Canarian cooking leans on seafood pulled fresh from the water, goat cheese, and papas arrugadas served with mojo sauce. Flights run frequently between the Canaries and mainland Spain, while ferries and short hops link one island to the next. Spanish serves as the primary language across the Canary Islands, so a few basic phrases help visitors navigate daily interactions.
