The Canary Islands are an African archipelago which are part of Spain and consist of seven islands (Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura, Lanzarote, Tenerife, La Palma, Gomera, and Hierro) and six islets of volcanic origin in the Atlantic Ocean. During a yacht charter in the Canaries, you move from sub-tropical vegetation to volcanic semi-deserts, from verdant cliffs and gorges to sand dunes by the sea shore. A yacht charter vacation will allow you to enjoy the most of this exceptional natural environment Sailing the Canaries is extremely challenging. There are strong winds and as they pass between all the islands they create a sort of wind tunnel effect that require experience to handle.
