Separated by 85 km (between Gando and Jandía), the islands are in good conditions to be seen from one to the other. The distance between the summits (120 km) is also sufficiently low to allow their observation.

From Fuerteventura summit, a great part of Gran Canaria can be seen.

Given that most of the pictures that show Gran Canaria also show Tenerife, the list is the same as Tenerife seen from Fuerteventura

My longest range observation ever! In this picture, taken today during sunset from a 670m tall mountain on Fuerteventura, you can see Gran Canaria and even Tenerife (250+ km away). This is incredible. pic.twitter.com/3Dlry0wgti
