      The dunes also called „little Sahara“ are just a fantastic landscape. I recommend the walking tour in the afternoon when the light is warm.
      End it before sunset at one of the beach bars of Maspalomas with a drinks and watch the sunset behind the Maspalomas Faro

        You have to see it in any case and is very impressive but very crowded.

          A feeling of the Sahara arises. Dunes as far as the eye can see

                                                Hiking through the dunes is a wonderful experience, this tour is guaranteed to stay in your memory for a long time.
                                                Either because of the effort or because of the beauty.
                                                In the midday heat you can't walk barefoot through the sand, it's scorching hot.
                                                Sandals are a must, but better still, sneakers, sunscreen, a hat and always enough to drink.
                                                If you also have your camera with you, you're well equipped.
