San Fernando de Maspalomas

The district of San Fernando was built from the 1970s for civil servants and people working in the tourist industry.

It is delimited by the old main road, GC-500, to the south and by its successor, the GC-1 motorway, to the north.

San Fernando is not the typical destination for tourists, although Playa del Inglés is within walking distance.

The main street Avenída de Galdar in the east of San Fernando was refurbished in 2014.

There shops, restaurants and cafés cater to tourists arriving on foot or by taxi.
