Tenerife is the ideal place to take a holiday for north Europeans due to its close proximity to the northern Europe (only a four and a half hour flight from the UK). The island has great weather, numerous beaches, plenty of activities and pass times available. This article has been crafted with a view to giving anyone interested in holidaying in Tenerife some general information on the island.
Tenerife Weather
If you are a sun worshiper, then Tenerife may well be the place for you. The temperature rarely rises above 30º in the summer and below 16ºC in winter. The average yearly temperature is 21ºC and the south of the island receives an average of 6.9 hours of sunshine per day.
The climate here is subtropical and makes for the perfect holiday as even when it is cloudy it is still warm. The weather can vary from area to area due to the geological uniqueness of the island, the winds from Africa which warm the island and the cooling effect on the Atlantic. The South is considered to be warmer compared with the North and usually receives more sun, where as the North is a little cooler and receives more rain. During the winter months Mount Teide is often covered with snow, but skiing is not possible. For those who are planning on visiting Tenerife soon, there are numerous websites on the internet which deal with Weather Forecasts.
Tenerife Beaches
There are many beaches to choose from in Tenerife, and they can found all around the island. Many of the beaches are made up of naturally occurring volcanic black sand and a number of the beaches have white or yellow sand imported from Africa. You have a multitude of beaches to choose from, but one of the most exclusive beaches in the south is Del Duque beach. Del Duque beach sits at the front of one of the islands most exclusive hotels called the Bahia del Duque. This hotels attracts many well heeled guests which often include stars and celebrities.
Water sports can be found on many of the more popular beaches, so if you want you can have a go at jet skiing, kite boarding, wind surfing, bob diving, scuba diving, para-scending and speed boating. El Medano beach is a popular destination for wind surfers and kite boarders due to the constant strong winds blowing through this area.
All of the major beaches have lifeguards and first aid facilities. On some beaches you will even find disabled aids to help those who have a disability into the water.
Tenerife Restaurants
People who enjoy food often choose to return to Tenerife due the vast number of restaurants available. You can be sure that Tenerife will cater for what ever style of food you like, and usually prepared to a high standard. The main resort areas offer a bewildering and excellent choice of restaurants which serve all tastes and budgets.
As you know by now, Tenerife is an island, and as such you will find numerous seafood and fish food restaurants. There are many fishing villages in Tenerife, so the fish and seafood is normally fresh and often caught the same day it is prepared in the restaurants. You will find menu prices reasonable, and the standard of food high. The island plays hosts too many restaurants, so you can be sure that whatever your taste or budget, Tenerife will have many restaurants which suit you. I would not be lying if I told you I’ve gained a few pounds in the years I have been here and I blame it squarely on the food served in the various Tenerife restaurants!
Tenerife Pubs, Bars and Entertainment
Most people like the odd tipple and a bit of entertainment when they are holiday, and the south of Tenerife does not disappoint such people with its vast choice of drinking and entertainment venues. All of the main resort areas will have something to suit your tastes without a shadow of a doubt. There are numerous entertainment show bars which show live acts, theme bars, Irish pubs and Scottish and English bars. If you like a night out in club land, then you should visit the Veronicas and Starco areas. The larger clubs in these areas tend to book some of the UK’s top DJs. If you fancy a bit of jazz and blues, then that’s covered too. Generally speaking, whatever type of venue you are looking for, Tenerife will have something for you.

The Loro Parque is an ecological park driven by the goal of conservation, and as such worth a particular mention. This is not your run of the mill zoo, as the animals are well cared for and the park actively breeds animals in captivity and supports world wide conservation efforts. The park has a penguin attraction where you can see penguins kept in a large enclosure. The enclosure is specially built to mimic conditions the penguins would live in the wild by where the light and temperature are controlled. The enclosure even produces snow to help the penguins feel at home. Periodically the park adds new attractions, its latest being a killer whale show. The park has other shows which include sea lions, dolphins and parrots. The park is located in the North of the island, near to an area called Martiniez and is well worth a visit.
