Where Should I go: Canary Islands or Campania?

Canary Islands

The Canary Islands are a territory of Spain located off the northwest coast of Africa. Made up of rugged volcanic islands, the archipelago is known for its black and white sand beaches with great surf as well as opportunities for hiking, biking, snorkeling, and scuba amongst other activities.

Campania

Campania is the southwestern region of Italy encompassing the Amalfi coast, Naples, Salerno, Pompeii, and many more of the most popular destinations in Italy. A rugged and mountainous region, Campania is known for its beautiful yet expensive coastline with clear blue water, amazing food, and rich cultural history. Agriculture is one of the main industries in the region, and lemons grow in abundance. Limoncello and Crema di limone have become very popular and tasty drinks for locals and tourists alike. The Amalfi coast is perhaps the most highly regarded area for tourists, although other nearby areas host similar experiences for a much lower cost. The coastline around Naples, for example, tends to be cheaper. The islands of Capri and Ischia offer unique and stunning resort-like atmospheres with an Italian feel, but for a hefty price. Outside of Naples, visitors can find Pompeii and Herculaneum, ancient archeological sites made famous by their "frozen in time" remains from the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 A.D.
