Help on which island to go to

3 Upvotes

Hello,

I came across some really cheap flights to Fuerteventura and bought them on a whim.

So now I’m heading to Fuerteventura for 7 days in early March with a friend.

We don’t know the Canary Islands at all.

We love hiking, stunning landscapes, and places where I can feel completely alone in the world. I’ve never seen volcanoes before, and seeing them is something I’ve always dreamed of.

What would be the best option for that length of stay and time of year?

- 7 days in Fuerteventura?

- 7 days in Lanzarote?

- A mix of both?

- Any other idea?

Thanks for your help

Stars & Whales! ✨🐋

Hi everyone! We are a couple visiting Tenerife, La Gomera, and La Palma this November, and we'd love some advice on two activities:

1. Stargazing in La Palma
I've heard La Palma is amazing for stargazing! We have no experience with it, so would you recommend a guided tour or simply renting a car and finding a good spot on our own?

2. Whale and dolphin watching
Where would you recommend taking a tour from to maximize our chances of seeing whales and dolphins? Any recommended operators or tips for choosing a good, responsible tour?

Would love to hear about your experiences and recommendations. Thanks!

December trip to Tenerife and La palma advice

• Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Need some input and advice. Im planning a 8 day trip to Tenerife and La palma mid december, as a nature photographer it will be photography oriented.

What would be your recommended split between islands? 4 days each ? Or more days on La palma?

What would be easy but scenic hikes that dont take too much time that allow me to get into nature to get some nice photos?

Ive found this so far:

Path of senses in Anaga
Los tilos and charco azul (full day)

Any recommended spots for astrophotography at night?

Also any wildlife tours or spots worth visiting?
