Situated off the African coast, Gran Canaria has an ideal position in the Atlantic Ocean. With an area of 1,560 km2 and an altitude of 1,956 m, Gran Canaria is the third largest island of the archipelago in both area and altitude and enjoys spring-like temperatures all year round. Gran Canaria is a very mountainous island and rainfall is very rare in the summer months, an average of 21 days per year. With nearly 3000 hours of sunshine annually, this is one of the sunniest places in the world.
In addition to the excellent weather conditions, there are many other reasons that make it so easy to see why Gran Canaria is an ideal all year round place to ride a motorcycle:
The roads are mountainous with abrupt and spectacular landscapes. With only a few short motorways on the Island, Gran Canaria is a biker island heaven.
No other European location can match the Canaries for reliable sunshine and the mountain passes and roads easily match and even excel roads in central Europe, the difference is you can ride here in the winter too – an ideal destination for winter motorcycle tours.
Martin & Joy
Canary Motorcycle Tours was started in 2013 by Martin Flynn and his partner Joy Allen.
Martin, a Motorcycle Instructor with an established motorcycle training school in South Manchester, and Joy, an ex-civil servant of 20 years, decided to start the business after holidaying in Gran Canaria and realizing the awesome potential these roads have and how amazing motorcycling in Gran Canaria is. While there are traditional motorcycle hire companies on the Island Joy and Martin wanted to give friendly and flexible approach to touring while offering the best riding experience and by providing informal guided tours for you instead of you spending half the day map reading.
After additional research, Joy and Martin realized the huge extent of the road network warranted a full weeks motorcycle tour, and Canary Motorcycle Tours began. With their knowledge of the Island, and Martin professional and extensive knowledge of motorcycles, you can be assured of a professional yet friendly week.
The company is continually developing and going from strength to strength with many customers returning year after year. Canary Motorcycle Tours consistently receives 5 star TripAdvisor's and Google reviews in addition to numerous Certificate of Excellence, in recognition for its excellent customer service and commitment to providing value for money. Martin and Joy love island life and believe they have a fantastic job, not only riding on this marvelous island, but meeting fellow riders while showing and sharing their own hairpin heaven. Gran Canaria is biking's best kept secret.
