Three Kings Bring Rain And Cool Temperatures to Gran Canaria

A blast of cold, wet air from the north is due to hit Gran Canaria and the Canary Islands on Three Kings Day (January 6th). 

It will cause temperatures to drop by a few degrees (by up to 10ºC in the highlands) and will bring showers and even the odd intense rainstorm to the north of the island. In the south and the resorts, the effect will be much weaker although you can expect some cloud and even a few showers over the weekend.

The sea will be rough all around Gran Canaria on Saturday and even rougher on Sunday with waves up to five metres along the north coast. The whole of Gran Canaria is on yellow alert for wind on Sunday, with the north on Orange alert for heavy seas. Please stay away from the shore as big waves are unpredictable and dangerous. 

This episode of real weather will fade away throughout Monday.

    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.
