The only thing that makes a holiday in Gran Canaria better is making sure that your friends at home are jealous. That's why we've created this collection of free, envy-inducing memes perfect for social media.

The weather forecast for this week (week one, November 2015) is simple: It's sunny!

The Gran Canaria weather today is classic October stuff: Blue skies with fluffy clouds.

The worst of the bad weather that walloped Gran Canaria over the last five days is over, although we may get the odd strong shower today.

While Christmas in the sunshine might seem a little strange, you'd be surprised how much of an effort Gran Canaria puts on. It is possible to feel festive and get a tan, especially if you pack your tinsel-trimmed swimming trunks. 

The beginning of the week will see a mish-mash of different weather in the Canary Islands although we expect plenty of sunshine in Gran Canaria's resorts (but also cloudy spells and the odd shower). The next few days will be similar.

That's it folks, back to the beach; at least until Sunday afternoon.
