No, only peninsula maps, Spain (without islands) and Portugal.

Why would you need it the Gran Caaria island is so small?

Going by that map, it only has about 6 roads, even I couldn't get lost
there!

Your ability to imagine the rabbit warren of side streets and one-way
systems in Las Palmas is about as poor as your ability to count to six :-)

I used to live there and I think that I have been on about every road
there. I am thinking of going back there, there is some spectacualrly
beautiful scenary, even though the island has become over populated.

I'm sure I've seen TomTom maps which include the Canaries. I emailed TomTom
about them some time ago on that subject and there were none at that time
BUT I seem to remember seeing copies available on some other newsgroups
which definitely stated that the Canaries were included.

Regards,

Colin

That's not the case with my TomTom Navigator 5 maps. They include all
of Spain, including the Balearics and the Canary Islands. Also
Portugal, Andorra and Gibraltar

My TomTom Go 300 bought in the "El corte Ingles" last year (in June)
came with Spain-Portugal an Canary Islands maps in the Sd memory card (i
don´t use it yet)...

Great to know...I know I've seen this question before... Hopefully
Fred can contact TomTom and find out how to get the maps for himself.
And you'll be all set if you take your 300 off to the Canary Islands at
some point!

I can choose what maps i want to use:Spain with portugal etc and on the
other hand,Canary Islands.When i said "i don´t use it yet" i mean that i
don't use the Canary Islands maps because i dont live there,i live in
the peninsula and,of course,i use my TomTom here,but my SD card has both...

Thanks for the explanation...I just meant that hopefully you could use
the Canary Islands maps if you went there on vacation with your GO 300!
:) I'm all about vacations and the opportunity to use new maps...
