14 Days isolation for Brits returning from the Canary Islands

There is no UK government travel advisory against travelling to the Canary Islands but UK citizens must isolate for 14 days after returning.

The Canarian government is trying to get "safe air corridors" between the UK and the Canary Islands, as there are currently hardly any Corona cases on the islands, unlike mainland Spain where cases have been increasing sharply over the last few days.

The idea is convincing the UK government to seperate the Canary Islands (and the Balearic Islands) from the the rest of Spain, so visitors don't have to isolate for 14 days when they return from a holiday.

In the Canary Islands, there are 5,8 cases of COVID-19 per 100.000 inhabitants, which is one of the lowest numbers of Europe.

  • The Best Gran Canaria Weather Forecast
    The Best Gran Canaria Weather Forecast

    The single most common question we get in the Gran Canaria Info group is...

    What is the weather going to be like during my holiday?

    The answer is almost always the same: If you are going to south Gran Canaria's resorts, it is very likely to be sunny every day. Yes, even in the winter. Yes, even though your weather app says it is going to be cloudy. Yes, even in January. And in February, etc.

    Obviously it does sometimes rain in Gran Canaria, even in the sun-baked south, and there are occassional cloudy days. 

    To check for these rare rain and clouds there is no point using generic weather apps because they use data that averages out the weather and temperature across Gran Canaria.

    This means that the forecast for Puerto Rico and other resorts includes weather and temperatrure predictions for inland and highland areas that are cooler and cloudier.

    So, instead of believing your current weather app use the Spanish weather service website called the AEMET. It's website has detailed and very accurate forecasts for individual resorts, town and even beaches.

    Here's the forecast for the Mogán area including Puerto Rico.

    The mobile website works very well in English although the app is only in Spanish at the moment.
