Autumn shines on Gran Canaria

Autumn light wraps around Gran Canaria like a clear veil. The season has arrived on the island with customary calm. The winds have been tamed and the sky’s an intense blue, almost as if somebody painted it during summer whilst nobody was looking.

Las Canteras: a fish’s-eye view

I like to rest under the shelter of the Barra de Las Canteras. This natural reef slows the momentum of the Atlantic and provides quiet nights for fish like me. At dawn, when the sun's rays colour the surface shades of pink and purple, I begin to move around the bay and peck at algae with my parrot's beak. At this hour, the early birds of the human variety also begin to make their way into the sea, splashing and swimming as if they were fish themselves.
