You roll onto the seaside promenade as the Atlantic wind pushes the palms and the golden dunes loom ahead, daring you to cross them. The route threads coastal boulevards and safe cycle paths, then slows at a mirador with a broad view of Playa del Inglés and the ragged line of sand. After a guided pedal you trade two wheels for the slow, steady gait of a camel and spend thirty minutes crossing the Protected Natural Area of Maspalomas.
Verified experiences and guided adventures in the surrounding area.

You roll onto the seaside promenade as the Atlantic wind pushes the palms and the golden dunes loom ahead, daring you to cross them. The route threads coastal boulevards and safe cycle paths, then slows at a mirador with a broad view of Playa del Inglés and the ragged line of sand. After a guided pedal you trade two wheels for the slow, steady gait of a camel and spend thirty minutes crossing the Protected Natural Area of Maspalomas.
The dunes are wind-blown deposits of Sahara sand that have migrated and settled against the island’s southern shore; they sit beside a small, brackish lagoon and a pocket palm oasis that supported local saltworks and grazing long before mass tourism. Maspalomas’ culture is part resort, part natural reserve — holiday promenades and protected bird habitat sit shoulder to shoulder, and local guides balance interpretation with regulation.
Expect paved, low-traffic paths rather than off-road e-biking; the operator provides helmets and e-bikes, and camel rides are confined to permitted stretches of the dunes with strict weight limits. Morning or late afternoon departures are best to avoid peak sun; bring sunscreen, a refillable water bottle and closed shoes. Children can ride in a baby seat on the e-bike (0–6 yrs) or lap-ride on camels if under 3. Respect the protected area: stay with the guide, don't disturb nesting birds at the lagoon, and follow local instructions for an ethical visit.
E-bike riders must be 14–70 years old with a combined rider/passenger weight under 100 kg for the e-bike; camels have a 100 kg maximum per rider and infants under 3 must sit on a parent’s lap during the camel ride.
Helmets and e-bikes are provided; participants should know how to ride a bicycle and have basic balance skills, but no advanced e-bike experience is needed.
Children 0–6 can ride in a certified baby bike seat (max 22 kg); minors must be accompanied by a paying parent for both bike and camel sections.
Yes — a 30-minute camel safari inside the Maspalomas protected dune area is included and conducted in permitted zones under guide supervision.
