Tenerife

Visit Candelaria on Tenerife holiday

The largest and most popular of the Canary Islands, Tenerife is renowned for its year-round sun, wonderful beaches and great tourist resorts. Less well-known are the myriad of beautiful landscapes, charming towns and cultural treasures that can be found all across the small piece of land they call the 'Island of Eternal Spring'. From the dramatic cliffs of Los Gigantes to the lunar-like terrain of Teide National Park, a holiday in Tenerife is a haven for nature lovers and sun-seekers alike.
