What to do on holiday in Tenerife?
We can’t deny that Tenerife is trendy, as confirmed by its millions of visitors. Most tourism is concentrated during the summer season, although the good weather accompanies this island all year round. Many people choose Tenerife holiday deals thinking only of enjoying the sun and the beach, but the island also offers a wide range of activities.
When you start exploring its corners, you’ll realise that your holidays are too short to fully experience all the charm the island has to offer. We recommend staying at least two weeks to enjoy Tenerife to its fullest. With this amount of time, you’ll have the opportunity to discover hiking trails, charming villages, natural pools, and more.
La Orotava
La Orotava is a charming town in the Canary Islands and a must-visit during your holiday in Tenerife. Its cobbled streets will welcome you and lead you to impressive viewpoints of the Atlantic Ocean. The balconies of the houses, with typical Canarian woodwork, allow for a charming stroll through the Old Town.
Some locals consider Orotava to be the most beautiful town in Tenerife, and when you visit, you’ll see that they are not wrong.
Santa Cruz de Tenerife
Santa Cruz de Tenerife is the capital of the island and the largest city in the Canary Islands. We recommend strolling through the streets of the city centre and along the Rambla, as well as spending a morning exploring the Nuestra Señora de África market (where you can find the best Canarian products).
Don’t forget to visit Plaza de España, the Church of the Immaculate Conception, and the modern Adán Martín Auditorium.
El Barranco del Infierno
El Barranco del Infierno is an impressive geological landscape located in the municipality of Adeje. In this area, you can take a marked trail that crosses deep rock canyons, waterfalls, caves, and other spaces where the Guanches once lived.
The trail covers a distance of 6.5 kilometres round trip, where you can appreciate different types of flora and fauna, enjoy wonderful views, and even take a dip in the Cadeiro.
The Millennium Drago Tree
If you’re a fan of curious visits, you’re going to love the Millennium Drago Tree. The Drago tree is the most characteristic tree on the island but the one in question is not just any tree; it is a specimen that is at least 800 years old and is believed to be the oldest in the world.
It is located in the town of Icod de los Vinos, measures 18 metres in height, and its trunk has a circumference of over 20 metres.
Puerto de la Cruz
Puerto de la Cruz is one of the main tourist destinations on the island and is popular for its affordable accommodation and excellent location. Besides being a city worth visiting, it is also close to tourist spots like Los Lagos Martiánez – beautiful pools designed by César Manrique, an artist from Lanzarote.
Puerto de la Cruz is a city with many offerings for tourists, including gardens, restaurants, terraces, entertainment areas, and more.
Teide National Park
When you decide to go on holiday to Tenerife, the first thing that comes to mind is Teide. Considered to be a surrealist mountain, Teide is a volcano with whimsical shapes formed by lava during its last eruption. 3,718 metres above sea level, Teide is the highest mountain in Spain and the third largest volcano in the world.
You can see Teide from virtually anywhere on the island, and it’s a great place to fully connect with nature during your vacation. Teide National Park was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2007 and covers 19,000 hectares, highlighting not only Teide but also Montaña Blanca and Pico Viejo.
To reach the summit, you’ll need to take a cable car from the volcano’s base, which is a unique experience. Once there, you can continue climbing to the peak only if you have a special permit from the park. The experience is quite challenging, so it’s only recommended for professional hikers.
Playa de las Teresitas
Playa de las Teresitas is a beach with yellow sand that comes from the Sahara Desert and is considered one of the most beautiful beaches in northern Tenerife. Some say that it is a piece of the Caribbean brought to the Canary Islands. It is located just a few kilometres from Santa Cruz de Tenerife, the capital of the island, and for that reason, it is almost always crowded with tourists.You won’t lack anything on this beach, as it offers services such as parking, beach bars, sunbed and umbrella rentals, and more. Despite being a popular beach, it is worth visiting and enjoying a refreshing swim, especially on hot days.
Punta de Teno
Punta de Teno is the westernmost point of the island of Tenerife, a place that is difficult to access by road. But we assure you that your effort will be worth it. To reach this small peninsula, you will have to zigzag through spectacular rock cliffs, all while enjoying dream-like views.
The natural pools of Garachico
The natural pools of Garachico were formed by the eruption of Mount Teide burying the area in volcanic rock. These pools are equipped with steps, walkways, bridges, diving spots, and more, so you can have an excellent day with your family.
North Tenerife or South Tenerife?
Once you have chosen among the best holiday deals in Tenerife, we recommend renting a car to move freely around the island, as public transportation is not very efficient. Even if you plan to explore the entire island, it’s good to choose the area where you want to stay, depending on what you’re looking for.
North Tenerife and South Tenerife are two completely different areas, ideal for different types of visitors. We present the zone you should choose, depending on what you have in mind for your days off.
The Beaches
The best beaches in Tenerife are located in the south of the island. That’s where you’ll find Costa Adeje, Playa de las Américas, Los Cristianos, La Arena, and more. However, in the north, you’ll also find beautiful beaches with volcanic sand, mainly in Puerto de la Cruz.
The Climate
The south of Tenerife is the area of the island where it’s hottest throughout the year, and the climate is sunny almost every day of the year.
Accommodation
If you’re looking for sun, beaches, and a lively atmosphere, we recommend staying in South Tenerife. This is where most beachfront resorts and luxurious hotels on the island are located.
On the other hand, if you’re looking for a more rural environment, we suggest looking for offers in North Tenerife. It’s also a good choice if you have limited time to explore the island and want to reach any point quickly.
Travelling with kids
If you’re planning your family holiday in Tenerife, it’s advisable to stay in the south of the island. Here, you’ll find the safest beaches for young children and plenty of activities to keep them entertained.
