Palmitos park
Palmitos Park is one of Gran Canaria's finest attractions. The Palmitos park is perfect for your second day on the island. The first day you have in following the Scandinavian tradition most unlikely become powerful sunburnt. This is a walk in Palmitos Park is a great alternative to the beach.
The Palmitos park has the greatest focus on birds but also has wide range of reptiles, fish and plants. The Palmitos park is located a short drive into the country from Playa del Ingles, I will assume 15-minute drive. There are also bus and coach tours organized by travel companies. Taxi can also be an option.
I would particularly recommend the show on the park's highest point. There are several daily show with a hawk, eagles, and parrots. The show is well directed.
