Ferries Canary Islands

The Canary Islands are a volcanic archipelago off the coast of West Africa, consisting of seven major islands whose natural landscapes hark back to every region of the world.

To the west, in the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, are the islands of El Hierro, La Palma and La Gomera. These pristine islands are characterized by lush vegetation, green hills and steep lava stone cliffs. They are ideal for hikers and those seeking a quiet and relaxed lifestyle.

In the eastern part of the archipelago, under the province of Las Palmas, are the islands of Fuerteventura and Lanzarote. Also worth mentioning is the islet of La Graciosa, reachable from Lanzarote in 30 minutes, a small, unspoiled and protected gem of the Maritime-Terrestrial Natural Park of the Chinijo Archipelago.

In the middle are the two main islands of Tenerife and Gran Canaria, which have all the natural features of the other islands, such as desert beaches and dense Canarian pine forests, but are also the two main administrative centers and the beating heart of Canarian life.

In general, the Canary Islands offer a large number of benefits to their visitors, such as a climate that allows them to enjoy their beaches year-round, a lifestyle that is as lively as it is relaxed, and a gastronomy that is considered the most original and cosmopolitan in Spain.
