These volcanic islands are common stops on repositioning cruises and on round trips from Spain and Portugal. The towns are pleasant, but the real draw is the landscape just inland: crater lakes, lava fields, high peaks and cliff-edge roads that are easiest to see with a driver or a guide.

How different are the Canary Islands from one another?
Quite different. Tenerife is dominated by the high volcano of Teide, Gran Canaria has a lively capital and a mountainous center, and Lanzarote is a dry landscape of lava fields and black-sand vineyards.
Do I need a jacket on the islands?
Often, yes. It can be warm at the pier and cool, windy or misty at the high viewpoints on Madeira, Tenerife and São Miguel, so bring a layer for mountain excursions.
