Sights and sounds of Tenerife

Dip into Aqualand

It's often hard to tear yourself away from that sun lounger on the beach or beside your hotel pool when enjoying a relaxing holiday on Tenerife. But one thing that's really worth making the effort to do is spending some time at Aqualand Costa Adeje, which is situated on the Adeja-Arona coast close to Playa de Las Americas. This is the only water park and dolphinarium in the Canary Islands.

The water park offers a huge range of fun attractions for all ages to enjoy. While there don't miss Tornado - the star of the show. This adrenalin-pumping ride will be a challenge even to thrill seekers! If you prefer something less racy, relax in the Congo River while the little ones live their adventures on the Pirate Boat and in the Mini Park. This great attraction has also been awarded Best Dolphin Show in the World.

Hit the high spot

Taking a different route to many of the Mount Teide tour coaches, on this trip you'll travel gently up to the pretty village of Vilaflor, the highest village in Tenerife. Continuing up the mountain you reach the National Park of Las Caadas where the extraordinary landscape could not be more different to the beaches of the coast. The park is effectively one huge crater from the middle of which rises Mount Teide.

Stop for a break at the highest restaurant in Spain and if there is time, you can take the modern cable car to just below the tallest peak. The journey and views from the cable car on the way up and down are breath-taking on a clear day. From here you travel on across the crater to Los Gigantes with its famous cliffs and lovely harbour, from where you return to your resort via Playa de Arena along the scenic coast road.
