About Canary Islands

The Canary Islands consist of seven islands: Fuerteventura; Gran Canaria; Tenerife; Lanzarote; La Gomera; La Palma and El Hierro, all of which are well known for their constant, favourable temperatures. Tenerife, the largest of the islands, is a very popular choice with tourists due to its bustling capital city of Santa Cruz; enchanting historical towns; lively bars, restaurants and shops and its famous resorts, including Playa de las Americas and Los Cristianos.

Fuerteventura is the second largest of the islands and boasts some of the best windsurfing in the world. Sleepy villages and peaceful beaches render Fuerteventura more tranquil than the other Canary Islands. The island is particularly popular with hikers, with many great trails starting at Corralejo and heading off into the striking landscape.

Gran Canaria is the third largest of the islands. The topography of the region is wide and varied so that lush forests rich in flora and fauna, majestic mountains, volcanic craters and golden sand dunes, such as those of Maspalomas, provide contrasting settings for a rich holiday experience.
