Tenerife is one of the Canary Islands, a little enclave of Spain right by the Morrocan coast. It's the largest and the most populous isle of the archipelgo, with the area of over 2,000 square kilometers. Tenerife 's shape resembles a distorted triangle and most of the cities, villages and other inhabited areas are scattered around the coasts while the center is occupied by Teide National Park around the peak of Teide volcano - the tallest mountain of Spain and the third tallest volcano in the world as measured from its base.
It is one of the top european travel destinations due to its fabulous beaches and tropical vibe and bearable weather all year round. Most tourists stay around Costa Adeje, the south-western coast which is a gigantic resort built strictly for tourists and designed to indulge their whims - mostly for a "beach and party" experience. However, the island offer SO MUCH MORE! We spent a week there and still haven't seen all that it has to offer.
Renting a car and driving across Tenerife was the best idea imaginable. Every part of the island is slightly different, the nature and landscapes varies a lot depending on the region. You'll see if you scroll down!
