Canary Information: Located in the Atlantic Ocean, facing the coast of West Africa, the Canary Islands are one of the great tourist destinations of international appeal; are part of Spain and therefore of the European Union, are approximately 1.100 km from the Iberian Peninsula. Well positioned in the sub-tropical range, the Canary Islands have hot winds coming from the African desert, while ocean waters are mitigated by the influx of current from the Gulf of Mexico.
The climate, the main attraction of these places, is always springy throughout the year; This means that even in the summer, but also in winter, average daytime temperatures are between 18 and 25 degrees.
We want to point out that the humidity is very low even in the SUMMER and the climate of the Canary Islands is not as bad as in Italy even during the heat of the year.
Climate in individual Islands is influenced and conditioned by their conformation.
The ones characterized by relief make difficult the wind courses coming from the north, prompting two different climatic conditions: wet, cold and rainy where the winds come and make you feel their influence, dry and sunny where they cannot reach or where they can flow without any obstacle.
Within this general situation, the island of Gran Canaria and Tenerife stand out, with their particular morphological characteristics that can count (each) with close to 100 different microclimates.
A healthy climate.
Since 1800, the Canary Islands have been recommended by luminaries of European medicine as a "miraculous" place for the treatment of certain diseases, especially lung, respiratory, rheumatic and epidermal diseases.
