Tenerife is one of the most visited islands where tourists flock in anticipation of a wonderful vacation. The island attracts visitors year-round with its clear blue skies, comfortable temperatures, and sunny beaches. There are many beaches in Tenerife, and everyone can choose according to their taste. I have prepared a selection of my favorite beaches for you.
Which part of Tenerife is suitable for a beach holiday? It's definitely the southern part because the north has limited beach options. There are beaches with big waves and dangerous currents in the north. And besides, the water temperature is 1-2 degrees colder.
The blackest of the Canary Islands, almost without forests. Known for its Martian landscapes, excellent surf spots, vineyards in black holes, and creative experiments of the great César Manrique.
A viewpoint with stunning panoramic views of the northern part of Fuerteventura island. Sit on the colorful lovers' bench. Admire the desert landscapes and the blue ocean.
This is not our first time visiting the island, so I will share some less touristy spots. For example, a wild beach, a short trek, and I'll tell you about a good hotel with a beach. Plan to spend 3-5 days on the island.
We decided to rent a car in Fuerteventura because driving there in our own car would be too far. Taking two ferries one way would take a whole day, so instead we flew for 40 minutes and rented a car at the airport for three days. I checked different rental companies and chose Pluscar because it's a cheap rental company.
I'm sharing with you an interesting route to the Teno lighthouse. Getting there by car isn't easy, as the road is closed from 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM. During this time, there's a bus that costs 1 euro.
The island of La Gomera is part of the Canary Archipelago and is surrounded by the waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Despite being quite small in area (142.8 square miles), La Gomera is regularly visited by many tourists from around the world.
La Palma is the greenest of the Canary Islands. For hiking enthusiasts, there are many incredibly beautiful and diverse trails, and for astronomy lovers, all the conditions are provided for stargazing.
El Hierro Island, though the smallest among the Canary Islands, is no less interesting: some go to see the end of the world, others to explore the unique and rich underwater landscapes, and some simply seek peace and solitude amid the enchanting nature.
Recently, my family and I decided to take a walk around the campus of the University of La Laguna. We were especially impressed by the Faculty of Fine Arts, Bellas Artes. It looks a lot like the new Apple office in Silicon Valley.
I've put together a small selection of good hotels in Gran Canaria. I tried to find the best value for money, leaning more towards the budget-friendly options.
I'm sharing my favorite places to eat in Puerto de la Cruz in Tenerife, will tell you what delicious dishes to order, and give useful tips.
The island of Fuerteventura is the oldest of the Canary Islands, located about a hundred kilometers off the African coast. This volcanic landmass in the Atlantic Ocean is the second largest of the Canary Islands, known for its extensive beaches and very low population density.
The clean sea, warm climate and interesting leisure activities attract many tourists to Tenerife every year. With children, you can visit nature reserves and zoos, watch whales and enjoy water slides. I've put together a list of affordable entertainment options for children in Tenerife.
