Fuerteventura – Endless beaches
Endless beaches with white sand are not only in the Caribbean. You can find them also in Europe on one of the Canary Islands - Fuerteventura. In translation, it means great adventure or strong wind, but you will definitely experience both. Our route was a bit more complicated from Budapest with a layover in Madrid, but we didn't let that discourage us. After all, where else in Europe do you have water temperature above 20°C in the middle of April?
Tenerife – A small paradise in the shadow of a volcano
To bathe in the ocean in the morning and conquer an almost four-thousand-meter peak in the afternoon? Why not, it's a perfect option on the island of Tenerife. At the end of April, we are heading to this largest of the Canary Islands. We had to look for flights a bit more complicatedly, as we flew on the second to last flight to Gran Canaria.
Gran Canaria – Escape to the warmth
It is December 2011, and anyone who thinks that it is not possible to swim during this time is mistaken. The Canary Islands, or the "Islands of Eternal Spring," will quickly prove them wrong. Ryanair operates the Bratislava - Las Palmas route non-stop even in winter, and we managed to book tickets for €88. This time, we focused on exploring the entire island and the capital, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.
Gran Canaria – Three continents in one
At the end of 2010, Ryanair announced a new route from Bratislava to Las Palmas. A unique opportunity to fly to the Canary Islands directly from Bratislava was just waiting for the right deal. By the end of March, we managed to book round-trip tickets for 88€. Our second trip to the Canaries can begin.
Lanzarote – Journey to the Moon
It is the beginning of December and the temperature in Slovakia is below freezing point. How about cooling off in the ocean on the islands of eternal spring? We decided to visit one of the Canary Islands - Lanzarote. We combined two Ryanair flights - Brussels, Brussels - Lanzarote and hoped that nothing would happen during the transfer. The trip was successful and the lunar landscape of Lanzarote left a deep impression on us.
