As the name suggests, Cactualdea Park is a sort of botanical garden focusing on the display of hundreds of species of cacti, more precisely, 1,200 of them. Several palm trees and dragon trees peg out the garden strategically, but visitors should rest assured: there is much more to Cactualdea Park than meets the eye. Thus, the Guanche cave is one definite highlight of the park. Furthermore, the tempting restaurant located in the park, as well as the large cellar might complement the visits of those who want to indulge in gastronomic and oenological samplings. On top of that, the park attains its peak of popularity during the so-called Lucha Canaria, which is hosted by the generous amphitheater of the park.
Tenerife, El Hierro, La Palma, Lanzarote and Fuerteventura count as chief trip destinations within the Canary Islands for visitors of Gran Canaria.
The fame of the Maspalomas Sand Dunes Nature Reserve is enhanced due to the fact the site was absorbed in the gay tourism circuit of Gran Canaria.
The alternatives in terms of how to get from Gran Canaria to El Hierro are rather limited, since the sea and air line companies linking the two are fewer.
