Puerto de Mogán, Gran Canaria

El Puerto de Mogán is the kingdom of sea and land

The sun sets the pace for life in southern Gran Canaria, blurring the borders between worlds

The sun is the clock that sets the pace for life in these waters, and its rays are the hands that show the hours and minutes as they tick by. The skipjack tuna that surge through Mogán’s water in the summer only rise to the surface in daylight to feed off the yellow tails, headstanders or mackerel. As soon as the light begins to fail, they return to the depths. They are children of the light, bound to it. Their force is titanic, capable of travelling up to one hundred kilometres a day, although they are lost without the day’s guiding light.
