The Sea

Because that is another of the reasons for the island’s success with fans of deep sea fishing from around Europe. In Gran Canaria, you can fish all year round. The climate is pleasant all through the year. That is perfectly true. The best time of year to fish for marlins and tunas is from May to November. Anyway, the hustle and bustle of crews leaving harbour can be seen all year round, heading out to the best fishing grounds, between the areas known as Punta de Maspalomas and a place called Punta del Descojonado, close to the Aldea de San Nicolás coastline.

In this place on the Gran Canaria coastline is where the marine happiness meters record the highest indices for this part of the world. On any day of the year. The recording of fishermen’s happiness stands no comparison, at least not until another 3 or 4 meridian later. And this is what we have to tell you about, though the Blue Marlin and the Needle Fish may not concur.
