Tenerife is an island of permanent summer or, to put it differently, of permanent spring. If it looks as if July or August to lasted 12 months of the year here, you may have a point. This is exactly the type of weather they have out there in the South (Sur). In the North, especially in the beautiful Orotava valley (Valle de la Orotava), you have a warm and pleasant spring all year round. Depending on the season, average temperatures range between
21 and 26 degrees, rising 3-4 degrees more in the South.
The island's attractions feature a mellow climate, hospitable people, year-round swimming in the Atlantic and a host of other activities to be pursued. They include eight top quality golf courses and an exciting experience
paragliding from Pico El Teide, at
3717 metres above sea level
the highest mountain in Spain. A
cable car will lift you to 3,555 metres above sea level.From there, climbing to the very top takes just about an hour. However, you need to obtain a special permit, as for nature conservation reasons the authorities impose a daily limit on the number of authorised climbers. For more information and the address of the office issuing such permits, please refer to

Memorable experiences in the
LORO PARQUE, Puerto de la Cruz, feature not only the largest collection of live parrots and penguins in the world, but also the training of dolphins, killer whales, seals and parrots.
The best year-round surfing area in Europe, El Medano, as well as the close proximity of the continent (3-6 hours by plane) have inevitably made the island not only a frequent target of short-term tourism.
Tenerife is rapidly turning into a destination for long-term stays. It has become fashionable to spend winter, the island's high season, in local residential housing.
There are two ways to do it. Long-term renting of a flat, studio, suite or villa or buying such property.
To make your decision-making easier, we have compiled some basic information about the island complete with a small
photogallery. With no obligation arising on your part, we stand ready to advise you on
how to buy or lease property, how to avoid problems as well as get your properties repaired and properly maintained.
Welcome to the island of Tenerife, the island of eternal spring and summer.
