Known for their year-round sunshine, mild climate, beaches perfect for relaxation or watersports, and rich biodiversity, the Canary Islands are a popular tourist destination.
In 2025, the Spanish archipelago welcomed 18.4 million visitors who stayed for an average of around nine days. Unlike other Spanish destinations, such as Barcelona and the wider region of Catalonia, the Canary Islands doesn’t impose a levy on visitors – however, travellers will soon be able to make voluntary contributions to support the islands' sustainability efforts.
