Short, calm and easy to combine with beach time, lunch, Meloneras or a walk by the lighthouse.

Why choose Maspalomas for camel riding?

Maspalomas is the strongest search area for camel riding in Gran Canaria because it brings together the dunes, the lagoon, the lighthouse and the main south coast hotel zones in one place.

This is not a full-day mountain excursion. It is a compact outdoor activity that works well before lunch, after breakfast, or as the first step of a half-day plan around the dunes and Meloneras.

Near the main resort areas

  • Maspalomas hotels and apartments
  • Meloneras promenade and Faro area
  • Playa del Ingles tourist zone
  • San Agustin and Bahia Feliz by taxi or bus

Suggested complementary plan

Book the camel ride first, arrive early at Camel Reception, then continue with La Charca, Faro de Maspalomas, Meloneras, beach time or lunch. It is a simple way to turn a short ride into a complete Maspalomas morning.
