Resort description:
Puerto de Mogan is a picturesque resort and fishing village in the municipality of Mogán, set at the mouth of a steep-sided valley on the south-west coast of the island of Gran Canaria. Canals linking the marina to the fishing harbour have led to it being nicknamed "Little Venice" or the "Venice of the Canaries". The beach has a very good reputation and is ideal for couples and families alike. A variety of outstanding restaurants and bars fringe the marina (scene of current Jet2 Holiday TV Advert) and the beach front, allowing you to enjoy the spectacular sunsets thought by many to be the "best in the Canary Islands".
Puerto de Mogan attracts visitors for its beauty and relaxed vibe. Every Friday it is also host to the finest and largest market on the island, spanning from the Avenue to the beach, harbour walls and as far as the lighthouse bar, where you can enjoy a refreshment and splendid views along the coastline. Other visitors to the resort include the likes of A list actors Jason Statham and Demi Moore, as well as Spanish footballer David Silva.
