Highlights

Tenerife, the "island of eternal spring" is the largest of Spain's Canary Islands. Set in the Atlantic Ocean, it enjoys a mild climate during the fall and winter with temperatures around 22° C, so the island consequently welcomes a steady flow of tourists.

Tenerife's unique volcanic beaches are of beautiful dark sand, and it has a surprisingly diverse landscape with mountains, national parks, zoos and ancient pyramids to visit. Many of the island's natural beauties are protected by UNESCO.

Tenerife is also renowned for its famous Carnival celebrations (February - March), when the island's main squares and roads fill up with parties, parades, samba shows and live music.
