Siam Park

While a perfect spot for some rest and relaxation, this town also has its fair share of thrills and spills. Among these is Siam Park, a Thai-themed water park with some of the largest waves and highest lazy rivers you can find.

Teide National Park

Renowned for its enormous volcano and its crater views, this national park is the perfect spot to take a breath of fresh air and stargaze. It’s also home to the Tenerife Observatory—the largest solar observatory in the world.

Whale Watching

Costa Adeje is home to minke, orca, pilot, and sperm whales, most of whom can be spotted all year round. This makes this town the perfect place to enjoy a whale-watching experience to remember no matter what time of year you visit.

Take a look at these unexpected things that you’ll find in the Canary Islands!

A Massive Volcano

Teide is the tallest mountain in the country of Spain, towering 12,198 feet over the island of Tenerife. This massive mountain is also the fourth-highest volcano in the world. Considered an active volcano, it hasn’t erupted in over 100 years, so you can probably feel safe when doing hikes and exploring the region.

Lava Tubes

Volcanic structures’ presence in the Canary Islands can also be seen on the island of Lanzarote, where the “Cueva de los Verdes” can be visited as a rare example of a lava tube. An underground complex that is more than 3 miles long, this strange natural formation was made as a result of lava flows coming from the now-extinct Monte Corona.

Banana Plantations

Did you know that the Canary Islands are one of the only places in Europe where bananas can be cultivated? You’ll find banana plantations on 5 of the archipelago’s 7 main islands, with Tenerife being the top growing spot. Plenty of the plantations offer tours so that you can get a look at this unique crop.

Lanzarote

This island is a more peaceful island with spectacular volcanic landscapes. It’s great for families and can offer the best all-inclusive deals. It is a unique area, mainly because of the strong influence of César Manrique. His artwork and creativity can be found all over the island. Check out Jameos del Agua. The cave was once a nightclub but is now home to a unique species of albino crab, which is normally only found at the bottom of the ocean.

Tenerife

This island has more of a lively feel. Partygoers flock to the Strip to dance all night and the Carnaval de Santa Cruz, a huge pre-Lent festival, is known for its music and dancing. This is the largest and most populated island, so there will always be plenty to do. You will find lots of beaches, with sands from yellow to black. 

Gran Canaria

This is largely a rural and mountainous island. There are some busy resort areas, such as La Palma, which is a popular destination for cruise ships and shopping. It’s a great family destination, with over 60 km of beach. This island has also been awarded a World Biosphere Reserve because of its rich Macaronesian flora and extensive pine forests.

Fuerteventura 

This island is often thought of as being the “windy” island, making it a popular vacation for surfers. It is the second biggest island. If you like the heat but want to stay fresh with a cool breeze then this is the destination for you. The white sands and walled sea areas (to stop sharks coming too close) make it great for families too.

Spain’s highest point, however, is different.

Mt. Teide, the tallest mountain in Spain, is located on the island of Tenerife in the Canary Islands. The peak is situated at 12,198 feet above sea level, making Tenerife the tenth-highest island in the world. While that might seem difficult to reach, Teide has a cable car that makes this imposing mountain accessible for everyone.

The Teide Cable Car was inaugurated in 1971 with two stations. One begins the route and is located at the base of the mountain at an elevation of 7,730 feet and the next one is located near the top of the mountain at 11,663 feet. In only eight minutes, the cable car rises almost 4,000 feet vertically.

From the top station, it is only a few hundred more feet vertically to reach the top, a walk that can be done in about 15 to 20 minutes. From here, spectacular views of the island of Tenerife as well as the Atlantic Ocean are available. It’s definitely an unforgettable sight.

So, ride on this unique cable car the next time you find yourself on vacation in Tenerife!
