Travel to Playa Taurito with us

Playa Taurito is a small resort situated on the south western coast of Gran Canaria that is ideal for those who want to embrace the more relaxed side of the island.

Located in a coastal valley around 15 minutes away from the more vibrant resort of Puerto Rico, Playa Taurito is home to a dark sandy beach surrounded by clear blue waters that are perfect for families.

For most of the year, you'll enjoy fine weather with warm temperatures and plenty of sun, whilst the levels of rain throughout the year are relatively low.

Although the resort has just the single beach, it’s a great place to relax – particularly given that it is quieter than many of the other beaches on the island.

The sheltered nature of the beach helps to keep it protected from the elements and means the waters off the coast are perfect for taking a refreshing dip.

Snorkelling and diving are just two of the water-based activities that are available off the coast.

Aside from the beach, the main attraction for people visiting Playa Taurito is the Parque Acuatico Oasis Lago, a saltwater waterpark with a selection of water slides to keep kids of all ages occupied as well as providing plenty of sunbeds for relaxing and non-slide saltwater pools if you just want to have a swim.

You can enjoy a range of sporting activities within the resort, head out to sea on a fishing or diving trip or, for the ultimate in relaxation, visit the local spa to undergo one of a range of beauty treatments.

Evening entertainment tends to be more towards the relaxed end of the scale, with a visit to Puerto de Mogan or Puerto Rico offering the chance to embrace the most action-packed evening scene.

If there is anything of a downside, then it comes in the fact that the transfer time from the airport is longer than some of the other resorts on the island although that comes down if you elect to hire a car during your break - which also offers the opportunity to then explore the surrounding area with ease once you've arrived.
