The weather
on Tenerife can change greatly depending upon your location on the
island. Sometimes even by only driving 5 or 6 kilometres you can move
from dark heavy cloud to bright uninterrupted sunshine.
The warmest
climate is to be found on the south and west sides of the island,
but up on Teide where the peak is 3718m (12,198ft) above sea level,
cold winds and even snow are not hard to find, especially in the winter
months.
Tenerife
has the lowest temperature difference between the summer and winter
seasons than anywhere else in the world. Hence the island has been
nick named the land of the eternal spring time. The weather does occasionally
include rain but there is no specific rainy season.
The minimum
and maximum annual average air temperatures (not the temperature you'll
feel when sat in the sun, this is much higher) are about 15°C
in winter and about 24°C in summer.
As you
can see, the island enjoys wonderful weather and a delightful year
round climate.
The island
also features many micro-climatic zones with the dry and baron south
and the lush green north of the island offering the two extremes.
