Gran Canaria Island Climate

Warm subtropical climate, similar to TFS but with more moisture due to the island's eastern exposure. Gran Canaria is nicknamed the "Continent in Miniature." The north is wetter and cooler; the south is sunnier and drier. The airport sits on the east coast. Temperatures year-round are 18–27°C with modest seasonal variation.

The main disruption risk is the Calima, a hot dusty wind from the Sahara that reduces visibility. It occurs primarily in late January–February and July–August. The airport handles this well, but diversions to Tenerife North occasionally happen during severe events.
