You may go to Tenerife for the sun, but you can not ignore Mount Teide a snow capped volcano dominating the sky of Tenerife at 3,700m high it is the highest peak in Spain.
This great volcano will probably be your first encounter with the scenery of Tenerife as you fly into the airport, you cannot help to be amazed by its extremes from its sun baked base to the frozen peak. A must is to travel from heat of the island to the cold at its peak, but do not be fooled the sun is extremely fierce so make sure your skin is protected.

The island of Tenerife is one of two climates caused in the main by the presence of Mount Teide which effectively splits the island in two. With the cooler northern side a lush tropical paradise with banana plantations and palm trees, due to the area receiving a greater rainfall, you will therefore have a higher probability of some cloudy days, but this can be a bonus in the summer with the high temperatures of the south.
In contrast the south of the island is ideal for the sun worshipers with it being hot and dry with almost a desert like landscape. Flights to Tenerife from the UK take around 4.1/2 hours, landing at the Reina Sofia airport in the south of the island.
