Discover Mount Teide

Experience the local cuisine

One of the highlights of any trip to this Spanish island is sure to be the local food and drink. Among the most typical regional recipes are Caldereta and Sancocho Canario, salted fish in a “mojo” sauce. Tenerife also produces its own distinctive wines, including the sweet Malvasia dessert wine.

Browse the botanical gardens

Tenerife has a huge variety of flora and fauna. In your leisure time, you should consider a trip to the botanical gardens, which have a large range of tropical and subtropical trees, plants and flowers.

Relax on the picturesque beaches

The island is home to an impressive selection of both sand and shingle beaches along its 213 miles of coastline. One of the most unique beaches in the area of Puerto de la Cruz is Playa Jardin which also has a colourful botanic garden to go along with the natural palm trees and volcanic sand.

Explore Tenerife on foot

With over 200 miles of coastline and a rugged volcanic landscape just waiting to be explored, you can enjoy a casual coastal walk or a gruelling mountain hike…either way you’ll be bowled over by the natural landscape and stunning views on offer here.

Get Lost in La Laguna

San Cristóbal de La Laguna (commonly known as La Laguna) is a UNESCO World Heritage colonial city in Tenerife. It’s well worth spending an afternoon exploring the impressive cathedral and the old colonial architecture of the historic city centre
