Puerto de Mogàn is a beautiful port located 20 mins west of Maspalomas. It is a medium sized port and seaside town with two small beaches located either side. In truth Playa de Mogàn is the Monaco of ports. It has a wide variety of and overlooking the quayside, with Crystal clear blue waters and an abundance of marine life on display. No joke, i actually witnessed a pigeon fight a crab for his piece of bread that was discarded onto the rocks by a passerby. Best, and most entertaining 5 minutes of my life. I even learnt that there's a fish called, and I quote, a 'bastard Grunt'. Please see pictures below if you dont believe me. It's a very chilled and picturesque port town, with houses that are reminiscent of Burano in Italy, with vibrant paints and symmetry that would make someone with OCD say 'Oh la la'. Prices in and vary, however because of the location, the cost is a bit pricier compared to other beaches. Prices range but average €14 -€20 for a meal here. The playa (beach in spanish) is a small oval shape located inside the breakers. Pros - less wind, no waves. Cons - no waves, quite busy for such a small beach. There are wc facilities and sunbeads if you dont like getting sand in your genitals. Array of along the so you are never short of beers + snacks. Stay the hell away from Playa de Ingles.
