The highest point on the island - El Pico del Teide (volcanic peak of Teide) has a height of 3718m above sea level and is located almost at its center, and all of Tenerife is, in fact, a mountain. In 1706, a volcanic eruption destroyed several villages and the port city of Garachico. At the beginning of the 20th century, scientists recorded a weak eruption in western Teide.

Currently, the volcano is dormant, only sulfur vapors have been noticed in the crater area. Now the area surrounding the volcano and it itself form the main attraction of the island - National Park Teide.

Coconut and date palms, southern fruits, corn, bananas, and euphorbia grow on the coast of the island. At an altitude of 500 meters Evergreen laurel forests begin above sea level. Sometimes the famous Dragon Tree can be found there; the oldest specimens are believed to be several thousand years old.

The island's territory is divided into two parts by a mountain range, each with its own climate. North side Tenerife is humid and cooler, most of the precipitation falls there, and in winter even at the top of the volcano snowing. Thanks to the abundance of moisture, the vegetation in this part of the island is amazing.

South coast the islands are protected by mountain peaks from the cold air masses and winds, so it’s dry and sunny there, there’s almost no wind.

The diversity of Tenerife's nature is impressive even seasoned travelers- in one day you can visit a snow-capped mountain peak, tropical forest, soak in the waves of the Atlantic Ocean.

When to go and how to choose a place?

The choice depends on several factors:

1. Season- in winter it’s still a few degrees cooler, especially in the northern part of the island. If you want to sunbathe and bask in warm water, in winter you should prefer the southern part.

   Famous resorts in the south: Playa Paraiso, Playa de Las Americas, Los Cristianos, El Medano. On northern beaches comfortable temperature for swimming from August to October; San Andres, Puarto de la Cruz, Los Gigantes are the most famous of them.

For example, near the city of Villaflor at an altitude of 1400 meters there is a completely unearthly landscape created by nature itself from ash and hardened lava, it is called lunar (Paisaje Lunar).

   In the east of the island, in the town of Guimar, six mysterious stone pyramids rise. Nobody knows when and how they appeared and for what purpose they were erected. Eat different versions, but nothing is known exactly.

   In the center of the Orotava Valley is the ancient city of La Orotava, which dates back to before the first arrival of the Spaniards on the island. Aristocratic mansions, cobbled streets - everything breathes antiquity. Spain has declared the city center as its cultural heritage.



3. In principle, you can rent a car and drive around the island yourself at any convenient time. For lovers of a relaxing holiday there are a lot of different beaches in any part of the island: Benijo, La Tejita, Las Vistos, El Camison and many others. Entrance to them is free everywhere, you only pay for the use of a sunbed, umbrella, toilet and other optional services, for example, water attractions and entertainment.
4. It’s worth thinking about in advance what you want more - if noisy nightlife, the largest resort of Las Americas is suitable. Discos, restaurants and all kinds of cafes, where life does not stop for a minute - this resort is often chosen by young people.
