The island of Tenerife is dominated by Spain's highest summit, the famous Pico Teide at 3,718 metres, the 3rd highest volcano in the world and a natural monument that gives its name to one of the Canary Islands' four National Parks.
Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this volcanic jewel is home to many endemic species of Canarian flora and fauna, as well as important archaeological sites dating back to the first inhabitants of the Canaries, the Guanches.
Its anticyclonic climate, stable and mild throughout the year is due, among other things, to the fact that the Canary Islands lie at the start of the trade winds, which protect them from virtually all low-pressure areas.
The Canaries' strategic location between the Old and New Worlds has made it a crossroads of civilisations, giving it a rich History and Culture, as well as a cuisine full of contrasts.
If you're looking for a relaxing holiday away from mass tourism, this is the place for you.
