Gran Canaria in August
Around 25 °C by day, sea 22.9 °C. Warm enough to swim. As busy as the peak.
August on Gran Canaria is 25 °C by day and 22.9 °C in the sea. Load is 3 out of 3 in the north and 4 out of 5 in the south: the island is filling, but the winter peak is still far off.
August works as a heat test, and by Canarian standards there is no heat: twenty-five degrees in Telde and twenty-six and a half in Mogán. The year here is flat, with under seven degrees between the coldest and warmest months. What does differ is rain and humidity: ten rainy days a year in Mogán, thirty-five in Las Palmas. That is the real difference between north and south.
