Canary Yacht Charter

The name of the Canary Islands is probably derived from the Latin term Insula Canaria, meaning Island of Dogs. It believes that a dense population of fierce dogs, like the Presa Canario, inhabited the island of Gran Canaria during the Roman era.

Before European settlement villages similar to North African Berbers inhabited the islands. They became known as the Guanches, although Guanches was originally the name of the indigenous inhabitants of Tenerife.

In 1402, the Spanish conquest of the islands began with an expedition to the island of Lanzarote. From there, they conquered Fuerteventura and El Hierro and established a base on the island of La Gomera, but it would be many years before the island was truly conquered. The natives of La Gomera and Gran Canaria, Tenerife and La Palma, resisted the Spanish invaders for almost a century.

The Canary Islands were then a source of dispute between Spain and other European powers. The attack serious took place in 1599 when a Dutch fleet of 74 ships and 12,000 men, attacked the capital, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The Dutch then laid siege to the city but eventually left the site of Las Palmas and withdrew.

Another notable attack occurred on July 25, 1797, when a British fleet in the future Admiral Lord Nelson attacked Santa Cruz de Tenerife. The British were repulsed losing nearly 400 men. It was in this battle that Nelson lost his right arm.

Rivalry among elites in the cities of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and Santa Cruz de Tenerife for the capital of the island led to the division of the archipelago into two provinces in 1927. This has not remained the rest of the rivalry between the two cities, which continues to this day.

When the prevailing wind, the NE offices, meet the high mountains, the moisture condenses and the windward side of the islands to see a good amount of rain. This explains the diversity in the Canary Islands pine forest on sand dunes, green valleys of the north, hot and dry desert in the south. According to the position of the islands with respect to the trade winds, weather may be mild and wet or too dry.

The Canary Islands economy is based primarily on tourism, nearly 10 million visitors each year, representing 32% of GDP. construction accounts for nearly 20% of the GDP and tropical agriculture, primarily bananas and snuff, are produced for export markets. Tomatoes, potatoes, onions, cochineal, sugarcane, grapes, vines, dates, oranges, lemons, figs, wheat, barley, corn, apricots, peaches and almonds also grown.

Canary's geographical position means that there is generally good winds for sailing. Northeast trades who once had America Columbus funnel through the creation of islands known as wind acceleration zones and this means that even with fairly light winds there is still enough wind for a large.

Despite its position near the tropics, the Canaries are not too hot in summer, 21-29 ° C, comfortably warm in winter, 15 at 20 ° C, and may be regarded as an area year-round yacht. Storms are rare and the islands affected by hurricanes.

The seven main islands in the Canary Islands are well spaced so that only a day's sail between most of them.

The island still retains the character of the Canary Islands and neighboring biggest difference is not suffering from mass tourism, although it is only a short drive from main Tenerife (Sur) airport.

The center of San Sebastian, the capital of La Gomera, has changed little since Columbus's fleet was anchored in the bay. Torre del Conde, the Church of the Assumption, where members of the expedition were blessed with the Pozo de la Aguada - which was drawn the water, which he named United States, have survived to this day.
