The weather
It is important to know the weather of the place before you visit it for the first time or if you are coming back in a different season of the year. Tenerife has a subtropical climate, with temperatures varying by an average of 6 degrees celsius a year, from a minimum of 18 degrees celsius to a maximum of 24 degrees celsius. Generally, temperatures are mild and spring-like all year round, and it is one of the places in Europe with the most hours of sunshine per year, about three thousand hours.

Furthermore, there is no abundance of rainfall in any season and the island's orography allows for a clear differentiation between the north and south sides thanks to the effect of the canary trade winds. This makes us believe that you can organize outdoor plans all year round, sporting activities during your vacations due to the softness of the summer weather and the dryness of the winter. So don't fill your bags with a million coats, hats, scarfs and boots. Three essential pieces of advice that you have to take into account when you visit us.

The guachinches are typical Canarian restaurants that borned in the north of Tenerife as a result of the need to sell the wine harvested. This has led to the progress of our gastronomy and the safeguarding of our culinary traditions. Moreover, their prices are very economical.
