In summer it rarely gets warmer than 28 degrees, and in winter the thermometer almost never drops below 15 degrees - no wonder so many sun-seekers love the islands so much. Yet each one is different from the next: Gran Canaria, for example, not only offers endless opportunities to turn night into day and party, but also oases of tranquillity such as small mountain villages, dark green lakes and breathtaking gorges.
Off on vacation: the Canary Islands offer endless variety
Tropical paradise La Palma - anyone on vacation in the Canary Islands should definitely visit the island! "La Isla Bonita" impresses with a fantastically beautiful landscape where pineapples and papayas, mangos and bananas grow. The island's mountains rise up to over 2,400 meters into the sky - a real challenge for hikers.
Lanzarote is completely different: the black island presents a unique volcanic landscape and is dotted with craters. Forests and meadows are covered in black dust - a legacy of past volcanic eruptions.
Beach vacation at its best
Fancy beach life, sun and very high waves? Then Fuerteventura is the island for you! Among surfers, it is considered the European Hawaii: more than 50 kilometers of fine, white sandy beach and a bright turquoise blue sea make you forget that it looks rather barren inland. In fact, all seven Spanish islands offer an almost endless range of leisure activities and nature experiences. Make sure you get some tips before your Canary Islands vacation!
