Working in Tenerife in 2026
The Canary island of Tenerife is only 300 km away from Africa yet it belongs to Spain. Tenerife is now one of the most popular tourist destinations in Europe because of the all year round climate.
In the winter many of the popular resorts on the Costa del Sol, Spain’s most popular tourist coast, get quite cold and so Tenerife being much further south scores highly because many people come here for the mild winter weather and climate.
