The Canary Islands are a paradise like group of islands of sunshine and fine sand beaches that enjoy a wonderful climate and constant temperature throughout the year. This archipelago consists of 7 islands which are surprising in their diversity with the landscape of each island being radically different to the others.
Tenerife, also known as the Island of Eternal Spring due to its constant weather, is the largest island of the archipelago. Here you will find the most varied landscapes of all the islands: a mountain range with the awe inspiring volcanic crater of Cañadas del Teide, with a diameter of 20 kilometres, and the 3.718 meters high Mount Teide at its centre; extremely fertile valleys with important cultures of bananas and tomatoes; and a seafront offering beautiful steep coasts as well as wide beaches of fine volcanic and white sand.
Gran Canaria is known as the Small Continent because of its extremely varied landscapes. With European, African and even American vegetation all next to each other there are very few places on earth where you can find such different landscapes and even climatic zones being geographically that close one to each other. The mountain range in the island's centre, of a height of about 2000 meters, is cut by some bizarre canyons, some that lead through desert land and some through tropical forests to a coastline of wide sandy beaches.

Fuerteventura is nicknamed the Old Land as it is believed to be the island with the oldest history. Only a very narrow channel separates Fuerteventura from the African continent and the views from the coastline are very impressive. Fuerteventura has the longest beaches of the entire archipelago, of wonderful fine sand and has become a paradise equally for spending holidays at the beach as for fishing and water sports.

Lanzarote is something different from everything, not only to the islands that surround it, but to the rest of the planet. This extraordinary landscape seems to be of another world, and the inhabitants of the islands used to say that on the seventh day God had forgotten Lanzarote. Lanzarote, like the others of this archipelago is of volcanic origin, but unlike the others whose volcanoes have been largely dormant for centuries here the volcanoes were still active in the 18th and 19th century. Great parts of the islands surface are covered with ashes and lava, making you feel that you were on the moon although now Lanzarote's inhabitants have made a great effort to cultivate this land, and today you can find large plantations of fruits and vegetables and even vineyards between volcanic craters in the region of Geria.
