Although the sugar-cube chalets, sunshine and sangria give the islands Spanish Mediterranean holiday vibes, their location off the coast of West Africa means the isles bask in Saharan sunshine long after autumn arrives in Europe.

Beach purists dreaming of soft white sand and sapphire seas can find their idyll in Fuerteventura, while Saharan sand migrating on the wind has made Gran Canaria popular with beach lovers, who flock to the silky dunes of Maspalomas.

Families searching for sunny climes can fly south to Gran Canaria with TUI and stay for 7 days from £662pp this half term, with the beautiful beaches of Maspalomas just a stone’s throw away.

Meanwhile, package deals to the peaceful Fuerteventura resort of Caleta de Fuste, also known as Costa Caleta, are available from £816pp with TUI, where you can find low-rise family resorts and a long curve of sandy sun-baked beach.

Equally, Lanzarote has some great seaside resorts including peaceful Playa Blanca and lively Puerto del Carmen where you can find some great holiday deals this autumn.

Family package deals to Puerto del Carmen can be snapped up with EasyJet Holidays from £949pp, while holidays on the nearby golden bay of Matagorda are from £821pp with TUI.

Whether you want to be close to top-notch family facilities in Lanzarote and Tenerife, or discover the more peaceful dune-backed beaches of Fuerteventura or Gran Canaria, there’s a Canary island with a half term package deal to suit you.

And double-jabbed passengers travelling from October no longer have to take pre-departure tests or PCR tests on day 2 of their return to the UK, making travel simpler and cheaper for everyone.
