Public healthcare: EU citizens, like Italians, have free access to public healthcare with the European Health Card (TSE) or, for residents, with the Social Security Card (obtained with NIE). The public system covers general visits, emergencies, surgery, and pediatric care. Main hospitals include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Gran Canaria University Hospital Doctor Negr\u00edn (Las Palmas): Referral center for advanced surgery and pediatrics, with 600 beds.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nuestra Se\u00f1ora de Candelaria University Hospital (Tenerife): Specializing in oncology and cardiology, with pediatric departments.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hospital General de Fuerteventura: Full services, but smaller, ideal for local emergencies.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hospital Insular de Lanzarote: Covers basic and specialist care, with short waiting times.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Private healthcare<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many expats choose private insurance (e.g., Sanitas, Mapfre) for quick specialist visits (\u20ac20-50\/month, copay \u20ac5-10\/visit).

For this reason, we can confirm that it is a strong point of living in the Canary Islands.

But is it really worth moving? Here are the main pros and cons to consider:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pros of living in the Canary Islands as a retiree<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Reduced taxation<\/strong>Private pensioners pay approximately 15% in taxes on their pension (in Italy between 23% and 43%), after registering with AIRE and obtaining the NIE.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ideal climate all year round<\/strong>: Mild temperatures between 18\u00b0C and 30\u00b0C promote physical well-being and reduce heating costs (electricity \u20ac50-100\/month). See the <a href=\"https:\/\/todacanarias.it\/en\/canary-islands\/weather\/\">weather forecast for the Canary Islands<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Lower cost of living<\/strong>A retired couple can live on \u20ac1,700-2,500 a month, including rent (\u20ac800-1,100 in places like Puerto de la Cruz).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Accessible healthcare<\/strong>Free public healthcare for EU residents and affordable private insurance (\u20ac20-50\/month).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Italian community present<\/strong>Areas such as Los Cristianos and Costa Adeje are home to numerous Italian retirees, with events, associations and typical restaurants.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Against living in the Canary Islands as a pensioner<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Complex bureaucracy<\/strong>Tax relief can take up to 24 months, with the risk of temporary double taxation (subsequently refundable).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Public pensioners excluded<\/strong>Ex-INPDAP pensions remain taxed in Italy, with no possibility of tax relief.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Loss of some benefits<\/strong>Private pensioners lose social and family benefits linked to Italian residency.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Possible isolation<\/strong>The smaller islands (e.g. La Gomera) may be too quiet for those seeking an active social life.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before moving, consult a tax advisor who specializes in foreign pensions. An example? A retiree from Rome saved over \u20ac5,000 a year by moving to Gran Canaria, but had to wait 18 months for the tax exemption to be completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Living in a campervan in the Canary Islands: costs, benefits, and helpful tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/todacanarias.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Vivere-in-Camper-alle-Canarie-1024x536.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-119172\" srcset=\"https:\/\/todacanarias.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Vivere-in-Camper-alle-Canarie-1024x536.webp 1024w, https:\/\/todacanarias.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Vivere-in-Camper-alle-Canarie-300x157.webp 300w, https:\/\/todacanarias.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Vivere-in-Camper-alle-Canarie-768x402.webp 768w, https:\/\/todacanarias.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Vivere-in-Camper-alle-Canarie.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Camper parked on a beach in Gran Canaria<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Living in the Canary Islands in a camper <\/strong>it has become a <strong>increasingly popular solution<\/strong> For those who desire freedom, nature, and affordable costs.

Here&#039;s an overview of the main ones:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Tenerife<\/strong>The most cosmopolitan island, with Santa Cruz and Costa Adeje ideal for tourism jobs and modern services. Pros: job opportunities, quality schools and hospitals. Cons: some very crowded areas. Perfect for families and digital nomads.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Gran Canaria<\/strong>Las Palmas offers all the amenities of a big city, while Maspalomas is famous for its relaxation and mild climate. Pros: culture and social life. Cons: high rents (\u20ac900-1200 in tourist areas).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Fuerteventura<\/strong>Perfect destination for those who love water sports and pristine beaches, with Corralejo as a reference point. Pros: tranquility and nature. Cons: frequent winds.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Lanzarote<\/strong>Known for its volcanic landscapes and the art of C\u00e9sar Manrique, Puerto del Carmen is a favorite among expats. Pros: Unique environment. Cons: Fewer job opportunities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>La Palma, La Gomera, El Hierro<\/strong>Ideal islands for retirees or those seeking peace and contact with nature. Pros: silence and spectacular scenery. Cons: isolation and fewer services.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Areas like Los Cristianos (Tenerife) are highly popular with Italians thanks to their strong expat community and the presence of Italian-made restaurants and services.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A curious anecdote: the pensioner and the volcano<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2021, during the Cumbre Vieja eruption in La Palma, an Italian retiree, Luigi, organized a barbecue with his expat neighbors under a lava-red sky. Instead of worrying, Luigi shared stories of Milan, building connections with Spaniards and Brits. His story, which went viral on Italian Facebook groups, demonstrates the positive spirit of those who choose to live in the Canary Islands. You could experience a similar moment, discovering the resilience of the local community!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is it better to live in Portugal or the Canary Islands?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the most frequent questions we receive from Toda Canarias users on social media is this: is it better to move to the Canary Islands or Portugal? Both destinations are very popular with Italians, but they have important differences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Living in Portugal<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Climate<\/strong>Mild, with temperatures between 10\u00b0C and 25\u00b0C.

However, VAT and general taxes (23%) are higher.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Work<\/strong>Average salaries \u20ac1,000-1,500, with more opportunities in tech and services in Lisbon.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pro<\/strong>Rich culture, proximity to Italy (3 hours flight), excellent healthcare, more opportunities for specialized jobs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Against<\/strong>Less stable climate, complex bureaucracy, high costs in large cities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Living in the Canary Islands<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Climate<\/strong>: Subtropical all year round (18-30\u00b0C), no heating required (electricity 0.15-0.20\u20ac\/kWh).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cost of living<\/strong>Rents: \u20ac900-1200 in tourist areas, houses: \u20ac180,000-220,000.
