Why hire a campervan or motorhome in Gran Canaria
Gran Canaria — a region worth exploring
Gran Canaria's 236 kilometres of coastline wrap around an almost circular island that rises to 1,949 metres at Pico de las Nieves, creating microclimates so varied the island is often called a miniature continent. From the towering sand dunes of Maspalomas on the southern tip to the volcanic caldera of Bandama in the north-east, the landscape shifts dramatically within short distances — Las Palmas de Gran Canaria to Maspalomas is just 55 km, yet the drive takes you from a bustling Atlantic port city to sweeping desert-like terrain. Inland, the Roque Nublo monolith stands at 1,813 metres, offering panoramic views across the island and, on clear days, all the way to Mount Teide on neighbouring Tenerife. The Barranco de Guayadeque, a deep ravine carved into the eastern slopes, shelters cave dwellings and endemic flora found nowhere else on Earth. Driving from Agaete in the north-west to Mogán in the south-west covers roughly 85 km of winding mountain roads that reward every turn with new vistas. Gran Canaria suits campervan travel particularly well: compact enough to cross in a morning, yet rich enough to fill weeks of exploration. A motorhome gives you the freedom to wake up beside a black-sand beach one day and a pine forest the next. Through Yescapa, you hire your campervan directly from local owners across the island, choosing from a range of vehicles that match your group size and travel style — a genuinely personal way to discover Gran Canaria at your own pace.
Best time to visit
Gran Canaria enjoys mild temperatures year-round, making it a fantastic campervan destination in any season. Spring brings the colourful Fiesta de la Rama in Agaete each August, while the famous Las Palmas de Gran Canaria Carnival in February is one of the largest in Spain. Summer and early autumn are the busiest months, so booking your Yescapa hire ahead ensures you secure the perfect vehicle. Winter is wonderfully warm compared to mainland Europe, with daytime highs around 20 °C — ideal for exploring mountain trails and coastal roads without the crowds. Campsites across the island remain open all year, giving you flexibility whenever you choose to visit.
The best road trips in Gran Canaria
To help you plan your trip, we have selected six unmissable road trips, suitable for all travelers.
North Coast and Mountain Villages
350 km 6–9 days
This 350 km route loops from Las Palmas through Arucas, Firgas, and Teror before climbing to Cruz de Tejeda. Drop down to the west coast at Agaete and return via the GC-2. Allow 6–9 days to enjoy Gran Canaria's green north and its mountain villages at a relaxed campervan pace.
Southern Coast Loop
80 km 3–5 days
An easy 80 km loop ideal for a first campervan trip in Gran Canaria. Start in Maspalomas, roll through Arguineguín and Puerto de Mogán, then return along the GC-1. Three to five days lets you soak up beaches, harbourside dining, and golden dunes without rushing.
Volcanic Highlands
120 km 3–6 days
Cover 120 km across Gran Canaria's volcanic interior over 3–6 days. Drive from Santa Brígida up to Pico de las Nieves, visit Roque Nublo, and descend through the pine forests of Tamadaba. A compact motorhome handles the winding highland roads comfortably.
Full Island Circuit
300 km 5–8 days
Circle Gran Canaria in 300 km, linking Las Palmas, Gáldar, Puerto de Mogán, and Maspalomas. Five to eight days gives you time for coastal walks, market visits, and mountain detours. Campsites are well spaced around the route for convenient overnight stops.
Ravines and Coastal Trails
500 km 8–11 days
Stretch 500 km across Gran Canaria's ravines and shores over 8–11 days. Explore Barranco de Guayadeque, Fataga, and the cliffs near La Aldea de San Nicolás. This route suits a campervan and rewards slow travel with dramatic landscapes and quiet overnight spots.
Gran Canaria in Depth
550 km 10–15 days
At 550 km over 10–15 days, this is the ultimate Gran Canaria road trip. Combine coast and mountains — from Agaete's natural pools to the dunes of Maspalomas, with detours to Tejeda and Artenara. A motorhome gives you the space and comfort for a longer adventure.

Most sites provide electric hook-ups, fresh water, waste disposal, showers, and toilets — everything you need for a comfortable stay on the island.

What you need to know about roads and motorways in Gran Canaria
Gran Canaria has a well-maintained motorway network connecting the main towns. The GC-1 runs along the eastern and southern coast from Las Palmas to Mogán, while the GC-2 heads north-west to Agaete. Motorways on the island are toll-free, so you can travel freely in your motorhome without extra costs. Speed limits for vehicles over 3,500 kg are generally 80 km/h on motorways and 70 km/h on dual carriageways. Inland roads are narrower and windier, particularly through mountain passes — take your time and use lay-bys to let traffic pass. Fuel stations are plentiful along the coast but sparser in the highlands, so fill up before heading into the interior.
Frequently asked questions
Yes — a number of Yescapa owners in Gran Canaria welcome pets on board. You can filter for pet-friendly vehicles when searching, and each listing clearly states the owner's policy. Gran Canaria has several dog-friendly beaches, including Playa de Bocabarranco near Las Palmas, so your four-legged companion can enjoy the trip too. Always confirm details with the owner before booking to check any size or breed guidelines.
Prices on Yescapa typically start from around £60–£90 per night for a compact campervan in Gran Canaria, while larger motorhomes may range from £90 to £140 per night. Because you hire directly from local owners through our peer-to-peer platform, rates are often more competitive than traditional hire companies. Prices vary by season, vehicle type, and how far ahead you book — reserving early usually gets you the best deal.
Most Yescapa owners on Gran Canaria offer pick-up in or around Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, the island's capital and main port. Some vehicles are also available near Maspalomas and Telde, giving you flexibility depending on where you arrive. You arrange the handover directly with the owner, so you can often agree on a convenient meeting point close to the airport or your accommodation.
To find affordable hire in Gran Canaria, try travelling outside the peak summer months or during autumn and winter when demand is lower. On Yescapa, you can filter by price, compare vehicles from different local owners, and message them directly to discuss your needs. Booking well in advance also helps lock in a better rate, and choosing a smaller campervan rather than a large motorhome keeps daily costs down.
For couples or solo travellers, a compact campervan with two berths is perfect for Gran Canaria's winding mountain roads and smaller coastal car parks. Families of four or five are well suited to a mid-size motorhome with more living space and storage. On Yescapa, you can filter by berth count and vehicle dimensions, and owners are happy to advise whether their vehicle fits your planned route around the island.
