About this experience

This photo experience begins at the Maspalomas Lighthouse, one of the most iconic and magical spots in southern Gran Canaria. We’ll start with relaxed, guided photos around the lighthouse, using its historic architecture, Atlantic light, and vibrant atmosphere to create natural, emotional images.

From there, we’ll choose together how to continue your experience:

Exploring the Maspalomas Dunes for breathtaking golden‑sand landscapes, or

Strolling along the Meloneras Promenade at sunset, where warm light, ocean views, and gentle waves create unforgettable moments.

What makes this activity unique is the combination of flexibility, stunning scenery, and professional guidance that helps you feel comfortable and authentic.
