How the Canaries were formed: everything you need to know

The Canary Islands are an archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean. They are located in the northwestern part of Africa and consist of only eight islands, five islets and eight rocks. For example, we are talking about La Gomera, La Palma and Tenerife, El Hierro, Fuerteventura, Lanzarote and Gran Canaria. many people wonder How did the Canary Islands form?

For this reason, we are going to dedicate this article to the story of how the Canary Islands were formed, their characteristics and significance.

How the Canary Islands

9000 9000

are located in African and located in African plate, forming the region of Macaronesia. They have a subtropical climate and climate variability results in biodiversity. All islands have biosphere reserves, national parks and areas declared as World Heritage Sites. Before the pandemic, millions of people visited the islands, for example, in 2019year, about 13 million tourists.

Its volcanic origin has also been calculated as quite recent for the age of the Earth: 30 million years. Several theories confirm that the islands were formed during different periods or volcanic cycles, which implies a continuous process of lava formation and successive solidification.

Therefore, it can be said that each island of this group has its own geological history or its own antiquity, the oldest islands are probably Fuerteventura and Lanzarote, followed by Tenerife, the Canary Islands and La Gomera. The closest are La Palma and El Hierro, which are less than 2 million years old.

original cycles

So what would this process or cycle look like? First, there is a phase called the “basal complex” in which the oceanic crust breaks and a block rises, in which lava erupted from the seabed is deposited. Then, Island emerges from the water in a stage known as “under construction”.

In turn, two cycles are distinguished here, the first of the old series, forming large volcanic structures, and then the so-called latest series, which is preserved today, is characterized by constant volcanic activity. Collectively, we can imagine how magma from the bowels of the planet rises through various cracks in the earth’s crust, accumulates on the sea floor, and then rises to sea level.

This has been going on for millions of years and, as we say, continues to this day with water vapor, sulphurous gases and occasional eruptions. Take, for example, the Tenegia eruption on La Palma in 1971, or more recently in 2021, when an unnamed volcano terrorized the island for 90 days.

The Canary Islands are mysterious in their own way, and because they are one of the few archipelagos formed by still active marine volcanoes, they are of great interest to scientists. There have been at least 500 eruptions in 18 years. so it has a pretty strong volcanic history and yes we haven’t seen the end yet.

Theories about how the Canary Islands formed

The features of these islands have inspired various theories about their formation. For a while, the theory of hot spots dominated, according to which islands formed in the transoceanic depression between Africa and America. Thus, islands appear along the way, with the oldest islands furthest from their origin as they move along the lithospheric plates.

Another theory is the theory of propagating cracks, according to which, following the cycles of compression and relaxation of the Atlas tectonic plate, faults occurred in the lithosphere, spreading from the continents to the Atlantic Ocean, leaving behind magma.

I must say that these are all theories and not fully accepted, although the hot spots are relatively hot. This may explain why the islands are still active, with the exception of some where no volcanic activity has been recorded at present. Yes, yes, there are still holes in this explanation, but scientific research continues to try to answer all questions.

So, what are the characteristics of the beautiful and dangerous Canary Islands? Well, they have all kinds of volcanic rocks that cover the whole range of alkaline basalts and they have all kinds of craters and they are very asymmetrical depending on where the wind is blowing from and pushing the magma one way or the other, and thermoplastic explosions and bombs. , the island also has magma and cones, formations, craters, many volcanic structures between calderas…

Climate

On the other hand, the islands have a pleasant subtropical maritime climate with trade winds due to their proximity to the tropics and the El Golfo current. The wind pushes the clouds to form these beautiful seas of clouds and it also gives the feeling that the water is almost fluffy and calm.

The Canary Islands are a paradise with an average temperature of 25 ºC throughout the year. so this is a phenomenon at the tourist level.

Here are the main characteristics of the islands:

• Palm: with an area of ​​708.32 square kilometers and a population of 83.458 2.426 million people. The Tenegia volcano was not in their favor, but last year there was another eruption that caused chaos. It is the second highest island in the group with the highest peak, Roque de los Muchachos, at 10.40 meters. It houses the largest optical telescope in the world, the Gran Telescopio Canarias, with a mirror diameter of XNUMX meters.
• Iron: It is the smallest island with its own administration: 268.71 square kilometers and only 11.147 thousand inhabitants. This is a biosphere reserve where a major underwater eruption occurred ten years ago. It is the first island in the world to be fully self-sufficient with renewable energy.
• Tenerife: The largest island, 2034.38 square kilometers. It is also the most populous region with 928.604 thousand people. Known as “Yongquan Island”, it has beautiful beaches and numerous natural parks. Yes, this is the place that receives the richest tourists every year.

Here is where the Millenary Dragon Tree stands (Dracaena draco), which was declared a National Monument in 1917 and is believed to be 800 years old. From here you have one of the loveliest views of Mount Teide, Spain’s highest peak. The historic-artistic heritage of the old town and a varied commercial offer make this municipality worth a visit.

Bus line 363 takes you every 30 minutes directly from Buenavista del Norte (16 km).

La Orotava

Located in the middle of the valley of the same name, the city stands out for its perfectly preserved constructions, which has led to the town center being declared a Historic Artistic and World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Its streets are dotted with buildings of great beauty, the typical carved wooden balconies adorn the facades of their traditional houses. Numerous terraces invite you to taste tapas and local wines. Visit one of the 10 water mills of the 16th century where the famous Canarian Gofio (toasted grain flour) was made. Today two are still in use.

La Orotava is 39 km from Buenavista del Norte and you can get there in one hour by bus connecting with Icod de Los Vinos.

La Cueva del Viento, Icod de Los Vinos

Experience a guided visit of the world’s largest lava tubes (18 km). A huge labyrinthine network of underground passages, many of which being still unexplored.

The difficulty of the tour is intermediate and it takes 2 hours. You will spend approximately 45 minutes inside the cave exploring some 250 metres (800 feet) of tubes. Information and reservation on www.cuevadelviento.net

La Laguna

Once the capital of the island, it is a perfectly preserved historic city and UNESCO World Heritage where palaces, old mansions and characterful buildings sit cheek-by-jowl with tapas bars, antique shops and bookstores. They say the Spanish practised and perfected their colonial architectural styles here, before spiriting them off to the New World and it certainly evokes places in South America. Stroll and eat some delicious churros with hot chocolate!

La Laguna is 65 km from Buenavista del Norte and you can go by bus connecting from Icod de Los Vinos (1 h 45 min).

Buenavista del Norte – Top Secret Tenerife – Kids and Parents Air

Today’s travel diary post: about Buenavista del Norte, grasshoppers, local hairdressers and killer serpentine. Why top secret? Because information about the municipality is stored behind seven locks in the needle, the needle is in the egg, the egg is in the hands of an employee of the tourist center in Los Remedios Square in Buenavista.

---

Episode 1: Canary Grasshopper

We collect the allowed 50 km/h and go to Buenavista (Buenavista-del-Norte). Cliff, tunnel – familiar road from Cape Teno . The picture outside the window is fascinating: on the left, someone threw a bunch of banana plantations, on the right, mountain giants in velvet robes rise.

Mountains shrouded in green suede, section of highway TF-42 from Buenavista del Norte. Opposite the sign for Los Silos. The coordinates on the map are 28.365505, -16.825604.

Stop, stop! This is the famous Canarian grasshopper, – I shout to my husband.

An insect has grown to the left of the roundabout.

“It’s a dragonfly,” Zhenya puzzled with Drozdov’s voice.

Dragonfly, seriously? The emblem of the municipality depicts two grasshoppers, which the locals consider the symbol of Buenavista del Norte. The date on the monument is 1659, it was in this year that locusts were hosting Tenerife. Everywhere except Buenavista. I know about this because of Garachico , but I don’t know anything about dragonflies – that means hello, grasshopper.

Plaza de los Remedios

We park near the church of the Blessed Virgin Mary the Intercessor (Iglesia Nuestra Senora de-los-Remedios) . The “back of the head” of the church in the title photo.

We go inside. Interestingly, the temple is over 400 years old. True, in 1996 there was a fire and the main altar burned down. Below are 2 interactive photo carousels, feel free to scroll through both.

Interior decoration of the Church of the Virgin Mary in Buenavista

Electric candles. One candle 20 euro cents.

In the center of the village there is a square ( Plaza de los Remedios ), in which a round gazebo-cafe is neatly “fitted”. Oh, lazy electricians here – it’s almost 11 am, and the lights are on all over the village. Among the photos you will find cute Christmas decorations.

Buenavista Central Square

Christmas decorations in Buenavista del Norte

Bust of a prominent figure in Los Remedios Square

At the table, with a cup of coffee, a gray-haired Canarian macho. He reads a magazine and periodically drills us with his eyes. I would drill too. There are many of us, we are noisy and with a bag of crackers.

I want a sign “Put food away, be human! Signature Rotavirus.

Table football revived and inspired. 2 euros, and how many emotions, it would seem.

I hear: “Feliz Navidad! Feliz Navidad! Feliz Navidad and tram-param-pam-pam Buenavista del Norte, gentlemen.” This machine with a horn invites you to New Year’s festivities.

Village color and quarantine near the ninos

Buenavista is a typical Canarian village, with old houses from the 16th century, empty streets and a very slow rhythm of life. Remember I talked about San Juan ? So – Buenavista is a hundred times slower. People are in no rush at all. And even motorists. I stand photographing the house, behind the sidewalk the width of one foot. A car is coming, I let you through, but the driver doesn’t, madam, do your job, I’ll wait. I am delighted!

And what openwork bells and balconies in the village! Slider below.

Hand shaped door knocker.

Someone decorated the balcony for Christmas

Buenavista Street closer to the ocean

Houses closer to the ocean and the cemetery

It’s amazing – they keep the old doors here. On one of them I found a smiley face and the inscription “be happy.”

For the sake of such moments, I am ready to climb into the farthest corners of Tenerife. Dont worry, be happy!

“I will, I will definitely!” smiled back.

While I am having fun, Zhenya seated the children at the table and solemnly ordered 2 coffees. “Ninos?” The waiter asked without hiding his surprise. And ninos on breadcrumbs and water until the New Year.

3 € – the record bill for going to a restaurant in the history of travel.

Sculpture by Moises Afonso as part of a plastic bottle cap collection project. Rehabilitation at the playground.

I sat down on a bench and, in between work and a buzz from quiet Buenavista, Googled what a mysterious metal heart with corks was next to the playground. Googled zero point zero tenths of good.

I had to go to the tourist information center (Spanish and English are spoken). It turned out to be a private project called consciousness-T. The bottom line is the collection of valuable plastic for recycling.

Canarian barbershop

“Enough work, let’s go look for a hairdresser,” Zhenya unexpectedly charged. Oh, if only we knew about the intricacies of local barbers.

Passing the Casa de la Viuda or the Widow’s House, a 17th century building with stonework on the corners.

We went around two hairdressing salons – and both women’s. But on the other hand, in one of them, we were given the address of a male barber shop.

Photographed the cemetery. Under this blue sky, at the foot of the fluffy mountains, people are also dying, alas.

If you haven’t been to the Canary cemetery yet, be sure to go. Even the place of sorrow here is somehow special, bright, calm.

From the cemetery we moved to the address on a piece of paper: Av. Daute, 10, 38480 Buenavista del Nte., Santa Cruz de Tenerife.

Barberia Mendez – an open entrance, a sofa and two similar as two drops of water barbers. By the way, the photos on the Google map are ours. We do not accept other people’s work without mentioning the author.

The interior design is simple but catchy. In addition to haircuts, tattoos are stuffed here and men’s cosmetics are sold.

Zhenya rushed to ask the cost of services (8€ haircut). The guys work in line. If you want to be beautiful – wait 40 minutes. They don’t make any reservations – the priest got up and lost her place. Nothing to do but wait. The children were assigned to the sofa, I wander back and forth along the street.

I am watching a picture: a car drives up and stops in the second lane in the center of the road. Behind her is the second. A girl comes out of the first, a guy comes out of the second. Communicate, shuffle something in the trunk. There is already a traffic jam behind them – they honk, and at least henna for young people.

Finally, it was our turn. They cut their hair in 5 minutes, just vzhuh – and you’re done. Great. But for some reason Zhenya came out with the same haircut as the barbers :). Everyone is happy – we go to the car to the square to move home to Los Gigantes.

Buenavista – Los Silos: coordinates of steep locations

You can go through Masca gorge , or as we do – through Los Silos to the serpentines of Real Las Arenas.

The views here are amazing, but the driving experience is not so good. The road is narrow, goes up sharply on turns at an angle of 360 degrees. That is, you have to turn the car almost on the spot, looking at the sky, and hoping that no one needs to go down. Slightly release the gas pedal – you stall. You rush about, as if stung, between first and second gears. My psyche could not stand it, and with shaking legs and arms, I handed the steering wheel to my husband.

The coordinates of the turn at which I lost my nerve, 28.361878, -16.802644.

3 images at once from the next point. Coordinates on google maps 28.361614, -16.802446. You already know how to use the gallery.

Rock with a hole from the same point.

Paragliding

Amazing location – an old house with a cross near the village of La Tierra del Trigo.

Coordinates 28.356683, -16.802679.

Satellite photo of this house looks different. It is gray, shabby, without arches. It would be very interesting to know what happened here. Why this cross. But the location is also remarkable for the cramped streets. To touch the wall, you just need to look out the car window.

And finally, on the same road is the mirador El Tanque with a stunning view of the Teide volcano .

I was in such a hurry that I forgot to enter the official website of Buenavista. And when I finished the post, there was nowhere to squeeze it in. I will leave here https://buenavistadelnorte.es/.

Four Things to Do in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria When the Wind Blows

Gran Canaria – a great holiday destination for those that love a bit of sea and sand.

Las Palmas, the island’s capital, has one of the best town beaches in the world so it’s little wonder it attracts the crowds. However, the Canary Islands are also renowned for being a bit windy so what do you do if your day in the sun gets a little too blustery for sitting out?

Well, if you’re in Las Palmas the answer is quite a lot…

1 – Poema del Mar Aquarium

There are plenty of good quality bars and restaurants, of course, but there are also treats for the eyes. And top of that list is the Poema del Mar Aquarium, which is absolutely amazing.

The layout is first class and there’s a lot to see but best of all is the sheer scale of it – the main viewing hall has a proper take-your-breath-away impact.

The clear side of the main tank is nothing short of sensational. It was a true highlight of my week-long stay and I smiled throughout my visit. 

Why there are pterodactyls in the first hall, I’ve no idea, but they were fun nonetheless. And who doesn’t love a mudskipper or a crocodile? 

2 – Mercado del Puerto

If you want to eat like a proper local – and check out some fresh produce while you’re about it – then head over to Mercado del Puerto, a short walk north of the aquarium.

The locals sit and chat over a beer while snacking on some great tapas – it’s all very relaxed. You could easily spend a happy hour here look around the stalls in this cast iron monument to food ‘n’ drink while washing down a tasty lunch with a cold beverage. It was a great short stopover.

3- The Elder Museum of Science and Technology

Just around the corner – well, five minutes away – is the Elder Museum of Science and Technology. It contains a whole host of wonderful stuff for big kids of all ages.

A planetarium? Yup. A 3D cinema? Got that, too. Want to green-screen yourself into outer space or view the streets outside as they’d have been through history using a VR headset? Both present and correct.

There were also some interesting medical displays and a recreation of what the building looked like when it was part of the port in the 19th Century.

It’s all a bit mixed and muddled but that was part of the fun for me – not knowing what the next floor would reveal.

The highlight though, was being able to climb into the cockpit of a real jet fighter. I could have played in there all day, re-enacting moments from some of my favourite films, but the queue of children waiting to have a go finally persuaded me to bail out.

4 – Castillo de la Luz

My fourth pick is a castle… who doesn’t love a castle, eh?

Castillo de la Luz may be small but it’s a fun stopover despite its diminutive ramparts. It houses works by local artist, Martín Chirino, who made a mark on the world stage with his sculptures and bronze castings. The castle makes for an interesting backdrop for his work and while it might not be to everyone’s taste it might be just what you’re looking for. 

Four Things to Do in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria when the weather’s bad

So that’s it – four alternatives to sitting on a beach, topping up your tan. All are quite different but all are worth checking out if you’re after something to add a little variety to your stopover in Las Palmas.

After all, sitting in the sun all day can tire out even the most ardent sun seeker.

Cheap Flights to Las Palmas ✈ Find Flight Tickets to Las Palmas, Prices Anywayanyday

Las Palmas is a major Spanish city and the capital of the island of Gran Canaria.

How to get from the airport to the city

International airport, 19 kilometers from the city of Las Palmas.

• Bus. The ticket price is 3.70 euros. Stop near the central part of the terminal.
• Taxi. Stop near all terminals. A trip to the city center will cost 10.5 euros.

How to get around the city

Transport infrastructure in the city is not developed. The bus is the only municipal means of transportation. The fare is 1 euro. If you plan to save money on a trip around the city, order travel cards that will reduce the fare by almost half.

At night you can call a taxi. The payment is fixed – 0.85 euros per kilometer.

Car rental is a great option for active travelers. If you managed to get cheap flights to Las Palmas, use this service. Gasoline prices are low, so a rented car will be much cheaper than a taxi. The average rental price is from 20 euros per day. The service is available to persons with driving experience – from 1 year.

When to go

Las Palmas has the most favorable weather conditions. The tropical climate provides high temperatures, while the cold Canarian current cools the city and reduces rainfall.

What and where to eat and drink

A huge assortment of fish and seafood dishes can be found on the menu of all restaurants. The alcoholic assortment is Canarian and Spanish wines, banana liqueur and honey rum, local beer brands Dorada and Tropical.

If you decide to buy tickets to Las Palmas, pay attention to local restaurants.

• The Cavern Suite restaurant is famous for its delicious national dishes. Dinner for two will cost 15-20 euros.
• Cokí Triana will delight lovers of vegetarian cuisine. Be sure to try the truchas navidenhas dessert – sweet potato cakes. The price of lunch is from 7 euros.
• The Deliciosa Marta restaurant serves the best of Canarian cuisine.
• Lovers of Italian gastronomy will appreciate La Pasta Real.

Mediterranean cuisine is based on the traditions of the Guanches (the indigenous people of the island) and the Spaniards. A popular dish is “papas arrugadas” (boiled potatoes in uniform), used as a side dish for fish and meat dishes, and served with a spicy mojo sauce.

What to see, where to go, what to do

1. Chapel of San Antonio Abad – built in the 17th century on the site of the burnt church of St. Anna. It was here that Columbus prayed as he sailed.
2. Center for Contemporary Art – a place where collections of three great cultures: African, European and Latin American. The permanent exhibition consists of 2,600 items. Particularly valuable is the collection of a group of artists from the El Paso Association.
3. Bishop’s Palace – one of the oldest buildings in the city, built in the 16th century.
4. The port market is a duty-free place. Prices for goods are much cheaper than in the European Union.

Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, a city to be happy

• 07/09/2017

Sunrise in the capital of the island of Gran Canaria. It smells of the sea, fresh coffee and a pork sandwich that the people of Las Palmas love so much. City sweepers have done their job and clean and wet streets are ready to receive citizens. Gradually, street lights and lighting disappear and the bright light of the sun breaks through the buildings, penetrating into every corner, reflected in shop windows and car windows. The day breaks with force into the lively city, the most dynamic and international of all Canary cities. Its inhabitants lightly move towards their jobs.

College stop… girl… kiss and “until yesterday, daddy will pick you up.” There is time for coffee before entering the office.

The clerk looks towards Porta de la Luz, the engine of the whole city and the whole island. Huge cranes, like the hands of a huge clock, work non-stop. Three sparkling cruise ships are like the springs of this mechanism. Two truckloads of containers pull away from the port and a hundred others await the same fate to spread across the city in various directions. Passengers go ashore and a string of taxis disperse in different directions. The younger ones cross the large avenue on foot and with backpacks on their backs, and for the most part head towards the public or private universities of the island. Not everyone was born in this city, but all of them are already like locals. Some were born on another island or in another country, but some reason brought them here to this island, where you can play various outdoor sports all year round, or just enjoy every day in this fun and energetic capital.

Cafes and hairdressers are trying to cope with an avalanche of customers in the first hours of operation. The orderly rows of newspapers and magazines in the market near Santa Catalina Park are waiting for their buyer. And customers look at the thousands of products lying in baskets and on shelves: fruits, vegetables, fish and meat – all fresh and of the highest quality, arrived from all over the island and the world.

Thousands of people are swarming everywhere. The streets of Las Ramblas, Mesa and Lopez are crowded with people hurrying to the center of activity at the very epicenter of activity at this time – Mayor de Triana. Hundreds of cars are parked outside the large Perez Theatre, which rises at the foot of the Guiniguada Theatre. From here you have a stunning view of the towers of St. Anne’s Cathedral and a series of colonial buildings that served as a model of architecture in most cities in South America. Residents of Las Palmas weave among the thousands of tourists looking at the Houses of Columbus, the Museum of the Canary Islands, and the Center for Contemporary Art of the Atlantic Ocean. The cobbled streets of the old town of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria are teeming.

Primorsky district is hidden in the midst of the bustle of the city. San Cristobal Castle, which has its own rhythm of life, its own authentic bars and restaurants, whose verandas are washed by the clearest ocean… Stopping at one of them, having a beer and delicious fried sardines is a vital necessity and an opportunity to replenish your strength for a further walk. And it’s worth taking a walk towards San Juan Hill, strewn with colorful cozy houses and cheerful locals. Your visit to Las Palmas is not complete without climbing up here and taking some pictures of the city’s panoramic skyline.
On the other side of the city, life is much calmer. The sea breeze caresses the outline of Las Canteras beach – by right the best urban beach in the world! Low tide and three kilometers of coastline serve as an outdoor sports ground for thousands of people. And so day after day … every day! Incredible? It’s just that you’re in the city with the best climate on the planet. On one side of the beach rises the majestic Alfredo Kraus Concert Hall, on the other, novice surfers take their first lessons in conquering the waves, learn how to stand up, where it is better to sit, how to behave on the water and how to choose the very one, your own wave. . Everyone looks towards the sea, where the blue waves merge with the blue clear sky. Without a doubt, another perfect day to surf, but also a great day for a paragliding flight from Giles Beach.

A few kilometers from the center of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, a group of tourists goes to the Viera y Clavijo Botanical Garden. The silence reigning in it is only an imaginary calmness of the inhabitants of this unique ecosystem. Frogs, insects, birds and other animal species live for their own pleasure among hundreds of endemics of the Canary Islands, among the most incredible tree crowns, giant cacti, fleshy shrubs decorated with flowers, framed by bridges and ponds … the sound of the wind between the unique dragon trees suddenly subsides you find yourself in thickets of lianas and lindens. You seem to have entered another world, moist and fresh, filled with the aromas of the forest.

And a completely different landscape opens up in the neighborhood … a couple slowly walks around a huge crater, evenly colored in both green and black tones, reminiscent of the volcanic origin of this island.

Where to stay in the Canary Islands

Apartments in Tenerife, the Most Populated of the Canary Islands

Tenerife is the most extensive of the Canary Islands and the most populated of the archipelago. It is home to one of the two capitals of the Canaries, Santa Cruz de Tenerife. One of Tenerife’s biggest draws is Mount Teide. A World Heritage Site, this volcano is the third tallest in the world when measured from its base on the ocean floor. Visitors also love to come to Tenerife for the Parrot Park reserve, which boasts over 3,000 parrots. Another major draw to Tenerife is the active nightlife; try to pick your guesthouse or apartments in the Canary Islands on Tenerife if the club and bar scene is something that you think you would enjoy.

Visiting Gran Canaria: Perfect for Fans of the Great Outdoors

Gran Canaria is home to one of the most famous natural attractions in all of the Canaries: Maspolomas. These dunes located in the south of the island draw many visitors. You will also find the Roque Nublo and Pico de las Nieves mountains in the center of the island, both of which are worth a visit. Gran Canaria also boasts the second of the two capitals, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, which is the most populous city of the Canaries. As Gran Canaria is considered to have both the best weather and best beaches of the Canaries, it’s one of the most popular destinations in the archipelago for a beach holiday. Choose a villa with pool on Gran Canaria, and you’ll be living the dream in the sunshine.

Exploring the Smaller Islands

The Canaries are also home to several small islands and islets, including La Graciosa, Alegranza, Isla de Lobos, Montaña Clara, Roque del Oeste, and Roque del Este. These islands make up a smaller sub-archipelago known as the Chinijo Archipelago. La Graciosa is the only one of these islands with inhabitants, and visiting these islands can be a peaceful treat for travelers who prefer a bit of solitude on their holiday. While you won’t find quite as many choices for accommodations or vacation homes in the Canary Islands here, you will have the opportunity to explore its natural beauty, including four volcanoes, the highest of which is called Las Agujas. Most of the locals make their living with the fishing industry, so be sure to try out some of the local seafood while you’re there.

Which place in Spain is ideal for digital nomads?

Vacation rental platform Airbnb has selected 20 destinations around the world that are ideal for digital nomads.

In Spain, the Canary Islands are ideal for digital nomads.

Among the 20 selected destinations, there is only one Spanish. The rental platform has not only chosen these 20 destinations, but will work with them to make the conditions on site as ideal as possible for remote workers from around the world.

Earlier this year, Airbnb launched the Live and Work Anywhere initiative to identify international destinations where measures are most favorable for foreign (temporary) workers.

With this initiative, the organization also aims to support governments and local tourism promotion organizations. With this, Airbnb hopes to contribute to the resurgence of tourism and the economy after two years of travel restrictions.

In the coming months, Leisure Platform will work with various organizations to create personalized websites and campaigns for their destinations. In doing so, they show the benefits of extended stays, as well as important information about entry requirements and tax laws for foreigners.

Selected destinations range from entire countries to smaller, lesser known cities. They were selected based on their appeal to digital nomads and policy changes in certain cities and regions that want to attract a new type of traveler.

This initiative is based on work during the pandemic. Airbnb then partnered with over 160 governments and promotional agencies to support the return of tourism, including through remote work, to their communities.

“In the two years since the pandemic began, a new world of travel has emerged in which many employees are no longer tied to the office. By partnering with these 20 destinations, we want to make it easier for employees to take advantage of this flexibility and support the return of safe and responsible travel,” said Nathan Blecharczyk, Airbnb co-founder and chief strategy officer.

Top 20 digital nomad destinations:

1. Baja California Sur, Mexico
2. Bali, Indonesia
3. Brindisi, Apulia, Italy
4. Buenos Aires, Argentina
5. Caribbean
6. Canary Islands, Spain
