What exciting new adventures will the new season bring? Here are some ideas for the perfect autumnal family getaway.

Many of us were sunbathing by the beach just a few days ago, but now the golden season has begun. Time really does fly!

However, we could do with a break from the heat. The cooler temperatures of autumn will allow you to enjoy a whole new selection of exciting plans near our hotels.

What to do in autumn

A wine tasting is always a good idea. The Canary Islands are famous for having over 80 grape types, and this time of the year is perfect for a wine route. La Geria is a spectacular volcanic sand vineyard in Lanzarote, where piles of rocks protect the grapes from the aggressive winds.

Andalusia has some of the best hiking routes in the country, such as El Caminito del Rey. The view from the steep pass El Desfiladero de los Gaitanes will leave you breathless.

Fun activities for children

Autumn is a great season to enjoy as a family. Most cities offer a wide range of activities for children. Cádiz is definitely worth a visit for this reason.

However, if your children are more the exploring type, we recommend visiting the fantastic natural parks in the region of Almería.

Where to stay

All Elba Hotels are open and buzzing as usual after the summer. The thalassotherapy centres in Gran Hotel Elba Estepona, Elba Costa Ballena and Elba Lanzarote have their state-of-the-art massage circuits ready to help you welcome the new season on the right foot.
