About this experience

Campsites in Canary Islands (Spain) are designated outdoor accommodation areas across Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, Fuerteventura, La Palma, La Gomera, and El Hierro. These sites range from basic municipal pitches to equipped zones with toilets, showers, and picnic tables, often set near volcanic landscapes, pine forests, or coastal cliffs. Camping is permitted only in authorised zones, with most sites operating on a first-come, first-served basis and requiring advance registration for peak periods.

What to expect

  • Pitches are typically unmarked and set on compacted volcanic soil or grass, with capacity for 2-4 tents per plot
  • Most sites provide shared cold-water showers, chemical toilet disposal points, and a central water tap; electricity is rare
  • You will see endemic flora such as Canary Island pine or tabaiba spurge, and hear native birds like the blue chaffinch
  • Sites in Teide National Park (Tenerife) sit at 2,000-2,200 metres altitude, with night temperatures dropping below 5°C even in summer
  • Coastal campsites on Fuerteventura and Lanzarote are within 200 metres of the shoreline, with direct access to black-sand or pebble beaches
  • Suitable for self-sufficient campers with their own tent, sleeping bag, and cooking stove; no rental equipment or on-site shops are provided
