|
The Canaries are made up of a group of seven gorgeous islands, with Tenerife, Gran Canaria and Lanzarote the most popular. Situated off the west coast of Morocco and the Western Sahara, they boast year round sunshine. Once known to the ancient Romans as the Fortunate Islands, the Canary Islands were named after the large dogs (Canes) found living there. Weather conditions here are considered close to perfect, and the beaches are some of the best in the world. This is why the Canary Islands are one of the most popular tourist destinations on the planet, especially with Europeans.
