This Spanish archipelago, just off the coast of North Africa, is renowned as a wonderful winter sun destination, but don’t be fooled: there is plenty to enjoy year-round. Relax on beautiful black sand beaches, explore the volcanic landscapes of Timanfaya National Park on Lanzarote, marvel at long, golden beaches backed by seemingly endless dunes on Fuerteventura, and luxuriate in sleepy peacefulness of tiny La Gomera and La Palma.
