Gran Canaria Weather: Another Great Week Coming Up

The weather in Gran Canaria for the next week will be rather boring: Warm and mostly sunny.

Gran Canaria weather memeThe east wind, which had pushed warm, slightly dusty air over the Canary Islands for over a week, looks set to continue for at least another few day. Consequently, weather conditions will remain warm and mostly sunny.

Expect warm days with temperatures in the upper 20s at sea level, and night temperatures that don't drop much below 20ºC.

We could get more calima dust before the weeken, but we're not expecting a heavy calima event. East winds do sometimes bring cloud over from North Africa, but rain is unlikely. The wind is due to switch from east to south on Sunday.

Up in the highlands, clear skies will mean cold temperatures at night and early in the day. Temperatures could even drop below freezing at the top.  

Surfers can expect another week of eminently surfable waves and glassy conditions, especially along the north coast. The water temperature is dropping but is still between 21-22ºC.

  • 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.
