Beach clean-ups, cultural exchanges, community support, activities, and much more.... Find out more about us!

- Who we are What for?

Project’îles is an association under the law of 1901, and a partner of Crazy-Canary.com. I invite you to discover it in the video below: 

- How does the Project'iles association work?

Our primary aim is to protect the Canary archipelago in every possible way.
But we also want your efforts to be rewarded in some way, so we’ve thought about different categories of member.
Find out more in the following video:

Join us ! We need you.

We are here primarily to:

-Offer free activities to locals who don't have enough income to enjoy their islands as we do.
Crazy Canary undertakes not to collect any commission from partner companies, and the Project'îles association is responsible for paying the service provider.

Carry out beach clean-ups, and advance research into microplastics . Visit "Our agenda" to find out about our upcoming events.

-To encourage intercultural exchanges, we try to organize regular get-togethers in public places to chat, learn Spanish and talk about mass tourism.
From time to time, we also organize our own beach volleyball, diving and sailing sessions, all thanks to our partners. See "Our agenda" for more information.

The heart of the association is located on the island of Gran Canaria, where we carry out the majority of our actions, followed by Lanzarote and Fuerteventura.

We're fully prepared to expand to the other islands when the time comes.

Membership is €10 per person per year.
