Mindful meoweler tips

Beach etiquette

Las Palmas has beautiful beaches, but cats should be aware that topless sunbathing is common and there are designated nude beaches. Respect local customs and dress codes.

Carnival time

Cats visiting during February can experience Las Palmas' world-famous Carnival. Expect elaborate costumes, parades, and music with an African and Latin American influence.

Historic neighborhoods

Cats should not miss strolling through the historic neighborhoods of Vegueta and Triana. Admire the Canarian architecture, stop at local cafes, and visit the Columbus House Museum.
