Why choose Tenerife for a couple’s getaway

A destination with perfect weather all year round

Tenerife boasts over 300 days of sunshine a year and pleasant temperatures of around 22-28°C even in winter. This allows you to enjoy outdoor activities and the beach at any time, without worrying about the weather.

A variety of experiences to share

Whether you’re looking for adventure or relaxation, Tenerife has it all: sunset boat trips, hiking through volcanic landscapes, swimming in natural pools, visits to local wineries, spas with ocean views and much more.

Connectivity and services

The island has two airports and multiple connections with European cities, as well as a great hotel and services infrastructure that guarantees a comfortable and safe experience.

Things to do in Tenerife as a couple

1. Boat trip with whale watching

One of the most popular activities for couples is a boat trip from Costa Adeje. Sailing together on the Atlantic Ocean, with a drink in your hand and the sea breeze caressing your face, while watching dolphins and whales in the wild, is an experience hard to forget.

2. Sunset on Teide

Climbing the Teide National Park together is like travelling to another planet. Its volcanic landscape is unique in the world. We recommend you go up at sunset and, if you can, take the cable car or a night tour to observe the stars. Tenerife’s sky is one of the clearest in the world, ideal for a magical night with your partner.

3. Beach day with your partner

From the golden beaches of the south such as Playa del Duque or Playa Fañabé, to the wildest and most natural beaches such as El Médano or Playa de Benijo in the north, Tenerife offers a wide variety of coasts where you can enjoy the sun and the sea with your partner.

4. Massage or spa with views

Many couples are looking for moments of total disconnection, and in Tenerife you will find many spas where you can relax, as well as massage and wellness services ideal for disconnecting together.

5. Romantic dinner with sea views

Tenerife is also a gastronomic destination. You can enjoy everything from local Canarian cuisine (such as gofio, mojo and papas arrugadas) to more sophisticated dishes in Michelin-starred restaurants.

Recommendation: dine on a terrace facing the sea in La Caleta, just a few minutes from Costa Adeje.

6. Stroll through charming villages

Garachico, La Orotava, Masca or Icod de los Vinos are some of the most picturesque villages in Tenerife. Their traditional architecture, cobbled streets and lush nature create the perfect setting for a romantic full-day getaway.

7. Explore nature together

In addition to Mount Teide, the island offers natural sites perfect for hiking or gentle excursions as a couple, such as the Anaga Rural Park or the Barranco del Infierno ravine.
