Tour - Spain II

exercise Ocean Sky – October 2025

Information

The Spanish Air Force will host the exercise Ocean Sky at Gando Air Base (Gran Canaria) in October 2025 again. The exercise normally attracts a large number of Spanish Air Force fighter aircraft from almost all units and several foreign participants. This year, the exercise is scheduled from 20 to 31 October 2025. They also often organise a spotters day, which is usually announced quite late.

Since the base offers very good photo opportunities, we plan to organise a tour to Gran Canaria. A great opportunity to combine nice weather and relaxation with great aviation photography.

Itinerary

The itinerary that follows is to be considered as preliminary.

On Sunday 26 October we will fly to the Gando and return to the Netherlands on Thursday 30 October 2025.

It is currently unknown whether a spotter’s day will be held, nor which week it will take place. We chose the second week of the exercise due to the exorbitant airline ticket prices in the first week (autumn holiday prices). Even without a spotter’s day, you can take unique photos at Gando at almost any time of day. We will be visiting these locations during our stay (on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday at least).
