The largest of Spain’s Canary Islands, Tenerife is a land of striking contrasts where volcanic landscapes, black-sand beaches and lush laurel forests meet year-round sunshine and a relaxed island rhythm. From its dramatic coastal cliffs to its charming historic towns, the island offers a blend of adventure, culture and pure seaside tranquillity. Whether you’re exploring the lunar landscapes of Mount Teide, wandering through colourful colonial streets or unwinding on golden shores in the south, Tenerife reveals a rich and varied personality that captivates visitors in every season.

Must-sees:

• Mount Teide National Park: A UNESCO-listed volcanic landscape dominated by Mount Teide, Spain’s highest peak.
• La Laguna: A beautifully preserved colonial town with pastel façades and cobbled streets.
• Anaga Rural Park: A lush, mountainous region filled with laurel forests, hiking trails and breathtaking viewpoints.
• Los Gigantes: Dramatic sea cliffs rising hundreds of metres above the Atlantic.
• Santa Cruz de Tenerife: A vibrant capital known for its architecture, cultural venues and relaxed waterfront.

Culinary culture:

The gastronomy of Tenerife reflects the bounty of the Atlantic and the island’s volcanic soil. Enjoy traditional dishes such as papas arrugadas with mojo sauces, grilled octopus, or fresh fish served with gofio. Local cheeses and tropical fruits add colour to the table, while wines from the Valle de La Orotava or Tacoronte-Acentejo vineyards showcase the island’s rich winemaking heritage. From ocean-view restaurants to family-run guachinches, dining in Tenerife is a sensory delight.

Dive deeper:

Beyond its well-known resorts, Tenerife rewards slow exploration. Discover hidden natural pools along the El Pris or Bajamar coastlines, visit banana plantations to learn about the island’s agricultural traditions, or hike lesser-known paths through volcanic craters and ancient forests. For a cultural immersion, wander the historic streets of La Orotava, explore contemporary art in Santa Cruz, or join locals in lively seaside villages where fishing boats sway gently in the harbour.

Good to know:

Tenerife has two airports — Tenerife North Airport near La Laguna and Tenerife South Airport near Costa Adeje — offering easy access to all parts of the island. Thanks to its subtropical climate, the island enjoys pleasant temperatures year-round, with ideal conditions for hiking from October to May. The local currency is the euro (€).
