subject: Tenerife Holidays Boast All Year Round Sun and Beautiful Beaches by:Olivia Wilson [print this page] Tenerife, the largest of the seven Canary Islands is a popular destination, chosen for its beautiful beaches and all year round warm weather with an average mid twenty degrees Celsius. Tenerife is a fantastic place to visit for those who enjoy the sun but don't want it to be unbearable hot. The climate of Tenerife is possible because of the winds coming in from the ocean. The cold sea currents from the Canary Islands also have an affect on the temperature on the island.
There are a number of tourist attractions worth visiting. You of course have the gorgeous beaches; choose any as there isn't any area that you should avoid. The volcano is an amazing sight in itself towering to 12,000 feet.
There are the wonderful botanical gardens at Puerto de la Cruz which dates back to 1788 as a rival to Kew Gardens. If you plants and trees are your thing or you just enjoy a nice interesting walk this place will keep you entertained for hours with something form all over the world. Loro Park features the largest number of parrots in the world.
If you are British and aren't the adventurous type Playa de las Americas would be the place for you. Here you will find home favourites from fish and chips to pubs and clubs. There is a long promenade for pedestrians only here where the only thing to get in your way will be locals trying to sell you the usual tourist items.
To really make the most of your Tenerife holiday you must go on one of the harbour trips. Glass bottom boats let you explore the bottom of the beautiful ocean floor. If you want to get closer to nature diving excursions are available letting you get up close and personal with the plant and sea life. If you prefer to stay in the boat the friendly dolphins will usual come to visit the boat.
Los Christianos is one of most popular resorts of any of the Canary Islands. It isn't quite as taken over by the English style, its more traditional and a quieter holiday experience.
