The largest of the Canary Islands, Tenerife
is a hotspot for families looking for a great value holiday with lots of
activities for the little ones, and bigger ones too! Tenerife’s volcanic
landscape also means there is also plenty to see and do away from the coast.
The great thing about Tenerife is it’s a year-round destination, meaning the temperature is inviting whatever the time of year, and with only a few hours' flight time from the UK, it particularly appeals to families with small children.
If you want to get out and about with the kids then you could scale the mountainous landscape in a cable car, then explore and take in the amazing views of the island. There is also a great waterpark just outside of Playa de Las Americas called Siam Park, where kids of all ages can have fun on the many waterslides and pools, or maybe try surfing the three meter high waves at The Wave Palace!
For beach bums, you won’t find many golden beaches here, but there are lashings of striking black volcanic stretches and crystal clear waters. Tenerife’s beaches are the perfect place to relax and unwind whilst the kids enjoy the shallow waters. Plus there are many beach watersports to choose from. Look out for the banana boats dashing through the waves!
A familyTenerife holiday also offers you the chance to spend some time exploring Tenerife’s many shops and boutiques. Los Christianos is a great place for shopping and its department stores will easily entice you to part with your spending money, but head to the smaller local shops and you’ll definitely find a bargain or two. Los Christianos’ harbor is a great place to enjoy people-watching from a pavement café before heading back to the beach for a soak in the sun.
So for a fun-filled stay that will appeal to all the family, whatever their age, Tenerife makes the perfect holiday destination. Partner post
