Why hire a campervan or motorhome in Gran Canaria
Gran Canaria — a region worth exploring
Gran Canaria's circular shape spans just 50 kilometres in diameter, yet it packs over 60 beaches and a remarkable range of microclimates that have earned it the nickname 'miniature continent.' From the towering Roque Nublo, a volcanic basalt monolith standing at 1,813 metres, to the sweeping dunes of Maspalomas stretching across 400 hectares of golden sand, the island rewards exploration at every turn. The drive from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria in the north to Puerto de Mogán in the south covers roughly 85 kilometres along the GC-1 motorway, while the scenic inland route from Tejeda to Artenara — two of the island's most elevated villages — is only 10 kilometres but winds through dramatic volcanic calderas. Coastal roads hug cliffsides in the west, and wide motorways connect the busier southern resorts, making the island well suited to both campervans and larger motorhomes. The historic quarter of Vegueta in Las Palmas, a UNESCO-listed district, and the Jardín Botánico Viera y Clavijo, the largest botanical garden in Spain, offer cultural stops between beach days. With Yescapa, you can hire a vehicle directly from local owners across Gran Canaria, choosing from a range of campervans and motorhomes that let you move freely between coast, mountains, and quiet rural villages at your own pace.
Best time to visit
Gran Canaria enjoys mild temperatures year-round, making it a destination you can visit in any season. Spring brings the colourful Fiesta del Almendro en Flor in Tejeda, usually in late January or February, celebrating the island's almond blossom. September sees the Fiestas del Charco in La Aldea de San Nicolás, a unique traditional fishing festival. Summer is the most popular period for campervan travel, so booking your vehicle on Yescapa ahead of time is a smart move. Autumn and winter offer quieter roads and pleasant daytime temperatures around 20–24°C, ideal for exploring the mountainous interior. Hire outside peak months and you will often find better availability and more competitive peer-to-peer rates across the island.
The best road trips in Gran Canaria
To help you plan your trip, we have selected six unmissable road trips, suitable for all travelers.
North Coast and Mountain Villages
350 km 6–9 days

Then climb into the highlands via Valleseco and Teror. Around 350 km for 6–8 days. Gran Canaria's green north offers plenty of pitches surrounded by lush vegetation.

This route follows Gran Canaria's southern coast from Maspalomas through the fishing village of Arguineguín to Puerto de Mogán, often called Little Venice. Around 80 km, ideal for 3–4 days in a campervan. Along the way you will find pitches near beaches and can explore the Maspalomas dune landscape at leisure.

What you need to know about roads and motorways in Gran Canaria
Gran Canaria's main motorways — the GC-1 (south) and GC-2 (north) — are toll-free and well maintained, connecting Las Palmas with the southern resorts. Speed limits for motorhomes over 3,500 kg are 80 km/h on motorways and 70 km/h on secondary roads, while lighter campervans follow standard car limits of 120 km/h and 90 km/h respectively. Inland roads such as the GC-60 through the central highlands are narrow and winding, with tight hairpin bends that suit smaller vehicles best. Rest areas with parking bays are available along the GC-1, though they are less frequent on mountain routes. Fuel stations are plentiful around Las Palmas and the south coast but sparser in the interior, so fill up before heading into the highlands.
Frequently asked questions

Gran Canaria has a number of dog-friendly beaches, including Playa de Bocabarranco near Las Palmas and Playa del Águila in the south. Check the pet policy with the owner beforehand and bring a blanket or seat cover to keep the campervan or motorhome clean during your trip.
Prices for hiring a campervan in Gran Canaria vary depending on vehicle type, season and equipment. Through Yescapa you can find offers directly from private owners on the island, often starting from around €60–90 per day for a compact campervan. During the low season between October and March, rates tend to be lower. Because Yescapa connects you with private owners, you can save compared to commercial operators and choose the vehicle that fits your budget and Gran Canaria itinerary.
Most vehicles on Yescapa are available for collection in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, the island's largest city and capital. You will also find offers from private owners in Maspalomas and Vecindario in the south. Some owners offer handover near Gran Canaria Airport (LPA), making arrival especially straightforward. Through the Yescapa platform you can arrange the pick-up point directly with the owner anywhere on Gran Canaria.
To find an affordable vehicle in Gran Canaria, it helps to be flexible with your travel dates. During the low season from October to March, prices on Yescapa are often noticeably lower. Book as early as possible to choose from a wider selection of campervans and motorhomes. Compare different offers from private owners on the platform – some provide discounts for longer hire periods. A smaller campervan can also be a cost-effective option, especially on Gran Canaria's winding mountain roads.
For couples or solo travellers, a compact campervan is ideal – it is nimble on Gran Canaria's winding mountain roads and easy to park. Families with children or groups of three to four are well suited to an overcab motorhome, which offers more berths and storage. On Yescapa you can find vehicles from private owners across Gran Canaria sleeping two to six people. Bear in mind that narrower vehicles are more comfortable to drive on the western coastal road GC-200 and through the highlands.
What our users say about our campervans and motorhomes in Gran Canaria
Andrea
5 / 5
Feeling right at home Traveling across Portugal with Koda was a perfect, unique, and wonderful experience ☺️ Carina and Rafaela met us right at the airport and explained everything about the van—covering every detail clearly and effectively. We had never taken an off-the-cuff trip like this before; without any set plans, we drove all the way to Sagres, navigating easily through narrow roads, campsites, and stunning beaches 😍 Its compact size makes it comfortable to drive almost immediately, allowing for effortless maneuvering even on narrow roads, whether driving uphill or on light off-road terrain. The van is fully equipped: it has kitchenware, a sink, a convenient handheld shower, and even a solar shower, plus two camping chairs and an easy-to-assemble table. The bed is incredibly comfortable, and when not in use, it converts into a small bench. It was easy and delightful to feel right at home during this vacation; we can’t wait to return to Portugal to explore the north with Koda 🧡

Absolute pleasure to host this group of three! Everything went completely smoothly from pickup to return. They treated the camper with great respect, followed all guidelines, and kept in touch throughout the trip. Reliable, responsible, and friendly—10/10 renters, highly recommended to any owner on Yescapa!

O Tiago e a Bruna foram impecáveis - cuidaram muito bem da carrinha ao longo de toda a viagem e a comunicação foi fácil do início ao fim. Adorei partilhar a experiência de van life com eles, numa carrinha que estimo tanto - foi também uma boa experiência para nós. Obrigada, Tiago!

Our experience with Ivan and Tamara was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end. They were incredibly kind, friendly, and helpful, and supported us with many things throughout our trip. The motorhome was excellent, extremely clean, comfortable, and fully equipped with everything we needed. Ivan and Tamara also kindly picked us up from the airport and took us back at the end of our trip. They and their family welcomed us so warmly that we immediately felt at home. This was much more than just renting a motorhome—we arrived as guests and left feeling that we had made wonderful new friends in Switzerland. It was an unforgettable experience, and we would definitely rent from Ivan and Tamara again without hesitation. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for an excellent motorhome and genuinely caring hosts. Thank you, Ivan and Tamara, for your kindness, hospitality, and friendship. We hope to see you and your lovely family again soon!
