Gran Canaria packs huge variety into one island. Think golden dunes in Maspalomas, pine forests and cratered peaks inland, and lively resorts along the south coast. It’s a brilliant all-rounder - ideal for couples who like to mix beach days with hiking, dining and a little culture in Las Palmas’ Old Town.

Tenerife is all about contrasts. One moment you’re on a black-sand beach, the next you’re winding through banana plantations or gazing up at Mount Teide, Spain’s highest peak. Families love the top-class resorts and water parks, while walkers and food lovers head north for traditional villages and coastal paths.

Striking and stylish - Lanzarote feels like nowhere else in Europe. Volcanic vineyards, lava fields and César Manrique’s iconic architecture give the island its unmistakable look. It’s perfect for travellers who want winter sun with a cultural edge, along with peaceful beaches and clear waters for swimming.
