The aloe vera in Gran Canaria and throughout the Canary Islands is quite common. It has been adapted very well to the template weather of the Islands. Moreover, this plant brings extraordinary benefits and the Canarian citizens have taken advantage of it. Although the plant is not native to the island, it has lived with us for hundreds of years. In fact, it is included in some writings that when Christopher Columbus sailed from Gran Canaria towards his adventure in which he discovered America, his ship carried aloe from the island. He said he was taking a potted medicine.

Our elders have always used it for skin problems. And today we continue to use it for all the benefits it brings. Below we will give you more details about these benefits, as well as introduce you to an Aloe Vera Farm in the south of Gran Canaria
Aloe vera benefits and medicinal properties
The aloe gel or juice is usually applied mainly on the skin when it needs help for regeneration. Either by a sunburn, with fire, insect bites, dermatitis, acne, psoriasis … The pure aloe vera is a cellular regenerator that will help the skin to return to its natural state before. Why? Because the aloe penetrates up to the third layer of the skin and not only superficially. Therefore, with its use you will avoid the appearance of scars and stretch marks.

Aloe vera in Gran Canaria
If you want to visit an ecological farm of aloe vera in Gran Canaria, we recommend the Finca Canarias de Aloe Vera. It is located just 15 minutes drive from Maspalomas and 5 minutes from Fataga.

The entrance to the farm and demonstration of its expert guides is completely free. As you may see, just to appreciate the beauty of the landscape is worth it.
Demonstration during the visit
During the visit to the Aloe Vera Canarian Farm you will be shown that aloe contains a yellowish liquid called aloin. The aloin must be extracted by cleaning the leaf well in water, since it has laxative properties. The water where the leaf is cleaned with the remains of aloin, serves the farm as an ecological pesticide for its plantations.

Once the leaf is cleaned, its sides are split and opened in the middle to show the juice contained in the aloe.

As you can see, the visit to the farm is not only worth it for the landscape. There are qualified staff who will explain to you in Spanish, Italian, English, German, Russian, French and Dutch everything you want to know about this medicinal plant.
