    The Canary Islands are set off the coast of western Africa, the archipelago consists of 7 islands and 6 islets and is divided into two provinces. At the east, the first one is called Las Palmas de Gran Canaria with 3 islands - Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura, Lanzarote and the islets. At the west is Tenerife, La Palma, La Gomera and El Hierro which form the second province named Santa Cruz de Tenerife.

    The islands belong to Spain and although part of the European Union, avoid various European custom/duty charges. The Canaries enjoy hot sunny weather all year round, duty free prices and are home to some of the best beaches & weather in Europe.

    The purpose of this site is to offer my knowledge & experience (having lived on Gran Canaria & worked in tourism here since 1997) plus resources so you can get the most out of your visit to the Canary Islands.

    We have one of the largest and busiest forums for tourism Gran Canaria, a travel guide and travel blogs. Search the forums for answers to any questions you may have or keep coming back to check the news section to find out what's happening around the islands.
