Puerto de Mogan

Puerto de Mogan

Puerto de Mogan – The small village in the south of Gran Canaria. Easy to reach with the local bus system. You dont need a car to go there. There are less parking possibilities in Puerto de Mogan and its a small village so you can do everything there by foot. I went there wit the local bus direct from Maspalomas. Its about halt an hour. Just for a day trip. Its a nice little village for relaxing, drinking some coffe or walking around. They have a lot of flowers there, white painted houses with blue doors. The bay beach is wind and waves protected, so take your swimming things with you.

The beach side of Puerto de Mogan

Puerto de Mogan, the small beautyfull fishing village in the south west of Gran Canaria. With the white painted small houses, alle Palms and flowers around, Puerto de Mogan realy looks like it was just build for travel catalogue pictures. OK not all of Puerto de Mogan looks realy nice. There are also some „Cement Castles“ as we call in germany the quick buils tourism hotels of the 80th. But they are a little bit away from the coast side of the village. Fot the most people its important how the beach and the water area looks like. And I can say. beautyfull. The beach and the harbor are man made, not natural as in Maspalomas. Because of that the beach of Puerto de Mogan is sheltered from the wind and the water is a little bit warmer. Its perfect for a nice day trip. To have a little swim, a good meal, and to walk around. We have been there with the public bus system. It works very good on Gran Cararia and it is cheap.  But please, take a look at the pictures and you wiill see what I mean.
