While Spain is expected to swelter in 40ºC heat over the weekend, Gran Canaria and the Canary Islands will be no hotter than normal for the time of year.

The Spanish weather service has alerts out for most of mainland Spain this weekend, but does not expect the Canaries to see temperatures about 32ºC.

The weather forecast for Gran Canaria this weekend is for pretty much constant sunshine all over the island except for the north coast where morning clouds and even a few spots of rain are expected.

Expect some gusts of wind on Maspalomas beach on Sunday.

AEMET is warning that temperatures in Gran Canaria and the Canary Islands will rise early next week, especially at higher altitudes.

Next week looks good for surfers: The swell is a consistent 1-4-1.5 metres from Sunday to 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.
