Tenerife is the largest of the seven Canary Islands off the north-west coast of Africa and attracts roughly 3.5 million tourists every year. The island is serviced by two airports, Los Rodeos in the north and Reina Sofia Airport in the south. The former mainly deals with domestic flights while the later is where the majority of international flights will land and is well connected to the city by buses and taxis.

There is plenty for holiday makers to see and do in Tenerife. The most visited attraction is Teide National Park at the centre of the island. The park lies at roughly 2000 metres above sea level and features a gigantic volcanic crater 30 miles in circumference, out of which rises Spain’s highest mountain, mount Teide. Access to the summit is available either by foot or by cable car and on a clear day offers magnificent views over Gran Canaria and La Palma.

Loro Parque (parrot park) near Puerto de la Cruz is home to over 300 parrots as well as amazing sea lion and dolphin shows, an aquarium with a shark tunnel, Gorillas, Chimpanzees, Tigers, Alligators and a ‘penguinarium’ with a imitation Antarctic climate within which falls 12 tons of snow each day.

For aquatic fun head to the Octopus water theme park near Playa Las Americas where you will find pools, water slides and tube rides suitable for all ages. As well as this the theme park hosts dolphin shows and marine life exhibitions.

Tenerife has its own pyramids in the form of the black pyramids in Guimar on the east coast. The pyramids bear a remarkable similarity to the Aztec pyramids in Mexico and their origin is still a mystery to archeologists. The pyramids are spread over a park covering 60’000 square metres and it is easy to spend a day here walking along the many trails.

Keen golfers will enjoy the 27 hole Costa Adeja golf course near Playa de las Americas. The green fees at this course are fairly moderate at 83? (?56) per person for 18 holes with discounts available for parties of five or more. Also for those looking to be active during their holiday in Tenerife, watersports including paragliding and jet skiing are available at almost every beach.
