about Canary Islands Spain
Blessed with year-round sunshine, the island of Tenerife is an excellent place to escape to during our winter months and although the beaches and warm waters are its main appeal, it also has many other attractions which include the emergence of a new breed of deluxe hotels.
Tenerife is known mainly for its busy tourist areas, but there is much more to this diverse Canarian island. If you look further afield, away fromthe hustle and bustle, you can discover a lesser known side to the island including picturesque towns like Costa Adeje and La Laguna and areas of outstanding natural beauty, such the island's botanical gardens or the national park surrounding Mount Teide.
Lanzarote is located just off the coast of Africa and is the most easterly of the Canary Islands. Being a volcanic island, it has some stunning scenic features such as the longest volcanic tunnel in the world, the Atlantida Tunnel. Despite the volcanic nature of the island, there are several beautiful white beaches such as Playa Blanca and Papagayo.
Gran Canaria is dubbed ‘The Small Continent’ as it has extremely varied landscapes with European, African and American vegetation. Maspalomas is the most beautiful of the many beaches on the island. Natural attractions such as a magnificent thermal spring called Balneario de los Berrazales and other volcanic sights are great for a day's sightseeing.
