El tiempo en Tenerife

When is it best to enjoy weather in Tenerife:

Firstly, the average temperature is 18° in winter and 25° with a peak that exceeds 30° during summer. Secondly, the sea temperature rarely falls below 17° in winter and reaches 24° in summer months. Therefore, the climate is a key component of tourism throughout the year in the Canary Islands. However, and although Tenerife enjoys a constant pleasant climate, it should not be forgotten that it is possible to see snow every year on Teide National Park because of rainfall from the north in the coldest months, for instance. Morevoer, the island of Tenerife is said to have close to 100 microclimates and it is not easy to forecast the weather on the island, although most days of the year are sunny and warm.

*Tenerife’s largest holiday complex (Playa de Las Américas), was expressly built in the 1960s and since then it has remained particularly popular with tourists. Both its climate and its lively atmosphere are an undoubted attraction for all types of tourists every year, from bachelor parties to families. It has five main beaches (mostly man-made, with sand from the Sahara desert), some of the largest hotel complexes on the island and, for those who want to get away from the hustle and bustle, it is possible to visit towns like Arona, with its great variety of native flora and plenty of space to relax away from the crowds.

In conclusion and in other words, you will always be able to enjoy a great weather in the island, no matter the month. Certainly, the warmest areas will be in the south of Tenerife, like Los Cristianos or Costa Adeje. North areas may be a bit more cloudy in colder months, but also green and beautiful too 🙂
