If you choose five towns on
Gran Canaria at random – Arucas, Agaete, Mogán, Agüimes and Teror – you can find that the island is a miniature continent. It ranges from farming and fishing to tourism, from humble cottages to mansions, and from breathtaking cliff roads to modern highways. In an area of less than 1,600 square kilometres it is incredible to find such
