What is the weather like in February in Tenerife?

In the archipelago in Atlantic Ocean the island is located Tenerife– an eternal shelter, as many travelers call it.

Exactly year-round soft and special natural conditions helped the island gain fame among tourists from all over the world.

No less tourists are attracted by the beauty of natural volcanic beaches with black sand, luxurious nature, evergreen forests and amazing plants.

February holiday

Tenerife is an excellent place for a quiet and romantic holiday for those who are tired of the endless bustle of the big city.

Advantages

If purpose of rest— the desire to take a break from the noise and enjoy nature, without beach and active recreation, the northern cities of the island are best suited.

If you like active recreation and swimming in the ocean, you love noisy discos and all kinds of entertainment, then go to the south of Tenerife.

Unchanged for both parts of the island pros will be:

• Chance see the legendary Carnival, taking place in Tenerife in February;
• Great opportunity to practice water sports, including surfing;
• An ideal month to relax for those who doesn't like heat;
• Reduced tourist flow– the opportunity to visit museums and islands without huge queues.

How to dress?

If you are planning exclusively beach holiday in the southern resorts of the island, light dresses, swimsuits, shorts and T-shirts. For an evening walk and dinner at fresh air women will need a cardigan, and men a light sweater or cardigan. For shoes, it is better to take ballet flats, open shoes or light boots. Hats and sunglasses will come in handy.

For travel in the north or in the mountains, take a warm windproof jacket or windbreaker, warm pants or jeans. We recommend bringing sneakers or other closed shoes with you. For an excursion to the top, a warm tracksuit is suitable.

Some restaurants on the island have dress code, so you will need clothing with closed sleeves, trousers or a dress and closed shoes.

Don’t forget documents, cash, medicines and the necessary equipment - camera and phone. Almost every hotel and restaurant on the island has a wireless network WI-FI.

Download the necessary maps to your phone or tablet in advance so as not to take advantage of unfavorable international traffic. By the way, it is more convenient and profitable to order tickets for excursions and museums via the Internet.

What to do on the island this month?

At any time of the year, including February, Tenerife has plenty of entertainment to suit every taste.

Beach holiday

A comfortable February on the beaches of the island is only possible in the south. Air and water temperatures are conducive to spending time on the ocean, but it all depends on nature of the current, which dominates the ocean at this time.

Any slight wind can spoil the swimming experience if the air temperature is below average.

However, many tourists are not at all afraid of the wind; there are many vacationers on the beaches in February.

Excursions

The excursion program of Tenerife is rich on both sides of the mountain range. Dedicate winter trip inspection of the best attractions islands.

For supporters of an active lifestyle, Spain offers all kinds of aquatic species sports– from fishing and boat tours to deep-sea scuba diving, as well as diving and surfing.

The carnival lasts about two weeks. All the time, the carnival is accompanied by dancing and fiery parties in every corner of the island.

The question arose about winter vacation: where to go when you want sun and warmth? There is an opportunity to go only for a week. Egypt, Thailand - disappears immediately. We thought about Tenerife. But is it worth it? I’m very worried about the weather, because I don’t want to “throw away” a lot of money for the dubious happiness of 20 degrees in the air and even less in the ocean (judging by the data on the Internet)! In addition, the first and last days, as I understand it, are “flight” days, that is, there are 5 days left for vacation. Knowledgeable people Please advise whether this trip is worth it.

This February we were in Tenerife. We couldn't swim. My husband took the plunge once; my child and I didn’t dare at all.
IMHO, February in Tenerife is not a month for swimming.
The weather was wonderful, 22-24 degrees. Just right for trips, excursions and entertainment.
But not for beach holiday. We lay on the beach a couple of times. There was a terrible wind on Medano, the only closed area was occupied by nudists, I didn’t dare stay there with my child.

I agree with Elsa. The air will be comfortable, but the water in the ocean will be icy. It depends on what you want to get from your vacation. If a beach holiday is important, maybe it’s better to choose something else? Despite the fact that there is only a week, the flight is still long. The island is very beautiful, but February is not best time to visit him. If you ignore the beach and rent a car, you will get a lot of interesting impressions. Have you looked at options like Oman or Jordan?

I think a week is not enough. You correctly calculated that the day of arrival and the day of departure will take almost two days away from this week. And it’s hard to fly for 7 hours. There may be a little acclimatization, after all, the time difference is 3 hours. For example, for the first two days I felt the urge to go to bed early.
It’s better to choose 2 weeks from May to October and fly off for a complete vacation. Take a swim, see the extraordinary nature, zoos. I think you'll have more fun than a week-long "foray"

Allah, February is the best cold mc year, but that doesn’t mean it’s cold there. By Russian standards, it’s generally summer. We were there at the very beginning of March, the air was very comfortable and we swam in the ocean every day, although we’re from the Urals, our thermoregulation is different.

Thank you all very much for your answers. In principle, I thought that February and the week are concepts that do not relate to Tenerife!) Of course, I want to combine everything: swim in the ocean and sunbathe a little and drive around the island! But apparently not this time!)

Quote:
Likewise.

I believe that the parameters set for a beach holiday are incompatible: February and a short flight. It is unlikely that you will find a country this month that is 3-4 hours away and has comfortable weather for swimming and sunbathing. We were in Tenerife in March of this year, +25 during the day and the water was about +20. We swam and sunbathed, and if you choose good hotel, that is, a heated pool is required. A week was also enough for us for the first time, it turned out 6 full days, the day of arrival was practically lost, and on the day of departure we were picked up from the hotel at 21.00. So either change your vacation time or your expectations from your vacation.

A week is really very short, but I don’t quite agree about swimming. Lovers of Egyptian water will never climb into +23-24, it’s too cold for them. For me, there is no strong difference between +20 and +23. On the other hand, if you are active, don’t try to sleep until lunch, sit in a hotel and have a license, then you can do a lot in 6 days. February is also interesting because almost every year at this time Iberia has very good prices. If you take an apartment in Tenerife, the trip will be very cheap, perhaps cheaper than Egypt

And we were 2 years ago in February-early March, the weather was wonderful, and we drove, swam and sunbathed. For summer months There are other countries where you definitely can’t go in February. But if the required minimum water temperature is +23+24, I think it’s not worth flying.
But on the other hand, there is a carnival at this time in Tenerife.
Alejandra, I have a question for you along the way:
if I see good price from Iberia, then I buy on their website, like from other a\k?

The fact is that this summer we went to mainland Spain in early June. And we were, to put it mildly, unlucky with the weather: the air temperature did not rise above 22 in 2 weeks, there was not a single day without rain, I’m not talking about swimming at all. At that time in Greece and Turkey it was 30!) We arrived from vacation frozen, and I had bronchitis!) We traveled everywhere we could, but we never got the sea as such. Therefore, now we would like to compensate for what we didn’t buy in the summer!) And not find ourselves in the situation a second time, as in the situation in the summer. But, apparently, the only prospect is Egypt, where we will not go on principle (because we have bad memories of our holiday there). In general, we will have to postpone the sea until the summer!

Our trip to Tenerife in February happened by chance. I won airline tickets in a competition and had to use them. How I managed this, I wrote. The choice of places to stay was limited by the airline's flight map. She didn’t fly to the Canary Islands, but she could fly to Barcelona. And low-cost airlines already fly from there. I looked through the reviews of tourists and realized that the weather there practically does not change all year round. I just wanted to get from Moscow harsh winter V warm summer. How to spend your holiday on the island this month, read in this article.

One of our first forays outside the village was trekking along natural park, where the yellow mountain is located. We found it by chance while walking along the sea. Such a walk is an opportunity to get acquainted with the nature of the Canaries and be away from people. We walked to the neighboring resort. In addition to the Yellow Mountain, there is another nature reserve very close - Red Mountain, located at the resort. We were only able to examine the village itself, which also has its own flavor.

If you want a more active life, you need to visit the main resorts of the southern part of the coast -, s and. One day we did just that. We boarded the bus and after 15-20 minutes we found ourselves in a completely different world. Most tourists choose them for their vacation. There are many restaurants, cafes, bars, shops and... nightlife. Young people will probably find it more interesting here. Later we visited them more than once and even walked the entire coast along all the beaches from Los Cristianos to Adeje. If you don’t have a car, then it’s most convenient to get to other attractions of the island from here. We also bought several excursions at one of the excursion bureaus. Not all agencies sell excursions in Russian, you’ll have to search. The most common languages ​​are European.

The first excursion we went on was. If you are without a car and want to general outline to see several iconic places, this excursion will enrich your knowledge of the island. We were lucky with the guide. She spoke interestingly and informatively. By bus we definitely wouldn’t have visited that much in one day. We drove from south to north and saw how the climate and vegetation changed. The north is more green, and the south is more deserted. It is surprising that the distance between north and south is very small. We looked at the Los Gigantes cliffs, visited the small mountain village of Masca, where the famous gorge of the same name begins, then went to the natural pools of Garachico. After that, our route took us to Icod de los Vinos, where we visited the wine museum and got acquainted with the dragon tree. From the entertainment part in our route there was.

The main attraction of the island is. It’s simply impossible not to visit it during your trip. It's not easy to get there by bus, so we also took a tour there. It took half a day, and on that day we managed to visit the volcano and swim in the sea. Teide has stunning scenery. The feeling that you are on another planet.

One of our days was dedicated to an entertainment event. We went to . It has many slides and water attractions. I think both children and adults will like it. Since February is not high season in Tenerife, there were not so many people. We were lucky and didn't have to stand in line. The weather is quite comfortable for visiting the water park.

And our last excursion was to the neighboring one. In general terms, we managed to get to know him. It doesn't look like Tenerife at all. No less memorable was sailing on a huge ferry.

This is not all that you can see in Tenerife. The island is rich and natural objects and amusement parks. Each tourist can choose entertainment to his liking.

Although I don’t write in detail about the beaches here, we swam almost every day. Some days it was the ocean, some days it was a swimming pool. allows swimming, but not at all resorts on the island.

As you can see, a trip to Tenerife in February can be bright and eventful. The main thing is to plan your route correctly and determine what you want to see. And my review of a holiday in Tenerife is just one of the possibilities for organizing a trip.
