Isles and air miles: Channel vs Canary Islands

Jump aboard a flight to Guernsey with Aurigny and experience some beautiful outdoor adventure with the rest of the Channel Islands only a quick ferry ride away.

The Canaries will warm you up all year round with sunshine hours in excess of anything we see in the North of Europe. From Tenerife you could even explore quiet La Palma.
