What to do and see in Tenerife, Canary Islands: The Best Things to do

March 3, 2022 Osvaldo Hartline

Tribal Terenife still shows influence from the aboriginal Gaunches people. Visitors clamber to conquer Mount Teide (Spain’s tallest peak) and to stretch out on the sands of Los Gigantes. Squawk hello to the playful parrots of Loro Park, or brave the petrifying drive to beautiful Masca Valley. For a true taste of Terenife, sample fresh farmhouse cheese and local bananas. A piece of delicate calado canario lace makes a special souvenir.

Parque Rural de Anaga

Reviewed By JenyL126

I took the bus from La Laguna to the visitor centre, they were very helpful there, suggesting a walk that fitted my requirements and providing a map. I walked the 5 km on my own and it was wonderful, so peaceful with just the bird song for company. Beautiful views near the visitor centre, not very obvious where to go to see but if you cross the road (from the centre) and walk to the left of the restaurant, behind it there are steps, or a ramp, which lead you up to an amazing view. Also there is a cafe near the centre which was very good.

We went on a transfer from Playa de las Americas, which doesn't take as long as they say! Fantastic park with so much to see! Highly recommend the tour that they offer you when you go in as you get to see everything behind the scenes as well such as the vets, penguins and go underneath the orca whale tank to see them! They tell you everything about the place as well and will help you to find out which order to do the shows in! Whale and dolphin shows are a must!! Food is above average but fine for snacks and drinks!

Volcan El Teide

Reviewed By leorodrey - Miami, United States

Wow.. just an amazing place to visit, if you are going on you’re own please keep in mind that you need a permit to climb to the pick, only 20 persons allow per windows, to get this special permit from the Adminstracion de Parques Nacionales plan in advance, at least 2 months.. if you stay at the pick sanctuary at the base you can climb by yourself but need to be down by 9:00 am.. recommended to get a turoperador.. it’s easy and safe way to go.. will be back..

Playa de las Teresitas

Reviewed By ThomasEkvall - Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spain

Las Teresitas has everything that makes Tenerife famous. It has the best beach on the island, ideal for kids and with plenty of parking. It is also a hidden gem, more than 95 per cent of the visitors are people from Santa Cruz de Tenerife, the capital of Tenerife. Next to Teresitas is a small fishing village called San Andres with many excellent fish restaurants, I can wholeheartedly recommend Ramon.
