Maspalomas is the main tourist centre of Gran Canaria. An area that opens its doors to the world without forgetting its own tradition. A place to soak up the Canary Islands. Although its name sounds like Spanish, it comes from a phrase of the native Guanche language. Masəbbă-əluməs, which evolved into Maspalomas. The phrase means “that what soaks and spoils the fodder” in reference to the marsh of the Charco de Maspalomas. A name that is a story in itself. An invitation to soak up the good things, the culture, the place, the people, the fun.
