in Cala Blanka, near Taurito beach. Every day we visited different beach by car, also we drove to Maspalomas Dunes, Aquapark and Shopping centre Las Terrazas . Anfi del Mar beach was the best, white sand, without waves. Beach de Amadores has sharp stones, it was unexpected. I recconend to buy food in Lidl. Total we have driven 300 km for 1 week. Our petrol bill was 25 euro.

Having a car to explore the island was a highlight of our trip.
Decide before you travel what approach you would like to take towards the deposit/excess waiver insurance. We saw our options were:
Independent Excess Insurance purchased pre-trip, which will be cheaper but likely involve more stress/paper work if a claim is required
Purchase cover directly from the car hire firm (which we noticed was cheaper to do at collection, rather than ahead of time) which will be more expensive but possibly easier
Accept that a deposit is at risk
We went with option 1, but a lack of trust in the car hire industry still made the hand over of the hire car a constant worry.
