Island Hopping
Seven islands, each with its own character. Hop between them by ferry, flight, or cruise — the Canary Islands were made for it.
Three Ways to Hop
Each island is close enough to visit on a day trip, yet different enough to deserve a proper stay. Choose your mode of transport — or combine all three.
Two major operators and several local services connect the archipelago by sea. Fast catamarans zip between the major islands in under two hours, while conventional ferries serve longer routes with cabin accommodation. Take your car or travel light as a foot passenger.
Ferry Operators

Binter Canarias, the islands' own airline, operates nearly 1,000 flights per week connecting all 7 islands. Hops take 25–50 minutes — the fastest way to travel, especially between distant islands like Lanzarote and Tenerife.

Not for the quality of the ships — but for the sheer convenience. Wake up at a new island, step off, explore, and your hotel follows you. No packing, no airport queues, no ferry timetables to coordinate. See the full cruise section below.
