Tenerife, the largest of Spain’s Canary Islands, is a great destination for family travel. The island offers enriching experiences for the entire family.
“Here in Tenerife, we take pride in being a destination that embraces the boundless joy of all ages. From the youngest adventurers to the seasoned explorers, there are plenty of offerings that foster cherished memories within families,” said David Pérez, chief executive, Tenerife Tourism.
Tenerife offers endless opportunities for outdoor lovers. Go on a hike with your family. The diverse landscape boasts volcanic peaks, lush forests and coastal trails. Opt for the Sendero de los Sentidos in Anaga Rural Park for a kid-friendly trail. For an aerial perspective, take a ride on tTenerife Cable Car for panoramic views of the island.
Bring the family to one of Tenerife’s theme parks. The award-winning Siam Park
offers water activities from exciting rides to a relaxing wave pool. Forestal Park is the island’s largest outdoor adventure park, with zip lines, ropes courses and other adrenaline-packed activities.
A visit to Tenerife isn’t complete without exploring its beautiful beaches. Las Teresitas Beach boasts golden sand and lush palm trees. Las Vistas Beach offers options for those seeking a tranquil beach or thrilling water sports. If you want to get further out in the water, consider booking a whale- or dolphin-watching tour.
