The Canary Islands have become a popular digital nomad destination, especially since the pandemic started in early 2020.

Many digital nomads are unable to continue their lives in Asia and choose places like Tenerife and Gran Canaria as a new base while they're awaiting for SouthEast Asian countries like Vietnam, the Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia to open its borders to international tourists.

What are some of the pros and cons of living in the Canary Islands?

The weather is one of the biggest pros of living in this subtropical paradise. Day temperatures rarely follow below 18 degree C with a typical day temperature value of 18 - 32 degrees C. Night temperatures range from 15 - 23 degrees C.

The epic sceneries are another pro the islands have to offer. Enjoy the beautiful mountains, fresh air and variety of beaches!

Living in the Canary Islands is fairly inexpensive mainly due to the fact that many products such as fruits, vegetables, meat and fish are locally sourced. Many imported products are not subject to VAT.

Tons of digital nomads live on the islands offering a vibrant digital nomad community.

And the islands are perfectly safe - violent crime is extremely rare!

Now that we talked about the pros of living in the Canary Islands, let's have a look at some of the cons - the things people don't like so much.

From a geographic perspective, the Canary Islands are isolated from the rest of Europe. Just getting to mainland Spain takes 2-2.5 hours by plane and 5 hours to Germany.

The nightlife can be a con if you don't like parties and noise until the early morning hours.

Dating is another con of living here. Many people just spend a couple weeks or months on the islands making it difficult for someone living here to build a relationships. Dating a local is a bit challenging - you need to speak some Spanish to communicate with a Spaniard.

Tenerife is a tourist hotspot - expect crowded beaches throughout summer.

Apartments are not well insulated.
