It's no surprise that Tenerife, the largest and most popular of the volcanic Canary Islands, has been attracting visitors for more than 50 years. Lying only 160 miles from the coast of Africa, yet part of Spain, the island offers a fabulous year round sub tropical climate. Tenerife is one of the most complete destinations anywhere in the world, with 3,000 hours of light to enjoy its sun soaked beaches, pine forests, lava covered luna landscapes and unspoiled villages.

Nearly half of the islands natural spaces are protected, and Tenerife truly has something for everyone, both on land and sea. From the warm south coast with its beaches and banana plantations, through the world heritage site of the Teide National Park. Picturesque villages and hamlets, historical centres, breath taking natural spaces, and beautiful gardens and parks, there is plenty to explore.

Enjoying seaside life is very easy in Tenerife, with whale and dolphin watching an absolute must, there are many diving centres, marinas and long promenades to take a stroll or enjoy a drink, and most of the seafront areas offer an array of water sports on the south coast.
Tenerife also has a playful side, with plenty of leisure parks, golf courses, and a number of busy resorts offering lively nightlife, from live music bars, to chic nightclubs, cafes and casinos. Restaurants are plentiful; whether you prefer to experience the local cuisine or take a cosmopolitan approach you can find a restaurant from almost any continent.
Whether you are looking to relax, explore, or enjoy activities, the only difficulty you might find is fitting it all in, which is why many people return, at any time of the year.
