A Visit to The Canary Islands 2019


Listen Later

In this special episode, we take you on a journey through the vibrant Canary Islands, a trip we took back in 2019 that still lingers fondly in our memories. We explored five of the most unique and diverse islands: Gran Canaria, Tenerife, Madeira, Lanzarote, and Fuerteventura.

Starting in Las Palmas, Gran Canaria, we were captivated by the island's stunning contrasts—from its golden beaches to the lush, mountainous interior. We discuss our walks through the historic district of Vegueta and the vibrant energy of Las Canteras Beach. Las Palmas has this perfect mix of history and modernity that left a lasting impression on us.

Next, we sailed to Santa Cruz, Tenerife, the largest of the Canary Islands. From the bustling port city to the volcanic landscapes of Mount Teide National Park, we recount our adventures hiking the trails and soaking in the dramatic views. We were struck by how Tenerife balances natural beauty with lively cultural scenes—our night at the Tenerife Carnival is a story we can’t wait to share!

Madeira was a little detour, but well worth it. Though not part of the Canary Islands, we couldn't resist visiting this gem of the Atlantic. We loved its lush, subtropical landscapes, levada walks, and the island’s delicious wine. It was a peaceful stop in contrast to the volcanic vibes of the Canaries, with more of a garden-like feel.
