Mogan

About Mogan

Mogán is a relaxed fishing village known for canals and beaches, and Puerto de Mogán gives Spain’s Canary Island of Gran Canaria a distinctly maritime character.

Whitewashed lanes, flower-filled balconies and small bridges give Puerto de Mogán a calm coastal feel that suits couples.

The marina, Playa de Mogán and the Friday Market shape easy days, while boat trips follow the coast and the Barranco de Mogán leads inland. Four to seven days is a typical visit, with Puerto de Mogán the natural area for accommodation and waterfront meals featuring fresh seafood or papas arrugadas con mojo.
