Tenerife
The island of Tenerife is the largest of seven volcanic islands
which make
up the Canaries group, situated some 2,000 miles
due south of the United Kingdom, lying only about four degrees north
of the Tropic of Cancer. Tenerife
is affectionately known as the
"Island of Eternal Spring" and is the ideal
choice of destination for
anyone wishing for a truly unforgettable holiday.
The north is luscious
and green, whilst the south is almost continually drenched in sunshine.
Rising from the centre is the dormant volcano of Mount Teide, dominating
the island at 12,000 feet. A cable car goes almost to the summit. When you
combine this sun seeker's paradise with the duty free shopping, it
is easy to
why it is such a popular destination
