Canary Islands winter getaway

November 12, 2020

Spanish Canary Islands, the hottest winter getaway in the EU with January temperatures as high as 30°C, is making a major push towards attracting remote workers. The archipelago has 90 coworking spaces, with Las Palmas de Gran Canaria being the ideal freelancers’ hotspot:

“Firstly, apart from the obvious, which is the climate, there is the quality and rhythm of life, our open and hospitable character, distances are short, and we are relatively close to Europe. What’s more, we have one of the lowest costs of living in the EU and we even have fiscal instruments that are favorable to setting up a business,” says the regional tourism chief in El País article Not just a tourist destination: Why Spain’s Canary Islands are hoping to attract 30,000 remote workers.
