Tenerife insider information

Tenerife offers an enormous variety of white and volcanic sand beaches catering to families, sunbathers, surfers, nudists and the gay community. Ensure you find your ideal spot with our pick of Tenerife’s best beaches.

The Tenerife Carnival takes place in February mainly in Santa Cruz and is held in the weeks leading up to Lent. The party culminates in a parade through town when the ritual of the Burial of the Sardine takes place. For this tradition, a huge model sardine is carried through the streets followed by weeping mourners, and is eventually burned, marking the end of the festivities.

Take a flight to Tenerife and see the capital city of Santa Cruz boasts a lively, cosmopolitan atmosphere. This is one of Spain’s largest ports, with plenty of leafy parks, tax-free shopping, historical theatres, and both white and black sand beaches. The Mercado de Nuestra Señora de Africa is definitely worth a visit. This Artistic Historical Monument features merchant galleries of all varieties surrounding a central courtyard and clock tower.

Catch the cable car up to the top of El Teide, one of the world’s largest volcanoes and the highest point in the Atlantic Ocean. The peak of the volcano offers spectacular views over Tenerife and the rest of the archipelago. And the high altitude dictates the volcano is snow-capped for much of the winter -- a stark contrast to the warm sunny beaches below.
