Weather Conditions

---

Gran Canaria is known for its year-round good weather, yet we still have a Winter, which generally means the air temperature is cold.

In the South (by the coast): In the sun you will feel hot and can easily burn, however in the shade or after sunset it can feel cold and you will need a jumper (and possibly long trousers).

In the North or in the Mountains: The higher you go the colder it will get and it is possible to get rain (we do have a rainforest in the North). We recommend layers, starting the day in t-shirt and shorts progressing to jumper/jacket and long trousers as you hike higher or the sun fades.
