Canary Islands

Canary Islands holidays

Deserts, epic volcanoes and breathtaking mountains sit side-by-side on the spectacular Canary Islands. Year-round sun and average temps in the twenties make the quartet of Tenerife, Lanzarote, Gran Canaria and Fuerteventura a popular spot for classic beach breaks. Each one’s a firm favourite for different reasons – think wine tasting, surfing mighty waves, experiencing neon-lit nightlife and conquering incredible peaks.

Bounty of beaches

Calling all sunworshippers – the Canary Islands are for you with their guaranteed sunshine! And when it comes to beaches, you’ll be spoilt for choice, from Gran Canaria’s epic dunes and Fuerteventura’s white-sand shores to Tenerife’s golden bays and Lanzarote’s sandy sweeps. Water sports are big business here too, whether you’re a surfing fan or love diving beneath the surface. 

Natural wonders

Outdoorsy types, you’ll be in heaven in the Canaries. Throughout the islands you’ll find everything from lava fields and snow-capped mountains to sand dunes and lush forests – it’s a feast for the eyes. Plus, the highest peak in Spain, Mount Teide, is in Tenerife. So pack a pair of comfy shoes and get ready to walk or cycle through incredible natural scenery. 

Resorts for all sorts

Buzzy bars? Tick. Irish pubs? Yup. Chic waterfront restaurants? Oh yes. Local vineyards? You bet. You’ll find resorts that everyone will love in the Canary Islands. Playa De Las Americas in Tenerife and Playa Del Ingles in Gran Canaria are where to go if you’re all about nightlife, while the Costa Teguise in Lanzarote and Corralejo in Fuerteventura are great for families.
