Sustainable holiday destinations on the Balearic and Canary Islands π
Buenas noticias: we can go to the Balearic and Canary Islands again ππΌβοΈ! After sitting at home for so long, that’s good news anyway, and now that spring just won’t start here, it’s even better that we can go and visit the Spanish sun again. Of course, we would all prefer to catch a flight directamente – these destinations are simply more difficult to reach by car – but we also know that this is not necessarily very good for the environment. Do you want to enjoy your well-earned holiday as sustainably as possible? We have selected four sustainable holiday destinations for you!
- Lanzarote, the oldest of the Canary Islands, is dedicated to sustainable tourism and is a perfect destination for those who love nature holidays, rural tourism or active holidays. You will also discover impressive volcanic landscapes. If you decide to go and see the Spanish sun and enjoy it on a sustainable way, this destination has it all for you.
- Aripe: a small village in the south-west of Tenerife, 750 meters above sea level, where mass tourism doesn’t arrive. Here we spotted a wonderful house where sustainability truly is a lifestyle: water is heated by solar panels, wastewater is reused as irrigation (this is why you can only use ecological soaps and detergents) and the small vegetable garden with fruit trees is completely organic. At this place, that emanates beauty and tranquility and offers wonderful view, you will be able to relax and enjoy nature absolutamente!
- Looking for a little more luxury? Then Gloria Palace Amadores Thalasso & Hotel is your place to be! Located in the south of Gran Canaria, this resort is committed to using the latest ecological and efficient technologies. For example, 25% of the energy here comes from renewable non-polluting sources, and the swimming pool is filled with sea water. There is also a Glorica Palace location on Lanzarote.
- Ibiza is still a popular holiday destination, and fortunately there are also several sustainable accommodations to be found here. One of them is Can ArabΓ. This agriturismo used to be a farm and at the beginning of the last century it was renovated with special care, to not lose its original style and character. You will eat fresh products straight from the land here and, not unimportant, with a charging point for electric cars, renting electric vehicles is encouraged and stimulated here.
