Abstract: In the last 20 years the Canary Islands fishing fleet has gone from the privileged position of enjoying abundant catches in the old "Canary Islands-Saharan" fishing grounds to the precarious situation in which it currently finds itself. This paper aims to determine what the future holds for The Canaries fishing sector. Hence, fishing rights and policies are analysed and the special aids received from the EC are compared with those applied in other similar ultraperipheric regions. The adoption of a more interventionist role by the Canary Islands administration may solve at least part of the problem faced by this sector.
