Tenerife is the largest island of all the Canary Islands with an over area of around 2000 sq kms.
The capital of Tenerife is Santa Cruz which has a population of around 200,000 people. The other main city is Puerto de La Cruz which is able to house up to 30,000 tourists at anytime.
The other main difference with Puerto de La Cruz is that its tourist industry is mainly made up of Hotel accommodation whereas the rest of the island of Tenerife is mainly holiday apartments.
The main focal point of the Island is the Mount Teide Volcano which rises to a peak of 3718 meters (12402 feet). Mount Teide is not only the tallest point in the Canaries but is also the highest point in Spain.
Tenerife also enjoys a fantastic year round climate; in fact it's the best, most consistent year round climate that can be easily reached from the UK.
Getting to Tenerife is fairly easy and there are a large number of airlines and airports in the UK that offer flights to Tenerife. It should be noted that most if not all the flights from the UK actually fly into Tenerife South not Tenerife North.
Monarch Airlines Scheduled flights and Mytravellite are the main "low cost" flight providers. Monarch offer a daily flight to Tenerife from Manchester and Luton over the summer months and Mytravellite offer a daily flight from Birmingham over the summer months.
