Frequently asked questions
Which Canary Island is sunniest today?
Right now it's La Gomera, with 83% of its monitored beaches sunny. This page re-ranks all seven islands live from official AEMET beach forecasts several times a day, so the answer changes with the weather.
Why is one Canary Island sunnier than another on the same day?
The islands' high volcanic terrain traps cloud on north-facing slopes while the south and east stay clear — so on the same day La Gomera can be sunny while another island is cloudy. Flatter islands like Fuerteventura and Lanzarote are often sunny across the whole island.
