Tomorrow, I'm going back there. This time it's just the wife and myself - a rare event in that it's about 12 years since we had a break away for just the two of us.
This time we're going to be staying in Los Christianos, an area which is more geared towards couples than the sometimes noisy resort of 'Americas'. Can't wait
Anyone else been to Tenerife? Perhaps you know of some interesting things to do which I may have missed last time?
Hi Floydy
I used to spend every Christmas and New Year in Tenerife.
Originally in Puerto de la Cruz(North)before the south became popular.
I remember Christianos as a fishing village with only one or two restaurants.....then as it grew.
Los Gigantes was also a favourite.
Did you do Teide?
If you are hiring a car there are some spectacular views if you are willing to travel/explore.
I believe most of the early Spaghetti westerns were filmed there and 1 million years BC.
love the place.
Are you interested in Scuba?
There are some great diving sites so doing a PADI course is worthwhile.
