Island-specific motorhome and camper van insurance for expats living in or touring Gran Canaria.

Roads climb from sea level to over 1,900 metres at Pico de las Nieves, passing through multiple climate zones and terrain types in a single journey. For motorhome owners, this means encountering coastal heat, mountain fog, and everything in between—sometimes on the same day.
We arrange Generali insurance specifically structured for island-based motorhomes. Gran Canaria’s road network has been significantly upgraded, but the interior roads remain challenging for larger vehicles. Our policies cover all driving conditions on the island, and we understand the specific logistics of insuring a vehicle that may never leave Gran Canaria.
Gran Canaria’s roads range from modern motorways around Las Palmas and the southern resorts to narrow mountain tracks through the central highlands. The GC-1 and GC-2 coastal motorways handle large vehicles easily, but interior roads like the GC-60 to Tejeda involve sharp switchbacks and steep gradients that demand caution in a motorhome. Volcanic rock faces can shed debris after heavy rain, adding a hazard not found on mainland routes.
The island’s subtropical climate means rust and corrosion are less of a concern than UV damage. Strong year-round sunshine degrades rubber seals, awnings, and paintwork faster than on the mainland. Wind exposure—particularly the calima dust storms from the Sahara—can also affect exterior surfaces and air filtration systems. Comprehensive cover that includes weather-related damage is particularly relevant on the island.
