Guide Playa del Ingles / Maspalomas Gay Beach Gay
Miles of golden-sand beaches (and famous Maspalomas sand dunes), scorching summer heat with beach weather all through the winter, dozens upon dozens of gay bars, restaurants, shops and clubs most situated side-by-side in two big commercial centers in Playa del Ingles & the mediterranean men are perhaps the main attractions here but the island has so much more to offer.
Located south of the island, along a sandy beach of 7 km, extended by a vast area of dunes, Playa del Inglés has become for several years as one of the main gay destination in Europe. Playa del Inglés is the most animated part of Gran Canaria with its delicious minute restaurants, its well-known gay compexes enjoy 'Yumbo', its gay clubs and discos that make this destination very trendy with gays from all over Europe.
The high season goes from October to May: There are various poles of attraction and many activities, it depends on the months: in January it is the festival of gay and lesbian cinema, in March it is the carnival: Las Palmas Carniv
Gay Gran Canaria
Having read a local article today about a post deleted off Tripadvisor for being homophobic, I thought I'd experiment and clear things up a minute for anyone who has either a) heard Gran Canaria and particularly Playa del Ingles is full of gays, outnumbering hetero couples 2 to 1 or b) hold no idea that anywhere on the island caters for the gay market.

About Gran Canaria, Maspalomas & Playa del Inglés
Gran Canaria is by area the third largest and by population even the second largest of the Canary Islands. It is geographically closer to Africa than to the Spanish mainland. The climate of Gran Canaria is strongly influenced by the trade winds, whereby the north of the island is often cloudy, rainy and much cooler than the south, which is caressed by dry winds from the Sahara and where it therefore only rains on an average of 6 days per year and an ›eternal spring‹ dominates with temperatures of 18 to 27°C.

Gay Gran Canaria
Playa del Ingles in Maspalomas Gran Canaria is one of the most adj gay destinations in Europe. Why? Because the sun is shining mostly all year round, the dunes are more crowded than a shopping street at Saturday afternoon and the Yumbo Center offers you more gay fun per square meter than any big city!
Gay nightlife
The gay part of Gran Canaria is in the south of the Island, in Playa del Ingles. Which is part of the Maspalomas municipality.
A gay holiday in Gran Canaria is all about the gay beach during the day, or the hotel pool of one of the many gay resorts. And party at night, in one of the many bars and clubs in the Yumbo entertainment center.
