Canary Islands: The mildness of the Canarian climate, their beaches and their strategic situation have been the determining factors in converting them into one of the main sun and beach tourist destinations in the World. However, the Canaries offer the tourist much more than sun and beaches. 

More than five hundred beaches entice sun-worshippers to the 1,114 kilometres of coast around the Canarian Archipelago. Diversity is the main characteristic of the coast, where you can find, on the one hand, beaches of fine golden sand, and on the other, rugged areas where you can only swim in the natural pools which form between the rocks
