Puerto de Mogán, often referred to as the "Venice of the Canaries," is a picturesque village with several hidden gems that are less frequented by tourists. Here are some of these lesser-known attractions: 

Veneguera Beach 

  • This is a protected natural area and one of the untouched beaches in Gran Canaria. It's known for its difficult access, which keeps it less crowded and more pristine 

Lomo de los Gatos (The Cats Back) 

  • An archaeological site featuring ancient stone houses, offering a glimpse into the early settlements of Gran Canaria. It provides a more authentic experience away from the commercial areas. 

Cruz de Mogán 

A scenic viewpoint offering breathtaking panoramic views of the rugged landscape around Puerto de Mogán. It's a cultural and historical symbol, often associated with local traditions 

                           Mirador de Puerto de Mogán 

  • This viewpoint offers sweeping views of the village, valley, and sea. It's a short hike up 257 steps, rewarding visitors with stunning sunset vistas 

Veneguera Village 

  • A small, beautiful village nestled amidst striking landscapes. It retains its rural charm with lush vegetation and is not fully developed, making it a peaceful retreat. 

These hidden gems provide unique experiences that showcase the natural beauty and cultural heritage of Puerto de Mogán, away from the more popular tourist spots.
