The Canary Islands: find your kind of escape
Atlantic beaches, volcanic trails and villages worth lingering in. Choose your island and find inspiration to explore at your own pace.
Eight islands, eight ways to travel
Turismo Canarias helps you choose an island and plan a trip that works for you. Compare landscapes, discover things to do and explore each destination in more detail.
Tenerife
From Teide and the Anaga forests to the beaches and villages of the north. An island where you can combine mountains, coast, and cultural visits in a single trip.
Gran Canaria
The Maspalomas dunes are just the beginning. Beaches, historic neighbourhoods and inland ravines make Gran Canaria an island of changing scenery.
Lanzarote
Volcanoes, whitewashed villages and sheltered coves such as Papagayo. César Manrique’s work reflects the island’s distinctive relationship between architecture and landscape.
Fuerteventura
Pale sand, turquoise water and miles of coastline in Jandía. An island for wide beaches, open roads and unhurried stops.
La Palma
Volcanic trails, forests, and viewpoints over the sea of clouds. Split your days between the summit, the south, and the villages to discover their contrasts.
La Gomera
Walk through Garajonay’s laurel forest, follow paths between small villages and explore deep ravines. Leave time to stop at the viewpoints along the way.
El Hierro
Wind-sculpted junipers, natural pools and rich marine life. Take your time on this small island, with scenic drives and swimming spots framed by volcanic rock.
La Graciosa
Sandy streets, clear-water beaches, and volcanic landscapes opposite Lanzarote. Start at Caleta de Sebo and save time to explore the coast at a relaxed pace.
