The Maspalomas Lighthouse is located in the south of Gran Canaria, in the heart of one of the most visited coastal strips in all of Europe, the
Maspalomas Dunes.

accommoda#ons and hotels and resorts in the southern part of the island are located.

Desde que aquel viajero primigenio comprendió que el buen tiempo era la norma en esta kilométrica playa, el Faro de Maspalomas ha sido
testigo de miles de días de sol, lunas de miel y paseos junto al mar.

Since that original traveler understood that good weather was the norm on this kilometer-long beach, the Maspalomas Lighthouse has
witnessed thousands of days of sun, honeymoons and walks by the sea.
The Maspalomas Lighthouse dates back to 1861 and whose works lasted for 28 years. At that time the place was an uninhabited area, cut
off from the rest of the island. Its first light was lit in 1890 to serve as a guide for the ships that covered the route between Europe and
America, and it was the only existing construction between the three kilometers that separated Playa del Inglés from the Oasis of
Maspalomas.
Today everything has changed around him. Now this lighthouse is located at the beginning of a busy walking area, a boulevard full of
shops, restaurants and leisure areas, ideal for strolling in the moonlight or enjoying endless views of the sea.
A few meters from this walk begins the Maspalomas Dunes Special Natural Reserve, a huge protected natural space of exceptional value.
From the Maspalomas Lighthouse to Playa del Inglés, three kilometers of dunes separate the nudist area from the rest of the beach. Surfers
find their place right on the curve that connects Maspalomas with Playa del Inglés.

A few steps from the Maspalomas palm grove you will %nd the protected space around the pond; a natural space that appears between the sea
and the sand, a res#ng place for hundreds of migratory birds. Next to it begin the in%nite %elds of dunes, which con#nually change in shape
shaped by the wind.
Many things have changed since 1861, but Maspalomas con#nues to be the perfect place to enjoy the sea or sunny days. The shadow of its
lighthouse also remains the same, which previously watched over the ships crossing the Atlan#c and now envies the bathers who spend their days
under the Maspalomas sun.
