What to expect from a Gran Canaria winter, and how much spending money to budget in euros and pounds at today's rate.
While the UK shivers, Gran Canaria stays warm and bright. Here's what to expect from November to February, so you can pack (and budget) accordingly.
| Month | Daytime high | Sunshine | Wet days |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nov | 22°C | 6 hrs | 4 days |
| Dec | 20°C | 6 hrs | 5 days |
| Jan | 19°C | 6 hrs | 4 days |
| Feb | 19°C | 7 hrs | 3 days |
Gran Canaria is a “mini-continent” of a winter escape: sand dunes at Maspalomas, mountains inland, and reliably mild days in the high teens to low twenties through the winter, with only a few wet days a month in the sunny south.
Playa del Inglés and Puerto Rico are built for winter sun, with sheltered beaches and value dining, while Las Palmas gives you a real city on the doorstep. Short flight, easy euros, and warmth you can count on from November to March.
Spending money below covers food, local transport and activities per person, not flights or hotels. Slide your nights and pick how you travel.
