Warm, sunny weather dominates the forecast for the last week of January 2016, although there will be dust on Monday and Tuesday.

An east wind brings warm air and dust at the beginning of the week with the calima expected to be strongest on Monday afternoon and early on Tuesday. After that, the wind swings back to the north east and the dust fades away.

A high pressure over North Africa will keep the skies clear over Gran Canaria for the rest of the week. Expect some high cloud and the odd cloudy patch in the afternoons later on in the week.

The south-east will get gusts of wind throughout the week as the east and north winds collide. 

Temperatures will be in the mid-20s during the day and as low as 15-16ºC at night and before the sun rises. 

The surf will be best along the north coast on Tuesday and Wednesday.

  • 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.
