Gran Canaria Weather: Rain This Week But Mostly In The North

Spain and most of Europe are about to go Baltic due to a vast blob of freezing Polar air and this will push rain and cool air south towards Gran Canaria. It will affect the north and the highlands much more than the south and the resorts. 

From Mondey evening until Friday, north Gran Canaria can expect cool temperatures, cloud and a fair few showers. 

The highlands will be cold and there is a good chance of some more snow on Wednesday and Thursday morning. It will be above 1700 metres. 

The south should be sunny with some cloud on Monday and Tuesday, then get a mix of cloud and sunshine on Wednesday and Thursday. We can't rule out the odd shower.

The sea will be rough all around Gran Canaria on Wednesday and Thursday with waves up to six metres. 

From Friday the cold air will fade away and we'll be back (finger's crossed) to sunshine and smiles in the south by the weekend.

There are waterfalls in the highlands and along the west coast; places like Charco Azul by El Risco and Charco de la Paloma close to Tejeda are well worth visiting. Be aware that the road between Artenara and Tejeda is curreclty cut off due to a landslide.

    Gran Canaria Tip: What Are The Best Car Hire Companies?

    This is one of the most common questions we get in our Facebook Group (with over 30,000 members) and fortunately, it is an easy one to answer. The Gran Canaria Info admin team and the fans in our Facebook group agree...

    The best car hire companies in Gran Canaria are local ones with desk at the airport and honest pricing policies that don't have any hidden insurance or fuel deposit costs. They just rent you a good car at a good price with no fuss at all. 

    We recommend Mr Car Hire Gran Canaria (Nick); an idependent car rental professional who works with all the main local rental companies in Gran Canaria. This means that he can always find you a good deal.

    Mr Car Hire also offers fully comprehensive insurance on all car rental, three-day bookings, and delively of your car right to your door anywhere in Gran Canaria. 

    We advise all Gran Canaria visitors to avoid booking the cheapest possible car on generic car rental websites or via their flight company because you often end up paying large deposits, extra fuel and insurance costs and all kinds of other costs once you arrive to pick up your car at the airport.
