Gran Canaria Weather: Sunshine For Christmas

Christmas in Gran Canaria will be sunny Christmas in Gran Canaria will be sunny www.photosgrancanaria.com

After two days of autumnal weather in Gran Canaria, the sunshine is back and set to stay for Christmas.

The high pressure that shielded the Canary Islands from bad weather from the North Atlantic has moved back into its blocking position and the wind has shifted back to the east. This means Gran Canaria and the Canaries will get sunshine, warm air and maybe some calima dust over Christmas.

The showers over the last two days were strong in places; The severely misnamed town of Valleseco got 80mm of rain while San Mateo got 40mm. In the south, there was thunder and a couple of sharp showers but no significant rainfall.

Christmas temperatures will be in the mid-20s but won't get to 30ºC. Expect cool evenings and minimum night temperatures around 18ºC.

    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.
