Just got back.

Place is heaving with Scandis but, as previous poster said, A lot less Brits and Germans about.

PR main CC was very busy on the two nights I ventured up there

Why do so many scandinavians go there? I dont remember noticing them before in the canaries. The flight i booked from Dublin for 24th -31st(not even part of kids hols) is practically booked out; Maybe people tryin to escape doom and gloom of all this recession talk

this might seem a daft question....but what are the scandics like....never been canary ilses before...but booked to go playa taurito in july....are they like the germans....

Hi Tweety Pie,

The Scandies are fine, Nothing like the Germans. You probably won't find too many in July as they tend to go in Oct/Nov & Feb/Mar

Hi,

We will be going to Gran Canaria too heading out on 6th July to the Maspalomas Princess Hotel and very much looking forward to my holidays. I am new to the forum and have been reading all the reviews etc. We were in Gran Canaria just over 3yrs ago so looking forward to visiting again.

I think it will get a lot more lively from the beginning of July. There seems to be loads going out on the 6th (me too :cheers ) and that is the first week of the Scottish School Holidays, and the Edinburgh 'Fair Fortnight' so I reckon it won't be a problem.

Every other forum I've been on says that in July it's always busy no matter what. Anyway, I'll be there, so I couldn't care less if anyone else is, I'll be on my holli-bobs!! :tup :cheers

Went in July this year and although it was quieter than a few years ago, nightlife was still fantastic and plenty of deals to be had :D
