Puerto Morgan flights and travel guide

A one-time fishing village, Puerto del Morgan is one of the prettiest resorts on Gran Canaria.

Travellers booking flights to Puerto del Morgan will discover a quiet and upmarket holiday resort with a beautiful beach and a busy local marina at which local boats, yachts and cruisers chug in and out. Activities such as sailing, jet skiing, fishing trips, boat tours and jeep safaris are all popular. Puerto del Morgan is also a great spot for diving. There are two wrecks in the harbour and the Morgan Caves where the sealife includes moray eels, yellow gunters and barracudas are about a mile away.

The original village of Morgan is 10km (6 miles) inland. Rural and quiet, it is a great place to dine on traditional Canarian fare.

While Puerto del Morgan might lack the lively nightlife of neighbouring Puerto Rico, there are some lovely bars and restaurants serving locally caught seafood. For a bigger night out, Puerto Rico is a short drive away, just 14km (9 miles).
