Canary Islands consist of seven islands and 6 islets. The islands are truly Spanish and of volcanic origin. Located in North Atlantic Ocean. They were formed by the ‘Canary hotspot’ and offer more than 500 beaches. Two cities share the status of being the capital city of Canary Islands: Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and Santa Cruz de Tenerife.The Canary Islands are closest to the equator than any other island in the world. The third tallest volcano in the world, Mount Tiede, is located in Renerife. The highest peak in Spain (3,718 metres), declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco. Tenerife is the biggest island among all the Canary Islands. Four of Spain's thirteen national parks are located in the Canary Islands.
