Disfruta de las mejores playas y calas de Canary Islands en una experiencia costera inolvidable.
The Canary Islands are an archipelago of volcanic origin anchored in the Atlantic, a subtropical paradise that offers a world of diversity on each of its islands. Tenerife, crowned by the majestic Mount Teide, Spain's highest peak, combines ancient forests with vibrant resorts. Gran Canaria, a 'miniature continent', goes from the desert dunes of Maspalomas to leafy valleys in its interior. Lanzarote, the island of fire, is a canvas of art and nature sculpted by César Manrique on lunar volcanic landscapes. Fuerteventura is the paradise of wind and endless white sand beaches. La Palma, 'the Beautiful Island', is an orchard of laurel forest and starry skies. La Gomera is a labyrinth of ravines with an ancestral culture such as the Gomero whistle. And El Hierro, the smallest, is a world example of sustainability and a paradise for diving. Traveling to the Canary Islands is jumping from one universe to another in a short trip by boat or plane.

** Ride the cable car above the clouds to almost the top of the Teide volcano. To access the peak, you need a special permit that is requested online. The views and landscape of the National Park are from another planet.
** A trip to the bowels of the earth. Travel by bus through the lunar landscape of the National Park, where the underground heat is still active, and attend geothermal demonstrations.
** Delve into this enormous volcanic crater covered in Canarian pine forests, with streams and waterfalls. One of the most spectacular hiking routes in Spain.
** Walk through a fossil forest, a relic of the Tertiary Era that has disappeared in almost the entire planet. The constant fog and twisted trees create a magical atmosphere.
