Nevertheless, there is a low season for each island: Tenerife, La Palma, La Gomera and El Hierro observe a drop in attendance in summer, as other nearby European destinations are privileged. On the other hand, Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura and Lanzarote are full in summer due to the beautiful beaches that these islands offer.
