Is it worth hiring a car in Gran Canaria?

Without a doubt, hiring a car in Gran Canaria is the best way to enjoy everything this island has to offer. Although public transport can cover basic journeys, many of its natural landscapes are far from urban centres and require greater flexibility to reach them.

Gran Canaria has a good road network, which makes driving around the island comfortable and safe. The GC-1 motorway connects the capital of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria with the tourist areas of the south, while the GC-2 runs along the north coast of the island. Furthermore, several clearly marked secondary roads crisscross the island's interior, leading to the summits.

Gran Canaria is known for its great variety of landscapes, ranging from impressive black and golden sand beaches to rugged mountains and charming rural villages. With a rental car in Gran Canaria, you can visit places like the Maspalomas Dunes, El Roque Nublo or the Guayadeque Ravine.

Many of the island’s most authentic and less touristy areas are far from bus routes, making a car essential to reach them.
