 Each year, millions of people looking for a beautiful place to relax choose holidays in Tenerife. Tenerife is the largest of the Canary Islands, the Spanish archipelago, and is located off the coast of Northwest Africa. The Canaries are one of the most popular tourist spots in the world. Tenerife, with its magnificent extinct volcanoes and perfect beaches, is undeniably one of the best places to relax and enjoy a well-deserved holiday.

Each day you spend on Tenerife you will discover something new to see or do. Spend a day taking in the little towns all along the coast, shopping and enjoying tasty Spanish food. These villages are all set against a backdrop of the Cliffs of the Giants, Los Gigantes, the steep cliffs that rise from the ocean along a good portion of the Tenerife coastline.

Of course the beaches on Tenerife are some of the most beautiful in the world. The natural beaches consist of black sand from the volcanoes on the island, but many magnificent man-made beaches with sand pumped up from the seabed or brought in from the Sahara can be found. On the West coast is Playa de la Arena, which is in a picturesque cove and offers plenty of restaurants, bars, and typical beach services. For those who love to surf and wind surf, there is Playa del Roque on the east coast with beautiful ocean views and strong winds.

The best beaches are found on the south coast of the island and are located near the main resorts like Playa de las Americas and Los Cristianos. The main beach at Playa de las Americas is Playas de Troya and is Tenerifes most famous beach. It is located in the centre of town. It is a perfect place for water sports and also has a wide selection of restaurants.

Younger visitors on holidays in Tenerife often prefer staying in Playa de las Americas. Youll find very little that is typical of the Canaries here and it is where people from Northern Europe love to come to party. British pubs, pizza parlours, fish and chip restaurants, and fast food restaurants appeal to the younger crowd. Clubs are prolific here and the nights are brightly lit and noisy. Play de las Americas has plenty of self-catering or bed and breakfast style accommodations, like the Paraiso del Sol apartments.

Another popular resort area that offers plenty of activity is Los Cristianos. Not only does it have two beautiful beaches, but also from the harbour you can take fishing trips, relaxing pleasure cruises, glass bottom boat rides, and diving trips. This area attracts a bit of an older crowd and families but it still has its share of pubs and nightlife. Places like Castle Harbour Apartments offers self-catering accommodations perfect for the family.

Near Los Cristianos is the AquaPark Octopus, an ideal place to take the family. It offers dolphin shows, a childrens area, and a wide array of water rides, pools, slides, restaurants, and shops.

Enjoy a day away from the crowds of the beach and take a drive to Barranco del Inferno, Hells Gorge, and enjoy walking through the luxurious green ravine in the middle of the dry, southern end of Tenerife.

Every day of your Tenerife holiday can bring something new and different. No matter how you spend your days, youre sure to leave relaxed and rejuvenated.
