The Canary Islands have been an important departure point for vessels crossing the Atlantic since Columbus first did it. But besides this the canaries have become a popular cruising ground as it is possible to sail all year round with the islands favourable climate, in fact many charter firms now prefer the Canaries to the Mediterranean. The average temperature is 25˚C and seldom varies more than 5˚ either side. Water temperatures range from 19˚ to 23˚C.
There are seven major islands spread over a distance of 240 miles in an east - west line. It is generally possible to sail from one island to the next in daylight with all of the islands having good, modern marinas.
