Sea and mountains, culture and relaxation, tradition and trendy spots… There are so many things to do and see in Tenerife that you'll want to come back again and again.
Nature lovers will find the island a perfect destination to unwind. Its volcanic origin has created black sand beaches alongside golden ones, mountainous landscapes, and spectacular underwater scenery. Additionally, the archipelago's good climate throughout the year allows for sailing or water sports in any season. Mount Teide, standing at 3,718 meters high, offers not only enticing hiking routes but also the best stargazing views. The little ones can have fun learning about the local flora and fauna at Loro Parque, the largest amusement park in the Canary Islands, with activities, restaurants, and rest areas for an unforgettable day.
In the evening, the shops on the Golden Mile are great for picking up a souvenir before enjoying a live show or savoring traditional Guanche cuisine, famous for the quality of its ingredients and the care put into its preparation. Among the most popular dishes are mojo canario and the famous papas arrugadas.
If you want to delve deeper into Canarian culture, there's nothing like mingling with the locals in trendy bars or immersing yourself in the Tenerife Carnival, a festival true to tradition that attracts hundreds of people from around the world every year.
