Gran Canaria is part of the beautiful Canary Island archipelago. This West African island chain is incredibly popular for sailors, even those with little experience on the water. On land, be awestruck by the Maspalomas Dunes, experience the rich nightlife of Playa del Ingles, or get up close and personal with astounding aquatic life at Poema del Mar.
There is something for everyone on this small but culturally colorful Canary Island. If you’re planning a yacht, sailboat, or catamaran charter with 12 Knots, Gran Canaria is a great place to start. Here’s why:
The Canary Islands are one of the world’s most popular sailing destinations for many reasons. The climate is warm and mild year-round, with relatively consistent northeast trade winds. Because of its ideal sailing conditions, Gran Canaria is a popular starting point for traveling among the eight main Canary Islands. There are plenty of marinas and mooring sites available, and each island within the archipelago is approximately one day’s sailing apart from each other.
Late spring to early fall is the official sailing season of Gran Canaria and the Canary Islands. The summertime affords the greatest weather conditions; however, this time of year can become increasingly crowded as the tourism season starts. We recommend planning your trip in April, May, or September to receive the best temperatures and less-congested waterways.
12 Knots offers four different crewed and bareboat yacht charters in Gran Canaria, Canary Islands. Each of these yachts is based in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, a well-maintained marina with all the resources you need to enjoy your Canary Island trip. Click the links below to book your adventure!
