The sun, the breeze and the leisurely pace of the Canary Islands create the perfect setting for extraordinary experiences all year round. Here, experiences are designed to be felt: sailing at sunset, exploring volcanic landscapes, diving into the Atlantic or dining al fresco under a starry sky.
Experience nature intensely
Discover the Canary Islands through their most unique landscapes, with experiences aimed at helping you reconnect with nature and yourself. Small groups and specialist guides turn each outing into an intimate encounter with the region.
Delve into exclusive itineraries that lead to places which keep the essence of the archipelago intact: trails that pass through laurissilva forests, volcanic mountains and coasts where the Atlantic reveals itself at its purest. There are themed itineraries, including forests, history and wine, or volcanoes and lunar landscapes which culminate in picnics featuring local produce in enclaves where silence, light and the immensity of the scenery are the best accompaniment.
For anyone seeking thrills under the sea, one can venture underwater on dives among sunken ships, schools of fish and lava seabeds. An experience where the magic of the ocean envelops every movement, and the sensation of floating is coupled with the wonder of discovering a different world under the water.
Pause to take in the scenery
There are times when the surroundings invite you to be swept along by the beauty of the moment. Imagine sailing at sunset, when the golden light fuses with the ocean and dolphins accompany you on your journey. In those quiet hours, the sea becomes an intimate setting where marine wildlife can be glimpsed from close quarters. Or discover secluded coves and cliffs that are only revealed from the sea on a sailing boat, unveiling a different, silent coastline.
The clear skies of the Canary Islands, recognised as a Starlight Reserve, are a spectacle worth experiencing calmly. Get to know them in depth with astrophotography workshops alongside a National Geographic photographer, an experience that brings together technique and emotion to capture the immensity of the firmament. Or enjoy a private dinner under the Milky Way and turn the beach into an observatory of sensations, with the sound of the sea as the common thread. You can also do this by tasting local wines among volcanic landscapes just as the stars start to twinkle on the horizon.
Playing golf in complete harmony with the landscape, without foregoing the convenience of your accommodation, is another way of enjoying the archipelago. Here, golf courses are integrated into natural, environmentally friendly surroundings. Places where every stroke is accompanied by silence, the breeze and the vastness of the horizon.
Culture to be experienced and savoured
The identity of the Canary Islands is unveiled through experiences that highlight their cultural and gastronomic heritage. From private visits to monasteries, caves and necropolises that have stood the test of time - testimonies to the ingenuity of the archipelago’s first inhabitants - to the chance to sleep in the traditional cave houses of Risco Caído and the sacred mountains of Gran Canaria, a World Heritage Site. An incomparable way to connect with this legacy while enjoying the comfort and natural surroundings of these historic enclaves.
The traditional gastronomy also takes centre stage with proposals that revive near-forgotten recipes and flavours, served outdoors in 17th-century farmhouses, under ancient fig trees that shade tables where every dish tells a story.
Visits to museums or contemporary art galleries with private guides allow visitors to discover the history and artistic creation of the islands in a personalised way. Following in the footsteps of César Manrique, some venues organise meetings with local artists and creative activities to reveal the inspiration that springs from the Canarian landscape.
For an immersive experience of seafaring customs, one can also accompany local fishers on fishing trips: feel the sea breeze as the fishing line moves to the rhythm of the waves in search of tuna, mahi-mahi and the imposing Atlantic blue marlin.
Wellness from natural elements
Body care and relaxation in the Canary Islands stem from the elements that define the archipelago: the sea, volcanic soil and a temperate climate that beckons one to rest at any time of year.
Thalassotherapy circuits harness the properties of Atlantic water, salt and mild temperatures to revitalise body and mind. Seawater pools at different temperatures, jets and bubble beds stimulate the circulation and favour relaxation, creating a comprehensive wellness experience.
Geotherapy with volcanic clay, as well as hot stone massages, are rituals that harness the heat and mineral energy of the rock to relax the muscles, activate the circulation and balance body and mind. These treatments connect with the fiery nature of the region and turn each session into a profound wellbeing experience.
Breathe, move, renew
Beyond rest, wellbeing is also cultivated through movement, breathing and inner connection. Experiences that combine yoga, meditation and mindful practices outdoors, in open spaces that invite calm and silence. Each session seeks to reconnect with the self and with the essence of the surroundings, letting the natural rhythm of the island mark every breath.
There are also programmes focused on mindful sleep and holistic health, which integrate the science of rest with activities such as calm yoga, guided meditation and personalised advice. An experience that invites you to restore your body’s natural rhythms and achieve deep wellbeing through rest.
On the sea, one can practise yoga on board private boats, where the gentle rocking of the ocean accompanies every movement and the horizon becomes part of the session. These activities, together with mindfulness proposals in the heart of nature, invite you to find an equilibrium between body and mind, allowing the environment to become part of your own wellbeing.
The other half of the day
After a busy day, it’s time to enjoy a different pace. Afternoons are filled with strolls around charming shops, seafront terraces and spaces where leisure and peace and quiet blend with the sound of the sea.
Marinas are transformed into sophisticated spaces, surrounded by select boutiques, restaurants with sea views and terraces where you can toast the sunset under the Atlantic light. Some coastal corners, with canals, colourful façades and yacht harbours, beckon you to stroll among cafés and boutiques, creating an atmosphere of exclusivity by the ocean.
And when the day fades away, the night reveals its most vibrant facet. Rooftops come alive with light and music, offering cocktails to be enjoyed facing the ocean while the sound of the waves accompanies every conversation. In spaces where contemporary cuisine merges with elegant rhythms, live music sets the tone for unique evenings, designed for experiencing the night with style and sophistication.
