The Canaries are a seething mass of oiled flesh jiggling in the lap of the waves and to the beat of discos, bars and gay nightclubs. They offer the worst of mass tourism; but they also offer some of the best beaches within easy escape from a snowy European winter. It's not all mass tourism, though. Beyond the mega resorts you can still find tiny fishing villages, whitewashed hamlets perched on hilltops and even a few wild places within the dull roar of a volcano or with mist dripping through primeval forests. You certainly won't be treading where none have trodden before, but the Canaries pack enough into seven islands to satisfy most tastes. |
