Closer to northern Africa than mainland Spain, holidays to the Canary Islands promise unlimited sunshine. But its year-round warmth isn’t the only draw – its extraordinary terrain is just as alluring. From Lanzarote’s fiery landscape to Gran Canaria’s never-ending sand dunes, no two of its seven islands are the same. Then there’s the largest of them all, Tenerife! Other than buzzing beach resorts and soaring sea cliffs, this popular spot is home to Spain’s highest and most famous volcano. Wherever you choose to visit, there’s a holiday hotspot for everyone hiding in this Atlantic archipelago.
Things to do
With such a diverse landscape, the Canary Island holidays offer up experiences of every kind. Beach lovers will have their pick of sunbathing spots. For swathes of white sand, they don’t get much more beautiful than Papagayo Beach in Lanzarote and Corralejo Grandes Playas in Fuerteventura thanks to their natural park surroundings. Elsewhere, you’ll find a good mix of golden and black shorelines, some filled with tourist facilities and others completely remote.
The varied scenery also promises plenty of wildlife sightings. If you’re heading to the south on your holiday to Gran Canaria, don’t forget to look out for whales and dolphins swimming in the Atlantic. Or, you can always spend a day observing tigers, pandas and sloths in Tenerife’s popular Loro Park. More of a waterpark fan than an animal enthusiast? Then, make sure you visit Siam Park, Spain’s top splash-filled attraction! Families will love the giant waves as adrenaline junkies try and pluck up the courage to ride its near vertical slide.
And the adventures don’t end there! Those who appreciate the great outdoors shouldn’t miss out on the chance to explore one of the Canary island’s most famous natural attractions on their holidays to Tenerife. Whether you come here to hike to the top of the towering Mount Teide, or hunt down its stargazing spots – there’s no better way to soak up the archipelago’s true beauty than a trip to this national park. While the views across Timanfaya National Park’s lava fields are listed on just about every tourist guide as are the sunsets at Roque Nublo. Prefer wet activities? Then, the Atlantic will be waiting with its long list of watersports, from surfing to snorkelling and sea kayaking.
Places to stay
Tenerife is the largest of the Canary Islands, home to Spain’s highest mountain, fine sandy beaches and some of the archipelago’s most vibrant nightlife. Often referred to as a ‘mini continent’, Gran Canaria is famous for its rocky beaches, sandy dunes and cosmopolitan capital city; Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. While Lanzarote holidays are all about exploring its amazing lunar landscape. It’s also home to an impressive contrasting coastline, from its dark volcanic sands to its golden coves. Speaking of beaches, Fuerteventura has the most of all the Canary Islands, with vast dunes stretching for miles. Nature lovers, on the other hand, will love La Palma with its abundance of greenery and incredible clear skies drawing stargazers from around the world. Not to mention La Gomera and El Hierro for their forest trails.

Semana Santa: Celebrate Easter in lively Canarian style during the festivities of Semana Santa (or Holy Week).

Gay Pride: The Canary Islands have a strong, gay community and May sees the streets of Maspalomas explode into a riot of parades, music and outrageous costumes. The Gay Pride celebrations are both fun and absolutely fabulous!
Canary Islands safety and security
Do I need a passport?
Anyone visiting the Canary Islands will need a passport, which will need to be valid for at least three months after the day you plan to leave.
Do I need a visa?
If you’re a British citizen, you don’t need a visa to enter the Canary Islands as a tourist. If you’re in any doubt as to whether or not you need a visa, it’s always best to contact the Spanish Embassy to check.
For up-to-date advice on entry requirements please visit the FCDO website.
Should I get travel health insurance?
Anybody jetting off on a holiday to the Canary Islands should ensure they have comprehensive travel and health insurance in place. If you become ill or are injured while away, your insurance will cover or help towards the cost of any medical treatment needed. It’s a good idea to have a read through your policy documents before your trip so that you’re aware of what is and isn’t covered, and also to check if there is extra cover for any activities you may be planning.
For up-to-date advice on travelling to the Canary Islands, please visit the FCDO website.
Canary Islands weather
Temperature: Average temperatures range from 18°C in the winter to 26°C in the summer.
Best time to visit?
Known for its mild climate, the Canary Islands get more days of sunshine than almost anywhere else in the world. Come here from May to July and you’ll enjoy average temperatures of around 26°C, perfect for beach breaks. Those looking to go swimming or snorkelling will appreciate August’s heated waters, when sea temperatures are a pleasant 23°C. But these sun-kissed islands are just as popular in the winter. Although cooler, you can still experience highs of around 24°C and days rarely drop below 15°C.
If you’ve come here to explore the many geographical wonders here, spring and autumn are considered the best seasons for hiking. These months are generally quieter too, so you’ll get to take full advantage of peaceful beaches and attractions.
What should I pack?
What you pack for your trip will depend on what time of year you’re visiting the Canary Islands. The days here are generally long, hot and sunny, particularly during the summer months, so pack plenty of high-factor sun cream and don’t forget your after sun, hat, and a cover-up for long days at the beach or by the pool. Other essentials include sunglasses, plenty of cool, light clothes, and a jumper for cooler evenings.
It’s also a good idea to pack some comfortable walking shoes for sightseeing and an EU travel adaptor to keep your mobile phone and other devices charged on your trip.

Best Time to Visit the Canary Islands
As in the UK, the weather in the Canary Islands is variable. But whichever island you are on and whenever you are on it you can expect it to be a lot warmer and drier than at home.
They may be little more than a four-hour flight away, but the islands enjoy a sub-tropical climate that makes them great for a holiday at any time of the year.
Winter temperatures are mild enough to sunbathe on Christmas Day with maybe six or seven hours of sun and the thermometer nudging 22 degrees. Although the Atlantic may be warm enough for a dip the temperature will be much lower on the hills and mountains where, sometimes, it snows.
In the summer it rarely gets uncomfortably hot. The sun can shine for up to 10 hours a day, but maximum temperatures are usually between 25 and 30 degrees Centigrade. Between May and September, it rarely rains on the coast.
The average annual rainfall for the Canary Islands is less than 150mm a year. London has almost four times as much. It may rain in Tenerife for 14 days a year but London has more than 100 wet days. Micro-climates mean some islands have wetter and drier areas.
Canary Island Travel Advice
Car hire: Road networks are good on the Canary Islands and car hire is popular and widely available. Drivers must be over 21 and should carry with them in the car picture ID (like a driving licence or passport) and the car hire document. Drive on the right.
Taxis: They operate on all five islands and fares are regulated. Most drivers speak English so you can discuss the fare before you travel. Expect fares to climb if your journey takes you outside the town or resort you are in. Flag a cab, go to a rank or book by phone (your hotel will help).
Buses: Reliable and regular bus services run on all five islands. The routes, timetables and fares are available on-line and in English for some islands. Discounts can usually be obtained for multiple journeys.
Ferries: Hydrofoils and ferries link all the islands.

Frequently asked questions
Are the Canary Islands named after the birds?
No, the birds are named after the islands. The islands are named after large dogs that were running wild when the Romans arrived. The Latin word for dogs is canis. The chirpy yellow birds on the islands got their name in the 17th century.
Are all the beaches in the Canary Islands black?
Definitely not. The islands are famous for their very many beautiful white and gold sand beaches and sand dunes. However, there are some stunning black or dark-coloured beaches to be found on all these volcanic islands. Most of La Palma’s beaches are black.
Are the Canary Islands in Africa or Europe?
Geographically they are closer to Africa, Fuerteventura is less than 70 miles from Morocco. But the islands have been Spanish since the 15th century. They are part of the EU and the euro is the currency.
Canary Island Spa Secrets
The huge variety of private spas on offer in the Canary Islands stunning. New treatments, a world away from the traditional head massage and manicure, make full use of the many natural resources found in the region. Read our guide to some of the best spas in the Canary Islands.

Holidays in Canary Islands
The closest of the Canary Islands to Africa, Fuerteventura holidays share the continent’s white and black sands and fine weather, but this Spanish island has a distinct European vibe. A relaxing place for a Canary Islands holiday, it has over 150 vast stretches of beach to chill out on, as well as two national parks to explore.
The second most populated Canary Island, Gran Canaria is full of natural beauty. Known as the ‘miniature continent’ due to its variety of climates and terrain, this beautiful island offers opportunities to unwind or experience something new and exciting.
La Gomera is the quietest of all the Canary Islands and offers something different compared with its neighbours. While holidays to the Canary Islands often revolve around eating and enjoying the beach, La Gomera holidays are extra special. Here you’ll get a new perspective of the islands – think empty, secluded beaches, mountainsides with thick forests and laid-back, traditional villages.
The island of La Palma isn’t called La Isla Bonita, or ‘The Beautiful Island’, for nothing. Covered in lush forests and dominated by towering volcanoes, it’s the ideal spot for visitors looking to taste something a little different on their Canary Island holiday.
All Inclusive Lanzarote holidays offer a classic beach destination. Since the seventies sun-seekers have been stretching out on the island’s striking volcanic sands and basking in the year-round sizzling sunshine.
The biggest and most popular Canary Island, holidays in Tenerife offer a variety of both bustling and more tranquil resorts, not to mention the diverse landscape where you can enjoy the phenomenal weather.

Holidays in the Canary Islands
If you love days at the beach then take your pick between golden shores and dark volcanic sands. Maybe the great outdoors sounds a little more tempting? Welcome to trekking paradise! Hike across mountains, tropical forests and volcanic terrain for your back to nature adventure. This is just the beginning of the Canaries amazing appeal…
Weather
Say hello to year round sunshine! Whether it’s winter or summer, a holiday in the Canaries is always a good idea. The sun-drenched Spanish islands sit just off the coast of Africa, benefiting from sweeping easterly winds courtesy of the Sahara.
December temperatures rarely drop below 20°C, perfect climes for outdooring and exploring! Sizzling summers creep upwards to 30°C. Long, sunny days melt from one to the next – a dream for dedicated beach bums chasing sand and sea. Even on the hottest days, the Atlantic’s refreshing waters keep the islands from over-heating. Rain is practically unheard of, so leave the umbrella at home and bask in the stunning sub-tropical climate.
Discover the Canary Islands
When it comes to the battle for the Canary Islands’ best beaches, Gran Canaria really gives Fuerteventura a run for its money. There’s sand dunes on these shores too! And the Maspalomas Beach sits right on the edge of this wonderful nature reserve. Strolling through the walking routes that dissect the dunes, you’ll really appreciate the beauty of the Gran Canarian coastline.
The island also goes toe to toe with Tenerife in the battle to be king of the coast. Towering cliffs characterise Tenerife’s beaches, but Gran Canaria has its own coves tucked away among the rocks. The tranquil Playa Taurito is perfect for taking in the mountain scenery. For seaside charm, be sure to head to Playa de Mogán. Stretch your legs with a stroll along the harbour or around the village, taking in the traditional buildings as you go. The beach here is tailor-made for families, with soft golden sand and calm waters. Your little ones can splash to their heart’s content.
In fact you’ll find plenty of fascinating old towns on Gran Canaria. The pick of the bunch may well be in the capital city of Las Palmas! Vegeuta is the oldest part of town and its narrow streets are just brimming with historic charm. Even down to the detail of doorways and decoration surrounding windows. The Cathedral de Santa Ana stands proud in the square of the same name and with two impressive towers, it’s the icing on Las Palmas’ cultural cake.
Last but not least it’s the lava plug that keeps watch over the rest of Gran Canaria. Roque Nublo sits up in the clouds and stands at an enormous 80m! Impressive from afar, it’s even more mesmerising up close and personal – so be sure to take the trek to the top. But be warned, you may be blown away by the panoramas! The rural park here is a blend of pine trees, plant life and picturesque villages.
Heaven for beach lovers, there’s golden sands galore on this amazing island, with over 150km to choose from. So it’s easy to argue that Fuerteventura takes the Canary Island crown when it comes to spectacular beaches. And that’s before any mention of the watersports and adventures at sea! The conditions here are perfect for all kinds of surfing, from kite to wind and just jumping on your board to catch a few waves. The strong winds make trying your hand at these a real gem on Fuerteventura’s shores. Snorkelling and diving are a delight too, with crystal-clear seas and warm waters.
Corralejo Beach is one of Fuerteventura’s finest. A long stretch of golden sand, shimmering in the year-round sun as it meets the turquoise waves. This the type of picture-perfect scenery that you’d expect to find on postcards! The beach also borders the dunes of Corralejo’s national park. Stretch your legs as you trek across this stunning desert-like part of the Canary Islands – getting back to nature has never felt so good.
Head inland and you’ll find just as much charm and beauty. It doesn’t get much better than Betancuria! This is Fuerteventura off the beaten track, far from the clutches of tourism and brimming with tradition. Tucked away in a beautiful green valley, mountains and hills create spectacular views around every turn. Be sure to take a winding wander around the cobbled streets too! Ancient buildings are dotted throughout Betancuria, including the mesmerising church of Santa Maria, a handful of fascinating museums and lots more.
Families will find plenty of fun on Fuerteventura too – making it ideal for visits with your little ones. Why not swap the sand dunes for slides in Corralejo? The Acua Water Park is the perfect spot to splash around, race your kids on slides and find thrills on the 100m slide! While the Big Jacuzzi and Slow River offer a welcome break from the action. If your children are budding animal experts, add La Lajita Oasis Adventure Park to your Fuerteventura itinerary. Animal encounters await for your little wildlife lovers. Whether their favourite critters live on land, call the sea home or soar overhead – they’ll be spoilt for choice. Grab a seat for one of the live shows and learn some fascinating facts about these amazing animals.
Take in Tenerife from the top of Mount Teide. If you’re searching for somewhere to enjoy the volcanic landscape, you’ll struggle to find a better spot! Plus, on a clear day you might catch a glimpse of Gran Canaria and the smaller Canary Islands of La Gomera, El Hierro and La Palma in the distance. Tired legs can take the cable car to the top in just eight minutes! While trekking fanatics will love the five hour ascent, marvelling at craters and rock formations as you go.
Head north and swap the rocky terrain for the greenery of the Anaga Country Park. Home to tropical forests and beautiful native flora, the volcanic terrain of Teide will feel a million miles away. The Laurisilva trees are a highlight! You’ll only find these in a handful of other European countries.
If plant life is a holiday must-see, be sure to head to Icod de los Vinos. An incredible 800 year-old dragon tree draws visitors in their droves. Although an amble through the cobbled streets is just as fascinating. You’ll get a flavour for traditional Tenerife here, dotted with 16th and 17th century chapels and a charming town square. Maybe lava tunnels are a little more alluring than the leaves and branches? Nearby you’ll find Europe’s longest lava tube in the Cueva del Viento. In fact, you’d have to head to Hawaii to find any longer than the Canary Islands’ ‘Cave of the Wind’. Exploring the caverns and tunnels will leave you feeling like a true underground adventurer.
All this talk of Teide’s summit and cable cars might have left you feeling a little uneasy, but there’s plenty of ways to enjoy Tenerife’s landscape at a lower altitude. Why not take in the towering cliffs from below as you top up your tan? The mountainous coastline is the backdrop to amazing beach days, on the dark sand of Los Gigantes Beach. Be sure to step foot on a black sand beach and tick this off your Tenerife to-do list! If you’ve never set eyes on one before, save this sight for a trip to El Bollullo Beach. This charming bay is home to rich volcanic sand, views of craggy cliffs and an air of tranquillity. It wouldn’t be fair if we touched upon Tenerife’s shores without mentioning the stretches of golden sand too. Los Cristianos oozes seaside charm and a relaxing vibe, while Playa de Las Teresitas offers plenty of space and even more of those mountain panoramas.
If the thought of exploring lava fields has you bubbling beneath the surface, prepare to erupt with excitement at the Timanfaya National Park. This is your ticket to trekking across volcanic terrain! From towering red rock, to deep craters – the landscape here is out of this world. Your volcanic voyage of discovery continues at the Cueva de los Verdes. A lava tube that lights up visits for plenty of Lanzarote’s intrepid explorers. Once used as a hideout for locals taking refuge from invading pirates, you’ll feel like you’ve stumbled upon buried treasure in this underground gem. Marvel at the rock formations as you stroll through the maze-like tunnels. Be sure to visit the stunning lake that calls the caves home too.
Enjoy the natural beauty of Lanzarote from a different perspective at the Mirador del Rio viewpoint. Not for the feint-hearted, this is one for those with a head for heights. Almost 500m above sea level, the scenery here is breathtaking. Looking over the sparkling sea, across to the island of La Graciosa – you could spend hours here without even realising.
Staring out over the golden sand might have you itching to get to the beach. And as you’d expect from the Canary Islands, there’s a choice between light and dark sands. Papagayo Beach is a charming bay of golden sand, which you’ll find as inviting as it is idyllic. The towering cliffs shelter this cove from winds, offering perfect conditions for soaking up the sun. When it comes to beaches of black sand, it doesn’t get any better than El Golfo’s Charco de los Clicos. A captivating blend of red rocks, black sand and a marvellous green lagoon.
Eating in the Canaries
Simple, fresh ingredients are the key to Canarian cuisine. Dishes are influenced by a medley of African, European and American flavours – blending to make the mouth-watering meals we’ve come to know and love today. Serious eating starts from lunch onwards, evidently whoever said ‘Eat breakfast like a king’ never passed the message on to the Canarians. Renowned for seafood, treat yourself to at least one fish dish! The islands are very much catered towards meat eaters, with specialities including pork, rabbit and most notably, goat. Vegetarians and vegans will reap the benefits of a self-catering villa, as it’s not always easy to find suitable meals when out and about.
The most well-known of Canarian dishes is the infamous papas arrugadas (wrinkly potatoes). Served with mojo (a spicy sauce made with coriander and red chilli peppers), these potatoes are a menu highlight across the board. Mainland Spain concoctions pop up everywhere too, including paella and tortilla (omelette). The locals love to snack, so there’s always a street vendor or little café ready to satisfy your sweet tooth! While tapas isn’t a typical trait of the Canary Islands, it’s become more and more popular over the years. Bite-size offerings are beginning to crop up across the archipelago, but are easiest to find in bigger towns.
Shopping in the Canaries
The Canary Islands have a lot to offer when it comes to retail therapy. Whether you’re after mainstream malls or open air stalls – you’re sure to walk away with a bargain or two! Shop ’til you drop at Fuerteventura’s Atlantico Centre, and when you’re done treat the kids to a trip to the amusement arcade or ten-pin bowling. For a one-of-a-kind keepsake, take home a genuine print from Lanzarote’s resident artist, Ceaser manrique.
Weekly market and local handicrafts are a day out within themselves! Tenerife’s El Medano takes place every Saturday from 9am to 2pm on the beach in front of the main plaza. Make your way through aisles of fresh food produce (perfect for whipping up a treat at your holiday home from home), and beautiful handmade creations. Live music makes the experience feel extra authentic. For the best of both worlds, take a trip to the Triana shopping district in Las Palmas Old Town, Gran Canaria. Street artists and musicians meet bustle and tradition with this mix of market stalls and high-street stores.
Festivals and Fiestas
Just like Mainland Spain, the Canary Islands know how to throw a good party! Famous for their fiestas and celebrations, year-round festivals match the glorious year-round sunshine. In August alone there’s more than 50 events, so chances are your visit will coincide with at least something on the social calendar. It can be hard to keep up with what’s going on, so here’s some of our favourites! In November Fuerteventura hosts an International Kite Flying Festival, while February sees one of Europe’s biggest carnivals in the form of Santa Cruz de Tenerife! A show-stopping spectacle bursting with elaborate costumes and Latin American dance, Lanzarote and Gran Canaria also celebrate it.
We love Canary Island Holidays
Fallen for Fuerteventura? In love with Lanzarote? How about Tenerife or Gran Canaria? Whichever island has sparked your holiday excitement, it’s time to pick a villa that gives you an even greater buzz. Our villas in the Canary Islands are your home away from home – so you’re all taken care of.

Walking holidays in the Canaries,
perfect for autumn & winter
Given their benevolent year-round climate, you can go walking in the Canary Islands even in winter. But there’s more to the islands than their plentiful sunshine – there are deep ravines, volcanic craters, centuries-old forests, colourful rock formations, ancient lava flows… In the true spirit of a Slow holiday, break as often as you like to admire it all – you’re not part of a group, and have no luggage to carry (we take care of that, along with providing route notes and ensuring the arrangements run like clockwork), so don’t rush…

The best walking in the Canary Islands
What makes walking holidays in the Canaries special is that each island has its own allure. On Tenerife it is the constant presence of El Teide; on El Hierro the chance to explore off the beaten track; on Lanzarote the colours in the scenery; on Gran Canaria the extraordinary scenic diversity; on Fuerteventura the unexpected yet epic biblical landscapes; and on La Gomera the feeling of discovering a well-kept secret. Whichever you choose, you will find walking in the Canaries a treat for the senses.

Junior Camp in the Canary Islands
DAY 1
Welcome to the Canaries! South Tenerife will meet us with gentle sun and wonderful fresh air from the ocean! Only 30 minutes to the resort of Los Cristianos, and our heavenly adventures begin . .. A sandy beach with a warm sea, a cozy hotel, a lazy pool that you don’t want to get out of – isn’t it happiness? But we only have a couple of days for a relaxing holiday, because this island has prepared so many secrets and magical places for us!
DAY 2
We continue to rest! The charm of a coastal town, hearty Canarian cuisine, the smell of coniferous groves and the warm waves of the Atlantic – that’s the plan for today. Meet new friends, walk around the resort, enjoy the holidays!
DAY 3
And our adventure time begins! Today we are going to the north of the island, where several beautiful places and excellent photo locations are waiting for us. We will first visit the amazing Garachico, an ancient postcard town with a 16th century port and the monumental Roque de Garachico, home to the petrels. Further on our way, one of the most famous trees in the world is a thousand-year-old dragon tree in the place of Icod de los Vinos with red resin and a crown diameter of 20 meters! This tree is so huge that the people standing under it look like midgets. ..
But if this place does not surprise you, then after a delicious lunch (will you be paella or grilled seafood?), we will have a short hike (hikers proudly call it hiking) along the slopes of Chinyero volcano among relict firs and lava boulders. This place looks like the Martian craters where they decided to celebrate the New Year – you will like it!
DAY 4
After a busy day in the mountains, you need to take a dose of warm sea and southern sun again – because today is New Year’s Eve! We are waiting for a boat trip from the coast of Costa Adeje to sunbathe on board the boat, dive into the clearest waters of the lagoon and admire … whales! Yes, there are 21 species of marine animals in the local waters – from the usual dolphins to sperm whales and pilot whales. Don’t forget to charge your cameras for unique shots!
And in the afternoon we will have a New Year’s master class of Canarian cuisine – an amazing mixture of the gastronomic cultures of Spain, West Africa and South America. In these places, potatoes are boiled in their skins in sea water, flour is fried, raisins and almonds are added to sausages, and soup is made from seaweed. Very appetizing! Where else will you try such dishes for the New Year? And most importantly – all this is very satisfying and tasty!
DAY 5
We put on sneakers and our favorite backpack – we are waiting for the second mountain trip! Today we are discovering the secrets of the “mysterious triangle” of Anaga, a 5-million-year-old mountain range in the northeast of the island. Picturesque trails, ancient rainforests, huge palm trees against the backdrop of snow-capped peaks and Instagram shots at every turn – we bet you have never loved nature as much as today!
After lunch in a fishing village, we will have a well-deserved rest – swimming in a cozy bay with black beaches and a walk around the capital of the island, Santa Cruz de Tenerife. This is a small but cozy city where we will admire the pretty streets and magnificent old buildings, buy souvenirs and, full of impressions, go home along the coast at sunset…
DAY 6
Today is our relaxing day! You can stay to relax on the beloved beaches of Los Cristianos, or you can go to Siam Park – a Thai-style water park, which has confidently ranked 1st in the TripAdvisor rating of the best water parks in the world for the last 4 years! You know what a good water park looks like. Of course, there is a great selection of slides for every taste, a huge swimming pool, a “lazy river”, dancing, drive, a sea of positive and wonderful mood! There is even a heavenly artificial beach with a shallow bottom – for those who appreciate water parks for the opportunity to just fall off and not think about anything, enjoying the holidays …
DAY 7-8
Oh, we’ve been waiting for these two days and even a little worried. But we promise, it will be an unforgettable experience for everyone – and perhaps one of the brightest impressions in our lives! We are waiting for a 2-day expedition in the Teide National Park, at the largest volcano in the Canary Islands – its height is 3718 m, and the relative height above the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean is 7500 m, and this is the highest peak in this ocean and the third highest volcano in the world. We will not climb to the very peak (it is cold there), but we will walk at an altitude of 2 km, enjoying the landscapes of overwhelming beauty. We will see all of Tenerife from a bird’s eye view, walk through the Martian landscapes of the volcano, touch the oldest lava boulders on the planet, drink water from mountain streams, walk under the clouds along the path of unreal power and atmosphere.
We will spend the night in a cozy campsite in the Teide National Park. Camping is not a tent! Even if you like tents, this option is much more comfortable, with full beds, electricity and heating. But who goes to bed right away? Another highlight of the route is waiting for us – astrotour, and in Russian, watching the stars, watching a billion stars from the slopes of the volcano …. And yes, our 2-day road will not be difficult – we came to relax and enjoy the scenery (but sneakers are required). We will return to the hotel after lunch on the second day, and have a real beach party, with dancing and favorite songs!
DAY 9
The motto of today is to have a leisurely rest in beautiful places! Today we have the final trip around the island – a fascinating trip to the west, to the famous cliffs of Los Gigantes with the town of the same name and a cozy bay for swimming. We also swim in a natural lava pool with crystal clear water, which the locals call “Crab Island”.
And 300 meters from the pool there is a picturesque cave where, according to legend, Spanish pirates left their treasures until the 20th century. Maybe we can find some doubloons covered in sea foam?
DAY 10-12
These 3 days we will have a surf course at the nearby Las Americas beach! Here is the popular El Medio spot for beginner surfers. The wide coastline, shallow bottom and low stable wave are the best conditions to get on the board on the first day! We will learn the basic skills of surfing, catch our first wave, take a lot of photos for memory (“this is me surfing at the Junior Camp in the Canary Islands”) and get a lot of fresh emotions and a great mood! And believe me, if you like it – you will not forget about surfing and will look for any opportunity to get on the board in the future …
By the way, surfing usually lasts a couple of hours in the morning, and after that we have a whole day of entertainment – the sea, the pool, walks around the city, shopping and chatting with new friends (and we will have a lot to discuss after such a busy program in Tenerife)! And it will be three wonderful days of relaxation, sea, sun, ice cream and new purchases.
DAY 13
The final day of our winter camp in the Canaries. Let’s look at ourselves in the mirror – who are we now? We are mountain travelers, volcano explorers, astronomers, cooks, photographers and surfers. Rested, happy, grown up. With full bags of impressions, we return home to our homeland! Hello 2021!
What will happen next? The motto of the camp is looking at us from the backpack – Be Happy, Be Junior.
And this is what we will continue to do. Be happy and young!
*Traditional but important information. The organizers reserve the right to change the camp program due to circumstances beyond their control (weather conditions, changes in the schedule of national parks). Excursions and activities can, in this case, be changed to similar ones, without losing the quality of the program.

Canary Islands – InoTV Tags
September 2022
Even on Catholic Christmas, the Canary Islands were declared by the German authorities a zone of high risk of infection with coronavirus. Nevertheless, a group of Spanish islands remains a popular summer destination for German tourists, notes the tabloid Bild. This New Year’s holiday, local beaches are full of people, and social distancing is not observed there, despite the high incidence.
Bild
Tourist-friendly Canary Islands are starting to welcome their first foreign visitors again without being required to undergo coronavirus tests or quarantine. To ensure safety at the resorts, sanitary measures are strictly enforced in hotels and public areas – including the mandatory wearing of masks, temperature control and social distancing for everyone. And tourists support new standards, reports Euronews.
Euronews
Today we turn our attention to the case of the Arctic Sea: the story of a ship that first disappeared and then reappeared. Mysterious cargo, pirates, Russia. Real detective. Reporting by Jean-Luc Egozier.
TV5 Monde
We have received new details about the cargo ship, which was considered missing in the Atlantic Ocean for two weeks and was found later. We are talking about the Arctic Sea.
CNN
Due to the ongoing volcanic eruption on the Spanish island of La Palma, local authorities have introduced a quarantine that applies to residents of coastal towns and villages, writes Der Spiegel. The reason for the introduction of quarantine is the dangerous fumes that occur when lava comes into contact with the sea.
Der Spiegel
The eruption of the Cumbre Vieja volcano in the Canary Islands has been going on for three weeks, according to Welt. He destroyed more than a thousand buildings, and more than 6 thousand people were forced to leave their homes. Every hour it becomes more aggressive, and, as experts predict, it will remain active for several more months.
Welt (TV)
A volcanic eruption in the Canary Islands that began last weekend is still not over, according to Die Welt. The lava flow has already destroyed a thousand residential buildings and continues to expand: no one can say for sure when the cataclysm will finally end.
Welt (TV)
Hot volcanic lava flows on the island of Palma reached the coast, where, in contact with salt water, columns of toxic vapor dangerous to humans were formed. Earlier, the authorities advised the inhabitants of part of the island not to leave their homes, because during the previous eruption 50 years ago, one person died, poisoned by fumes, reports Euronews.
Euronews
The Canary Island of Palma is shrouded in a huge cloud of volcanic ash. Residents are urged to wear protective masks, goggles and long clothing to keep it from getting on the body. In addition to ash, about 25 thousand tons of sulfur dioxide are ejected from the crater every day. Lava flows are already approaching the ocean – and experts fear that its entry into salt water could lead to the release of toxic gases, reports Euronews.
Euronews
In less than a week since the start of the volcanic eruption on the island of Palma, lava flows have wiped out almost 400 houses, according to France 2. Many airlines have postponed flights due to thick ash clouds with sulfur dioxide emissions: one of them reached the south of France, however, according to experts, does not pose a danger to people and the environment.
France 2
The 90,002 migrants brought daily by rescue boats to the Canary Islands are growing in number, and the local authorities are unsuccessfully trying to solve the problem of their accommodation. As a temporary solution, some are being sent to hotels on the islands, which already house more than 4,000 refugees. However, about 2 thousand more are still in the port, and their number is constantly growing, Euronews reports.

In autumn, Spain becomes especially beautiful. It is during this period that the velvet season begins, which lasts for all three autumn months. Mild weather and the absence of regular rains allow visitors to plunge into the calm, peaceful life of the country, away from the hustle and bustle and abundance of tourists. Our travel agency of the retail network PEGAS Touristik WTC LLC will offer you options for a beach holiday, where you can extend the summer, and also present an extensive excursion program.
Autumn weather conditions
In September, hot weather prevails in Spain, but the summer heat begins to recede, creating a mild climate. The Mediterranean coast still meets beach lovers, where travel agencies are actively invited. Particularly attractive as a sunny resort is the island of Costa del Sol, where the air temperature in early autumn reaches 27 degrees Celsius.
The air temperature in the northern part of the country is somewhat reduced, leaving room for educational walks around the city. During this period, sightseeing holidays are especially valuable, which include tours to Spain for the autumn holidays of 2022. Arriving here in the fall, do not forget to visit the famous Barcelona Carnival, where hundreds of colorful national events await you, as well as the most beautiful flamenco festival in Seville.
At the end of September, the people of Barcelona celebrate farewell to summer, this pagan holiday lasts for a whole week. Dressed up puppet giants on stilts parade on the streets of the city these days, and the locals dance the Spanish folk dance – the sardane. Tourists come here every year to witness the grandiose correfok fire show.
Autumn is the time of holidays and festivals
October 11 in Barcelona you will witness the Day of the Spanish Nation, combined with the feast in honor of the Virgin Pilar. Going on tours to Spain for the autumn holidays of 2022, do not miss such a great event. On this day, the Spaniards arrange wide festivities, processions of giant dolls, sing national songs and attract tourists to incendiary hot rhythms.
Visiting Sitges on the Costa Dorada in October, you can get to the international film festival of fantasy and horror, which is recommended by tours to Spain for the autumn holidays of 2022. World cinema stars come here every year. In addition to events dedicated to cinema, an unusual procession called the Zombie Walk is traditionally organized here. Terrifying, make-up zombies roam the streets of Sitges and scare passers-by with their scars and costumes.

Visa-free exit from the Canary Islands. The procedure for leaving the insular Spanish territories requires a separate story. Over the past week, we left the Canary Islands and reached Morocco. The port of exit was Arrecife on the island of Lanzarote. The captain of “Lady Mary” came to the “Frontier Police” with a crew list and passports. The official carefully studied the paper and confirmed his consent with a stamp. Then he prepared to stamp our passports. – And you don’t need a passport, –Read more…

Why did my mother teach me to tell the truth even at the end of the earth – … And what will we tell her? Let’s say we lost something. “Cho, let’s all go look for it together?” – No, I pass. Go, I’ll wait for you here. I will cover from the rear. I wrap a liter carton of milk in a scarf and resolutely turn towards the museum. Comrades-in-arms, Nastya and Lada, walk hand in hand. The captain covers the rear on the sidewalk.Read more…

How we got fresh water After spending five days at anchor near the town of Mogán in the south of Gran Canaria, in the Canary Islands, we decided to fill up with water in the marina. Well, we just arrived in a dinghy with our own hose and canisters to the pontoon. There was no time to look for an office and all that. It was, of course, a circus. Here they have one short, fat and very noisy mariner, the supply manager, obviously. Read more…

Where did the locals of the Canaries go? Eco-Museum of Guinea on El Hierro Having become interested in the history of the Canary Islands a long time ago, we read something about the Guanches, according to one version, the descendants of the Atlanteans. They were tall, broad-shouldered people with light eyes and reddish hair. The people inhabited the main Canary Islands, kept their history and lived peacefully. They even sheltered and warmed the first Spanish sailors. Subsequently, these same conquerors as a token of gratitudeRead more…

It has only 4 rooms. And the guests, leaving, themselves lock the front door with a key. But so far we have not seen this, but only looked atRead more…

Why sailors need an anchor winch The art of traveling is the art of changing plans. In the morning, as is customary in the Canary Islands, the wind came sharply from the opposite side of the evening. It happened right at the time of breakfast. The captain decided to immediately re-anchor, which we did together. 60 meters of the anchor chain at first regularly went where they were supposed to, carefully straightened by Nastya and the abgaldyr (this funny word means a stickRead more…

To the ends of the earth On April 9, at one forty-five, the Lady Mary moored in the marina of La Palma and, with a steady light gulf, headed for the island of El Hierro – the very end of the earth, as it was believed in the time of Columbus. At 11 am the beach was already in full view. After entering the northeastern edge of the island, someone suddenly turned off the switch with the wind, and the Lady Mary sank with all her sailsRead more…

Leaving for the End of the Earth On El Hierro, the end of the pre-Columbian era, we set sail tonight. The farewell promenade along La Palma was dedicated by the crew of the Lady Mary to the capital city of Santa Cruz de La Palma. Check-in at the maritime museum became an obligatory item of the program. Museo Naval is a concrete copy of the untimely deceased on the Caribbean atoll “Santa Maria” (somewhere in 1492-93rd), the flagship of the Columbian fleet of the first expedition. In addition to her, there were also “Pinta” and “Nina”.
