    Hiking

    The Faro of Maspalomas was built from 1861 to 1889 and is 56 meters high. Initially, the beacon device was still operated with petroleum. From 1906 she was electrified. In 2005, he was declared a Historic Monument (Bien de Interés Cultural) by the Government of the Canary Islands.

    Hiking

    The Maspalomas Lighthouse rises on the south side of Gran Canaria, in the heart of a coastal area that ranks among the most popular holiday destinations in Europe.

    But Maspalomas is not only famous for its expansive dunes by the sea and its wonderful climate, but also for the old lighthouse, which stood here when the first tourists unpacked their suitcases and the coast gradually transformed into a popular holiday spot. Since the first visitors realized that beautiful weather was the norm here, the Maspalomas Lighthouse has witnessed thousands of sunny days, honeymooners, swimming adventures, and beach walks.
