The Canary Islands have been attracting visitors to their glistening shores in many years. Presented as a perfect island paradise package, it is hard to see why someone does not want to visit. But even these have leave little gems in the tough economic climate. Throughout 2009, the number of visitors has been regularly reported in the press and the beaches calm on the islands have been encouraged to take this opportunity to undergo a refresh. It is hoped that all this will encourage more visitors and stimulate the economy. In the meantime. Tourists wishing to experience reduced crowds and cheap Canary Islands hotels should head to the islands now
Canary Islands, which includes the popular Tenerife, Fuerteventura, Gran Canaria and Lanzarote, as visitor numbers fall by around 15% in the first five months of 2009 compared to same period in 2008, according to BBC. An unfortunate combination of a weaker pound and the closure of certain large airlines and tour service on the islands has contributed to current problems.
The islands have not been sitting idly by, however. Local authorities take decisive steps in the form of foreign investment of up to 120 million euros over the next four years to give the islands for a lift. They are not the only ones to intervene, either. Private hotels use quiet period as an opportunity to renovate. This reinvention is seen as a way to combat the recent problems and help restore the Canary Islands to their rightful place as a top holiday destination.
Future visitors to the islands will have the opportunity to benefit from these efforts. Meanwhile, holidaymakers enjoy deals on Canary Islands hotels that are as low as 15 pounds per person per night for a two person self catering apartment in Playa De Las Americas, Tenerife - and enjoy a more peaceful holiday experience at the same time.
