Gran Canaria in February?

Should be warm in February.
All the Canary Islands can be very windy. Great sand dunes at Las Palomas.

Grand Canaria is also supposed to be the hottest Canary Island.
But do look after your valuable possessions,passport and money.
etc.
Gran Canaria has a real reputation for pick pockets. If you are in a hotel. Definitely get a room safe.

Have a good holiday.

Porto Mogan is a good resort
I also like Maspalomas, you can walk along the beach from there to the main town
I was surprised how much I enjoyed the canaries. Hope to visit in Feb

Did you walk near the dunes. We did but had no idea it was famous for swingers! 🤣 when we got home I looked it up and there are 3 different areas - one for gays, one for straights and one for anything goes. I am not kidding, there were videos of it on YouTube which even made me embarrassed.

Talking about Maspalomas by the way. 😉

We go to the south of Fueteventura (Morro Jable) every Christmas or New Year - as it's the island furthest south in the Canaries - and it's usually beautiful and we love that mid-winter sun.

In 2025 we went to Lanzarote in February and the weather was mixed. Out of seven days we had two days of rain. This year we went to Tenerife beginning of March. All seven days were lovely with some high cloud. The day we were going back the heavens opened, it turned cold and it flooded everywhere as the rain was heavy for a week. It was on the news here. You can never be 100% sure of the weather.

Canaries are amazing especially in the winter months

YescPrimrose walked through the dunes on the way to the city. I’d read about cottaging etc so just walked on. The following year my 19 year old daughter came with me - she was shocked by cottaging and horrified by the fat naked German groups playing basketball ball 🌞

We lived just north of those dunes for a while (in San Agustin), some 20 years ago.

The first time I walked across them was certainly an eyopener.

But the next time was hilarious: walking immediately ahead of me was an English couple, obviously first-timers who hadn't been warned of what to expect. Their expressions, the looks of disbelief that kept passing between them, as well as their comments that I could hear were priceless. 😄

Primrose 53 I also go to Puerto Mogan and have done now for many years and off again in November. I first decided to take the trip because my parents went there when it was a small village with only one hotel and a very small sandy beach.
You mentioned how they have a trip just for gays which is interesting as there are two gay chaps who live next to me and often go to Malpalmos; if I’ve spelt the place correctly.

Not a trip for gays - it’s a whole area of the dunes.

Oldnproud that was probably us walking ahead of you! 🤣🤣
