The Canary Islands are located off the southwest coast of Spain, just northwest of Morocco and 4º from the tropic of cancer. They have always been a key navigational point between Europe, Asia and America.

It's always springtime on the Canary Islands. They have a perfect subtropical climate. The temperatures never vary more than around 6º C between the seasons.

The average air temperature is between 18º to 24º C and the water temperature varies from 22º C in summer to 19º C in winter, so you can go swimming and sunbathing all year round!

The landscape is very unique, with snow-capped mountain peaks located right beside the beach. This is one of the island's major tourist attractions. They're quite spectacular to look at.

In Fuerteventura and Lanzarote, the climate is very dry and you are almost always guaranteed sunshine all year round whereas on La Palma, Tenerife and Gran Canaria, they get tropical rains every so often.
