However, the winter and spring months around Christmas, half-term and Easter are often busier, as the increased likelihood of sunshine draws in tourists seeking a warmer winter respite. Whatever season you choose, Maspalomas remains an ideal destination with its beaches, attractions, dining options and unique activities awaiting your arrival.
