Mogan, on the sunny south-western side of Gran Canaria, is a relaxed corner of the island that suits couples and families looking for warm weather all year round. The Canary climate means dependable sunshine even in winter, which is a big part of its appeal for British visitors.

It is a calmer alternative to the busier resorts, with pretty harbours, sheltered beaches and easy access to golf and the wider south coast.

Where to stay in Mogan

The Anfi Emerald Club Hotel is a four star golf-adjacent resort set in Tauro near the Anfi Tauro Golf course, a good choice for golfers and anyone who wants a quieter base with the south coast beaches within reach.

Getting there and when to go

Flights from the UK to Gran Canaria take around four and a half hours, with transfers down to the Mogan area. The island is a true year-round destination, with warm winters that make it popular for sunshine breaks when the rest of Europe is cold.

Beaches and resorts

The south of Gran Canaria around Mogan offers calm, swimmable bays and a mix of sandy and pebbly beaches, many sheltered from the wind. Marinas and small resorts give a pleasant setting for a stroll and a meal by the water.

Food and things to do

Canarian cooking features fresh fish, wrinkly potatoes with mojo sauce and simple grilled dishes, alongside plenty of international options. Beyond the beach you can play golf, take a boat trip or explore the dramatic mountain scenery inland.

Who it suits

Mogan suits couples after a quieter sunshine break, golfers, and families who want safe beaches and a calm pace. It is especially good for winter sun.
