Canary Islands Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia

The Canary Islands are a Spanish archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean, just off Morocco in North Africa.

Formed by volcanic eruptions and shaped by hot desert winds, they are comprised of 7 main islands.

When powerful seismic forces lifted these islands out of the ocean millions of years ago, they sculpted landscapes of unimaginable beauty.

So spectacular are the Canary Islands that for centuries, it was believed that this archipelago formed the peaks of the legendary lost city of Atlantis.

Today, the Canary Islands are a magnet for sun seekers, beachcombers and adventurers from all over the world.

With, 160 miles of coastline, 150 beaches and a climate that feels like it is always spring, the island of Fuerteventura is a perfect place to start your exploration.

Head to Corralejo, once a small fishing village, now one of the island's largest resort towns.

Just a short walk away is Corralejo Dunes National Park, with dunes that seem to stretch out forever.
