Beach promenade of the PLAYA DEL INGLES in Gran Canaria

Parallel to the long sandy beach of  Playa del Inglés, are two long promenades, one promenade begins near the ROUNDABOUT. First you go up the stairs, then begins a long walk to San Augustin. On the half way you reach a passage with several floors, inside are restaurants and shops. At this passage is also a large bus-terminal, where buses arrive and depart to the AIRPORT 'Las Palmas de Gran Canaria' and to the big tourism-centers Maspalomas and Puerto Rico and to the nice touristic port Puerto de Mogan. Also at the bus-station is the HOTEL Tropical Garden with its garden-chess and nice swimming-pool.

In the opposite direction along the promenade you walk to the Dunes of Maspalomas and finally you reach the 4-STARS Hotel RIU. Here at the RIU begins the biggest street in 'Playa del Ingles' called Avenida de Tirajana. Walking at the beach from Maspalomas to Playa del Ingles you see always the far away and nice white building of the RIU-Hotel.
