Gran Canaria Cruise Port: Is the South Coast Worth the Trip?
Gran Canaria Cruise Port: Is the South Coast Worth the Trip? If you have one day in Las Palmas, is it worth traveling south to see Maspalomas and Puerto de Mogán—or should you stay closer to the cruise port? 🌴 GRAN CANARIA TOURS & SHORE EXCURSIONS: https://viator.tpo.mx/6laG86sC With a long port day in Gran Canaria, I chose to leave Las Palmas and explore the island’s south coast. In this video, I’ll show you what I found at Maspalomas, Playa del Inglés and Puerto de Mogán, what the journey from the Las Palmas cruise port was like, and the tradeoffs of traveling farther during a cruise port day. If you’d rather stay closer to the ship, I’ll also cover several options near the Gran Canaria cruise port so you can decide which kind of port day fits you best. 🚢 Subscribe for practical cruise tips, port-day ideas and travel information: ➡️ https://bit.ly/3EGWMhU 📌 HELPFUL TRAVEL RESOURCES I PERSONALLY USE: An alternative to expensive CRUISE WiFI (best for light use). ✳️ 🔗 Try GigSky here: https://plans.gigsky.com/5GSPPN/2CTPL/ =============================== 📱 Stay connected when traveling internationally. * For LAND TRAVEL ONLY, I also use Airalo* Airalo eSIM – 15% off for new customers: https://airalo.pxf.io/c/6112206/2071037/15608 Airalo eSIM – 10% off for existing customers: https://airalo.pxf.io/c/6112206/2071038/15608 ===================================== 🌍 Travel medical insurance ➡️ https://bit.ly/4iG6a5d *I rely on Safety Wing Nomad Insurance for my international trips, especially when traveling solo. ====================================== 🛍️ My Cruise & Travel Shop — gear and travel essentials: https://shopmy.us/shop/wynbon 🌐 More cruise tips and travel guides: Website: https://bonvoyagecruisetravel.com Instagram: https://instagram.com/bonvoyage1_ 📩 Business inquiries: bonsvoyage1@gmail.com CHAPTERS: 00:00 Las Palmas Cruise Port: Is Going South Worth It? 00:38 Gran Canaria Drive South & Changing Scenery 01:38 Maspalomas Dunes & Resort Area 03:48 Puerto de Mogán: Market, Beach & Marina 07:32 Gran Canaria Coastal Drive Back to Las Palmas 08:33 Back at the Cruise Port: Was Going South Worth It? 09:39 Las Palmas DIY, Viator & Near-Port Options 11:21 Gran Canaria Cruise Port: Final Thoughts Hi, I'm Bonnie.
