Gran Canaria Weather: A Warm, Even Tropical, December Week

The weather in Gran Canaria goes Tropical this week The weather in Gran Canaria goes Tropical this week www.photosgrancanaria.com

The warm weather looks set to continue in Gran Canaria this week as tropical air heads north.

The east wind that gave us hot, sunny days for the last two weeks has swung to the south. This means that we'll get warm tropical air over Gran Canaria and the Canary Islands for the next few days. 

Expect warm days with plenty of sunshine, although there may be some high cloud at times (wear suncream as you can still burn easily under high cloud).

This spell of great weather looks set to continue all week as stable high pressures over North Africa are blocking any weather systems that form in the North Atlantic. 

Temperatures will be in the high 20s during the day and shouldn't drop much below 20ºC until late at night. 

There's not much going on in the water. The wave forecast is small for the whole week.

  • 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.
