Get Some Much Needed Winter Sun!

TenerifeBs warmest climate in the winter can be found in the south and west sides of the island, with average air temperatures of 18ЉC - living up to its reputation as one of the hottest winter sun destinations!
Playa de las Americas
Playa de Las Americas is by far the most popular winter resort on the Canary Islands but is not for the faint hearted - this is by far the liveliest resort on the island by day and night!
By day most holiday makers relax by the pool, and at night, the resort comes alive as those looking to party the night away in the Canaries flock to the bars clubs and casinos along the famous VeronicaBs strip. The nightclubs wonBt disappoint either - many are low cost and most are open until 5am, many holidaymakers head for the dance haven of ATrampsB whilst others flock to the ACrows NestB for a good night out!
Los Cristianos
Families and couples visiting Tenerife may prefer to stay in one of the many quieter but equally entertaining resorts such as Los Cristianos. This area offers a pleasant mixture of traditional low cost Spanish restaurants alongside Ahome from homeB type eateries and some cheap pubs.
Los Cristianos lies south of Playa de Las Americas and is a stark contrast to its noisy neighbour. This old fishing village is lined with sandy beaches, a beautiful harbour, and a host of pavement caf™s which make this a relaxing spot to pass the sunny days and people watch. For animal lovers, Tenerife zoo is not far away and is a great day out - complete with monkey park!
Tenerife still offers something for everyone, whether you're looking for a good night out, a chance to catch some winter rays or some simple family fun, the array of low cost and cheap attractions on offer on this beautiful Canary island will ensure a holiday in Spain to remember!
