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.

THE Gay Beach in Gran Canaria - So if you hear about the "Gay Beach", it is this part of the beach.
The beach was formely known by its kiosk - The No. 7
Now it is located between Chiringuito No. 5 & 6
Sunloungers and umbrellas are for rent - Otherwise there is also enough sand beach in front of the sea to lay down.
The only negative is the partly strong wind, which makes lying in the sand sometimes a bit uncomfortable.
The Gay Beach Beach can be reached either by foot from the Faro (lighthouse) of Maspalomas, along the sea towards Playa del Ingles, on the left side.
(in around 15 minutes) or:
From the Hotel Riu Palace Maspalomas across the Dunes of Maspalomas - You depend on to follow the way marked with wooden posts.
