Taurito is a tourist resort located on the island of Gran Canaria, between Puerto Rico and the picturesque fishing village of Puerto de Mogán. Book one of our getaways to Taurito to enjoy a real holiday – disconnect and relax on the idyllic beaches in a natural setting of great beauty.
Undoubtedly, the jewel in Taurito's crown is its beach, an oasis of peace and tranquillity away from the hustle and bustle of other large holiday centres. Not to worry however, as when you get tired of tanning in the sun and cooling off in the crystal clear waters of this beach (activities which admittedly are hard to tire of), you can go to one of the nearby bars or restaurants in the vicinity to have a cold drink and some delicious papas con mojo picón – jacket potatoes with a traditional spicy sauce.
You can also visit Mogán beach, which is much livelier, with a nice harbour in the background to stroll around after a day spent sunbathing. This beach is also perfect for a wide range of water sports, with diving equipment and motorbike rental and much more.
In Taurito, the star of the show is the water, as another of its main attractions is the Lago Taurito Water Park. This is the perfect place to spend a day with family or friends, sliding down its many slides for all ages and burning off excess energy.
During your stay you can also channel your inner Indiana Jones by exploring the Cañada de los Gatos archaeological area. This small coastal settlement built on a strategic site grew to become a perfect example of pre-Hispanic island archaeology and is of great scientific interest. What better way to add a cultural note to our Taurito holiday packages?
To get to Taurito, you should fly into Gran Canaria airport. Once there, take a guagua ─ as the buses in the Canary Islands are known ─ to Puerto Rico and then another bus or a taxi to Taurito. As you can see, it is very easy to enjoy a getaway to Taurito. Do you have your bags packed, ready for a dream holiday?
