Tenerife arguably has the most going on, it can offer a totally different experience depending on which part of the island you choose as the base for your holiday. In north you can get up close and personal with nature, while the south is known as the land of sun, sea and sand.
When to Go?
The glorious weather in Tenerife makes it the perfect holiday destination 365 days of the year. The Canary Islands boasts a subtropical climate, which makes them an appealing holiday destination at any time.
In December and January you still can enjoy magnificent weather, days on the beach, a swim in the ocean and lovely blue skies. Compared to many other European destinations, Tenerife winters are extremely mild, one of the factors that makes it a very alluring destination for holidaymakers keen to escape the colder climates of home. May, June and July are good months to travel, with the weather really getting hotter. A lovely cool sea breeze makes even very hot summer days refreshing.
