A quick jaunt to Playa de los Pocillos on the southeast coast offers sun-soaked pleasure, easily accessed with a stay at the stunning <a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/offer\/lani-suites-de-luxe-spain-europe\/0062y00000FOLSsAAP\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lani\u2019s Suites De Luxe<\/a>.

At Parque Rural De Anaga, on the north coast, nature glows with moss-covered \u2018dragon\u2019 trees, and the nearby Afur village is flush with fairytale landscapes \u2013 all protected under a UNESCO listing.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By contrast, the cosmopolitan capital of Santa Cruz is where holidaymakers go for al fresco dining or to click their heels towards the nearby La Laguna for a taste of nightlife. Down south, Costa Adeje beckons with family fun and nautical expeditions. Take the kids to Siam Park or Aqualand to splash off the heat, chill on the beach and go whale-watching \u2013 Tenerife will stock your itinerary to the brim.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gran Canaria for world-class beaches<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/au\/search?destinationName=Canary+Islands&amp;destinationId=le_9508dfde731fcf464dda8580fc228204&amp;adults=2&amp;children=none&amp;flexibleWithDate=true&amp;pages=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/shutterstock_1595538268-1024x599-1.webp 1024w,https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/shutterstock_1595538268-1024x599-1-350x205.webp 350w,https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/shutterstock_1595538268-1024x599-1-768x449.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/shutterstock_1595538268-1024x599-1.webp\" height=\"599\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/shutterstock_1595538268-1024x599-1.webp 1024w, https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/shutterstock_1595538268-1024x599-1-350x205.webp 350w, https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/shutterstock_1595538268-1024x599-1-768x449.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" class=\"wp-image-4453 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"An aerial shot overlooking Gran Canaria bay, one of the best places to visit in the Canary Islands, Spain - Luxury Escapes\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">There is no shortage of palm-lined beaches in Gran Canaria.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have ever referred to yourself as a sun baby or beach bum, then the Canary Islands\u2019 grand jewel is for you. Playa de Las Canteras is Spain\u2019s best urban beach, but what sets this coastline apart from the rest of the Canaries? It has to be diverse topography and its sliding scale of beach vibes, leaving a shoreline for every mood. Take advantage of the ban on boisterousness at Playa de Amadores. Curtsey down dunes on camelback in Maspalomas or dance between neon-lit shopping strips and beachside cabanas at Playa Del Ingles, located just moments from the sun-soaked <a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/offer\/barcelo-margaritas-royal-level-gran-canaria-spain-europe\/0062y00000FcdLiAAJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Barcelo Margaritas Royal Level<\/a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There\u2019s plenty to explore further ashore. Dive into local traditions by participating in Fiesta del Charco, an annual fish-catching event around La Aldea de San Nicolas pond.

This sunny archipelago is an outdoorsy dream, with a healthy mix of surfable waves, hiking trails, diving sites and warmly lit villages brimming with salt-laden gastronomy. Hop from the historic centre of El Cotillo, with its Friday market and world-class beaches, to Pajara, where Aztec-inspired architecture meets onyx sand.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The island&#8217;s endless sunshine and cooling winds make the perfect conditions for adventure. Kite surf turquoise waves at Flag Beach in Corralejo Natural Park or conquer the island&#8217;s famous dunes on the back of a buggy.
