If you choose the right place for taking pictures, the similarity to the Canaries in general can not be. A few simple steps to the beach will send you straight to the Caribbean))). So why not take a tempting offer 2 in 1 ?!))) Personally, I did just that!

The water here is so pure that you can see wandering flocks of colorful exotic fish. Underwater variations so captivate and capture that involuntarily want to stop and watch the concert virtuoso classical performance in the major musicians underwater kingdom.



But my favorite place among all this beauty on the edge of the world - an impressive panoramic view of the tourist area of ​​Maspalomas.

Do not think that cacti on Gran Canaria only beautiful bloom! Island evergreen thorns gave a second life))). Ordinary appeal of this plant becomes a truly royal and simple bloom light magic wand of time turns into an exotic fruit - Cactus figs!


To evaluate the palatability of the unusual gift of nature, you have to show ingenuity and resourcefulness.

But if you like to experiment, so why not spend and this ?!)))
