Beach holidays Tenerife

For a beach holiday, Tenerife is an excellent choice – the friendly resorts are well placed to enjoy year round sunshine.

Head south if sunshine is your main priority. El Médano is one of the rare places in Tenerife with naturally blonde beaches. Here, the prevailing winds carry sand from the Sahara. You can sunbathe and swim on the palm-shaded lagoon of Lago de Martiánez or take a boat trip past the breathtaking cliffs of Los Gigantes. The exotic green oasis of the Jardín Botánico can offer shade during the long sunny days and Siam Park with its various water attractions is a favourite place for both adults and children.

In any Spanish destination, there’s always something festive happening. Tenerife is no exception, and though many events are designed with an eye towards the tourist trade, these are essentially local celebrations with a long history. Visitors are always welcome to join in.

Tenerife is the largest of the Canary Islands and has the widest range of holiday attractions, sports and nightlife. It also has the most varied and spectacular scenery, from lush banana plantations and pine forests to cinder deserts and cactus ravines – here you can travel from subtropical temperatures to the snowline in less than two hours.
