Cicar vs PlusCar vs AutoReisen: Best Canary Car Hire?
An honest, side-by-side 2026 comparison of the three biggest local Canary Islands car rental firms: Cicar, PlusCar and AutoReisen. It explains why local Canarian companies usually beat international chains (full insurance with low or zero excess and unlimited mileage built into the headline price, so fewer counter surprises), then breaks down each firm on coverage, reputation, deposit, fuel policy, fleet and one-way rentals. The verdict: all three are genuinely solid and the differences are small, so the smart move is to compare them against each other and the international chains for your exact dates rather than guessing.

Nejslunečnější Kanárský ostrov podle měsíce
Lanzarote je podle průměrných hodin slunečního svitu nejslunečnějším Kanárským ostrovem po většinu roku, těsně následovaný Fuerteventurou a jižní Gran Canaria. Ploché východní ostrovy zachycují méně mraků než hornaté západní. Sluneční svit vrcholí v červenci na více než 300 hodinách na nejslunečnějších ostrovech, a i v nejtemnějším měsíci, prosinci, dosahují lídři stále kolem 180-210 hodin.

Canary Islands Weather by Month (2026 Guide)
The Canary Islands enjoy mild weather all year, the "eternal spring" of the Atlantic. Daytime highs sit at 20-23C in winter and 26-29C in summer, with a tiny ~6-7C seasonal swing. The sea stays swimmable, from ~19C in late winter to ~24C in autumn. The sunniest, driest spots are the southern coasts and the flat eastern islands (Lanzarote, Fuerteventura). For winter sun, December-March is peak; July-August are the warmest and busiest.

Which Canary Island Is the Sunniest?
Short answer: the two eastern islands, Fuerteventura and Lanzarote, are the driest and most reliably sunny year-round, with only about 100-150mm of rain. For warmth plus big resorts, the sunny south of Gran Canaria and Tenerife wins. The crucial catch: on every island the south coast is sunny while the north is cloudier and greener, so which coast you pick matters as much as which island.
