Conoce la conectividad, el coste y la vida cotidiana para nómadas digitales en Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.
Las Palmas de Gran Canaria is a vibrant and cosmopolitan city that extends along the northeast coast of the island. It is a city of fascinating contrasts: on the one hand, the spectacular Las Canteras Beach, an urban paradise for swimming and walking; on the other, the historic neighborhood of Vegueta, with its cobblestone streets and colonial architecture. With a climate considered one of the best in the world and a rich heritage as a bridge between Europe, Africa and America, Las Palmas is a destination full of life, culture and Atlantic flavor.
