Guide for Travelling to Canary Islands
The Canary Islands in Spain is a volcanic archipelago. With no mass-tourism development, Canaries have blissful landscapes, picturesque villages, joyful towns, and sumptuous delicacies, along with a budding local culture that is a beautiful combination of Spanish and Canarian culture. Every sunbaked island in this archipelago comes with bubbling sustainable secrets. When travelling to Canary Islands, hiking through the small islands, Vineyards, National Parks, or cloud forests will take you to a different world. You have hardly imagined such mesmerizing places ever on earth.
The best part is that there is no exact season to visit these islands. The tropical climate joins the subtropical climate, resulting in a perpetual springtime throughout the year. So, you can expect the temperature to be around 14 degrees.
Pay a Visit to Lanzarote
Whenever you are planning a trip here, make sure that your to-do list contains Lanzarote at the top. The very term refers to the white-walled magical villages, untouched coasts, enchanting beauty of bougainvillaea, the volcanic cones and the farmers’ markets. Travel to Lanzarote, the UNESCO geopark i.e. Timanfaya National Park, for an unmatched experience amidst nature with gastronomic delights and mindful arts.

Gran Canaria is heaven for those looking for ‘Vitamin-Sea’. There are six major beach resorts from west to east. Among all these six beaches, Maspalomas is the largest, with cafes, amusements, and much more. The entire island is the liveliest beach throughout the year.

La Palma is one of the most beautiful parts of the Canary Islands, with a bewildering view of the volcanic landscape.
– Beaches at Fuerteventura
The northeastern beaches at Fuerteventura are mostly secluded, and that’s why the beauty is still untouched there. If you are into surfing, you are going to get the best waves in Europe there.

From the feel of wilderness to cozy nature, Canaries have varied exquisiteness to offer. Four National parks, two UNESCO geoparks, a consistently growing tourism initiative, and nearness to the Atlantic have made the Canaries the most attractive tourist places in the world.
