Choosing Car Hire at Tenerife South Airport
Getting the best car hire deal to meet your needs can be a frustrating process. However, with a little forethought and planning, it is often possible to pick up a bargain when hiring a car at Tenerife South Airport. Do keep in mind the following:
- A smaller car isn’t necessarily the cheapest car to rent.
- Booking directly with a car rental company can turn out to be very expensive.
- You can find some great deals when you use a car hire search engine like the one at the top of this page.
- Book ahead to get lower prices.
If you are on a tight budget and with only one travel companion, then a Ford Fiesta or similar car will probably do just fine. However, if you’re travelling with a bigger group and plenty of luggage, you will need a people carrier or a large estate car.
When in the booking process, you will be able to discern what is adequate for your needs and make your choice accordingly. Tenerife South Airport generally offers a wide selection of cars, but booking early is essential to ensure availability and to secure the best price!
When to Book your Tenerife Car Hire
Pre-book online
If you want to save time and money, then this is undoubtedly the best option! By using the search engine on our website, you can view a wide range of up-to-date car hire offers and you have access to all the major car rental firms in Tenerife. Check all the current deals and select the one that is best for you.
To get the lowest price, we recommend arranging your car hire as early as possible. If you leave your booking to the last minute, you generally pay considerably more and your choice of vehicles is limited.
Important tip: If you see a price that appears too good to be true, carefully read the terms and conditions. Most likely, you will find a clause that requires you to pay a much higher price for fuel and other items.
On arrival at Tenerife South Airport
If you choose not to pre-book, there are plenty of car rental desks in the terminal building at Tenerife South Airport. However, as the airport can get busy all year round, you may need to queue for a while.
Also, when booking car rental directly at the airport’s car hire desks, you will generally be charged much higher rates. Therefore, you can save time and money by planning ahead and booking your car hire before you travel to Tenerife.
Tenerife South car hire fuel policies
The price you pay for your car rental doesn’t necessarily cover all the cost. This will depend on the car hire company’s fuel policy. Be sure to read the small print to see the terms.
Full to Full
Your car is supplied with a full tank of fuel. You will need to return the vehicle with the same amount of fuel in the tank as you collected it. As long as you re-fill what you have used there will be no additional charges. At TFS Tenerife Airport as there are plenty of petrol stations close by, so re-fuelling should not be a problem. This option can seem slightly more costly at first glance but may end up being the most cost-effective in the long run.
Pre-purchase or Full to Empty
Your car is supplied with a full tank of fuel, which you will need to pay for on collection of the vehicle. The hire company can decide how much to charge for the fuel, which is likely to be more than you would pay at the petrol station. Ideally, you will return your hire car with an empty tank, as you will not be refunded for any unused fuel. Therefore, this option only makes financial sense if you are likely to use up all or most of the tank. The advantage is, that you don’t need to visit a petrol station on your return.
Pre-purchase with Refund
Your hire car will have a full tank of petrol when you pick it up from Tenerife South Airport and you’ll have to pay the full cost for it. Again, the car hire company sets the price for the fuel. When you return the car, the cost of the remaining fuel will be calculated and refunded to your card, minus an admin fee according to the rental contract.
Petrol stations
Near Tenerife South Airport
If you need to return your car with a full tank, the closest option is a BP petrol station located at Atogo. This is on the other side of the TF-1 to the airport, about 1km away.
Airport service stations are of course never the cheapest. You may be better off using one of the following garages close to the airport instead:
Cepsa, Avenida, 38610 Tenerife, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spain ….1km away
DISA, Carretera Aeropuerto Reina Sofia S/N, 38610, Santa Cruz de Tenerife ……2km away
BP, Cr De, Autop. del Sur, S/n, 38611 Atogo, Santa Cruz de Tenerife…..2.5km away
Age requirements to hire a car at Tenerife South Airport
Many car hire companies at Tenerife Airport will not accept drivers under the age of 21. If you are between 21 and 25, you are usually limited to entry-level vehicles and you may need to pay a young driver fee. Less commonly, people over the age of 70 may also be required to pay a supplement and to take out additional insurance cover.
Do I need an international driving licence to hire a car at TFS?
Whether an International Driving Permit (IDP) is needed, depends on your rental firm. Some TFS car hire companies only accept driving licenses issued in the EU or the UK and request an International Driving Permit for licence holders from all other countries.
Other companies only require an international driver’s licence if the holder’s own licence is printed using a non-Roman alphabet (Arabic, Japanese, Cyrillic, etc), is not written in English or was issued in a country not party to the International Driving Permit treaty.
It is important to note that the International Driving Permit is valid only if accompanied by the holder’s regular driver’s licence.
Please enquire with the car hire company in good time, in case an International Driving Permit is needed.
Pick-up and drop-off times
When hiring a car at TFS Tenerife South Airport, you could easily save money by being smart about your pick-up and drop-off times. A day is calculated as a complete 24-hour period. If you pick up your car at 3 pm on Saturday and return it at 4 pm on Sunday, this equates to 25 hours in total. You will, therefore, be charged for two days of rental. To save money, try to return your hire car at least one hour before the original pick-up time.
It’s also worth noting that you’ll be charged more if you pick up your car very early in the morning or late at night. Most hire companies demand a significant premium for pickups between 11 pm and 7 am, while others don’t even give the option of an out-of-hours collection. So, if you’re intending to rent a car after a late arrival at TFS Airport, be aware that your options will be limited and costly.
How to cancel your hire car
You will be able to cancel your booking up to 24-48 hours in advance of your pick-up date, depending on the company you have booked with. In most cases, you will not be charged a cancellation fee. Do check the cancellation terms of the car hire company you have made your reservation with.
How far can I go in my Tenerife hire car?
The rules for this vary, depending on the company and your specific contract. Some car hire contracts will give you unlimited mileage and will allow you to go on a ferry with prior permission and against a fee. Others may set a mileage limit and may exclude the use of ferries altogether.
Therefore, if you are likely to need a lot of mileage or if you are thinking of visiting one of the neighbouring islands (La Gomera can be reached by ferry in one hour from Tenerife), you will need to check with your car hire company first.
Crossing borders is generally not allowed, so a trip to the African mainland, though technically possible, is not an option in your hire car.
Collecting your car at Tenerife Airport
When it’s time to collect your car from Tenerife Airport, have your passport, credit card, driving license and booking confirmation handy to speed things up. If you’re from the UK, you’ll also need to obtain a code from the DVLA and show it at the rental desk. The credit card you are using should be in the name of the main driver.
Driving in Tenerife
Driving fines in Tenerife
The police have the authority to give on-the-spot fines, which are not always fixed. Most fines can be reduced by 50% if the fine is paid within 14 days. Non-Spanish residents will need to pay the fine immediately. Speeding fines can be applied for exceeding the limit by just 1kph.

Tenerife parking rules

Yellow single unbroken lines on the road mean no parking. Check before you leave your car if you are in doubt.
Signs with “vado permanente” or “prohibido estacionar” (usually found on garage doors) mean no parking. Also, there will be a sign with a hoist on the back of a truck and the words ‘ retirada grúa’.
Blue line markings on the road indicate you are in a pay to park zone. Look for the ticket machine which will show you the parking charges for this area
Do not park in any disabled spaces. You can only park here if you are in possesion of a valid permit and you display this clearly in your car. Disabled parking bays are marked with a wheelchair sign.
Good to Know Stuff

- At junctions and roundabouts, the vehicle coming from the right always has priority, unless otherwise indicated.
- Traffic already on a roundabout has priority.
- You can only exit a roundabout from the outside lane.
- You must always use your headlights when entering a tunnel, even during daylight hours.
- You are not permitted to tow another vehicle.
- Some petrol stations require pre-payment before the pump will work.
- There are emergency phones available every 2 km along motorways.
- The local emergency number is 112.
Time to return your car to Tenerife Airport
When returning your car to the airport, ask the person in charge of checking it to confirm that you have handed it back in good condition and with the necessary amount of fuel in the tank.
If there is no one available to check the car, do take a few photos of the bodywork and the fuel gauge. You can use these as potential proof, in case of any disputes.
Check your credit card statements a few days after you get home to make sure the excess block has been removed and you haven’t been charged more than you anticipated to pay. If there are any unaccounted expenses, contact the rental company immediately and back up your claim with the photos you took.

Car rental
In Tenerife, a car is almost a necessity. Too different to be boring, too beautiful to be boring, the island guarantees an exciting experience for the autotraveller and a lack of space on the camera’s memory card. And you can also take the “wheels” with you on the ferry, go to other islands and thus explore the entire archipelago up and down.
There are sometimes queues in front of the parking spaces, this can really be a problem on the island. Impatient tourists are helped out by underground parking lots, where there are more free places. Near attractions, parking is free, but you will have to look for unoccupied space.
Guests of Tenerife rarely complain about traffic jams, difficulties are most likely on the roads of the capital and southern regions.

Tenerife is a year-round resort, the air temperature on the island is stable in winter and summer. It is warmest in August, and most comfortable in September. The coolest months are January-February. In winter, the probability of precipitation is higher, but rainfall is the lot of the north, open to all winds.
And on the other side of the volcano, on the southern coast, the humidity is noticeably lower, the waves are smaller, and the temperature difference can be noticeable – on some days the thermometers are 5-6 degrees higher than the northern ones. Such a contrast does not create inconveniences for relaxation, rather, on the contrary, it pleases with diversity. It can even be regarded as a little Tenerife-style climate adventure, because in the middle of the trip it can even snow at all … if you go to the mountains. So a warm sweater on the island never hurts. Read more: Tenerife climate.

Beaches
You can swim or sunbathe in Tenerife in any place you like. There are no private, purchased beaches here. There are natural beaches with black sand and artificial ones with light sand. They brought it from Africa. By the way, about her. Do not forget that the Canary Islands are not that far from the equator. And there, if you remember their geography course, well, it’s very hot. Therefore, even if clouds are running across the sky of Tenerife, and a light breeze is running through the body, the chances of burning out still remain high. Don’t forget protective gear.
Soothing information for zoophobes:
Walking through the forests of Tenerife, climbing high on the rocks, you will not meet birds of prey or animals, as well as dangerous insects. Sharks and other marine reptiles do not swim to the shores of the ocean. In this regard, everything on the island is quiet, calm and safe even for children. And representatives of the rich plant world, which bloom here especially beautifully in spring, are taken to amaze your imagination.
On the beach you can ride jet skis, water bikes, bananas, try to catch up with the boat, flying on a parachute (parasailing) for your money. All this will cost €3-50.
Tenerife North Airport
Tenerife North Airport is located near the city of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. It is familiar to many by the name of Los Rodeos, although it has a completely different official name, namely Tenerife North Airport.
Tenerife North Airport is of an auxiliary nature and its main purpose is to transport passengers to Spanish resorts. Actually, it is the connecting link of the island communication, it is from here that flights depart to the countries of Europe, South America, but the main one, of course, is the Tenerife-Gran Canaria direction, which is made about 40 times a day. Los Rodeos Airport is significantly smaller than Reina Sur South Airport. There are some inconveniences, which, however, should not concern you. For example, it does not work at night, but this moment, of course, is taken into account by airlines, and you will be warned about this in advance by your tour operator.
Until the 1970s, Los Rodeos Airport was the only one on the island. At one time, it played the role of a military airport, but due to adverse weather conditions and frequent winds in this area, it had to be closed periodically. It was then that they started talking about the construction of new air gates in the south of the island. Today, Los Rodeos is a fully functioning airport, on the territory of which domestic flights are made. Since the early 2000s, the airport has launched a module for communication between the islands and an improved passenger terminal.
Car parks
All three main airports in the Canary Islands offer car parks:
- Gran Canaria. 2 parking spaces are offered. One is located in the airport, representing a three-story building. With a reservation, the cost will be 0.8 euros per hour with a minimum limit of 8 hours, without a reservation – 1.6 euros per hour. * The second parking lot is located 5 minutes from the airport for a long stay. The cost per day will be 10 euros with reservation and 13 euros without it. *
- Tenerife South. There is only one parking lot for tourists. It is located in the air terminal itself, a few meters from the terminal. You will have to pay 1 euro for an hour with a reservation, 1.1 euro without it.*
- Lansaorte. The airport offers two car parks: one for regional and international flights, the other for inter-island flights only. The first is located in terminal 1, the second is in terminal 2. The cost of parking is the same. For an hour without a reservation you will have to pay 1.12 euros, with a reservation – 1 euro.*
Please note! The exact cost and the opportunity to reserve parking can be found on the official websites of the airfields
Baggage rules at Canary airports
. Now even water is called hand luggage, and you can completely lose other drinks purchased in Russia when crossing the border of the Canary Islands.
Make sure you have a bigger bag before your trip because you only need to have one. This is another rule of Gran Canaria.
Weigh your luggage. You will have to go through this procedure as soon as you get to the Canaries airport. One person has the right to transport a bag weighing up to twenty kg. Passengers using business class can bring luggage up to 30 kg to the islands. Do not think that these are jokes, there may be problems with the weight of your suitcases, for each extra kilo you will pay an additional 60 euros. Not good for tourists who intend to carry luggage heavier than 32 kg. They will have to pay a fine and unload their luggage, or employees will require a very considerable surcharge. Isn’t this a motivation for girls who are always picking up a bunch of things on vacation. Gran Canaria will help beauties to be more selective in filling their suitcases.
Each airport and airline may have different baggage requirements, but in general they do not differ much. If during disembarkation you find that you have no baggage, you can contact the office of your airline.
Enjoy your holidays in the Canary Islands and come back here again!

At the end of the sixties, the administration of the island of Tenerife planned the construction of a new airport in the south of the island, since the then existing airport of Los Rodeos or the northern airport – TFN, did not meet the technical requirements due to adverse weather conditions.
There are quite a few assumptions about miscalculations during the construction of the northern airport, one of which is related to the maps of Nazi Germany. You can learn more about it from our guides.
In 1977, the construction of the TFS airport control tower was completed, as well as the terminal building and takeoff runways. The airport was opened by Queen Sofia on November 6, 1978. The first flight was IB187 from Lanzarote. The plane landed at 10:17 am.
Tenerife North Airport – Tenerife Norte Aeropuerto – TFN
During the construction of the southern airport in the northern airport of Los Rodeos, on March 27, 1977, a terrible tragedy occurred, known to the whole world, the largest air crash in terms of the number of victims occurred. Two Boeing 747s collided on the takeoff runway in foggy conditions. 583 people died. This catastrophe served as the basis for revising the principle of takeoff and landing of all aircraft around the world.
The airport has only one runway with a length of 3170 meters, the surface is asphalt. The airport is a transport hub for inter-island communications, flights are operated from there to Europe, South America, but the busiest route is Tenerife – Gran Canaria (an average of 40 flights per day).
The new terminal was opened in 2003. The complex includes a car park, freeway ramps, and a four-story terminal building with 12 gates. The terminal is equipped with six air bridges. The airport regained its International status when flights to Caracas began. Domestic flights between the islands were resumed in 2005.

What to try
A significant place in cooking is given to simple snacks, which once formed the basis of the diet of the Guanches, the indigenous population of Tenerife. And on the table they served “gofio” – differently prepared barley or corn flour. Today, in restaurants, this dish is found as a side dish; you should definitely try it, if only out of interest. The taste of flour is specific, but universal – “gofio” can even be added to ice cream. Another traditional dish is papas arrugadas baked potatoes. Its whole “chip” is in salt, which protrudes on the peel after the water from the pan has evaporated. Seasoning for potatoes is mojo sauce.
The main component of the first courses is meat: rabbit and goat meat. A local resident’s dinner is rarely complete without fragrant stew. Tourists really like Tenerife dried pork jamon, and chorizo sausages are valued for their unusual sour taste.
Remember that Tenerife is an island, which means that seafood is abundant here.

The advantage of Los Cristianos can be considered relative silence and tranquility, as it is somewhat away from the epicenter of nightlife
Los Cristianos Beach, Tenerife
At the same time, Las Americas is literally a few kilometers away, so if you wish, you can very quickly get to the noisy part of the coast. Los Cristianos is not very popular with Russians, and the choice of hotels here is more modest, we find in Las Americas
Los Cristianos, Tenerife
El Medano is a small town a couple of tens of kilometers from Las Americas. The resort is interesting exclusively for yachtsmen and windsurfers, as a fairly strong wind constantly blows here, which scares away ordinary tourists. There are enough restaurants and cafes here, but there are not too many hotels and their level is rather modest. Shops are also for the most part designed for surfers, and not for European fashionistas. El Medano has a surfer school, equipment rentals, and 9 world surfing competitions are held here every year. 0005
El Medano Beach, Tenerife
Playa Paraiso is a quiet and peaceful resort near Las Americas. There are several inexpensive hotels, as well as premium hotels with a huge territory and a lot of entertainment for wealthy tourists. Playa Paraiso is also popular with divers due to the fact that it has the most beautiful and cleanest beaches on the entire coast. In Playa Paraiso, all life is concentrated on the territory of the hotel, the beach is suitable for those who like a lazy holiday on a sun lounger and do not plan to often get out of the hotel
Playa Paraiso, Tenerife
Costa del Silencio is a resort very similar in atmosphere to Playa Paraiso, but a little further from Las Americas. There are no expensive hotels here, most of the guests are couples with children who do not plan active nightly entertainment. Almost all hotels on the Costa del Silencio operate on an all-inclusive basis and provide children’s infrastructure. An essential feature of the Costa del Silencio is the lack of beaches, since the coast here is steep, and there is no sandy strip. The sea beaches at the resort are replaced by a huge pool with sea water for tourists
Costa del Silencio, Tenerife
Puerto de la Cruz is the northern part of Tenerife, the second most important resort on the island. There are practically no Russians here, but among the British and Scandinavians, Puerto de la Cruz is much more popular than Las Americas. In addition to vacationers, a fairly large number of local residents live here. Unlike Las Americas, in Puerto de la Cruz you can walk through the streets of residential areas, taste the real local cuisine and feel the rhythm of everyday life in Tenerife
Puerte de la Cruz Beach, Tenerife
Los Gigantes is another resort where there are no beaches available for swimming. Los Gigantes is located in the west of the island, geographically it merges into Puerto de Santiago and La Arena beach – the only beach on the coast where you can swim in the ocean from the shore. Los Gigantes is popular with yachtsmen and locals who like to relax in small towns away from a large concentration of tourists. Even in these places, you can most often observe dolphins and pilot whales from the shore
Los Gigantes Beach, Tenerife
Transfer and Taxi from the North Airport
Tenerife Norte Airport is much further away from the popular southern resorts, and public transport runs from it not so often. If you have a heavy suitcase, you are tired of a long flight from Russia and you would rather plunge into the ocean, then the best way is to book an individual transfer in advance. You can choose a car depending on the number of people: from a standard car to 19local bus. For large companies, the price will be very favorable. The driver will meet you with a sign and take you to the desired hotel.
Order a Taxi
The most important thing is that the price of a taxi for such a trip is fixed and you will know it immediately when ordering. I think this is the most important thing after a hard flight. After all, tired tourists most often fall victim to the deception of taxi drivers when they wind up prices by 2-3 times. It’s a shame to find out later that you were deceived. Therefore, take care of a taxi in advance, you will thank yourself later. The taxi service is reliable, even if you are a girl and traveling alone, then you have nothing to fear. The driver will take you to the hotel safe and sound.
Check Taxi Prices and Order
Free Taxi
Tenerife has many good shops, so it’s no surprise that tourists combine beach holidays with shopping. VAT refund (or tax free) helps to return part of the money spent, which means that shopping will be even more profitable.
Free tax collection offices are marked with a yellow icon on the diagram. With them you need to go to the VAT refund office on the 1st floor of the southern airport and put stamps on the checks. And then contact one of the Global Exchange representatives. There are two offices at the airport: one is from 05:30 to 21:30, and the other is from 09:00:00 to 23:00. Both are on the 0 floor. You can return the money in cash or to a bank card.
Picturesque places and cities worth visiting
Benijo beach is a beautiful place, but not for swimming. The wild beach, surrounded by high mountains, is more suitable for a romantic contemplation of natural views.
Esperanza pine forest gives way to fragrant eucalyptus trees. There is a special ethereal aroma here. You can walk through the forest with health benefits for a long time and for free.
Dragon tree in Ikod, access to which is allowed only for money. No one knows how old this dracaena is and why its juice is red like blood. And in the same place, in a quiet town, there is a butterfly center where you can enjoy communication with winged charmers to your heart’s content. Excursions to Igod de los Vinos include free tasting of local wines. Perhaps someone will like this information.
Gomera Island is located thirty kilometers from Tenerife. This is a place that attracts lovers of hiking trails with a backpack on their backs.
The Basilica of Candelaria is a place of pilgrimage for Christians and not only. Here is the sacred sculpture of the Black-faced Madonna, which even Buddhists come to bow to. By the way, many esotericists claim that the Black Madonnas, of which there are not so many found in the whole wide world, have a unique energy that goes beyond the understanding of the Christian religion. Every year on August 14 and 15, pilgrims arrive in Candelaria to visit the Basilica in the rhythm of mass festivities and to the sound of fireworks and bow to the sacred Madonna. In the immediate vicinity of this place, the bronze kings of the island rise majestically – nine sculptures with sad faces. What the former rulers of paradise places grieve about, you can find out by ordering a city tour. In fairness, it should be noted that the main temple of Tenerife – the cathedral – is located in La Laguna. We will probably move on to it.
La Laguna is the cultural capital and the oldest city of Tenerife. Many buildings, which are more than one century old, have been preserved here in their original form. Therefore, UNESCO took the city under its protection. Walking here and there, you will find yourself on the threshold of the convent with the imperishable body of the nun La Servita. At one time, she performed miracles of healing. Further you will find several luxurious palaces, a museum of history and anthropology. Actually, each house in the center of the Laguna has its own curious history.
The official capital of Tenerife is Santa Cruz – a modern bustling city where tourists arrive from all over the world. Here, too, there is something to see and where to walk. But the main event of the city is the carnival, which is held every year. This large-scale holiday in terms of the number of participants once got into the Guinness Book of Records. Many tourists come to the island in February-March just to get to this enchanting show.
What else to do on the island?
- Dive 30 meters deep in a €50 submarine.
- Go karting for €33.
- Tickle your nerves at a theatrical joust for €48.
- And, finally, get an aesthetic pleasure from the Spanish ballet in the concert hall “Pyramid of Arona” for €50-80.
Tenerife South Airport – the main one in the Canaries
Holidays in Spain on the Canary Islands are traditionally included in the elite category, that is, by definition, comfortable and high quality. Tenerife South Airport fully confirms this reputation: everything is done here to ensure that guests of the island find answers to all their questions as quickly and conveniently as possible. And our article will try to give these answers in advance, even before the trip itself.
History of the airport
The only international airport on the island of Tenerife until the 70s of the last century was Los Rodeos, which today is simply called Tenerife North. Due to its location in a mountainous area, flights were often hindered by difficult weather conditions – in particular, strong winds. The new Tenerife South Airport completely solved this serious problem for the tourist island, taking over most of the flights from other countries.
Tenerife South-Reina Sofia Airport was built for almost 10 years, and was inaugurated on November 6, 1978 years old. The airport is named after the Queen of Spain, Sophia of Greece, who attended the ceremony.
Now it is the largest air port of all the Canary Islands. It serves almost 9 million passengers a year.
Airport map
For domestic and international flights, one terminal is used, which does not delay its work at all, but it makes it very easy for visitors to navigate. Especially foreigners with poor knowledge of English and especially Spanish – that is, for many Russian tourists.
The plan of the building is simple and straightforward, with all services and entertainment facilities located on the sides of the main hall. The airport scheme includes several cafes, a mother and child room, a modern first-aid post and a pharmacy. Everywhere there are online scoreboards with different information, and the airport terminal employees do not refuse to help.
Airlines and flights
Nearly 50 airlines fly to TFS. Almost all planes from Moscow also land here. You can find a detailed schedule on the official website.
From Moscow, you can fly to the Canary Islands at Tenerife South Airport:
- Aeroflot – from Sheremetyevo;
- Vim Airlines – from Domodedovo;
- Transaero – from Domodedovo.
Transport
There are several options to get from the airport to the hotel:
- a transfer bus provided by the tour operator in advance or provided by the hotel;
- self-ordered transfer;
- taxi;
- rented car;
- public transport – bus.
Public transport stop is located opposite the main exit, dozens of municipal routes run from it in different directions. 111 and 343 will take you to the capital Santa Cruz de Tenerife for 4 euros. Here you will be found by representatives of taxi services with small and large cars up to microbuses. A little further, across the road, there is a huge parking lot and offices of car rental companies. But experienced travelers are advised to take care of rental issues in advance, although renting a car right away is usually not a problem.
The cost of a taxi or bus directly depends on the duration of the trip. During the holiday season, prices rise, but not critically. Also, there are long queues for regular buses during the influx of tourists.
Duty-free
The duty-free zone here is traditional for most tourist islands. Here foreign alcohol of famous brands, products and cigarettes are offered. There are no local goods that are usually bought as souvenirs in duty-free.

A quality vacation is made up of little things and begins with the most elementary – a comfortable arrival and transfer.

Accuracy, respect for guests and an excellent level of service maintain the reputation of the Canary Islands.

A little more about airports
Tenerife North Airport is also called Tenerife Norte. It is worth knowing the Tenerife airport code to easily recognize it – TFN. This is the island’s second international airport. It is focused on serving inter-island flights and flights to the Spanish mainland. Also, guests from the United States of America often fly here. If we compare this air harbor with the South Airport, it will be much smaller in size. The thing is that initially it was not planned at all that there would be an airport in that place. Due to the fact that it is not located in the most favorable place, it does not work at night, and sometimes even during the day. That is why passengers rarely fly there. As a rule, tourists land at Yuzhny airport, as it is more spacious and comfortable.
It should be noted that despite its small size, Severny Airport has all the necessary facilities. There are cafes, restaurants, ATMs, shops, and VIP zones. There is also free Wi-Fi. In general, this airport has everything that is necessary for passengers. However, as we have already said, it does not work around the clock, which significantly affects the number of people arriving there.

It was erected on an island with the same name, five kilometers from Puerto del Rosario. The emergence of this important transport hub was facilitated by the influx of tourists to the island. There is only one terminal, but planes from different European countries land here.
Lanzarote is one of the most sought after international transport hubs in the Canaries. It serves a piece of land of the same name and is located five kilometers from Arrecife. In 2002, passengers were able to watch how one of the terminals turned into an aviation museum, which did not go unnoticed by tourists. In 2010, the passenger turnover amounted to almost 5 million people.
Hierro also has its own airport, nine kilometers from Valverde. It is the only one that provides an air corridor between the island and the mainland and other parts of the Canary Islands.
Tenerife is a tourist mecca. There are a lot of people who come here on vacation, so there are two airports at once. Yuzhny accepts international flights, previously it was called Reina Sofia Airport. The airport is located 61 kilometers from Tenerife. But in the northern part of the island, not far from Santa Cruz de Tenerife, the North Airport was built. From here planes go to South America and Europe. There are about forty flights a day.
Rules for the carriage of baggage at Canary airports
If you arrive on the islands on a charter flight Moscow – Gran Canaria, then you should know that the rules for carrying hand luggage and baggage have become stricter here. Even water is now called hand luggage, and you can completely lose other drinks purchased in Russia when crossing the border of the Canary Islands.
Get a bigger bag before your trip, because you should only have one. This is another rule of Gran Canaria.
Weigh your luggage. You will have to go through this procedure as soon as you get to the Canaries airport. One person has the right to transport a bag weighing up to twenty kg. Passengers using business class can bring luggage up to 30 kg to the islands. Do not think that these are jokes, there may be problems with the weight of your suitcases, for each extra kilo you will pay an additional 60 euros. Not good for tourists who intend to carry luggage heavier than 32 kg. They will have to pay a fine and unload luggage, or employees will require a very considerable surcharge. Isn’t this a motivation for girls who are always picking up a bunch of things on vacation. Gran Canaria will help beauties to be more selective in filling their suitcases.
Each airport and airline may have different baggage requirements, but in general they do not differ much. If during disembarkation you find that you have no baggage, you can contact the office of your airline.
Enjoy your holidays in the Canary Islands and come back here again!

Canary Islands, Spain
There are two ways to get to Lanzarote from Tenerife: by ferry and by plane. The ferry is long and expensive. Cheaper and faster by plane. Direct flights from Tenerife are operated by Binter Canarias. Departure from Tenerife North Airport. Flight time is only 50 minutes. They write that the cost of tickets is 50-70 €, but there are significant options. So, if you book tickets in advance, it will be much cheaper. If they are also irrevocable, then even cheaper. And if you’re over 60, you get a discount. And if you order back-to-back, then more expensive. In general, my wife and I were over 60, ordered a few days in advance, cost 80€ per person.
Specifically, you need to find out on the Binter Canarias website, but here you need to keep in mind that there is no Russian version of this site. All information in Spanish, English, German.
We flew on a small twin-engine, turboprop aircraft (photo below). Two rows of seats, two in each, like in a bus. And just like on a bus, the seats are not numbered, so if you want to sit in a convenient place, then you should not condescendingly look at the cranks crowding in line when they are announced and when they run out, imposingly go out to the aisle. However, if you don’t care, then you can do it that way, standing places are not provided there – they will put you somewhere. In flight, they offer water and a candy-type candy.
A last look at Tenerife and its capital, Santa Cruz. In front of Lancerote.
In Lanzarote, the plane comes in from the south.
And here is the first volcano.
We go down further. According to the Google map, this is the city of Castillo del Aguila.
Volcano crater close up.
This is the plane we flew to the island. Here the rules are also simple. When leaving the plane, people saw their suitcases in the unloaded luggage, simply took them and left the airfield. A group of passengers, including us, thought that it was necessary and stopped next to the plane. But an employee came up and explained that we had to go to the arrivals hall.
Arrival Hall
At the exit from the hall, tourists are greeted by the emblem of the island, drawn by the artist Cesar Manrique, a native and patriot of Lanzarote. Caption – Lanzarote Biosphere Reserve.

We exit the terminal and see such a landscape – we are in Lanzarote
Lanzarote Airport
Airport on the map of the island.
Lanzarote Airport is located in the south-east of the island, between its two capitals: administrative – Arrecife (Arrecife) and resort – Puerto del Carmen (Puerto del Carmen). 5-7 kilometers from both cities.
The airport has two terminals: Terminal 1 for international flights, including mainland Spain and Terminal 2 for local flights.
Practical tip: If you are taking a taxi to the airport, state the terminal number. Often a taxi driver, seeing that you are a foreigner, thinks that you are flying home to your own Europe and is taking you to Terminal 1, and you need to go to Tenerife. Of course, it’s not a big deal to get there, but still.
Both terminals are externally and internally decorated in the same style: externally – these are long “undersized” buildings without any decorations, internally – spacious and completely deserted halls.
Terminal 1 hall
As for “where to eat”, in both terminals there is one small cafe with a poor assortment. Sandwich – a long loaf with ham or cheese inside, sweet buns and coffee. Perhaps everything.

Let’s talk about the airports of the famous island. Of course, many tourists are interested in the name of airports in Tenerife, their number and location.
Tenerife Island
Tenerife airports, Canary Islands: in which city is the airport in Tenerife?
Before you go on vacation, you need to find out what Tenerife airports are on the map. In total there are two air harbors on this island, from where tourists from different parts of the world arrive:
- South (located in the municipality of Granadilla de Abona).
- North (located near the capital Santa Cruz de Tenerife).
Tenerife South Airport is absolutely not difficult to find on the map. This is an international hub where people from Russia often arrive. It is also called Reina Sophia.
It is equipped with a three-level passenger terminal. There are special VIP lounges, cafes, restaurants and bars where you can spend time before your flight. There are also many shops where you can buy both products and souvenirs. For children there are playrooms where they can play, run, have fun under the supervision of their parents.

A little more about airports
Tenerife North Airport is also called Tenerife Norte. It is worth knowing the Tenerife airport code to easily recognize it – TFN. This is the island’s second international airport. It is focused on serving inter-island flights and flights to the Spanish mainland. Also, guests from the United States of America often fly here. If we compare this air harbor with the South Airport, it will be much smaller in size. The thing is that initially it was not planned at all that there would be an airport in that place. Due to the fact that it is not located in the most favorable place, it does not work at night, and sometimes even during the day. That is why passengers rarely fly there. As a rule, tourists land at Yuzhny airport, as it is more spacious and comfortable.
It should be noted that despite its small size, Severny Airport has all the necessary facilities. There are cafes, restaurants, ATMs, shops, and VIP zones. There is also free Wi-Fi. In general, this airport has everything that is necessary for passengers. However, as we have already said, it does not work around the clock, which significantly affects the number of people arriving there.

Where to go and how to get around
Tenerife is an amazing place to visit and we always recommend taking the time to explore the island and discover its natural beauty. The reason why Tenerife is such an amazing destination in our opinion is that it has something to offer for everyone: you can sunbathe in Tenerife even in winter, it can also be a hiker’s paradise, it offers plenty of things to do with kids and surfers will be able to take advantage of the powerful swells of the Atlantic.

How to make the most of your time in Tenerife
This depends on how much time you have on the island.
You can check out our article with suggested Tenerife itineraries, depending on how much time you’ll be staying on the island. We usually advise at least one week, but ideally, 10 – 14 days would allow you to relax and visit some places as well.
Can you visit Tenerife without a car?
Yes, you can.
Although we usually rent a car in Tenerife to move around the island faster, it is possible to get around Tenerife without a car and still see a lot of places and do a lot of things.
You have several options to move around Tenerife without a car:
- Titsa buses (public transport)
- Taxi (can be expensive for long distances, but reasonable to move around the resorts in the south)
- Tours and excursions
Move around Tenerife using the bus system
The bus company in Tenerife is called Titsa.
You can buy tickets from the bus driver, or if you plan to do several trips around Tenerife by bus you can buy the Ten+ card where you can charge money and use it to pay for trips (although the card initially costs € 2, it will be cheaper to pay using the Ten+ than paying the driver for individual tickets each time).
Recently Titsa also introduced tourist travel cards, so you can get a Day TravelCard for € 10 and a 7 Day TravelCard for € 50, which would allow you to take unlimited bus trips around Tenerife in the specified period of validity.
You can buy the Ten+ card and the Tourist Travel cards straight from the airport.

Where to stay in Tenerife if you don’t rent a car
The good thing about not renting a car while in Tenerife is that you don’t have to worry about parking, which can be difficult in some places.
But if you want to move Tenerife around by bus, we recommend staying in one of these resorts:
- Los Cristianos
- Costa Adeje
- Puerto de la Cruz
Los Cristianos and Costa Adeje are both located in the south of Tenerife, which would be the better option for the winter months, when the Canary Islands are the warmest destination in Europe that you can visit.
In our opinion, Los Cristianos has better and more bus connections with the rest of the island, so Los Cristianos would be our top choice when looking for a place to stay. Los Cristianos has a very large bus station and it’s easy to catch a bus to almost anywhere in Tenerife. Los Cristianos also has nice beaches, lots of restaurants and is well connected with the other resorts like Playa de Las Americas – you can either walk or take the bus.
Puerto de la Cruz is another good option, especially if you want to explore more of the north of Tenerife or do some hiking. Puerto de la Cruz has good bus connections with Santa Cruz, La Laguna, La Orotava and you can easily visit many beautiful places in Tenerife North.
Santa Cruz de Tenerife, the island’s capital, is also a good place to be if you want to explore Tenerife without a car. Especially if you’re staying in Tenerife for a longer period of time, like if you’re here to work remotely and explore the island in your free time, Santa Cruz is the best place to stay because it has a huge bus hub (Intercambiador de Transportes de Santa Cruz de Tenerife) which has connections with all the major places on the island and it’s easy to just hop on a bus and go somewhere new every day.
Visit Tenerife with guided tours and excursions
View of Mt Teide – photo taken while on the sunset tour with Teide by Night
If you really want to relax and not worry about planning anything, excursions and tours are the easiest way of visiting Tenerife without a car.
The good thing about Tenerife is that you have plenty of options to choose from when it comes to guided tours and excursions, but the one thing we recommend not missing out on is visiting Mt Teide.
We don’t recommend trying to visit the national park using the public bus because you will waste a lot of time and you won’t be able to see as many spots as with a tour.
Other excursions to help you see more of Tenerife
Loro Parque
Especially if you’re traveling with kids you might want to take a trip to Loro Parque, as they have a ticket option that includes the bus trip to Puerto de la Cruz and the park is really worth an entire day.
Take an island tour
Go on a tour to see some of the most iconic places in Tenerife: Los Gigantes cliffs, El Medano beach and the Candelaria Basilica.
Go on a hike in the mountains of Teno Rural Park
Hike up to the small peak of Gala for magnificent views over the entire mountain range, and see as far as La Gomera and La Palma in good weather. Descend back down the mountain along an old goat track to arrive in the beautiful village of Masca.
Tuk Tuk Tour of Costa Adeje and Canary Farm
See the many sites of Costa Adeje including its beaches and the church of San Sebastian. Experience the natural beauty of the Caldera del Rey and the Canary Farm

“- The main advantage of San Blanc during covid times is a separate entrance and distance from crowded resorts, such as Las Americas.
Green golf courses, embankment overlooking the famous “Red Mountain” and a paved wooden path for walking and jogging. Here is the Nautico cafe with a view of the ocean and monolithic rocks, as well as all the necessary infrastructure. A pleasant surprise after a 6.5 hour flight was the close distance from the airport instead of another hour drive to the destination. Definitely worth renting a car here to see all the sights of the island and be sure to stop by the nearest market to buy real fruits and vegetables from Canarian farmers. The best potatoes are not on Mars, but on Tenerife! And also papaya, tomatoes, meat, fish … In general, everything here is the best! ”

Cons
The lower-middle-range Duna Beach Apartments is a simple apartment complex, located directly on the Maspalomas golf course. The location is slightly out of town. The center of Maspalomas is a five-minute drive away and the Playa del Ingles beaches are a 10-minute drive. The 136 apartments are spacious with flat-screen TVs, equipped kitchenettes, and private balconies. The restaurant and bar serves both buffet and a la carte meals, though these are not included in all room rates and food gets mixed reviews. A large outdoor swimming pool is a highlight here, along with the tennis court and an on-site supermarket. Both Wi-Fi and parking cost extra. Note that cockroaches seem to be an issue here. As an alternative, Turbo Club has more modern apartments and offers all-inclusive rates; though it’s further from the beach.

Seaside apartment complex with well-maintained gardens
Duna Beach Apartments is more like an apartment complex than a hotel. The typical old-fashioned seaside complex is starting to look a bit drab. The exterior, however, still looks okay with clean white walls, lush lawns, tall palm trees, and well-maintained gardens. Inside, the lobby is a bright area with lightly-tiled floors and a few chairs with pretty floral cushions. The restaurant and bar area could do with some freshening up, since the tables and chairs look a bit shabby. The bar area does have a nice Spanish vibe though, with traditional patterned mosaic tiles lining the bar counter and floorboards. Guests should be warned of the many cats roaming the property, though previous guests haven’t noted them to be too much of a problem and they help keep the cockroaches in check. Guests are a combination of families and group travelers who are happy with the simple, slightly dated, features for the budget-friendly rates.

Location
Outside Maspalomas, located within a golf course
The Duna Beach Apartments complex is situated within the Maspalomas Golf Course, with only other resorts and hotels within the immediate vicinity. Maspalomas Botanical Garden is a four-minute drive from the property and a five-minute drive from Maspalomas, where there are several restaurants, bars, and shops. There is a beach shuttle that runs from the hotel for an additional fee. It’s a 10-minute drive to the Playa del Ingles beaches and the Maspalomas Dunes. Other nearby attractions include Holiday World Maspalomas (six-minute drive away) and Aqualand Maspalomas Water Park (a 10-minute drive away). It’s a 15-minute walk to the nearest bus stop, and there are usually a few taxis right outside of the complex. Gran Canaria Airport is about a 26-minute drive from the property.

Amenities in all apartments include flat-screen TVs and kitchenettes with mini-fridges, burners, microwaves, coffeemakers, and cutlery.

Dunas Maspalomas in Gran Canaria, Spain
Search
Place, city, country, sight
© Anilah / Shutterstock
The Dunas Maspalomas are located at the southern tip of the Spanish island of Gran Canaria. The idyllic oasis of La Charca in the middle of the spectacular sand dunes offers both party and relaxation.
The Dunas Maspalamos are located on the Spanish island of Gran Canaria directly on the Atlantic Ocean and occupy a gigantic area of 2 by 6 kilometres. The gentle dunes at the southern tip of Gran Canaria are one of the most popular holiday destinations for Europeans.
Advertisement
South of the tourist metropolis of Maspalomas, which consists mainly of hotels and holiday homes, rises the Dunas Maspalomas, the only sandy desert in Europe, which has something to offer for party animals as well as families or holidaymakers who long for peace and quiet.
Where the fine sand comes from, on which thousands of holidaymakers have been relaxing for years, was unclear for a long time. Investigations finally revealed that on the one hand it comes from corals and shellfish that have been ground up by the surf over millions of years, and on the other hand it consists of material from the rocky coast that has been removed by erosion. The Barranco de Fatage river, which today no longer carries water, also used to wash up material that was added to the sand. The trade winds blow this exotic sand mixture inland, where it piles up into huge dunes as soon as it encounters an obstacle on its way. These dunes move about two to five metres inland every year.
The flora and fauna in this area is rather sparse, because the climate is very dry and windy and the soil has a high salt content. Only creatures with a high degree of adaptability can settle here permanently. At the western end of the Dunas, however, one comes across an area where, compared to the rest of the sand desert, there is a lot of life. In the 19th century, the Faro de Maspalomas, a lighthouse about 70 metres high, was built here. Around the tower is La Charca, an oasis where rare water birds have a welcome opportunity to breed.
Dunas Maspalomas Nature Reserve
In the sixties, La Charca was also developed for beach holidaymakers. What followed was a real building boom in the following two decades. The dunes were built up uncontrollably, which disturbed their migratory movement and led to the migration of various bird species. As if that were not enough, the numerous tourists turned the area into a veritable rubbish dump, and sewage was also repeatedly discharged. To stop the destruction of the dunes and the beach, the area together with the Oasa La Charca was declared a nature reserve of international importance in 1987. The construction on the dunes was demolished, but it is still possible to walk on them.
The beach stretches along the dunes for about four kilometres before it merges with Playa del Inglés to the east. Like Maspalomas, this section of the beach belongs to the municipality of San Bartolomé de Tirajana.
Visit to the Dunas Maspalomas
Maspalomas beach has something to offer for all ages and interests. Not only is it the best-known nudist area in the Canary Islands, but there are also plenty of shopping opportunities in the surrounding shopping centres, and the nightlife has plenty of fun in shop for all holidaymakers in a party mood.
But those seeking peace and quiet to escape the stress of everyday life will also get their money’s worth here, because around the dunes you can relax wonderfully and also visit one or two sights. Because of the shallow-sloping beach, the area is excellent for families with small children.

Game room
All services of the hotel
The Canaries are almost an adventure, but as soon as the landing gear touches
surface of the island of Gran Canaria, it ends for many, except for those who
decided to stay at the Dunas Mirador Maspalomas hotel. Located in the city of Maspalomas on Einstein street,
this hotel complex is three kilometers away from the sea, but it is close to
mountains, with all the accompanying hiking trails designed for
tourists. On the territory, surrounded by buildings, in the architecture of which
oriental and western styles, two spacious pools are equipped with tiers, and
around a dense shady garden.
Craving for water procedures
most tourists always come first, and here they discover for themselves
rather unusual artificial reservoirs. Even when it’s cool and the water is all over
district does not have time to warm up, bursts are heard on the territory of the hotel – this
guests dive into the upper pool, where there is heating. The rest of the time
both bowls are occupied by bathers, and many are rapidly moving from the upper
to the bottom along the gutter, which is to the liking of both children and adults. Having swum, guests
of the hotel relax in sun loungers or at the tables of a cozy snack bar, sipping through
straws of soft drinks and refreshing forces with simple snacks.
Here, in the pools, and
entertainment begins. Water basketball and polo, aqua fitness – all this
offered to guests throughout the day. Here, with the help of the team
entertainers, various competitions are organized, both for adults and
for kids. There is also a good playground nearby for the kids.
and in the building there is a separate room for a game mini-club. Within the territory of
there is a playground with giant chess, and in the games room for adults there are
tables for billiards, tennis and football. Twice a week professional artists
putting on exciting shows. Well, for those who strive for peace and spiritual
balance, there is a SPA center where experienced staff makes massages and conducts various
procedures.
Despite being in a hotel
there is an Internet cafe, and Wi-Fi is available in public areas, guests do not have to
leave their cozy rooms in order to connect to the global network. AT
each room, whether it is a standard double apartment or a family apartment,
Wi-Fi access is provided. So those who come here
in order to engage in blissful idleness, they allow themselves not to leave
hotel almost the whole day. The only downside is that the rooms are not
air-conditioned, however, it is easy to close the sun with thick curtains, and
The climate in this area is mild.
Furnishings in the rooms of both
classes are similar. The only difference is that in the double apartments there is a living room
a corner of a soft furniture set, a coffee table and a TV set on
the desktop is combined with the bedroom, and in the family rooms it is placed in a separate
room. In the evenings, when the mountains are cool, tourists often arrange
small tea parties on the balconies, where there are plastic tables and chairs. From here
overlooking the pool or the surrounding area, including
town, on the outskirts of which the hotel complex is located. Bathrooms
the rooms in the apartments are small, but they have everything you need
plumbing.
Of particular interest to many tourists
call the hotel bar counters where local and exotic drinks are served, and
also local draft beer. That is why many prefer to take the package
“all inclusive” to order everything that had to be ordered until 11 pm
taste. But this is possible only in the disco hall, in the bar at the lobby
International and non-alcoholic drinks are not included with the All
Inclusive”. But in a restaurant where a culinary show takes place right in front of
visitors, for breakfast, lunch and dinner, all kinds of drinks are served,
starting from lunch at the disposal of Dunas guests

Rocky mountains covered with sparse vegetation are visible on the horizon from the west. Shortly before reaching Playa de Tarajalillo (1) , you can turn off the motorway onto the coastal road. An obsolete aircraft at the edge of the road indicates the location of the flying club with a sports airfield – Aeroclub de Gran Canaria (Aeroclub de Gran Canaria) . Through Canyon del Aguila (Ca ñ on del Águila) , the path leads to the “cowboy town” Sioux City (2) , where sun-weary vacationers can enjoy exciting cowboy shows and saloons (bus service from Playa del Inglés and from Maspalomas; no shows on Mondays). * Playa del Aguila and * Playa de San Agustin From * Playa del Águila (3) , a string of beaches stretches along the coast, connected to each other by a ribbon of coastal promenades that is not tightly adjacent to the coast. These beaches stretch for more than 8 km, all the way to Playa del Inglés and the dunes of Maspalomas. Multiple world champion windsurfer Bjorn Dunkerbeck, together with his sister Britt, opened windsurf school in Playa del Aguila . A small beach with light sand and fairly clear water attracts mainly a young, athletic audience. On the other hand, on the nearby, very well-maintained beach * Playa de San Agustín (4) representatives of all generations indulge in idleness. This spacious bright beach stretches for more than 2 kilometers. Modern hotels and apart-hotels with lush gardens lined up on the hills and down to the shore. Here you can comfortably swim in the pool belonging to the hotel, or swim in the sea. From the hotels, cross the footbridges across the multi-lane highway to the coastal promenade and beaches. In the salons and discos of large hotels, you can have a great evening, and if you’re a little lucky, then replenish your vacation budget at casino luxury hotel “Meliá Tamarindos” , located by the beach. * Playa del Inglés and ** Las Dunas de Maspalomas If it is still relatively calm on all the beaches mentioned, then on the popular wide beach – * * Ingles (Playa del Inglés) (1) is always colorful and noisy. From year to year, many vacationers make their vacation dreams come true here. Moreover, no one will have to give up their favorite coffee and domestic tabloid newspaper or try to portray “something” in broken Spanish. The local waiters and shopkeepers are geniuses at languages. All day long, an endless stream of walkers stretches in both directions along the water’s edge. Here you can watch paragliders and see how windsurfers struggle with wind and waves, or appreciate the puzzling turns of boats. Playa de San Agustin – a sea of sun, sand and people. Maspalomas in a strong breeze is a yachtsman’s paradise. And, of course, this city-like resort has a vibrant nightlife in bars, clubs, discos and gambling halls. Here they play bingo, eat Black Forest cherry cake, drink Irish Guinness and sing in the Bavarian dialect with Tyrolean overtones. Huge shopping centers with all kinds of boutiques and shops tempt with jewelry, fashionable novelties, electronics, souvenirs and products from all over the world. The largest of them – Kasbah (2) in Plaza del Teide and Yumbo (3) in Avenida de España, next to the Tourist Information Centre. Playa del Inglés almost imperceptibly passes into a magnificent ridge of dunes ** Las Dunas de Maspalomas (4) kilometers wide. Here crowds of people disperse, and in the middle of golden sand dunes, reaching a height of 10 m, sun worshipers (often naked) find themselves in the arms of life-giving silence. Wandering through these dunes, which have the status of a protected area, you feel as if you were in a miniature Sahara, especially when a camel caravan passes by. At the western border of Maspalomas lies an area called El Oasis . Here Lake Charca (La Charca, lit. “Puddle”) (5) , a meager remnant of a lagoon with reed-covered shores, borders on a sparse palm grove. Access to the shores of the lagoon is prohibited because the reeds protect waterfowl and their nesting sites. The southernmost tip of the island is crowned by the highest in the Canaries Maspalomas lighthouse (El Faro de Maspalomas) (6) 65 m high. Hotels, restaurants and shops are located in its shadow. North of the lagoon you will find a camel safari departure point, as well as a golf course and squash halls. Not far from Campo Internacional, a sprawling town full of bungalows and gardens, a real holiday experience awaits you in a huge amusement park Holiday World (7) : with fast-paced attractions, a Ferris wheel, a laserdrome game room ”, trained animals, countless slot machines and even a disco. Nearby, swimmers can find a worthy replacement for the beach in the intricate water landscape Ocean Park (8) . North of Maspalomas North of Maspalomas in the El Tablero quarter there is a good water park Aqua Sur (5) (behind the underpass over the motorway, to the right). If you drive up the rocky gorge of the Barranco de Chamoriscán, after 12 km you will reach * Palmitos Park (6) (reopened in 2008 after a recent fire). Its territory of approximately 200,000 m² is occupied by artificial plantations, where there are about a thousand palm trees, an alley of cacti, an orchid and butterfly pavilion, an interesting marine aquarium and 150 species of exotic birds, many of which simply fly freely in the park. Recently, spectacles such as “primate island” and “interactive” cage have been staged. Children will most of all enjoy a fun show with parrots. There is, of course, a souvenir shop and a buffet. An expensive hotel hid in a gorge above a recreation park in the middle of lush gardens Park & Sport Hotel Los Palmitos . 6 km north of Playa del Inglés (sign to Fataga; there is a bus service), on a hill, there is an ethnographic park Mundo Aborigen (7) with an area of over 100,000 m², which introduces way of life of the ancient inhabitants of the Canary Islands. “Aboriginal World”, as the name of this park is translated, is a recreated Guanche village. It shows typical scenes from the life of the natives, as well as their domestic animals, cultivated plants and crafts. Explanations are given in several languages. A small dramatization represents the struggle of the Guanches against the Spanish conquerors. The park has a cafe and a souvenir shop. Once back on the coast, you can drive west either on the motorway or on the good tarmac road 812. Near Pasito Blanco (8) there is a marina with a sailing school and a private campsite. The calmest sandy beaches between Maspalomas and Pasito Blanco are Playa de las Meloneras (Playa de las Meloneras) and Playa del Hornillo (Playa del Hornillo) . In a former fishing village Arguineguín (9) although the inevitable hotels were opened, its center remained mostly untouched and patriarchal. The only fly in the ointment in this barrel of honey is the nearby cement plant. Restaurant “Cofradía de Pescadores” with an excellent fish menu awaits visitors at harbor visitors. Several times a day, a motor ship runs on the route Arguineguin – Puerto Rico – Puerto de Mogan (duration of the trip is about 1.5 hours). |

Teneriffa eu: Turnover taxes in the Canary Islands
Zollbestimmungen – Reiseführer Teneriffa
Teneriffa ist Teil der EU-Sonderzone Kanarische Inseln. Damit ist Teneriffa zwar Teil der EU und hat natürlich auch den EURO als Zahlungsmittel, steuer- und
zolltechnisch liegt Teneriffa jedoch außerhalb der Gemeinschaftszone. Die Kanarischen Inseln haben damit einen ähnlichen Status wie z.B. Helgoland.
Die Auswirkung erkennt man leicht an den Zigaretten- oder Alkoholpreisen, die deutlich niedriger sind als in der EU. So zahlt man z.B. für eine Stange amerikanischer
Markenzigaretten hier nur zwischen 18,00 und 30,00 EUR, je nachdem, in welchem Geschäft man sie kauft. Auf Benzin werden hier gar keine Steuern erhoben, so kommen dem deutschen Urlauber diese
sehr niedrig vor. Der Urlauber sollte dabei aber bedenken, dass hier die Löhne auch deutlich unter dem deutschen Durchschnitt liegen. Die IGIC, also die Mehrwertsteuer, liegt seit dem 01.01.2019
hier bei lediglich 6,5 %.
Die Sonderregelung hat allerdings auch einen Haken: Man darf hier zwar soviel Alkohol und Zigaretten einkaufen, wie man gerne möchte, darf diese auch ausführen, für
die Einfuhr in Deutschland gelten dann allerdings folgende Grenzwerte pro Person:
Unter folgenden Voraussetzungen können Reisende Waren abgabenfrei aus einem Nicht-EG-Mitgliedstaat (Drittland) nach Deutschland einführen (Obwohl die Kanaren zu
Spanien und damit zur EU gehören, befinden sich die Inseln aufgrund der Sonderregelung außerhalb des gemeinsamen Zollgebietes und es gelten die selben Bestimmungen wie für Drittländer).
Der Reisende führt die betreffenden Waren mit sich.
Als mitgeführt gelten auch auf dem gleichen Beförderungsweg des Reisenden z.B. per Bahn voraus- oder nachgeschickte Waren. Wird Ihr
Reisegepäck per Post voraus- oder nachgesandt, so gilt es dagegen nicht als mitgeführt.
-
Die Waren sind für den persönlichen Ge- oder Verbrauch bestimmt.
Die Reisemitbringsel dürfen ausschließlich zum persönlichen Gebrauch oder Verbrauch des Reisenden, für Angehörige seines Haushalts oder als Geschenk bestimmt
sein. Ein entgeltliches Mitbringen für andere ist somit nicht möglich. -
Die Waren dürfen keinesfalls zu gewerblichen Zwecken bestimmt sein.Sind diese beiden Bedingungen erfüllt, so gelten die folgenden Mengen- und
Wertgrenzen: -
Tabakwaren, wenn der Einführer mindestens 17 Jahre alt ist:
- 200 Zigaretten oder
- 100 Zigarillos oder
- 50 Zigarren oder
- 250 g Rauchtabak oder
- eine anteilige Zusammenstellung dieser Waren.
Alkohol und alkoholhaltige Getränke, wenn der Einführer mindestens 17 Jahre alt ist:
-
-
1 Liter Spirituosen mit einem Alkoholgehalt von mehr als 22 Volumprozent oder unvergällter Ethylalkohol mit einem Alkoholgehalt von
80 Volumprozent oder mehr oder -
2 Liter Spirituosen, Aperitifs aus Wein oder Alkohol, Taffia, Sake oder ähnliche Getränke mit einem Alkoholgehalt von 22 Volumprozent oder
weniger oder - eine anteilige Zusammenstellung dieser Waren und
- 4 Liter nicht schäumende Weine und
- 16 Liter Bier
Arzneimittel
-
1 Liter Spirituosen mit einem Alkoholgehalt von mehr als 22 Volumprozent oder unvergällter Ethylalkohol mit einem Alkoholgehalt von
-
- die dem persönlichen Bedarf des Reisenden entsprechende Menge
Kraftstoffe
-
- für jedes Motorfahrzeug die im Hauptbehälter befindliche Menge und bis zu 10 Liter in einem tragbaren Behälter
andere Waren
-
- bis zu einem Warenwert von insgesamt 300 Euro
- Flug- bzw. Seereisende bis zu einem Warenwert von insgesamt 430 Euro
- Reisende unter 15 Jahren bis zu einem Warenwert von insgesamt 175 Euro
-
Personen gelten nicht als Flug- oder Seereisende, wenn sie als Passagiere eines Binnenschiffs oder als Eigentümer oder Mieter eines nicht gewerblichen
Luft- oder Wasserfahrzeugs einreisen. Reisende, die aus der Schweiz über den Bodensee einreisen, gelten ebenfalls nicht als Seereisende.Die Abgabenfreiheit im Seeverkehr hängt davon ab, dass das Wasserfahrzeug zuletzt aus einem Hafen außerhalb der EU oder aus einem Hafen in einer Region
eines EU-Mitgliedstaats, in der die Richtlinien 2006/112 EG und 92/12/EWG nicht gelten, ausgelaufen ist.Falls Ihre Reisemitbringsel die vorstehenden Reisefreigrenzen überschreiten, sind Einfuhrabgaben zu entrichten.
Die Reisefreigrenzen können während einer Reise nur einmal in Anspruch genommen werden. Eine Reise ist beispielsweise erst mit der Rückkehr zum
inländischen Wohnort oder der Ankunft an Ihrem Urlaubsort in Deutschland beendet. Die mehrfache Inanspruchnahme der Reisefreigrenzen bei unmittelbar aufeinander folgendem Passieren
der Grenze ist daher nicht zulässig.Beispiel:
Ein deutscher Urlauber kehrt mit seinem Pkw aus seinem Urlaub in der Schweiz nach Deutschland zurück. Bei seiner Wiedereinreise führt er nur
Reisemitbringsel innerhalb der Freigrenzen mit. Er parkt sein Auto in Deutschland direkt hinter der Grenze und kehrt zu Fuß zum nächsten Einkaufsmarkt in die Schweiz zurück. Mit
seinen neuen Einkäufen reist er erneut nach Deutschland ein.
Für diese Einkäufe muss er Einfuhrabgaben entrichten, da er die Reisefreimengen nicht noch ein zweites Mal auf seiner Rückreise in Anspruch nehmen
darf.
- Bitte beachten Sie, dass für bestimmte Personengruppen wie z.B. Bewohner grenznaher Gemeinden oder Grenzpendler eingeschränkte Mengen- und Wertgrenzen
gelten. - Für die Feststellung, ob die Wertgrenzen eingehalten oder überschritten worden sind, ist der Warenwert einschließlich der ausländischen Umsatzsteuer maßgebend.
- Die Wertgrenzen mehrerer Personen können nicht addiert werden.Beispiel:
Ein Ehepaar reist auf dem Landweg (Pkw) aus der Schweiz ein, wo es 4 antike Stühle gekauft hat. Die Wertgrenze beträgt pro Reisenden 300 Euro, da sie nicht im See- oder Flugverkehr
einreisen. Jeder Stuhl kostet 120 Euro. Beide Reisende können innerhalb der Wertgrenze von 300 Euro jeweils 2 Stühle (240 Euro) abgabenfrei einführen. Ein anderes Ehepaar
reist ebenfalls aus der Schweiz ein, wo es sich einen alten, restaurierten Bauernschrank im Wert von 320 Euro gekauft hat. Da der Schrank jedoch nicht teilbar ist, kann sein Wert nicht
aufgeteilt werden. Demnach ist der Bauernschrank einem Ehepartner zuzuordnen. Sein Wert in Höhe von 320 Euro übersteigt die Freigrenze von 300 Euro. Somit fallen für den Schrank
Einfuhrabgaben an. - Ist bei nicht teilbaren Waren die Reisefreigrenze überschritten, so werden die Einfuhrabgaben auf den Gesamtwert der Ware und nicht nur auf den die Freigrenze übersteigenden Wertanteil
erhoben. Dies bedeutet, dass in oben genanntem Beispiel der Schrank mit seinem Gesamtwert von 320 Euro zu verzollen ist.

Tenerife > Erasmus+ Teacher Training Courses by Europass
Thanks to their diversity, weather, and authenticity, the Canary Islands are truly one of the most spectacular places in the world. Tenerife is the largest island and a world-famous holiday destination. The island is popular for its black beaches, UNESCO World Heritage site Mount Teide national park as well as its sunshine and good food.
Tenerife and Surroundings
Tenerife is largely divided into three climatic areas: the hot South, with a peculiar contrast between country villages in the mountains and the range of tourist accommodation and magnificent beaches on the coast; the greener North combines stunning landscapes with Tenerife’s most genuine gastronomy and hidden corners. And the Metropolitan Area, consisting of Santa Cruz de Tenerife and San Cristobal de La Laguna, colindante cities referent for the Island’s cultural, commercial and business life. This is where our teacher academy courses are held.
6 Best Things to Do in Tenerife
1) Hang out on the beach!
The island’s most famous beach: Las Teresitas is only a short bus ride away. Perfect for those free afternoons!
2) History and culture
Conquests, traditions, migrations, volcanic eruptions… The history of Tenerife is riddled with highly significant, fascinating events and characters. To learn about the Island’s historic legacy and in order to understand its current life, its culture and its people, visit the Museum of Nature, Archeology and Mankind in Santa Cruz. Find out more about this, and the many other local museums here: https://www.museosdetenerife.org/
3) Candelaria
When the Canary people themselves want to go for a daytrip, where do they choose? Visiting The Virgin de Candelaria in her beach-front cathedral is a popular choice. Candelaria , 15 minutes away from the capital city, is a curious mix of pilgrimage location, market town and beach resort. It celebrates not only the island’s patron saint, but also Guanche heritage, with a series of notable sculptures of their forebear leaders.
4) Hiking in the Anaga mountains
You can escape the city quite quickly, in order to discover a completely different pace of life in the Anaga Bio reserve. Hiking paths, traversing ancient cloud-forest, lead down through agricultural terraces, to the sea.
5) UNESCO World Heritage Site city, La Laguna.
Yes, the cathedrals, historic buildings and plazas in La Laguna are amazing, but most people wander round the pedestrian streets to look at the small, independent shops. Stop for a barraquito coffee at a terrace bar and watch the world go by, before visiting the market in Plaza del Cristo to wonder at the range of local fruit and cheeses. Would you have guessed there are over 30 different varieties of sweet potato grown in Tenerife?
6) Santa Cruz > Opera and botanical gardens
Can’t decide between the opera, the pool or the botanical gardens? These three marvellous distractions lie side by side in Santa Cruz. Will you have the energy to see and do it all?
Our Cultural Activities
After five days of lessons, it is time for the weekend and time to relax. For you and your colleagues who met at Europass, we offer trips to some of the most beautiful surrounding areas. Do not miss the opportunity to participate in these all-inclusive tours, with professional guides, tickets, and transportation included in the price of the course!
Our guided tour of Santa Cruz or La Laguna
On arrival in a new city, it’s always nice to have someone to show you around. As well as taking in some of the sights and flavours of the town, we will share some local knowledge and practical tips to help you find your way around. One city tour is included as part of your course.
Mount Teide National Park
Mount Teide, the highest peak in Spanish territory and the jewel in the crown of the national park.
The road up to the national park is an adventure in itself: Offering spectacular views, the road winds through the clouds and out into the sunshine on the other side! We’ll take a little mini-bus to allow us to stop off whenever it takes our fancy. Weather and personal fitness allowing, we will take an hours’ walk through this amazing volcanic landscape to admire the weird rock formations and wonder at the geology.
On the way down, we will stop off in the pine forest to enjoy how the locals have converted a volcanic crater into a play park and picnic site in the woods
About the Training Centre in Tenerife

In the Garden to them. Bauman for the first time since 200919th century grotto was opened. Why it needs to be seen
40,000 Britons definitely chose the European Union and year-round vacation – that’s how many live on the Canary and Balearic Islands in Spain. It is logical to assume that this category of citizens who have separated from their homeland should be more worried about the country’s exit from the EU. But no, as Afisha Daily found out.
Steven Tyler
Rock singer, lead singer of the Vagabonds, 43
“I’ve been here for four years. Immediately after the move, I bought a bar, but the business did not go. Sold it and started singing in rock bands. A few years ago, I won a local music award as the best solo singer of the year, and now I perform with the guys who won the Best Group nomination.
UK exit from EU? I don’t care. Of course, I did not take part in any voting. The only word I can use to describe my homeland is “depression.” Depression is everywhere: in the weather, in the environment. I don’t worry about my fate. If now I have to give up my British passport and apply for Spanish citizenship, I will do it without hesitation. There are many more opportunities for artists and musicians in Tenerife. In England, I had to work at a construction site, and sing only on weekends. If I return home, I will go to the construction site again. I think politicians should give us a chance to stay in Spain. People who live in the UK will not go anywhere. Therefore, British expats should also be able to stay where they like to live.”

“I have no idea how leaving the European Union will affect us: I am completely calm. Now the pound is falling, but I don’t think it will affect my pension. Why would she change? Some difficulties may arise – for example, my wife, a French citizen, does not have a passport – only an identification card. Previously, this was enough for trips around the European Union. Now she will have to get a passport in order to cross the British border.
Bureaucratic difficulties don’t scare me. I moved to Spain more than 20 years ago, when there was no European Union at all. It was quite difficult to get a work permit. Without an invitation from the employer, it was simply not possible to receive it. I lived for several years in Spain on the mainland, but once I decided to move to Tenerife, I went through the entire permit process from the very beginning. And nothing, everything is fine.
I think it would have been better for the UK to stay in the European Union. It’s hard to say why. I don’t understand political issues. It’s just always better to be in a company than alone. I don’t want to apply for Spanish citizenship, but I like living here. The cheapest bottle of wine in the UK costs 5-6 pounds, and here it costs a little more than a euro. And it’s no worse!”

“I didn’t really think about the referendum until after it was over. She was sure that England would remain in the union. I don’t care how the exit of the country will affect the state, but I care about my future. Tenerife is my home, and returning to England is the last thing I would want. If necessary, I will give up my British passport in favor of a Spanish one.
I was never happy in England, I was out of my element. And when I arrived in Tenerife to work under a contract with a tour operator, I immediately felt at home. Six weeks later, I already knew that I would not go back. In England, you have to live by a certain standard: office work, children. If you behave differently, then you are considered strange. Even my closest friends asked me when I would grow up, find a normal job, start living a normal life… So I have been living a normal, happy life here for two years now. I have a young man, work, entertainment. I like the local environment and climate. What else is needed for happiness?
I understand why they voted to leave the EU. There may indeed be too many people who are undeservedly on welfare. But among them there are also British. At the same time, this decision will affect both us and foreigners who live in the UK and pay taxes. Why not make sure that the changes affect only those who behave incorrectly? It is clear that people voted for what is close to their hearts. But now their decision will be reflected in those who lived by the rules and didn’t interfere with anyone.”

“Our business will not be affected by the UK leaving the European Union and we will continue to hire British people to work as bartenders and waiters. But there may be fewer visitors if prices for flights and accommodation creep up. But who can know today if this will happen? Maybe it won’t happen.
I myself believe that leaving the European Union was not worth it – this is my intuitive opinion. I believe that the referendum will only affect politics, and ordinary people will be fine. If they put me before the fact that I need to obtain Spanish citizenship, then I will simply apply for it, this is not a problem. I have been living here for six years, I have a family and a child, I am not going to go anywhere. I moved to the island after spending my vacation here. It’s warm in Tenerife and the sun always shines – that’s the only reason.”
Rob Pérez Marshall
Bar Manager, Scottish, 29
“I was born in Scotland but grew up in Tenerife and my family lives here. In fact, I am a Canarian. I wouldn’t want to live in Scotland at all. I would move only for financial reasons – for example, if I could not find a job in Spain. I like the Spanish way of life, it’s healthier. Many people move to Tenerife, because the weather is always good here, the sun is shining. The British are hungry for this.
Great Britain left the European Union in vain. The country will still regret it. And if Scotland wants to hold its own independence referendum and withdraw from the country, then this will hit the British economy hard. I think that in 2016 we should get rid of barriers, not build new ones. The world is common to all, and everyone should be able to move freely. We are all former, current or future immigrants. The only thing that local authorities can think about is to oblige people to learn Spanish if they live in the country for a long time. Many come, live in the country for twenty years and speak only English. This is the real problem!”
Taxes in Tenerife: everything you need to know
Tenerife is the largest and most popular among tourists among the Canary Islands. Its area is just over 2,000 km, and its population is over 960,000 people.
This truly heavenly island beckons with its warm, dry climate and spacious well-maintained beaches in the south, wetter weather with light breeze in the north, and picturesque scenery of Spain’s highest point, Mount Teide, in the south.
Tenerife welcomes guests 365 days a year, cordially offering them its natural and man-made attractions, tourist attractions, exciting excursions to resort towns.
Thinking about buying property on the island? This is a great idea, because here you will find:
- warm sunny climate all year round;
- tourist season 365 days a year;
- favorable ecological environment;
- low crime rate;
- low real estate maintenance costs;
- favorable taxation.
Although all of the above are important factors for the profitability of your future property, nevertheless, the last point is worth considering in more detail, because it significantly distinguishes Tenerife from mainland Spain.
Tenerife tax system
The Canary Islands, and Tenerife in particular, belong to the general regime of the Spanish tax system, being a modern system of taxation operating within the European Union. This allows us to work here in a single European space, freely moving capital, turnover and our employees within the current borders of the European Union.
At the same time, Tenerife has adopted a number of specific measures included in the REF – Economic and Tax Regime of the Canary Archipelago. These tax measures are implemented in the system of tax incentives applied for both direct and indirect taxation. All these benefits are provided for those companies whose activities are aimed at the economic development of Tenerife.
In 2000, a European Commission project was implemented, thanks to which Tenerife, along with the other Canary Islands, became part of the Special Economic Zone – ZEC (or Zona Especial Canaria), which involves the use of preferential tax rates. This regime of tax incentives has been repeatedly extended, and is currently extended by the European Commission until 2026 with the possibility of extension until 2030.
Within the framework of this preferential economic zone, all enterprises based in Tenerife will be able to avoid certain difficulties associated with their geographical isolation from other European markets. Tax preferences for residents of the island are provided for both corporate income tax and property transfer tax.
Tax rates and benefits in Tenerife
Preferential taxation is part of the general Spanish tax system, which does not conflict with the current tax system in the European single market area. In general, in Tenerife, two main types of benefits can be distinguished: indirect taxes.
What is the difference between the tax rates in Tenerife and other regions of Spain?
The Special Economic Zone, located on the island, is primarily a zone with a reduced income tax rate of 4%, while on the Spanish mainland this rate can be 30%. To meet the criteria for preferential taxation, it is enough to make minimal investments and create new jobs. This turns out to be very beneficial for foreign investors, who receive a low tax rate in exchange for cash injections into the island’s economy and the creation of jobs under a simplified system.
If we look at the reserves for investments in the Canary Islands, they are income tax exemptions that can reach up to 90%, and income tax up to 80%. This is a great tax advantage to make it easier to capitalize on companies operating in Tenerife that must reinvest in order to make a profit. The favorable investment climate of Tenerife thus actively attracts both Spanish and foreign capital.
Tenerife also has a withholding on fixed capital investments in the Canary Islands. This is a preferential system aimed at income tax and income tax, implying a withholding of 25% on investments in fixed assets required for the development of economic activity on the island. Withholding of funds on investments is applied in the same period when the investment injections were made.
The deduction also applies to investments in the Canary Islands, representing an increase of 80%, with a minimum 20% rate for deductions for the implementation of various activities (training, research and development, etc.).
Tenerife also applies exemptions for the production of goods carried out in the territory of the Canary Islands. In this case, income tax incentives are offered, consisting in a 50% reduction in the rate established for the production of goods in the Canary Islands.
There are exemptions for production and industrial activities in Tenerife, implying a reduction in income tax by 50% if this profit was received as a result of this type of activity.
Tenerife also has tax incentives that can reduce income tax by 90%. This type of benefits applies to transport companies that carry out shipping on ships included in the Special Register of Ships of the Canary Islands – REB. This exemption significantly increases the profitability of maritime transport between the various ports of the Canary Islands.
In general, the Free Zone of the Canary Islands is a special customs area where goods can be stored, processed and distributed for a long time without additional tariffs, fees or other related taxes.
ITP-AJD and IGIC general indirect taxation in Tenerife is an injection of capital into the productive assets of enterprises located in the territory, which implies reduced tax rates. At the same time, the delivery of products and the provision of services between enterprises of the Free Economic Zone are not taxed, and no fee is charged for the import of goods throughout the territory of this zone.
It should be added that the privileges of the Free Economic Zone in Tenerife are addressed to enterprises operating in the industrial and commercial sectors, as well as in the service sector. At the same time, organizations whose income is received in states or territories with which Spain does not have an agreement on the exchange of tax information cannot count on tax exemption in full, and this is important to consider.
Property taxes in Tenerife
As regards the tax rates for property ownership in Tenerife, the following are worth mentioning:
- Municipal real estate tax IBI (depending on the cadastral value, taking into account the area, year of construction and condition of the object) in the amount of 0.15% of the real value of the object.
- State tax for non-residents who own Spanish real estate (the calculation is also based on the cadastral value, often coinciding with the IBI).
- Waste tax. Charged twice a year, the total amount will be about 50 euros.
As we can see, the tax climate in Tenerife is no less attractive than the geographic one, which means that the purchase of a desired property in a corner of paradise should not be shelved. You can find our offer of real estate in Tenerife in the catalog.

In Italy, tourists vaccinated with vaccines not recognized in the EU will be allowed to go to restaurants and museums – February 3, 2022

Foreigners who have been vaccinated against COVID-19 with drugs not recognized in the EU will be able to stay in Italy and use services that require a vaccination certificate, provided they provide a covid test result. This is reported by TASS with reference to the press service of the government palace of Chigi.
“Everyone who finds himself in a foreign country with a certificate of possession or vaccination with a drug recognized in Italy, less than six months after the completion of the vaccination cycle, has access to all services and institutions where a super green pass is required (only on the basis of vaccination or recovery), upon detection of the results of a coronavirus test using rapid technology (valid for up to 48 hours) or PCR test (valid for up to 72 hours). The same rule applies to those who are vaccinated with pharmaceuticals that are not recognized and approved,” the country’s Council of Ministers said in a statement adopted on February 2.
“This is unlikely to solve many problems and lead to important consequences during the departure,” said Minister of Health Roberto Speranza. “<...> All orders to restrict entry and changes are not taken into account, but this decision allows you to create conditions for vaccinated with other drugs in Italy. ”
Under current regulations, a number of countries, including Russia, are included in the list of countries from which entry for tourism purposes to Italy is not allowed. Upon entry for work reasons (for a period of more than 120 hours), for treatment, study, as well as upon return from temporary trips from these countries, quarantine is provided. Without special orders from the Ministry of Health, these restrictions remain until the end of the state of emergency, which was extended until March 31.

More than a hundred tourists will soon be able to leave the h20 Costa Adeje Palace hotel in Tenerife, which was quarantined due to the coronavirus. This was announced by the head of the Canary Islands Angel Victor Torres, the corresponding message was published on the government website.
According to Torres, tourists who arrived on Monday, February 24 and did not come into contact with two guests who had previously been diagnosed with coronavirus will be able to leave the hotel.
Initially, one tourist from Italy, who arrived at the hotel on February 17, was found to be infected, Torres said. The diagnosis was later confirmed by his wife. They arrived at the hotel with a group of eight people, who were also isolated and placed under medical supervision.

Two more guests later tested positive for the coronavirus. This is reported by the publication Diario de Avisos. Information about four cases of infection also appeared in El Mundo.
www.adv.rbc.ru
According to the head of the Canary Islands, the hotel employs ten specialists from the regional health service who examine the guests. According to the latest data, 90% of residents do not experience symptoms characteristic of infection.
All residents of the hotel were forbidden to leave it and leave their rooms. As a tourist from Switzerland, who lives in a hotel, told RBC, the guests received a letter asking them to stay in their rooms. The hotel administration did not report the reasons for such a request.
Guests at the hotel described the site as calm but “very boring,” Reuters reported. “We can’t go anywhere, only to restaurants for a cup of tea or coffee,” said British tourist Christopher Betts. According to him, they were not given any information after their temperature was taken the day before.
There are at least two Russians in the same hotel. The Russian Embassy in Spain reported that it had established contact with them.

Black Sand Beaches To Visit In The Canary Islands
4th July 2019
Black Sand Beaches To Visit In The Canary Islands
The Canary Islands are well-known for having uneven terrain,volcanic rock formations and black sand beaches. Which will you visit first?
The Canary Islands are well-known for having uneven terrain,volcanic rock formations and black sand beaches. If you’ve never visited one of these volcanic shorelines, then what are you waiting for?
When staying at the Hotel Jardín Tecina, you can visit the black sand beaches mentioned below on a day trip. You may even prefer them to regular beaches.
Santa Catalina, La Gomera
In the north of La Gomera is the small town of Hermigua. This municipality is home to the 850-metre-long black sand beach, Santa Catalina, one of the largest beaches in the area which showcases lava fragments and volcanic minerals. You’ll walk past terraced crops on your way down through Hermigua Valley, which make for very idyllic photographs. The remains of a historic port where bananas were once exported signal your arrival.
Once you’re on the beach, you’ll notice it’s actually a little bay with black pebbles rather than a fine sand. If you choose to visit during August or September, you’ll see surfers and body boarders take advantage of the huge waves. However, if the sky’s clear and the water a little calmer, you’ll have a front row seat to Tenerife’s Mount Teide, over the Atlantic.
El Bollullo, Tenerife
La Orotava, in the north of Tenerife, is home to El Bollullo,a large, secluded bay with volcanic rocks surrounding it. To access this beach,you must complete a 30 to 45 minute walk along awe inspiring cliff fronts and through banana plantations. This beautifully isolated spot is the ideal escape from the more tourist heavy areas in Tenerife, however, you will find body boarders and surfers gathering here to tackle the massive waves.
Sun loungers and parasols are available to hire if you wish to relax in comfort, in the shade. There are also bars and cafés along the 300-metre-long beach where you can grab a quick bite to eat or drink. If you wish to have a meal, though, the restaurant up in the cliffs offers amazing food and views,making it very popular. We recommend coming during sunrise or sunset to fully appreciate the breathtaking views.
Los Cancajos, La Palma
Along the east coast of La Palma, in between the airport and capital, Santa Cruz de La Palma is Los Cancajos, a collection of three black sand bays. Around these three are plenty of bars and shops selling local goods- which make perfect souvenirs – and tapas restaurants serving freshly caught fish. You can hire sun loungers and parasols in the quiet, secluded bays, to help you relax with a view of the Atlantic Ocean in front and mountains behind.
However, if you wish to add some adventure to your holiday,why not try snorkelling or even scuba diving in the waters? If you’re experienced in cave diving, you may wish to test out your skills in the many caves and tunnels dotted down the beach. The lava tunnel should be top of your list whether you’re experienced or not; it has a depth and length of 15 metres.
La Garita, Gran Canaria
La Garita is a small, quiet black sand beach towards the north-east of Gran Canaria. A long, palm-tree-lined promenade runs along the 260-metre-long beach, filled with fish restaurants, cafes and bakeries that all make for the best lunch time snack or evening meal. If you chose to walk along this promenade, you will discover a bronze statue of a diver, as well as many lizards, so keep your eyes peeled. The perfect view of the sun rising above the sea awaits anyone who arrives early in the morning.
La Garita has plenty more to offer too, including its very own blowhole and cave that are great for tourists passing by and adventurous explorers. El Bufadero de La Garita is a mesmerising sight for tourists who’ve never seen a blowhole before, especially if you catch the water spurt out during high tide.

Too Cold For Iceland? Visit Spain’s Black Beaches Instead
By
Lianna Tedesco

La Palma’s black sand beaches are some of the most dramatic landscapes in the Canary Islands, and are a great (warm) alternative to Iceland’s.
La Palma has the best of both worlds when it comes to an island getaway. It’s part of the Canary Islands which means beautiful oceanscapes and stunning beaches, and it’s also far less crowded than the other islands. While most people visit the beach for the sun and surf, La Palma also offers an unusual, but additional incentive: black sand beaches.
While this type of volcanic beach is something that many people typically associate with Iceland or maybe even Hawaii, Spain is no stranger to the landscape. In fact, La Palma’s black sand beaches are so dramatic in their contrast of colors that it’s often one of the biggest things a traveler remembers after they leave.
So, if Iceland’s shorelines are too frigid, here’s why La Palma is a great alternative.
How La Palma Got Its Black Sand Beaches
As with every other beach in the world, there is a reason why the sand is a certain color. Whereas iron and other minerals make some of Hawaii’s beaches red, and specific shells in the Caribbean produce pink sand beaches, La Palma has a little help from its volcanic landscape. This is where it’s very similar to Iceland’s black sand beaches but the similarities end there, as Spain’s climate and geography are very different from that of Iceland. The sand itself is created from lava rocks that have, over time, been finely ground into granules. The sand in La Palma won’t be soft and ‘fluffy’ like a typical white-sand beach but rather, it’ll be coarse and rough.
- Tip: It’s recommended that visitors wear shoes on the beach and avoid getting sand in their clothing, as it might cause discomfort.

A post shared by Bettina Krieger (@______betti______)
Anyone who’s familiar with the history of the Canary Islands will likely know about their volcanic history, and La Palma has also been the result of eruptions that have lasted for millions of years. Since the island does sit at a descending angle, the sand on the beach continues to be the result of tide-pulverized lava rocks. There’s no chance for new sand to come filtering in because the land itself would need to be flat rather than sitting at an angle.
- Fun Fact: Since the sand is such a dark color, it retains most of the heat reflected from the sun. This means that even during months with cooler weather, the beaches in La Palma continue to be a perfect beach-weather temperature. However, this rapid heat absorption does not apply to the water, which can still be quite chilly in the winter months.

Visiting La Palma’s Back Sand Beaches
There’s not just one black sand beach that visitors to La Palma will have access to – there are many. Each one has its own perks, with some being more remote or having more dramatic landscapes than others.

Puerto Naos
Not everyone would come down to Puerto Naos Beach and think it’s entirely scenic. With a steep, craggy volcanic rock wall behind it, a rocky climb to the shoreline, and minimal plant life, it’s a bit devoid of those ‘tropical’ vibes. However, there is beauty in its dramatic appearance, and the deep sapphire blue of the ocean contrasts the dark, black sand that fills the beach. This is also the largest beach in La Palma, so visitors are almost guaranteed a spot.
Echentive
Also known as ‘Playa Nueva,’ Echentive Beach is the remotest of La Palma’s black sand beaches. At the base of the Teneguía volcano, one can still find evidence of lava flows on its somewhat wild landscape. However, those heading to this beach can also take advantage of its hot springs and various natural pools.

La Zamora
This beach is one that typically sees more tourists since it’s located near a terrace bar and has a colorful landscape thanks to nearby banana fields. This beach does feature a dramatic cliffside where visitors will find the parking lot, and the beach is lined with resorts. It’s also a great place to watch the sunset and offers the best views of all the beaches.
Los Cancajos
This beach is known for its perfect diving locations, but is also great for swimmers thanks to the lava rocks that have been strategically placed to break the tide. It’s smaller than the others but offers plenty of shelter thanks to the craggy volcanic rocks that surround it.

Bajamar
This beach is very popular with the locals and also offers one of the best sunrise views on the island. It feels remote but is nearby some popular cafes and eateries.
Nogales
This beach is best for those who want to explore La Palma’s coastline even further. With various trails along the beach, cliffside treks offer unique vantage points of the ocean. The beach itself can be found at the base of a cliff, making it feel more secluded than it is.
Charco Verde
For those traveling as a family, this beach is the best recommended for kids and adults alike. Its calm waters are great for swimming, and the surrounding flora is very inviting in contrast to the charcoal-black of the beach itself.
No matter which beach a traveler chooses, the black sand landscape of La Palma is sure to leave a lasting impression.

Exploring the Best Beaches on Tenerife
Starting in the North of the island we list the beaches below running counterclockwise. If you’ve never visited Tenerife before it’s good to note that there is a main road that circles the island making it easy to hit multiple beaches in one day. Also, these are our favorite beaches that are easily accessible to all travelers, have decent roads, and don’t require a massive hike to get to!
It’s only right that we start off with one of the best beaches on Tenerife! Just a short drive from the hustle and bustle of Santa Cruz, we were shocked to see a place that looks like it’s straight out of Southeast Asia or the Caribbean.
A rocky barrier protects the beach and soft white sand from the wavy ocean creating a natural lagoon. Also, don’t leave the area without traveling to the lookout above Playa De Las Teresitas for an epic view!
→ Playa De Las Teresitas Location
The black sands of Playa Jardin and Maria Jimenez stretch along the same coast, and from above can even look like one long beach. The waves roll and crash along the shore, but are gentle enough to have some fun swimming in.
One of the things we loved most is how even at a wavy black sand beach the water is still crystal clear! You may be staying on another part of the island, but a day of Tenerife travel and adventure are definitely worth the trip here.
If you’re looking for one of the best spots to grab lunch head to El Nispero. Hidden in the furthest corner of the beach, we were actually swimming in the water when we spotted it.
After working up an appetite in the waves we sat down to what would be one of the best seafood lunches we had on Tenerife. If you go early there is an amazing plate of the day deal. Otherwise the regular menu is well worth the price.
→ Playa Jardin Location
Piscinas Naturales El Caletón
While Piscinas Naturales El Caleton isn’t technically one of the beaches on Tenerife island it’s still an incredible swimming spot! Hitting the natural pools is considered one of the best things to do on Tenerife, and El Caleton is the queen of them all.
Located in the beautiful town of Garachico this area has a surprising past. Long ago it was actually the main port of the Canary Islands, but in the early 1700’s the Trevejo Volcano erupted and destroyed the town. In the 300+ years since it has become a beautifully preserved and historic part of Tenerife.
Typically its booming with travelers during the day, and goes back to being a sleepy fishing village at night. The rock pools in the center of town are the perfect place to soak in the sun and cool off on hot days!
→ Piscinas Naturales El Caleton Location
Los Gigantes is one of the most famous points on the island and actually considered to be one of the most impressive natural wonders in Spain. The massive cliffs tower to the sky so you can easily see how they get the name Acantilados de Los Gigantes or “Cliffs of the Giants.”
Next to the harbor near Los Gigantes is a small black beach with crystal clear water and light waves. This is one of the best views of Los Gigantes that you can get aside from being out on a boat!
→ Playa de los Gigantes Location
While traveling in Tenerife on the south of the island you will find many popular towns that are full of hotels, restaurants, shops, and beaches. These are common for families who are looking to have everything in one place for their vacation.
Additionally, this is where much of the nightlife takes places with late night bars and clubs. Puerto Colon is also the jump off point for boat tours on the island. You can read all about our snorkeling and whale watching tour from here below!

During our time traveling in Tenerife we came across a one of a kind swimming spot. Play Amarilla is hidden among the cliffs of Costa del Silencio, and it’s so small you might even miss it if you don’t know where to look. So what makes this beach so unique?
Well, it’s actually not much of a beach at all! The cliffs to the left hang above each other creating makeshift beach chairs for you to enjoy.
There’s small ladders that go into the rough, but clear waters from the rocks and even a beach bar on the far side. Playa Amarilla is also is known as a great place to snorkel and scuba dive as well!
→ Playa Amarilla Location
→ Playa Amarilla: Tenerife’s Most Unique Swimming Spot
The stunning Playa de la Tejita might just be the most naturally beautiful out of all the beaches on Tenerife. The Golden sand stretches along the coast all the way to Mount Roja in the distance. In late November the wind was whipping and ocean was crashing against the shore, making it too wild to jump in.
However, during the summer this is one of the most popular beaches for people traveling in Tenerife. Don’t miss the 20 minute hike to the top of Mount Roja for an incredible view of Playa de la Tejita as well!

More About Canary Islands
The World : Africa : Spain : Canary Islands
Overview and HistoryThe Canary Islands lie off the west coast of Africa and exist as an autonomous community belonging to Spain.There are seven major islands in the archipelago and one minor island, then several small pointy bits which grumble about their diminutive status. The big ones are Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura, La Palma, Lanzarote, El Hierro, and La Gomera.The whole group is the result of volcanic activity from 60 million years ago, which is why the beaches have black sand for you to crunch along on. There are no active volcanos at the moment, but one never knows. Another way to say it is that these islands are part of the Atlas Mountain range which can be traced across northern Africa.At one point in the 16th century the islands were called “the sugar islands” for their production of cane sugar. The economy has since developed wineries, agriculture and now tourism as principal activity.Getting ThereThe Canary Islands have six airports in total. Here’s a quick reference for the airports. The main international airport is Gran Canaria Airport, the gateway to the islands. It’s 18km south of Las Palmas and has EU, International and Inter-Island terminals.TransportationHighway maintenance to the Canary Islands is sorely lacking, ha ha. Ferry service connects the islands to each other, but you can also take a small plane to hop between them.On the islands you can rent a car but be sure to carry your passport and license with you all the time. People ride bikes and take the guagua bus to get around. (It’s pronounced “wa-wa”.) Bus schedules can be infrequent or sporadic. Tenerife and Gran Canaria have impressive public transport systems that cover most of their islands.People and CultureThe Canary currency is the Euro; the islands are one of the farthest outlaying regions of the Euro zone.The culture is undoubtedly Spanish, but the mainland custom of kissing on both cheeks when you say hello can be abbreviated to only one kiss. You need quick reflexes to get it right. There’s an accent that’s a little bit different from mainland, and not quite the same as South American spanish either. The saying is that islanders talk “with potatos in their mouth” because of their lazy-sounding pronunciation.Things to do, RecommendationsHere’s a basic look at the main islands. The way we see it, if you need directions for how to have fun on a tropical island full of fruit and fish, you’re beyond our help.The largest island is Tenerife with about two thousand square kilometers and a wide variety of plant life and terrain. It is home to the highest point “in Spain”, the volcano El Teide at 3718 meters. Tenerife has excellent weather all year round, with a wide variety of terrain and vegetation including crops such as bananas, tomatos and potatos.La Palma does not have very many beaches, and they are not very long. Two popular ones are in Puerto Naos on the west side, and Los Cancajos on the east. Most of the island is a biological reserve. It’s known as “the green island”; come here for the mountains, sweet bananas and vineyards.On Gran Canaria you can choose from endless sandy beaches, dunes, mountains and also lush green scenery. This island is home to more than half the population of the Canary Islands.Fuertaventura has the oldest history. Homer mentioned it in his brief travel guide called “The Odyssey.” Its name may come from the expression “What a great adventure!”, or possibly, “strong wind.” It’s only separated from continental Africa by a narrow channel. Fuertaventura has the longest of all the beaches, and wonderful fine sand. Lanzarote is a Biosphere Reserve under UNESCO declaration, and comprises one of the six universal models of sustainable development according to the World Tourism Organization. Lanzarote is the farthest East of the major islands and has a year-round average temperature of 22 degrees C.La Gomera sports a National Park with dense forestation, crossed by deep ravines and surrounded by a perimeter of cliffs along most of the coast. Islanders have a special whistling language to communicate across the gorges in the forest.Text by Steve Smith.

20) Black Sand Beach, California
Hidden within the San Francisco’s Golden Gate Recreation Area, this black sand beach is one of a kind in America. This beach looks like it doesn’t belong to this shore as black sand beaches are natural phenomena related to volcanic areas. And that is what makes this place so special.
The dark sand comes from iron minerals that surround the 20 miles long coastline. Regardless of its beauty, you can’t swim there due to the heavy waves. In fact, there are signs all over the place warning people not to dive in the water.
However, it is a cool place to chill with friends or family. Explore the area by taking one of these awesome San Francisco walking tours.

The volcanic rock and ground lava give the beach a distinctive dark color. Whichever Island you choose to visit, you’ll feel relaxed. Also, you can get to Albay from the capital city Manila by direct flight or around 10 hours by bus or car.

Furthermore, it is simple to reach. You may fly into Manado and then travel for about two hours to Tangkoko, which has breathtaking scenery along the way before reaching the black sand beach.

17) Karekare Beach, New Zealand
New Zealand also has a place on this list and northern Auckland offers one magical black sand beach. Karekare is a non-conventional beach as you get here hiking through steep ridges that surround the whole area. But it is definitely worth the effort once you are there.
This is one of the black sand beaches where surfers and risky swimmers pave their way. However, it is dangerous as the waves strike the beach violently.
If you are planning to visit Karekare on a family trip, authorities advise you to first know about the place to avoid any dangerous situations.
In any case, this is a gorgeous beach that deserves your time. Want to know more about this remote place? So go check out an amazing tour that GuideYourGuide has around this area.

16) Papenoo Beach, Tahiti
Can you imagine how is a beach in French Polynesia? Exactly, amazing. Papenoo is in this ranking for a reason and is because it’s one of the nicest black sand beaches.
This is not your typical white and light sand beach that crowds the whole country. Indeed, volcanic materials make this place different.
Locals say this beach has to be your first step before going through The Papenoo Valley, which is a jungle on the island of Tahiti that offers incredible mountainous landscapes.
What else can you ask for in French Polynesia?
15) Playa Negra, Puerto Rico
Did you think white sand beaches are the only ones in the Caribbean Sea? Think twice! Puerto Rico shows you that black sand beaches can also be a primary destination in the Caribbean area.
This black sand beach in Vieques is the result of volcanic materials beneath the surface, which cause this amazing dark tone. As it is in the Caribbean zone, the sea is clear and totally available to swim and spend a good time with friends and family.
What’s even funnier is that many locals were totally unaware of Vieques’ existence until 2004, when more and more Puerto Ricans started noticing this gem in their own country.
They named it “Playa Negrita”, and it also shows you don’t have to go so far to see a natural treasure.

14) Kamari Beach, Greece
Greece is home to Western Civilization, it offers a rich cultural history and wonderful heritage. However, this country also gives you the opportunity to see awe-inspiring beaches, such as the black sand beach at Kamari, Santorini.
Normally you would think of white sand beaches when it comes to Greece, but it turns out that also offers one of the fanciest black sand beaches. Santorini rests on the rim of a volcano, which is the reason for the glimmering black sands on Perissa.
Both locals and tourists make a journey to Santorini only to witness this unique place in Greece. Looking to visit Greece?
Check out these quiet Greek islands so you can avoid sweaty partiers messing up your trip. If you like partying, then you can check out these top Greek party islands.

13) Soufriere, St. Lucia
This time the Caribbean Sea brings up another treasure. But in this case, this black sand beach is even more difficult to know about due to St. Lucia’s lack of awareness.
In fact, black sand beaches are what make St. Lucia a different place from the other Caribbean countries because it offers views that you rarely see. It’s amazing.
Not for nothing, Soufriere Beach is one of the main attractions to locals. Every year St. Lucia’s residents try to put Soufriere on the map so more people can appreciate this beautiful place.

12) Marigot, Grenada
The last of the black sand beaches from the Caribbean region on this list, and by far the most difficult to get to. You find Marigot in St. George, a northern city in the town of Concord. Once you are there, expect a challenging hike until you reach the beach.
But Marigot is on this list for a reason. Once you make the stroll through Grenada’s dense jungle you will arrive in one of the most lonely places on the entire planet.
No noise, probably no other humans around other than you and your crew. Certainly, you will feel that you are far away from everything.
That for itself is more than a good reason to visit this remarkable beach.

11) Panalu’u Beach, Hawaii
The first or many Hawaiian black sand beaches on this ranking. It couldn’t be another one than Panalu’u Beach, located on the Big Island of Hawaii. The exotic dark sandy comes from basalt and lava flooding into the ocean. When you see this beauty, you will feel all the journey is worth it.
The beach is rocky and in some seasons of the year is dangerous to swim. For this reason, authorities warn tourists to stay awake. The downside of this natural beauty is that some endangered species exist, such as the green sea turtle, hawksbill turtle, or the Hawaiian monk seal.
Locals are doing a titanic effort to preserve their endemic animals. This is why you must be respectful of the area, you are here to relax and become one with nature.

The black sand beach only adds a piece of attractiveness to this place. What’s more incredible is that here you will be surrounded by over thirty-thousand pine trees as well as Mount Fuji, the highest mountain in Japan in the background.

Black sand on beaches is uncommon and unique, which is why these beaches attract thousands of tourists each year.
Examples of some of the most well-known beaches with black sand are Lafayette Beach in Tahiti, Playa Jardín in the Canary Islands, Punalu’u Beach in Hawaii, and the beach of Spiaggia di Ficogrande in Italy, and Kamari Beach in Greece.
What gives black sand beaches their color?
The black color of the sand is largely due to the massive amount of volcanic minerals it has that are broken down over the ages. The minerals are also high in iron content which gives off black color.

Tenerife is known for its natural beauty and for being home to the tallest point in Spain – Mount Teide. Teide is the world’s third highest volcanic structure and it has a height of 7,500 meters, if measured from the ocean floor.
Due to the volcanic nature of the island, there are many beautiful black sand beaches in Tenerife. Some of them are more remote while others are located near big cities.
I spent one week on the island, searching for the best beaches and tourist attractions. After visiting some unique and breathtaking black beaches in Tenerife, I decided to share with you my favorites. Here they are!

1. Best black sand beaches in Tenerife
1.1 Playa de los Gigantes
I have to admit that Playa de los Guios, also known as Playa de los Gigantes is one of my favorite beaches in Tenerife. Bordered by tall cliffs, this beautiful black sand beach is about 100 meters long.
From the beach, you can admire the majestic cliffs. This black sand beach in Tenerife is perfect for swimming, but be careful, sometimes the currents are powerful.
There is a lifeguard, showers and changing rooms at Los Gigantes Beach. If you get hungry, you can choose one of the many nearby bars and restaurants.
1.2 Playa de Benijo
If you’re looking for the best black sand beaches in Tenerife, you have to visit Benijo Beach. This beach is located in the northeastern part of the island, near one of the most incredible villages on the island – Taganana.
What makes Playa de Benijo special are the huge boulders rising from the sea and the tall cliffs guarding the beach. The best time to visit this place is at sunset.
Playa de Benijo is one of the unspoilt beaches in Tenerife. There are no beach bars, restaurants, sunbeds, lifeguards, showers or toilets here. It’s the perfect place to enjoy the beauty that Mother Nature created.
1.3 Playa El Bollullo
Located near Puerto de la Cruz, Playa El Bollullo is one of the best black sand beaches in northern Tenerife. It’s a place known mainly by locals, a hidden gem yet unknown to tourists.
To get to Bollullo Beach, you’ll first have to drive on a narrow road and then go down a set of stairs. There is a restaurant on the beach and another one nearby, in case you get thirsty or hungry.
I loved Bolloullo Beach because it’s a bit more remote and the views are pretty spectacular. It’s the perfect choice for those looking to escape the chaos of big cities.
1.4 Playa Jardin
Another beautiful black sand beach in northern Tenerife is Playa Jardin. This beach is actually composed of 3 smaller beaches – Playa del Castillo, Playa Chica and Playa Maria Jimenez.
Out of the three, I loved the most Maria Jimenez Beach. In the backdrop you can admire a row of colorful houses and the mountains. We stopped for about an hour to take photos and even if the weather was terrible, the view was still beautiful.
1.5 Playa de Fanabe
If you’re looking for black sand beaches in southern Tenerife, you have to stop at Playa de Fanabe. We discovered this beach on our first day in Tenerife and we saw the most incredible sunset here.
The beach is about 600 meters long, perfect for a relaxing walk at sunset. There are countless restaurants and souvenir shops nearby, making it the perfect destination for those who want to go to a beach with all the facilities.
If you have time, make sure to visit the nearby Playa del Duque. This is a golden sand beach, perfect for swimming. It’s a bit smaller than Playa de Fanabe, but equally beautiful.
1.6 Playa de Las Gaviotas
Located near the more popular Playa de Las Teresitas, Las Gaviotas Beach is one the best beaches near Santa Cruz de Tenerife. You can reach this beach by car, but first make sure to stop for a few minutes at Mirador Gaviotas.
From this viewpoint, you can see both the black sand Las Gaviotas Beach and the golden sand Las Teresitas Beach. It’s one of the best viewpoints on the island!
View of Las Teresitas Beach
If you’re planning to visit Las Gaviotas, keep in mind that nudism is accepted here. There are no facilities at this beach, making it the perfect place to reconnect with nature.
1.7 Playa Amarilla
Are you looking for hidden beaches in Tenerife? Visit Playa Amarilla, one of the natural wonders in Tenerife. This beach is only about 50 meters long and is covered in black pebbles. However, you can lay your towel directly on the curved golden rocks.
Amarilla Beach is an excellent spot for both swimming and snorkeling. The water is crystal-clear. There are no facilities at this beach except for a small beach bar that sells drinks.
If you’re looking for unique places in Tenerife, add Playa Amarilla to your itinerary. You’ll love the rock formations here.
1.8 Playa de Punta Larga
Located just a short drive away from Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Punta Larga beach is one of the best black sand beaches in Tenerife. It’s not very crowded and the water is perfect for swimming.
This beach has all the amenities you need. It has showers, toilets and there are lots of restaurants and bars nearby. If you’re looking for a beach with beautiful views, this is the one!
1.9 Playa del Socorro
Located in Los Realejos, Playa del Socorro is one of the only two beaches in Tenerife adapted for disabled people. This beach has also been awarded the Blue Flag, meaning that it has all the facilities needed and clean water.
Here you can find showers, toilets, changing rooms and lifeguards. The beach also has a few areas with WiFi.
Socorro beach is a popular destination for surf enthusiasts. The beach is also perfect for swimming, when the waves aren’t too big. This is one of the best beaches in Tenerife, a place that has all the facilities you’ll need.
1.10 Playa de la Arena
This beautiful Tenerife black sand beach is located in Puerto de Santiago. This beach is relatively small but is one of the most popular destinations in the area, together with the incredible Charco el Diablo.
At Arena Beach, you’ll find sunbeds for rent, showers, toilets and lots of restaurants nearby. Since this is a popular spot, I recommend arriving here early in the morning if you want to rent a sunbed.
While in the area, stop for an hour at the nearby Charco el Diablo. The volcanic rock formations here form incredible shapes and natural pools, perfect to refresh yourself.
Charco el Diablo
-> Other must-see places in Tenerife:
- Climb Mount Teide – The tallest mountain in Tenerife
- Take a whale watching cruise
- Siam Park – The world’s best water park
2. Why are the beaches in Tenerife covered in black sand?
Most of the beaches in Tenerife are black sand beaches due to the volcanos in the area. Over the years, due to many volcanic eruptions, the ocean crushed the volcanic rocks into fine black sand.
There are also a few golden sand beaches in Tenerife such as Las Teresitas Beach and El Duque Beach. The sand here has been imported from Sahara, to make the beaches more appealing to tourists. All the natural beaches in Tenerife are covered in black sand.
Bollullo Beach
3. Where to stay in Tenerife
There are thousands of hotels in Tenerife and finding the perfect one, to meet your criteria might be challenging. That’s why I’ve been searching for the best accommodation on the island, for every budget. Here are my recommendations.
- Budget – Atlantic Holiday Hotel – amazing ocean view, beautiful modern studio, good location, friendly staff, good amenities
- Mid-Range – Labranda Bahia – beautiful pools, good location, spacious rooms and good services, friendly staff, all-inclusive
- Luxury – Fantasia Bahia – perfect for couples and families, excellent services, all-inclusive, huge & modern rooms, beautiful pools
4. How to get around Tenerife
To explore Tenerife, I recommend renting a car. It gives you the freedom to spend as much time as you like in each place you visit. We rented our car from Oasis for about 35 EUR per day and we were very satisfied with their services.
Tenerife also has a good system of public transport. There are many buses running between the big cities of the island.
5. Final thoughts
I hope that I’ve inspired you to visit at least some of these incredible black sand beaches in Tenerife. Scattered from south to north, these beaches will definitely steal your heart.
While in Tenerife, make sure to also visit Mount Teide, the top attraction on the island. I recommend buying your cable car tickets in advance, to make sure that you catch a spot on your preferred date.
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask me in the comments section below. May the travel bug bite you.

✈ Black beaches in Tenerife. We fly from stereotypes to where the sun, sea and black sand are
What associations do we have with the word “beach”? The sultry blue sky, merging with the bottomless azure of the gentle sea, trimmed with a snow-white frill of sand. .. But there are also such coastal strips on our planet, to which the term “paradise” is applicable only with a very big stretch. Let’s talk here about the most, perhaps, the most surreal-looking borders of land and sea – black sand beaches.
Where does the black sand come from on the beaches?
Black beach sand differs from classic white not only in color, but also in its origin and composition. If white sea sand is of organic origin: it is a “processing product” of shells and skeletons of other marine life by centuries-old millstones of sea waves, then black sand has an inorganic composition. This is the result of the contact of lava erupting from the vent of the volcano with sea water. Hot black basaltic lava flows, having reached the cold ocean, explode, breaking into pieces, and time and waves complete their grinding into sand. Thus, black beaches can only be found where there are volcanoes. Introducing the most famous black beaches of the planet.
Black beaches of Tenerife (Canary Islands, Spain)
The Canary Islands are a very popular resort among Russian tourists in particular. But not everyone, having arrived here for the first time, is ready for such an unexpected sight as a long graphite-colored coastal strip. Three of the most famous black sand island beaches are located in Tenerife, the largest of the seven islands of the Canary archipelago in the Atlantic.
Playa de la Arena
Playa de la Arena is primarily a health resort for numerous tourists seeking relief from ailments. The black sand of volcanic origin is saturated with minerals and is considered healing. He heals diseases of the musculoskeletal system, heals inflammatory processes in the joints, relieving them of excessive salt deposits. Also, such sand, coupled with the healing sea air, has a beneficial effect on the respiratory system. Having visited this unusual black beach, there is a great chance to leave chronic rhinitis and bronchitis in the past.
Also, Playa de la Arena beach is a favorite vacation spot for young families with children who seek not for wild fun, but for tranquility and peaceful surroundings.
Playa de la Arena cannot boast of an abundance of entertainment venues and events. This is more a place for a peaceful holiday, for gaining the health of the soul and body and complete merging with the luxurious nature surrounding the beach.
Playa Jardin
The luxurious black beach of Playa Jardín (which means “garden beach” in Spanish) is located in the northwest of Tenerife, not far from the port of Puerto de la Cruz. It is noteworthy that this beach is man-made: it was created according to the project of local artist Cesar Manrique, who, unfortunately, did not have to live to see his masterpiece come to life.
Black, bizarre rocks divide this artificially constructed beach into three small bays. Waterfalls run from the steep slopes of the rocks, dropping splashes on a multi-colored carpet of bright colors framing the dark sand with a silky sheen. The black dunes frozen in waves smoothly flow into the rows of palm trees on a truly grandiose scale. The total area of the artificial beach is as much as 17,000 square meters!
And just a few steps away from this unique tropical garden is the famous “Loro Parque”, the home of the world’s largest family of parrots. The tourist will be amazed by the local giant aquarium with sharks and the richest collection of orchids.
Playa Jardin invites you to a serene rest and unhurried contemplation of the surrounding paradise splendor. Lovers of the most beautiful landscapes will find here what they are looking for – magical peace.
Playa Jardin is a multiple winner of the Blue Flag global award given to beaches for environmental safety and cleanliness.
Playa San Marcos
In the northwest of Tenerife, near the picturesque town of Icod de los Vinnos, there is the most secluded bay you can imagine. San Marcos Beach is surrounded on all sides by sheer cliffs that reliably protect its visitors from gusty winds walking in this area of the island.
On a small well-groomed beach, kids swarm, building black sand castles, while their parents carelessly bask under the canopy of beach umbrellas. The very air of these places seems to be saturated with peace and well-being.
San Marcos beach is far from the bustle and not crowded on weekdays. But with the onset of the weekend, the beach comes to life, filled with laughter and jokes with the influx of cheerful tourists. On Saturdays and Sundays, it can be difficult to find a place and a free sunbed on the beach. Therefore, it makes sense to take care of your own comfort ahead of time and “stake out” a secluded corner for yourself from dawn.
Tenerife is an island with an unusually comfortable climate. In January, the air warms up to +21 degrees, and in August it does not rise above +28. Thus, all the black beaches of Tenerife are open to guests all year round. It is only important to remember that black sand tends to warm up quickly, and during the daytime it will not be very comfortable to wander barefoot on the black beach. Therefore, it would be useful to take beach sandals with you on a trip.

Where does the black sand come from on the beaches? Black sand is a rarity.
In composition and origin, it differs from classic white. Marine organic matter has a light color: shells and calcium remains of deep-seated inhabitants, ground and rolled out by the waves of ebbs and flows.
Black sand has an inorganic volcanic nature. It acquired its structure over more than one hundred years. Boiling basaltic lava erupted from the crater of the volcano and flowed into the ocean. Cold waters destroyed the red-hot rock. Time and waves for a long time continued to crush the basalt that had crumbled into pieces.
Islands formed by volcanoes are like living organisms. In their bowels there is a constant movement of rock, which is capable of breaking out at any moment and flooding the land surface. Black beaches are at risk of dying under the thickness of hot magma.
Frozen basalt and obsidian will not soon be crushed by the ocean wave. Therefore, tourists are in a hurry to enjoy the unusual shores covered with dark crumbs of rocks.
Spain has many black sand beaches.
Volcanic sand has healing properties. Black color is given to it by heavy minerals of dark shades, which, unlike light rocks, are not washed out by salt water from its structure. The composition includes more than 50 different substances, the main of which are magnetite, hematite and ilmenite.
Black sand, in addition to the usual thermal conductivity, has magnetic properties. It helps in the treatment of the musculoskeletal system. Due to its unusual composition, dark sand warms up in the sun more than light sand. Therefore, in the daytime on the beach you need to wear shoes so as not to get thermal burns.
Overview of black beaches in Spain
The Mediterranean coast is associated with palm trees, cacti, pine trees (“La Pineda”) and a turquoise sea bordered by white and golden sands. But Spain is an amazing country. Every time it opens from an unexpected side.
Black beaches stagger the imagination, seem unreal, unearthly. They are rare in the world. Therefore, having come to rest in Spain, you must definitely visit the unusual coast in order to take with you photographs of amazing beauty.
The most popular volcanic islands of the kingdom are the Canaries. They have gained tourist popularity due to the mild subtropical climate, picturesque natural landscapes and exotic fauna.
Black beaches seem amazing.
The beach season in Spain lasts from April to October, and in the Canary Islands it does not stop all year round.
Tourists fly here not so much for the sea and the sun, but because of the unusual graphite-colored coastal landscape.
In Tenerife
Tenerife is the largest of the 7 volcanic islands of the Canaries in the Atlantic Ocean. This is an island paradise with charming beaches and a wonderfully comfortable climate. In January, the air temperature rises to +21°C, and in August it never gets hotter than +28°C.
Volcanic island of Tenerife.
Even in summer the water in the ocean does not warm up above +25°C and is not calm, despite the presence of breakwaters. There are no poisonous jellyfish in coastal waves, but there are plenty of sea urchins.
All Tenerife beaches are municipal and free, and there are more than 70 of them on the island. Many are marked with the Blue Flag, which indicates their cleanliness and safety. There are no closed coastal areas on the island.
Due to its volcanic origin, Tenerife has not always lived up to the standards of a luxury holiday. The beauty of most coastlines was created artificially. A huge amount of sand was brought from the Sahara. Part of the coast was left in its original form.
All beaches in Tenerife are free.
Therefore, the local beaches are different from each other. Some are covered with pebbles. Others are white or black sand. Most have modern infrastructure: showers, toilets, sun loungers and bars. There are quite “wild”, rocky shores, untouched by civilization.
Black beaches are the hallmark of Tenerife.
The most popular of them:

Lago Verde
Spanish “Lago Verde” – a beach with history. It is located on the island of Lanzarote – the fourth largest of the Canaries. In the western part is the Timanfaya National Park, which is called the “Land of Fire-Breathing Mountains”.
Once its territory was green and looked like a blooming paradise. But 200 years ago, a volcano woke up, and red-hot lava flooded the fertile lands. Lanzarote has become a lifeless rocky desert.

The best black sand beaches in Tenerife
Nothing surprises us in our life, but black sand beaches in the Canary Islands cause a lot of questions from people, the main ones are “Why is the sand black?”, “A does it get dirty?”, “Can you show the photo?”
We decided to prepare a short video and call it like this: “ Collection of black sand beaches on the island of Tenerife “. Let’s see why the beach sand in Tenerife is black?
Why are there black sand beaches in Tenerife?
Of course, there are many versions, there is even an idea that the Canary Islands are the “remains” of Atlantis. But everything ingenious is simple: the black sand of Tenerife is the result of volcanic eruptions, because the island is volcanic, and the current sand is nothing more than a fine volcanic rock.
Coarse fractions of sand are similar to heel pumice, but they are not gray, but, of course, black. Over time, large black stones break the ocean and turn them into fine sand, which is strongly eaten into the skin. By the way, we recommend that you do not wear light-colored swimwear on black sand beaches for this very reason: do not wash it later.
Black volcanic sand is the hallmark of Tenerife and all the Canary Islands. Black to black is different, and although all such beaches are considered black sand beaches, they still have their own sand on them.
Rumor has it that black volcanic sand has healing properties and it is necessary to lie down on the sand after the ocean and get dirty.
Where are the beaches with black volcanic sand?
The best black sand beaches are located in the south of the island and in the north:
1. Playa de la Arena
2. Playa Jardin
3. Playa de Martianes (Puerto de la Cruz East)
4. Playa de los Cristianos
5. Playa de las Vistas
6. Small beach near the town of Garachico
7. Nice Martian black sand beach in the town of La Caleta de Interián
This is not a complete list of black volcanic sand beaches , but enough for your trip: there will be plenty of unusual photos, and we will share our photos with you.
The most beautiful black sand beach on the island of Tenerife
I would like to see the northern part of the island, namely the town of La Caleta de Interian, that’s for sure – a mystical beach. We were on the island in December, and, apparently, in winter, the northern part is viewed by rare tourists. This beach can truly be called the best of the black family. Majestic mountains, beautiful and expensive hotels, elongated palm trees and the sound of the ocean, a cosmic landscape, but only this is water, not the sky, although it looks like it. Super! It was already evening, but we decided to swim. Watch the video: we filmed a short review. There is also a photo, isn’t it beautiful?
Black sand beach La Caleta de Interián is the first place in our ranking. If you are going on an excursion to Garachico and the Dragon Tree, be sure to visit this mystical place. And in the evening, you can have a delicious dinner there in the fish restaurant El Mundial 82.
Volcanic black sand – where else to see this beauty?
There is a place on the island called Los Gigantes, and there is a beautiful beach with black sand, which is surrounded by giant rocks, apparently because of these rocks this majestic name came from. On this beach in Los Gigantes, it is very good to watch sunsets: you can arrive early and combine viewing with an excursion or a hike in the Masca Gorge – there, by the way, there is very fine black sand.

Playa Jardín invites you to relax and unhurried contemplation of the surrounding paradise splendor. Lovers of the most beautiful landscapes will find here what they are looking for – magical peace.
Playa Jardin is a multiple winner of the Blue Flag global award given to beaches for environmental safety and cleanliness.
Playa San Marcos
In the northwest of Tenerife, near the picturesque town of Icod de Los Vinnos, there is the most secluded bay you can imagine. San Marcos Beach is surrounded on all sides by sheer cliffs that reliably protect its visitors from gusty winds walking in this area of the island.
On a small, well-groomed beach, kids scurry around building black sand castles while their parents carelessly bask in the shade of beach umbrellas. The very air of these places seems to be saturated with peace and well-being.
San Marcos beach is far from the hustle and bustle on weekdays. But with the onset of the weekend, the beach comes to life, filled with laughter and jokes with the influx of cheerful tourists. On Saturdays and Sundays, it can be difficult to find a place and a free sunbed on the beach. Therefore, it makes sense to take care of your own comfort ahead of time and “stake out” a secluded corner for yourself from dawn.
Tenerife is an island with an unusually comfortable climate. In January, the air warms up to +21 degrees, and in August it does not rise above +28. Thus, all the black beaches of Tenerife are open to guests all year round. It is only important to remember that black sand tends to warm up quickly, and during the daytime it will not be very comfortable to wander barefoot on the black beach. Therefore, it would be useful to take beach sandals with you on a trip.

We have compiled a collection of the most beautiful black sand beaches in Tenerife. Here and El Medano, and El Boyuyo, Taganana and Socorro, Playa Jardin and Playa Arena!
For the first time on the beach of a volcanic island, a tourist experiences a certain culture shock. So black sand does not meet the stereotype of a tropical paradise.
Clear blue water, snow-white foam, growing palm trees – it’s all there. However, instead of the usual golden shores, black sand shimmers with silver in the sun.
In different parts of Tenerife there are beautiful beaches with healing volcanic sand. In this article, we have collected the most interesting and beautiful. Be sure to visit at least a few of them during your vacation in Tenerife.
Playa Jardin
One of the most famous black sand beaches is Playa Jardin. Playa Jardin is located in the western part of the resort of Puerto de la Cruz. The author of the project is the world-famous Cesar Manrique, an architect and artist from Lanzarote. A palm alley and a large cactus garden grow along Hardin Beach. As conceived by Cesar Manrique, the beach is not enclosed by a pier, so there are often big waves here. Photographing them is a real pleasure.
Playa de Martianes
In the eastern part of Puerto de la Cruz is the beach of Playa de Martianes. Playa Martianez is an unprotected natural beach with black volcanic sand. Like Playa Jardin, it is a popular surf spot.
Playa de los Cristianos and Playa de las Vistas
Los Cristianos is a resort in the south of the island. It is always full of tourists, who are attracted by two gray sand beaches: Playa de los Cristianos and Playa de las Vistas. Playa de los Cristianos is located in the water area of the port, so there are fewer vacationers here. Playa de las Vistas is the largest beach in the south of Tenerife. It is well equipped and very beautiful.
Playa de la Arena
For 20 years, Playa de la Arena has been the winner of the blue ribbon for purity and beauty. Many consider the volcanic beach of Playa de la Arena to be the most beautiful in the southwestern part of Tenerife. Playa de la Arena is located in a natural rocky bay. It attracts tourists from all over the south with its black-black Canarian sand. The beach is not crowded only in the early morning. True, on a sunny day you just can’t walk on it – just skipping, it’s so hot.
El Medano
Playa del Medano is a beach in the southeast of Tenerife. This is an ideal place for kitesurfing and windsurfing in Tenerife – the wind here blows almost continuously. Equipment for kitesurfing and windsurfing can be rented from schools and rentals on the coast.
Parade of colorful sails and kites soaring in the sky – this is how the beach in El Medano appears 300 days a year.
El Boyuyo
And for lovers of untouched beauty and tropical thickets of banana trees in the north there is El Boyuyo beach. This is one of the most beautiful, but not the most equipped beach in Tenerife with black volcanic sand. There is no good road to the ocean, just as there are no umbrellas and sunbeds on the beach itself. Therefore, you can stay here on any day, as there are few tourists.
Los Gigantes
Los Gigantes has a beautiful black sand beach surrounded by rocks. It is located under a mountain with villas and apartments, next to the port of the same name. It’s great to watch sunsets on the beach in Los Gigantes! Can be combined with an excursion or a trip to the Maska gorge.
Benijo
Want to visit even more secluded black sand beaches? Then go to Taganana in Anaga. There are beautiful places here: Benijo, Almaciga.
Socorro
Another very beautiful black sand beach in the north of Tenerife is Socorro. One of the famous surf spots on our island. There is good parking, there is a small cafe and lifeguards work. But, be careful and follow the flow.
Beaches with “signature” black sand from the volcano are not only in Tenerife. On the western Canary Islands of El Hierro, La Palma and La Gomera, you will certainly find beaches formed from dark basalt rocks. Even if all the stories about the usefulness and healing properties of black volcanic beaches are just a myth, it is useful for everyone to relax on the ocean and recharge with the energy of warm sands.
Have a great time on the beaches of Tenerife!

The best black sand beaches in Tenerife
Nothing surprises us in our lives, but black sand beaches in the Canary Islands raise a lot of questions from people, the main of which are “Why is the sand black?”, “Does it get dirty?”, “Can you show a photo? »
We decided to make a short video and call it: “ Collection of black sand beaches in Tenerife “. Let’s see why the beach sand in Tenerife is black?
Why are there black sand beaches in Tenerife?
Of course, there are many versions, there is even an idea that the Canary Islands are the “remains” of Atlantis. But everything ingenious is simple: the black sand of Tenerife is the result of volcanic eruptions, because the island is volcanic, and the current sand is nothing more than fine volcanic rock.
Coarse fractions of sand are similar to heel pumice, but they are not gray, but, of course, black. Over time, large black stones break the ocean and turn them into fine sand, which is strongly eaten into the skin. By the way, we recommend that you do not wear light-colored swimwear on black sand beaches for this very reason: do not wash it later.
Black volcanic sand is the hallmark of Tenerife and all the Canary Islands. Black to black is different, and although all such beaches are considered black sand beaches, they still have their own sand on them.
Rumor has it that black volcanic sand has healing properties and it is necessary to lie down on the sand after the ocean and get dirty.
Where are the beaches with black volcanic sand, list
In fact, there are a lot of these beaches here, it is more difficult to find a bright coast, since sand from the Sahara desert is usually brought to such beaches.
The best black sand beaches are located in the south of the island and in the north:
1. Playa de la Arena (Playa de la Arena)
2. Playa Jardin (Playa Jardin)
3. Playa de Martianez (Eastern part Puerto de la Cruz)
4. Playa de los Cristianos
5. Playa de las Vistas
6. Small beach near the town of Garachico
7. Nice Martian black sand beach in La Caleta de Interián
This is not a complete list of black volcanic sand beaches, but enough for your trip: there will be plenty of unusual photos, and we will share our photos with you .
The most beautiful black sand beach on the island of Tenerife
I would like to see the northern part of the island, namely the town of La Caleta de Interian, that’s for sure – a mystical beach. We were on the island in December, and, apparently, in winter, the northern part is viewed by rare tourists. This beach can truly be called the best of the black family. Majestic mountains, beautiful and expensive hotels, elongated palm trees and the sound of the ocean, a cosmic landscape, but only this is water, not the sky, although it looks like it. Super! It was already evening, but we decided to swim. Watch the video: we filmed a short review. There is also a photo, isn’t it beautiful?
Black sand beach La Caleta de Interián is the first place in our ranking. If you are going on an excursion to Garachico and the Dragon Tree, be sure to visit this mystical place. And in the evening, you can have a delicious dinner there in the fish restaurant El Mundial 82.
Volcanic black sand – where else to see this beauty?
There is a place on the island called Los Gigantes, and there is a beautiful beach with black sand, which is surrounded by giant rocks, apparently because of these rocks this majestic name came from. On this beach in Los Gigantes, it is very good to watch sunsets: you can arrive early and combine viewing with an excursion or a hike in the Masca Gorge – there, by the way, there is very fine black sand.
Thank you very much for reading us, thank you for your attention we are pleased to give you a virtual tour of the black sand beaches of Tenerife . Follow us on Instagram and travel with us!

Lovers of sunshine and fertile sea elements prefer golden beaches with clean sand. Getting into the land of their dreams, the Canary Islands, many tourists freeze in surprise at the sight of a long coastal strip in ash-graphite tones.
But these black-eyed resorts in the north-west of Tenerife keep a great secret when the rebellious elements escaped from the pointed rocks and fell in hot lava on the ancient settlements. Over the millennia, blue winds, abundant moisture and streams of sunlight have crushed, dried up and turned volcanic rock into fine dust. And today, Tenerife’s black sand beaches are a unique and infinitely useful creation of nature.
Playa de la Arena welcomes guests
Black sand is rich in minerals and heals diseases of the musculoskeletal system. It heals inflammatory processes in the joints, relieves them of excessive salt deposition. Volcanic sand has a beneficial effect on fractures and osteochondrosis, reducing the recovery time. Chronic rhinitis and tonsillitis, bronchitis and pharyngitis are a thing of the past.
Playa Arena is a health resort for numerous tourists suffering from getting rid of ailments. This is a favorite place for young families with kids who do not strive for unbridled fun, but dream of peace of mind. To protect delicate skin from the rays of the sun, parents are offered umbrellas, awnings and goggles for a small fee.
Experienced travelers call to bury themselves in the black sands of the beach after 4 pm and no more than 5-7 minutes. The “healing session” must be completed by immersion in the gentle waters of the Atlantic, followed by a bath in the shower. Black sand warms up quickly, so it is advisable to walk along it in socks or golfs.
Playa Arena cannot boast of an abundance of entertainment events. This is a place to relax, to find the inner harmony of the soul and body and merge with the divine nature. Romantics and poets, artists and photographers capture amazing moments of admiring the beauty of a tropical sunset in order to transfer it to canvas or a unique photograph.
Tenerife is an island of blooming spring, and Playa Arena is open to guests all year round. In January, the air warms up to 21 degrees Celsius, and in August it does not fall below +28. The nearest hotel can be reached in 10-15 minutes to dissolve in the coolness of the room with a refreshing drink in hand.
Playa Jardín enchants with beauty
This delightful resort is like an evergreen garden. It is located in the northwest of Tenerife, not far from Puerto de la Cruz. This embodied beauty was created according to the project of the artist and connoisseur of the beautiful Cesar Manrique, who did not manage to live and enjoy the charming masterpiece.
The artificially constructed beach is divided by quaint rocks of volcanic origin into three cozy bays. Waterfalls cascade down steep slopes, leaving bright splashes on colorful flowers framing the silky dark sand.
Playa Jardin invites you to unhurried relaxation and contemplation of the surrounding splendor. Lovers of exciting landscapes find magical peace here. For 5 euros, you can get an umbrella and a sun lounger, take a shower and pay tribute to the Canarian cuisine in a local restaurant.
Every day from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. , lifeguards are closely watching the vacationers, ready to help and protect them from high, threatening waves. For environmental safety and cleanliness, Playa Jardin has repeatedly received the Blue Flag award.
The undulating sands of the beach flow smoothly into a grandiose garden of coconut and banana trees covering an area of about 17,000 square meters. A few steps from the unique tropical garden is the famous Loro Park. The most talkative, noisy and largest family of parrots in the world lives here. The giant shark aquarium and the richest collection of delicate orchids are amazing.
Playa San Marcos. Untouched beauty
In the northwest of Tenerife , in the center of the picturesque town of Icod de los Vinnos, there is the coziest cove imaginable. San Marcos is surrounded by sheer cliffs to protect its inhabitants from gusty winds.
Kids build fairytale castles out of pieces of volcanic rock. Their parents indulge in delicious idleness in the shade of rented umbrellas and awnings. A few cafes and restaurants invite you to taste national cuisine. The air is permeated with peace and tranquility.
San Marcos Beach does not have its own car park. But the car can be left in any parking lot in the nearby town without showing anxiety and excitement.
San Marcos, far from the hustle and bustle, is not crowded on weekdays. But it comes to life and is filled with jokes and laughter on Sunday, when it is difficult to find a place and a free sunbed from the influx of cheerful tourists. Therefore, on this day, you should take care of your rest in advance and choose a cozy corner in the beautiful hours of dawn.
Tenerife’s black sand beaches are an amazing creation of nature. Having dissolved in their love, cordiality, sunny rain and caressing waves, you leave your heart on the fertile shore and do not regret anything.

Black sand
Sandy beaches – centuries-old work of the sea, wind, sun to grind minerals. The color of the sand depends on the materials on which the water works.
Black sand is hardened volcanic lava, shattered into tiny particles by the worker-sea, carried out by the tides countless times on the coast so that today people can admire the results of labor and bask on the dark velvet of the beaches.
Note: the black sand gets very hot, so on the beaches in the hot time of the day you must definitely walk in shoes – so as not to get burned.
Black sand is considered curative in diseases of the musculoskeletal system, joints, salt deposits and respiratory organs. You need to “dig in” in the sand no earlier than 4 o’clock in the afternoon, when the sun and sand are no longer so burning. 10-15 minutes is enough time for sand captivity.
Black sand beaches are found on the coast of different continents. The story will be about the most picturesque and amazing.
Iceland
The island state attracts travelers with incredible landscapes, play of light, amazing beaches covered with black volcanic sand. Only seasoned walruses can dare to plunge into the waters of the North Atlantic, but everyone gets to enjoy the beauty.

Vik

Jökulsárlön
A fantastic place called Diamond Beach and even more poetically “a ghostly procession of luminous icebergs” is located on the shores of a glacial lagoon in the southeast of the country. Fragments of the glacier, thrown ashore and taken back by the sea, constantly change the picture. The sun’s rays at different times of the day give magical shades to transparent blocks.
The beach has been a movie set more than once, it is a must-have object in documentaries and promotional films about Iceland. Jeep and snowmobile tours are organized here.
Stokksnes
Fantastic black sand dunes constantly changing landscape against the backdrop of the Vestrahorn, a favorite subject for photographers around the world. The sunset or dawn sky reflected in the waters enhances the feeling of unreality.
Important to know: the beach is private, a small entry fee goes towards maintaining the roads leading to it.
Spain, Canary Islands
Few people know that on the paradise islands, where you can relax almost all year round, in addition to picturesque white and golden beaches, there are black beaches that change the usual advertising image of the Canaries beyond recognition.

The beach has repeatedly become a place for photo shoots and filming commercials.
New Zealand
The islands of this country are called the valley of volcanoes. Naturally, there are many beaches with volcanic black sand:

Greece, Santorini island
Santorini island is famous for its cozy white and golden sandy and pebbly beaches. But there are also unusual black beaches here:
- Perissa: 7-kilometer beach with a gentle entrance to the water is equipped with everything you need to carefree spend the whole day here: sun loungers, umbrellas, bars, restaurants, you can order food and drinks to the beach at specially equipped tables. Beach volleyball and football, diving are popular here. Popular artists often perform at evening and night discos;
- Perivolos: next to Pericca, but less popular due to the steep depth. Therefore, there is expanse for outdoor activities: volleyball, football, parachuting, riding bananas or jet skis;

Georgia
Ureki Beach, located in the village of the same name, 50 km from Batumi, is a picturesque place surrounded by a pine forest. Black sand is recognized as unique – it contains a large amount of the mineral magnetite (as on the beach of Playa Negrita in Puerto Rico).
The healing properties of magnetic sand have been studied and used for many diseases in the sanatorium “Kolchis”, built next to the beach. People come here for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, respiratory organs, musculoskeletal system, nervous system, cerebral palsy and many others.
Russia, Kamchatka
The 30-kilometer volcanic beach of Khalaktyrka is located in the Avacha Bay near the city of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. The water in the bay, even on summer days, does not exceed 15 degrees, so the most hardened ones decide to swim. But there are many lovers of sunbathing on the warm black sand. Many people come here just to admire the unique nature, wander along the coast and, if they are lucky, see the “indigenous” marine inhabitants – seals, including sea lions (eared seals) in the water.
Recently, Khalaktyrka has been chosen by surfers: they are attracted by almost unceasing high waves.
There are many more night-colored beaches on the planet than mentioned in this article. Some are equipped for a beach holiday, while others come to admire the unique beauty of landscapes or go in for water sports. But all the beaches are united by the bewitching mystical color of the sand. Therefore, probably, legends are composed about many and unusual properties are attributed to them.

Vik Beach, Iceland. The five-kilometer Vik beach is completely covered with pitch-black sand. This is due to the nearby Katla volcano, which has erupted 14 times since the 10th century, the last time in the 19th century.18 year. Hundreds of years after the eruptions, volcanic lava flowed into the ocean and solidified, sea water broke it and threw particles onto the shore – this is how Vik Beach, one of the most amazing places in Iceland, was born.
Although the Icelandic climate is not conducive to long-term swimming, the local scenery is worth seeing with your own eyes: from the black beach of the beach you can clearly see basalt boulders growing out of the water and black columns “Reynisdrangar” (Reynisdrangar) or “Troll Fingers”.

Playa Jardin, Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain. On the island of Tenerife at the foot of the Teide volcano (this is the highest point in Spain), there is the famous Playa Jardin – an artificial black beach. It appeared on the northern coast of the island in 1993 thanks to an ingenious plan by the architect Cesar Manrique. 230,000 cubic meters of volcanic sand were raised from the sea day to the shore and protected the new black beach from the waves with a dam weighing 20 tons. Now the islanders call this place the pearl of the Puerto de la Cruz resort.
The free beach is equipped for swimming: there are sun loungers, umbrellas, showers, changing rooms, several restaurants. The blue flag of UNESCO reports that the black sand of Playa Jardin has healing properties.

The 18-hole course has the added benefit of being set in a natural and soft amphitheater overlooking Playa de las Americas and the sea. The field is par 72, protected from the wind on one side by hills. and on the other side offers a breathtaking view of the sea.
This is a course with very gentle slopes, several water hazards and fairly wide fairways. Around the field you will find the island’s most typical trees and flowers: several types of palms and dragons.
This route is not overly difficult and offers great views and an unbeatable climate.

Golf del Sur opened in 1987 with a professional golf tournament, the first in the history of sporting events. Pepe Gancedo designed the route, which was later modified by Manuel Pinero. Pinero highlighted all the protected natural areas that surround the 27 holes between the gorges, highlighting the beautiful local flowers; cacti, palm trees and other large colorful plants. .
The course is known for its challenging 3 (par 5) and 4 (par 4) holes in the northern part of the course. Its wide paths are flanked by an impressive gorge of colorful rocks, where impressive native cacti grow, overlooking Mount Teide. The green entrance to the second hole (par 3) is surrounded by a large black sand bunker, requiring great precision.

Main pointsPuerto-Morlos-the best place for a calm beach-its location-its location-it Cancun and Playa del Carmen – gives you the opportunity to join the fun nightlife, but only if you wish. Locals, natives and visitors alike, are struggling to protect Puerto’s status as a national marine park and keep development to a minimum. Village center – main square (zocalo) , where shops, including those for divers, bars and restaurants have settled. A few steps away is a natural beach and a small pier for fishing boats delivering their daily catch to local restaurants. At the pier, you will most likely be offered excursions to coral reefs. BeachesNear the coast, at a shallow depth, there is a coral reef that has the status of a national treasure. Therefore, the seabed in the coastal strip is heavily overgrown with algae. However, the water here is crystal clear and the reef is a true snorkeling gem just a couple of meters from the shore. The main beach, enlarged by the 2005 hurricane, is to the right of the zocalo; there are other beaches, south and north of the village. The beaches here are not cleaned – unless the owner of a restaurant or hotel decides to do this – but they are quite clean, because there are no crowds that leave behind mountains of garbage, as in large resorts. Things to see and doCrocodile ZooTo the north of the village is Croco Cun, a zoo that breeds crocodiles; monkeys, parrots, deer and other wild animals are also kept here. Biologists working at the zoo have collected many non-native reptile species. Informative excursion with a visit to the terrarium and a thrilling walk through the jungle (beware of poisonous snakes, tarantulas and wild boars!) , 90 minutes. You can even pick up a little crocodile. Carretera, 307, Km 31. Tel: 998-850-37-19. www.crococunzoo.com. 8.30-17.30 daily. Be sure to bring repellent.

Beautiful broad-leaved trees, wild orchids, medicinal herbs grow here, as well as cacti of all shapes, sizes and types. Wild deer often come out to meet visitors, monkeys run out, here you can see parrots, toucans and many other birds. Carretera, 307, Km 33. 8.00-16.00 daily. Birdwatchers are allowed in earlier on prior request; don’t forget to bring repellent and wear long trousers.

Warm weather in europe in march: Top 5 warmest places in Europe in March you NEED to visit, RANKEDExtreme Heat Continues Its March Across Western EuropeEurope|Extreme Heat Continues Its March Across Western Europe Advertisement Continue reading the main story A heat wave that has caused fires to rage in southwestern France and Spain is moving north toward Britain, which may see its highest recorded temperatures ever. At the beach in Brighton, an oasis in southern England.Credit…Daniel Leal/Agence France-Presse — Getty Images By Kaly Soto Britain is bracing for its hottest day ever as a heat wave sweeps across Europe. Follow live updates here. LONDON — The weather maps for Europe were blood red on Sunday as heat that has been baking Spain and Italy and fanning fires in southwest France worked its way north toward Britain. In London, it was warm, in the high 80s, but temperatures on Monday and Tuesday were forecast to hit 100 or higher and to shatter records in a place where air-conditioning is rare and buildings are constructed to retain heat. In France, the extreme temperatures that have fed wildfires in the south are expected to sweep into the north, especially along the Atlantic coast, which was bracing for uncharacteristically scorching weather. In Italy, where temperatures were expected to be in the 90s on Sunday, the heat was bad enough, but the country is also experiencing its worst drought in years. The government has allocated 36.5 million euros, about $36.8 million, for water-starved farmers in northern regions. Two hydro-electrical plants had to be shut in the area because there was not enough water to cool them. And in Spain, a heat wave entered its eighth day, with 30 wildfires burning across the country. Relief is hard to find, even after the sun goes down — Saturday night was Madrid’s fifth consecutive “torrid night,” a term used when temperatures do not fall below 77 degrees Fahrenheit. The previous record stood at three nights. Rubén del Campo, the State Meteorological Agency’s spokesman, said that of the 27 torrid nights recorded in the past century, over half, 15, were since 2012. Video A heat wave has caused fires to rage in southwestern France and Spain.CreditCredit…Thibaud Moritz/Agence France-Presse — Getty Images Like everywhere else on Earth, Europe is seeing more extreme weather events more frequently, partly as a result of climate change. For proof, one has to look back only to last summer, when floods washed through Germany and other countries in July, killing hundreds. In August, multiple wildfires consumed large areas of Greece. And, also in August, one town in Sicily may have recorded the hottest temperature ever in Europe: 124 degrees Fahrenheit. But on Sunday, the attention in France was focused on the wildfires, in the southwestern Gironde region near Bordeaux, where over 1,200 firefighters were still struggling to contain two separate blazes. The fires have destroyed over 25,000 acres of vegetation and have forced more than 14,000 people to evacuate since Tuesday, the local authorities said. Four firefighters so far have been slightly injured, they said, and damage to buildings and homes has been minimal. Still, the authorities warned that the situation was unstable, with higher temperatures and shifting winds expected on Monday. “The weather conditions are very, very bad,” Vincent Ferrier, a local official in Langon, an area of Gironde, told reporters on Sunday. “These are obviously the worst conditions that you can have when you are fighting against a fire.” In Rome, where it has been in the 90s for the past week, street vendors dozed in the shade on Sunday morning while tourists filled their water bottles from the famous fountains. Cooling off under a public sprinkler on Saturday in Barcelona. Spain has seen extreme temperatures for the past eight days.Credit…Emilio Morenatti/Associated Press “It’s hot — too hot to walk around during the day,” said Serena Vendoni, 57, a hairdresser from northern Italy who was visiting Rome with her family for a long weekend. “But it’s hot even at home. We have been turning on the A.C. every day and every night for almost two months now.” She said that her family’s electric bill had skyrocketed as temperatures had rarely been under 86 for weeks. “We want to be careful with the A.C.,” Ms. Vendoni said. Energy prices have shot up in Europe partly because of the war in Ukraine. “But we have to be able to live in the house — and sleep.” On Sunday in Britain, people were making their own plans to withstand the coming heat. The forecasts for Monday and Tuesday were dire — on Friday, the country’s national weather service issued the most severe warning it has for London and a large part of England. The warning, a “red” alert, is meant to convey a risk to life, and health officials stressed that even healthy people could be adversely affected. The public was warned to try to stay out of the sun from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., to make only essential journeys on those days, to avoid exercising during the hottest part of the day and to carry water with them.

But the weather patterns over the Northern Hemisphere are not yet ready for the transition from Winter, with the polar circulation now being impacted by the breakdown of the Polar Vortex. There are some very strong weather drivers behind these changes, that typically command the weather patterns each winter season and extending into early Spring. We will look at what is causing these large-scale changes, and how they will play out this month and into the rest of the Spring season. We always tend to explain the behind-the-scenes processes at work, so you can much easily understand the grand scale of weather and the bigger picture.
WINTER SEASON 2021/2022 ENDS At this time, we usually take a look at the first (preliminary) temperature anomaly and the pressure pattern analysis for the entire Winter season. Below we have the Dec-Jan-Feb global pressure pattern. What stands out is the strong semi-permanent high-pressure system in the North Pacific. Also, as a response to that, we have a broad low-pressure area over Canada, covering also the northern United States and Alaska. Such a pattern typically pushes the jet stream down into the northwestern United States and onward towards eastern Canada. That helped to bring colder weather to the northern parts of the United States, extending also into the eastern parts. Over Europe, we have a ridge present over western Europe up into the North Atlantic. That means a low-pressure area is to the east of the ridge, over Scandinavia and also parts of northeastern Europe. For the first time, we are now also going to compare this analysis to the winter forecasts from November, which is the last month before meteorological winter begins. We can see a very good forecast from ECMWF over North Pacific and North America. There was a strong high-pressure system in the Pacific and the low-pressure zone over Canada. The forecast was not as good over Europe, with a low-pressure zone over the North Atlantic instead of Scandinavia. Looking at temperatures, below we have global temperature anomaly for the same period. We can actually see a lot of warm anomalies in the polar regions, north of the 60N latitude. What stands out is a large and strong cold pool over Canada. Most of Europe and the United States are under warmer than normal conditions. But the second half of the winter season has featured cold air outbreaks into the eastern half of the United States. In Europe, there were not enough cold air outbreaks to change the warmer average into negative anomalies. Now looking at the ECMWF global temperature forecast issued in November, we can see the strong cold pool over Canada, and warm anomalies over much of the United States. In reality, the warm anomalies over the United States were not as strong, and the central and eastern states have seen quite a few cold air outbreaks in the second half of winter. Over Europe the forecast was not completely off, just the main bulk of warmer anomalies was further over western and central Europe. LARGE-SCALE WEATHER DRIVERS But once the season starts, we tend to look more closely at the short-term variability. Besides the La Nina which we will cover later below, we have one other driver of the weather in the Northern Hemisphere. The infamous Polar Vortex. NORTH HEMISPHERIC POLAR VORTEX
Every year as we head into autumn, the polar regions receive less and less sunlight. This way, cooling begins over the north pole. But as the polar temperatures drop, the atmosphere further south is still relatively warm as it continues to receive energy from the Sun. You can see the winter solstice in the image below. The polar regions receive little to zero solar energy, compared to regions further south, which still continue to receive plenty of sunlight and energy. But, as the temperature begins to drop over the polar regions, so does the pressure. With colder temperatures over the pole, the temperature difference towards the south increases. This also causes a pressure difference as a large low-pressure (cyclonic) circulation starts to develop across the Northern Hemisphere. It extends from the surface layers, far up into the stratosphere. This is known as the Polar Vortex. The image below shows a typical example of the Polar Vortex at around 30km/18.5miles altitude (10mb level) around the middle stratosphere during the winter season. It is basically like a very large cyclone, covering the whole north pole, down to the mid-latitudes. It has a strong presence at all levels, from the ground up, but can have different shapes at different altitudes. In the next image below, we have the polar vortex at a much lower altitude, around 5km/3miles. The closer to the ground we go, the more deformed the polar vortex gets because it has to interact with the mountains and overall terrain and also with the strong weather systems Be aware of its “arms” extending into the lower latitudes, bringing along colder air and snowfall. These arms also pack a lot of energy and can create strong winter storms, either Noreasters in the United States or powerful wind storms in the North Atlantic. We are typically focusing more on the Stratospheric Polar Vortex, as it plays a very important role in the weather development throughout the season. It is known for its strong influence down from the stratosphere, in either direction, for a cold or warm winter. A strong Polar Vortex usually means strong polar circulation. This usually locks the colder air into the Polar regions, creating milder weather for most of the United States and Europe. As a contrast, a weak (wavy) Polar Vortex can create very dynamic weather. It has a much harder time containing the cold air, which can now escape out of the polar regions, into the United States and/or Europe. Image by NOAA. Typically, a polar vortex circulation is disrupted due to a rise in temperature in pressure in the stratosphere. That is called a Sudden Stratospheric Warming (SSW) event. But there can also be smaller warming waves in the stratosphere, that do not collapse the polar vortex. Instead, they can sometimes displace or disrupt the polar vortex enough to weaken its influence on the surface levels. That can allow other drivers to take over more strongly, creating a different weather pattern. To put the Polar Vortex into a perspective, we produced a high-resolution video, which nicely shows the vortex spinning over the Northern Hemisphere in the stratosphere at the 30mb level, around 23km/14miles altitude. Video shows the NASA GEOS-5 analysis for late January 2022. Notice how the stratospheric vortex covers a large part of the Northern Hemisphere. It spins over the Northern Hemisphere, driving also the winter weather below with its circulation.
It is one large cyclonic area that is spinning over the entire Northern Hemisphere, from the ground up to the top of the stratosphere and beyond, reaching over 50km/31miles in altitude. The Polar Vortex is important to monitor because every disruption as either a warming or a pressure wave in the stratosphere can mean a change in weather dynamics below. The next image below shows pressure anomalies from the surface into the upper stratosphere over the winter season. You can observe the strong low-pressure buildup in the stratosphere in late November. That was a strong polar vortex, connecting down to the surface levels in early December. But strong high-pressure anomalies have emerged over the polar circle in December, which pushed back against the stratosphere, “disconnecting” the upper and the lower polar vortex far into February. As far as the stratosphere and weather connection goes, there is a special graphic that puts that into a simple perspective. We can look at the pressure development from the surface up into the stratosphere over time. The next image shows also shows the forecast, where we can see strong high-pressure systems in the lower levels which are pushing up against the polar vortex in March. There are also high-pressure systems pressing down on the polar vortex from the very top of the stratosphere. All combined, it is slowly breaking down the polar circulation in the stratosphere, also impacting the weather patterns ahead. Below we have a 3D structure image of the Polar Vortex. It shows the Polar Vortex being split apart into two separate cores. This is a major development, that will impact the polar circulation. You will find out in the forecast how this happened and what it means for the weather. But the large-scale culprit behind the low-level blocking and weather dynamics this season was/is the oceanic La Nina. We mentioned it before, and we will quickly look at its current state and its role in the Spring weather ahead. ENSO AND ITS COLD LA NINA ENSO has a major influence on the tropical rainfall patterns (storms) and the complex exchange between the ocean and the atmosphere. Large-scale pressure changes can be observed in the tropics with each new developing phase. With some delay, these changes affect the circulation over the rest of the world. The cold ENSO phase is called La Nina and the warm phase is called El Nino. Besides the temperatures, one of the main differences between the phases is also in the pressure state. On the image below you can see the ocean surface temperature and pressure pattern difference between the warm and the cold phase. During an El Nino, the pressure over the tropical Pacific is lower, with more rainfall and storms. But during a La Nina, the pressure over the equatorial Pacific is high, creating stable conditions and less precipitation. This obviously translates into the global circulation, affecting both the Northern and the Southern hemispheres. Below we have the latest global ocean temperature anomaly analysis from NOAA. We can clearly see the decaying cold anomalies in the tropical Pacific Ocean. That is the current La Nina phase slowly weakening, but still maintaining the cold anomalies within the La Nina threshold. Combining the strongest 13 cold ENSO events gives us an idea of what their main weather influence is. The main feature, as you can see, is a high-pressure system in the North Pacific and low pressure over Canada. This is what we have seen in the winter analysis at the beginning of the article. It helps us to confirm the strong presence and influence of the oceanic anomaly. Over Europe, we see lower pressure over Scandinavia and higher pressure over northwestern Europe, but that cannot be designated as a typical weather response from the La Nina, due to low signal strength. Knowing what will drive our weather in the coming weeks, we will look at the latest forecasts and how the weather will evolve this month. POLAR VORTEX BREAKING DOWN On the image below we have the seasonal average wind speed for the Polar Vortex at 10mb level. The black line is the long-term average, and the blue line is the polar vortex strength in the 2021/22 season. But the red line is actually the forecast, which shows the rapid weakening of the polar vortex is now starting and will continue into the month of March. Below we have a closer look at the extended ensemble forecast for the 10mb winds. It shows the polar vortex currently weakening and then powering back up again briefly. But after the brief power-up, the polar vortex will be under too much pressure. It will slowly weaken and break down, heading going into April. Looking at the current polar vortex development, we can see that the vortex is under heavy pressure from the North Pacific and the Atlantic sector. It has been broken/split into two separate cores, one over east Canada and one over Siberia. Taking a look at temperatures on the 10mb level (30km/18.5mi), we can see a warming wave engulfing both cores. A weak cold-core remains over Europe. These two low-pressure cores are what we have seen earlier above on the 3D structure. Next up, we have the vertical pressure anomaly profile, revealing a connection between the stratosphere and the lower levels. We can see the two cores of the split polar vortex. Both are connected down to the lower levels, directly to the weather systems over Canada and one over Eurasia. This is a unique pattern setting up, called a negative Arctic Oscillation (AO). This is a weather oscillation that describes the atmospheric pressure and circulation around the Arctic circle. Negative AO equals a weak polar vortex and positive AO responds to a strong polar vortex. We can nicely see that if we look at the latest state of pressure anomalies across the Northern Hemisphere. The Polar regions are dominated and surrounded by high-pressure anomalies. Low-pressure systems and colder air is being displaced out of the polar regions, with one lobe over Eurasia and one pair over Greenland and the western United States. Such a pattern can be called “March madness”. First looking at Europe, we can see the latest conditions being quite colder than normal over much of the continent. The exception is far northern Europe, currently under the influence of a ridge. Taking a closer look at North America, we see mostly warm anomalies over much of the eastern half United States and Canada. Colder than normal weather is ongoing over most of the western half of the United States.
POLAR CIRCULATION SLOWS In the lower levels, we will be witnessing a similar pattern as we have seen before in the stratosphere, which is of course a broken down circulation. We have two main low-pressure zones, one over the Siberian region and one of course over North America. Here the polar circulation is also “split” apart like in the stratosphere. It is disrupted by the strong high-pressure systems crawling over the Arctic, changing the jet stream and the path of weather systems. Over Europe, colder weather will prevail in this period. Warmer than normal temperatures will expand over northern Europe, as the strong high-pressure ridge moves into Scandinavia. But that also amplifies the cold air transport from the north/northeast. Over North America, we can see a strong pattern shift. As one core of the lower polar vortex stabilizes over Canada, it establishes a cold air transport from the north. A cold outbreak is expected in this period, affecting most of the United States to a varying degree. Looking more closely, the main deterministic weather model shows an example of how this strong cold air outbreak will quickly spread from western Canada into the northwestern United States and down into most of the country. This is a significant cold anomaly for this time of the year. The far eastern half of the United States is expected to have quite warmer than normal weather, in the warm southern flow ahead of the approaching cold outbreak. SECOND HALF OF MONTH, SECOND BREAKDOWN One high-pressure system is pressing on the polar vortex from the North Atlantic, and one from the North Pacific. But a decent double temperature wave is also involved, helping to further weaken the main core of the polar vortex, which otherwise thrives on colder temperatures. The vertical pressure anomaly profile reveals a connection in a similar place as with the first break (split) event. But this time, the two cores are more evenly matched in power, tho connecting to the lower levels in a similar region. The pressure pattern forecast for the early parts of the second half shows the breakdown event of the polar circulation to also continue in the lower levels. We can see that the high-pressure rising over the Pole is persistent, keeping the low pressure locked over Canada and the Siberian sector. In Europe, we see the colder air finally moving out, being confined more to western Europe. Warmer air advances further into central Europe, as the strong ridge starts to take over. Over North America, we can see a strong cold pool remaining over Canada and the northern United States. This, together with the weakened polar circulation does allow for a drop of colder than normal air into the eastern half of the United States. NOAA also regularly releases their 8-14 day forecast for the United States. Below we have the temperature forecast for mid-March, where NOAA calls for colder weather in much of the northern and eastern United States, with the coldest in the Midwest. Warmer than normal weather is expected in the southwestern United States, under a high-pressure zone. We have the precipitation forecast below, which calls for more precipitation in the northwest and in the northeast. The central and southern United States can expect drier than normal conditions in the mid-month. Taking a look at the far second half of the month, requires a different approach, using the extended/weekly forecast from the ECMWF extended ensemble forecast. LATE MARCH 2022 WEATHER The temperature forecast for Europe suggests colder temperatures in the far southeast. But most of the mainland will see a return of warmer than normal weather, under the expanding high-pressure blocking. Over North America, the pattern continues from February, with a temperature gap from the northern United States down into the eastern half. This is a likely path of continued colder air outbreaks, as long as the strong cold air anomaly remains up in Canada. Looking at the pressure pattern going into April, we can see an attempt at a slight recovery in circulation. The strong cross-polar ridging is not really seen at present. The main low-pressure core remains over Canada and Greenland. The temperature forecast for Europe suggests the same pattern as in late March, with warmer than normal temperatures taking over most of the continent. Over North America, the pattern doesn’t change much going into the first days of April. Some of it is due to the stable low-pressure system over Canada. But it can also be due to the forecast just averaging out at this extended time range. The fact remains that as long as there is a stable low-pressure anomaly over Canada, there will be a cold anomaly region there, allowing colder air outbreaks, which in spring can also lead to severe weather. MARCH 2022 OFFICIAL NOAA FORECAST Below is the latest official March 2022 temperature forecast/outlook for the United States by NOAA. It shows the temperature probability, with colder weather being more likely in the northwestern United States. The southern and eastern United States have a higher probability of warmer than normal weather. The official precipitation forecast is similar to the model forecast. We see an equal-to-higher probability for more precipitation in the northwestern and the eastern United States. The far southern United States is forecast to have a drier than normal month, especially in the southwest. A special forecast graphic below shows the drought tendency over the month of March. We can see continued to worsen drought conditions over much of the western half of the United States. But what are the current drought conditions? Well, most of the western and southern United States is under some level of drought conditions. The driest conditions prevail in the south-central states and in the northwestern United States. As you will see also below on the outlook for the entire Spring season, the drought conditions in the southwestern United States will prevail for some time. And likely worsen. SPRING 2022 SEASONAL WEATHER FORECAT In the pressure pattern forecast from ECMWF below, we can see the typical La Nina high-pressure system in the North Pacific. The low-pressure system is present over western Canada and expanding into Greenland and the polar regions. The jet stream is bending in between the high and low-pressure systems as we have seen in the previous, as during the winter. We see the North Atlantic in a positive North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) mode, which means an amplified jet stream from Iceland and into Scandinavia. A positive NAO generally means mild/warmer conditions for Europe and the southeastern United States. The global temperature forecast below shows North America divided into two parts. Western Canada is forecast to remain colder than normal, thanks to the jet stream position. There is a high chance of this colder air extending south, into the parts of the northern and eastern United States. The Southern United States is forecast to be warmer than normal. Looking closer at Europe, we see the surface temperatures are mostly above normal. Some colder anomalies are seen in the far North Atlantic, where the low-pressure systems will travel across. Far southeastern Europe is also forecast to be colder than normal, due to a more northerly flow. Over North America, the ECMWF forecast shows colder than normal surface temperatures in Alaska and western Canada. We see a slight indication of colder air intruding into the northwestern United States. The rest of the country is mostly warmer than normal, especially in the southwest. Notice a weaker warm anomaly in the eastern United States. That indicates a window for colder than normal air to spread into parts of the eastern United States. A higher chance for that is in the early part of the spring. The precipitation anomaly forecast below shows a more normal La Nina type pattern over Canada and the United States. We see the mainland United States with wetter conditions in the northwest and the east, and drier conditions in the southwest and over Florida. Europe is trending with more precipitation over the northern regions, following the jet stream and low-pressure systems. Drier conditions are forecast for most of western and central Europe, under high-pressure systems. Below is the latest official Spring temperature forecast for the United States by NOAA. It shows the temperature probability, with colder to equal chances in the northwestern United States. The southern and eastern United States have a high probability of warmer than normal spring weather. Such a pattern however still allows for strong cold air outbreaks into the Midwest and the northeast. A strong cold pool will be present in western Canada, which can be triggered to send a cold air outbreak into the United States if the pressure pattern shift occurs. The official precipitation forecast is also quite similar to the model forecast. We see an equal-to-higher probability for more precipitation in the northwestern and the eastern United States. The southern United States is forecast to have a drier than normal spring, especially in the southwest. We will release regular weekly and monthly updates as fresh forecasts and data are available.

Best Time to Visit Europe | Travel TipsPlan your perfect escape with our weather guide to Europe Europe is a large and impossibly varied continent. From the romance of Paris, the heat and the history of Rome, to the culture of London, Europe has it all. You could spend your whole life in Europe, and still have new and interesting things to see and explore. However, it is this varied nature that makes choosing the best time to visit Europe all the more complicated. Although the continent is beautiful all year round, depending on when you go, you can experience Europe in beautiful sunshine, or in the rain and snow. Most Ideal Low Season
overview In January, expect some places to be bitterly cold. Depending on where you are, you’ll find that snowfall is not uncommon. For example, in Berlin, the temperature can be as cold as 29-37 °F (-1°C) with a fair amount of snowfall. In the south, the climate improves, but remains relatively cool nevertheless, such as in Amalfi, Italy, which sees temperatures between 46 and 55 °F. overview As the winter snows melt, the rain arrives. Though the temperature isn’t quite as cold as in December or January, you should bring a coat. For example, in Naples, Italy, the temperature can vary between 40 and 56 °F (5 – 15 °C), and in Northern France, it can sometimes be bitterly cold 415°F (5°C ) overview March is a cool and wet time to be in Europe, with some places seeing far more cold, rainy days than warm sunny ones, though, of course, this isn’t universal. In terms of temperature, expect cool and pleasant conditions in the south and cold weather in central Europe. Overview In Spring, the temperatures in Europe can vary wildly, but, if you are planning to be in northern or central Europe, you should expect significant rain. Temperature-wise, it is comfortable, with southern parts varying between 50°F (10°C)and 65 °F 18°C. In northern or central Europe, you can expect quite a bit of rain, and cool weather. overview May is the best time visit Europe thanks to the pleasant temperature. You can still feel some of the coolness of Spring, thus making this a good time to go exploring. In warm southern Spain, the temperature tends to stay between 54 (12°C) and 69°F (20°C), with sunny weather throughout, although the occasional shower wouldn’t be unexpected. In the north, it’s cooler and more likely to rain. overview With the start of summer, Europe becomes a warm place indeed. In Spain, which is very popular with visitors, the temperature is often between 71 (21°C) and 80°F (26°C). In the north, the temperature is unlikely to be quite this warm but you can expect pleasant and rain-free days. overview July is a good time to visit Europe. While you will be able to enjoy the hot mid-summer weather, it isn’t quite as intensely warm in southern Europe as it is in August. The weather is certain to appeal to those who want to enjoy summer weather but don’t like it too warm. As with May and June, expect the weather to be refreshingly cooler in the north. overview In many European countries, August is the busiest month for visitors although it’s also one of the warmest months. For example, on the beautiful island of Sicily, in southern Italy, the heat can be quite intense. overview In September, you can still enjoy the hot weather of the summer, but in some places, the temperature will noticeably decrease as the month progresses. However, expect the weather to remain pleasantly warm throughout. overview In mid-Fall the weather starts to change noticeably. While you will still enjoy warm, and even hot days, in coastal regions, there is a general decrease in temperature as you travel northward. In Spain, the temperature can vary significantly, so preparing both for cold weather and warm weather can be a good idea. overview At this time of year, the weather gets noticeably cooler. For example, in Madrid, the temperature often stays between 54 (12°C) and 66°F (18°C), and in the north, for example in Amsterdam, the weather is typically a few degrees colder, with increased rainfall. overview If you visit Europe during December you should prepare for cold weather, and, in some places, snow. Don’t necessarily think that southern places will be much warmer either; even in southern regions such as Sicily, it can get as low as 50°F (10°C).

Spring is a beautiful time in Europe. Across the continent, the days are getting longer, and the temperatures begin to rise. The weather in Europe in March, the first month of Spring, is generally still chilly, particularly at night, and some destinations (such as Paris and the mountains of France, Switzerland, and Italy), still see snowfall. In April, things are starting to get a bit brighter. Flowers begin to bloom and iconic destinations, such as the Greek islands, open for the tourist season. The weather in Europe in May is perfect in many tourist hotspots. It is also the best time to visit southern Europe to avoid the soaring temperatures of summer. Capital cities such as Rome and Paris benefit from the golden light of Spring, while the warm temperatures are far better for exploring than the high temperatures of Summer.
What to pack for a spring visit to Europe
Spring in Europe is a mixed bag, weather-wise. Early in the season, temperatures will be cold; as low as 45F in Northern France and even colder in the snowy countries of Scandinavia. So if you’re visiting in March or early April, a warm coat and plenty of layers to wrap up in will help keep the chill at bay. The weather in Europe during Spring can also be rather wet, even into May. A good travel umbrella and a light waterproof jacket ensure that your sightseeing won’t be interrupted by showers.

Summer is the most famous and popular time to visit Europe for great weather, and for good reason. From June through August, the mercury rises to the high 80’s in the south, which is the ideal temperature for spending lazy vacation days on the beaches of the Mediterranean. The weather tends to be the hottest across the board in July, with June and August being just a touch cooler. Classic European beach destinations, such as Marbella in Spain and Santorini in Greece, are also very dry during the summer, only seeing an average of 2 rainy days across the three-month period from June to August.
What to pack for summer in Europe
For any season in Europe, the key to comfort is to pack layers. If you’re off on a beach vacation to Spain, the South of France, or Greece, you can stick with light clothing and plenty of sun protection. For city breaks in the summer, it would be wise to pack a light rain jacket, particularly for popular destinations Paris and Dubrovnik, which are prone to short, heavy showers.

Fall is a particularly beautiful time in Europe, particularly in wild and rural places. The colors of the leaves on the trees slowly change from fresh green to russet and burnt orange, and warm days are coupled with crisp, clear nights and misty mornings. The temperatures start to drop off in cities and northern destinations, although southern places cling to high temperatures until late October. The biggest change in weather from the summer is the number of rainy days you can expect. Even dry resorts such as Marbella and the Algarve see significant rainfall in the autumn months.
What to pack for Autumn in Europe
Be prepared for change, and you won’t go wrong. Europe in Fall is a mixed bag, with some days hot and sunny and others, wet, windy and cold. Pack for every eventuality and you’ll be covered for whatever the weather throws at you. Even if you’re going somewhere, such a Mallorca or Tenerife, which holds onto sunshine and warm temperatures year-round, there’s always a chance of an odd rainy day or cold night in the Fall.

Winter is the most varied time for weather in Europe. Some places, such as Iceland, Norway, and the Alpine regions are knee-deep in snow by mid-December, while others, such as Portugal’s Algarve, Spain’s Canary Islands, and Malta are basking in 60 degrees temperatures and higher. For fans of snowy adventures, winter is of course the best time to hit the slopes in Italy, Switzerland, and France, with steady snowfall from December through February.
What to pack for winter in Europe
If you’re going anywhere other than one of the winter sun destinations, you’ll need to take plenty of thick, woolly coats, hats, gloves, and scarves. Many places in Europe are not only cold, but windy, which makes the temperature feel even lower. Sturdy shoes are also a must for winter in Europe, as nothing ruins a sightseeing day more than wet, cold feet.

When to visit Europe to beat the crowds
As we mentioned earlier, Europe is an extremely popular destination, and certain times of year see millions of tourists from all over the world descend on beaches, cities, and resorts. For many people, being squashed onto a stretch of sand with hundreds of other people like sardines in a tin is not the most attractive way to spend a vacation. The good news is, there are absolutely times when you can plan a European vacation to avoid the crowds.
When is Europe busiest?
Across the continent, Summer is the peak season, It doesn’t matter if you’re watching sunsets on Santorini, trying tapas in Spain, or exploring the beaches of northern France, between June and August, it is going to be busy. August is the busiest month across Europe and is the peak time for family vacations.
Many European destinations are also crowded during the festive holiday season, particularly throughout December. Millions of tourists head to the famed Christmas markets of Germany, The Netherlands, France, and Czechia at this time of year. Ski resorts are also very busy in December, and during the school break in February.
Crowds in London, England
When to visit Europe for fewer crowds
The shoulder seasons are widely regarded as the best time to visit Europe to avoid crowds. Popular cities such as Paris, Barcelona, Rome, and Athens see much lighter footfall during the spring and fall months than in the summer and winter. Attractions are less crowded, beaches are emptier and, as a result, prices are lower. March is generally the quietest month across the board, with a small spike in numbers in April for Easter celebrations. May is the best month to visit Europe for a compromise between good weather and fewer crowds than in the peak season, although visitor numbers begin to creep up during the month.
September, when European schools restart, is a good time to enjoy the last of the summer sun with fewer families around, while October and November see low numbers of people and chillier weather setting in.
When to visit Europe for a beach vacation
The best time to visit Europe’s beaches is in May and September for the majority of destinations. This is because the Mediterranean, Balkan and Aegean resorts are enjoying high temperatures and calm seas, without the thronging crowds of the peak summer season.
If you’re visiting winter sun destinations, such as Tenerife or the Algarve, you have even more options. If you are hoping for a bit of vitamin sea to chase the winter blues away, then November through March is a great time to take advantage of cheaper flight prices and bask in winter warmth.

When is the best time to visit Europe for a ski vacation?
Europe is home to some of the best ski resorts on Earth, attracting winter sports fans and top-class athletes from all over the world. Ski vacations in Europe are all about glamour, with resorts such as Chamonix and Zermatt providing equal doses of glittering skiing, nightlife and cozy, rustic alpine living. For top skiing, you need good snow and lots of it. Thankfully, the Alpine regions of France, Italy, Switzerland, and Austria offer just that, between late November and March. Other popular regions for skiing in Europe include the Pyrenees on the Spain-France border, the Pirin Mountains in Bulgaria, and the Sierra Nevadas in Spain. Check out our guide for more information on fabulous ski vacations in Europe.

AO Blog Update | Verisk’s Atmospheric and Environmental Research
September 15, 2022
Dear AO/PV blog readers:
We have shifted the public release of the Arctic Oscillation/Polar Vortex blog to every other Wednesday through the summer season.
For those who would like an early look on Mondays, we will be offering at a nominal price (US $25) a PDF version of the upcoming blog, and we will be rolling out access to the datasets used in the production of this blog.
At present we plan to make available in comma-separated values the timeseries of the Polar Cap Height and the timeseries of the Wave Activity Flux (vertical component), though we would appreciate to hear your suggestions for additional data of interest to you all.
Dr. Judah Cohen from Atmospheric and Environmental Research (AER) embarked on an experimental process of regular research, review, and analysis of the Arctic Oscillation ( The positive AO is often associated with cold weather in the Arctic but mild weather across the mid-latitudes including the Eastern United States, Europe and East Asia. The negative AO phase is characterized by a high-pressure center anomaly over the entire Arctic basin or polar cap and low-pressure center anomalies in each ocean basin in the mid-latitudes. The negative AO is often associated with milder weather in the Arctic but severe winter weather, including cold-air or Arctic outbreaks and snowstorms across the mid-latitudes including the Eastern United States, Europe and East Asia. The AO can be considered an atmospheric mixing index. During the positive AO phase there is little mixing of atmospheric masses between the Arctic and lower latitudes (mid-latitudes and subtropics) so the cold air stays bottled up in the Arctic and mild air dominates the mid-latitudes. During the negative AO phase there is increased mixing of atmospheric masses between the Arctic and lower latitudes (mid-latitudes and subtropics) so the cold air is release from the Arctic and mild air in the mid-latitudes and subtropics flows more easily into the Arctic region. “>AO) and Polar Vortex (PV). This analysis is intended to provide researchers and practitioners real-time insights on one of North America’s and Europe’s leading drivers for extreme and persistent temperature patterns.
During the winter schedule the blog is updated once every week. Snow accumulation forecasts replace precipitation forecasts. Also, there is renewed emphasis on ice and snow boundary conditions and their influence on hemispheric weather. With the start of spring we transition to a spring/summer schedule, which is once every two weeks. Snow accumulation forecasts will be replaced by precipitation forecasts. Also, there will be less emphasis on ice and snow boundary conditions and their influence on hemispheric weather.

Special recap of winter 2019/20
Summary
- Winter 2019/20 was characterized by widespread warmth across the mid-latitudes continents including the United States (US), Southern Canada and especially Europe and Northern Asia. In contrast it was relatively cold across the North American Arctic including Alaska, Northern Canada, Greenland, parts of Eastern Siberia and the Central Arctic.
- The phase of the El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) had a warm bias but in general remained neutral that winter. ENSO did not seem to be a big factor that winter.
- October Siberian snow cover was fast to advance early in the month, then stalled and finished the month with a rapid spurt. October Siberian snow cover extent (SCE) was well above normal and more than most recent years. SCE was also above normal across North America. As I have argued much of my career above normal SCE in the fall across Siberia is favorable for disrupting the polar vortex.
- Arctic sea ice was below normal during the fall but focused in the North Pacific sector more so than in the Barents-Kara seas. This pattern of sea ice anomalies is not thought conducive to disrupting the polar vortex (PV).
- Unusual for the PV, there was little variability all winter with the PV locked in an undisturbed state. The only meaningful disruption was in late November and early December and it was minor and I believe was a reflective or stretched PV event.
- Overall, during the winter, the PV was strong to record strong. The strong PV was for much of the winter coupled with a positive to even record positive Arctic Oscillation (AO). The pattern of Northern Hemisphere (NH) surface temperature anomalies was consistent with a strong PV and positive AO and contributed to the warmest overall winter across the NH continents in recent years.
Boundary Forcings
The climate community focuses on El Niño/Southern Oscillation or ENSO in making seasonal forecasts and a mostly neutral event was predicted by the models for winter 2019/20 and therefore ENSO was not much of a factor in the winter forecasts. In Figure 1 I show the forecasts from dynamical models that show general warmth across the NH and do not exhibit the iconic northwest North America/Southern US dipole associated with ENSO variability.
Figure 1. The winter 2019/20 surface temperature anomalies forecast for the Northern
Hemisphere from the a) NOAA CFSv2, b) the North American Multi-model Ensemble
(NMME), c) the C3S model ensemble (ECMWF, UK Met and Meteo France models) and
d) the AER statistical model.
I will no longer discuss ENSO in the remainder of the blog post as the observed surface temperature anomaly pattern for the winter much more closely resembled that related to a positive AO more so than either phase of ENSO. However, I do want to mention that the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) was near record positive in the fall and early winter. This is not a teleconnection pattern that I usually pay attention to, nor do I know much about it. But it is plausible that it did contribute to a lack of high latitude blocking and a strong PV that winter, especially in the absence of strong ENSO forcing.
At AER we use ENSO in producing seasonal forecasts, but in addition we have pioneered the use of Arctic boundary forcings in winter seasonal forecasting including Arctic sea ice but especially Eurasian snow cover in October. We have demonstrated using observational analysis and model perturbation experiments that extensive Eurasian October snow cover is related to/can force a strengthened Siberian high, increased poleward heat flux, a weak stratospheric polar vortex (PV), which culminates in an extended period of a negative Arctic Oscillation (AO). A negative AO is associated with below normal temperatures in the Eastern US and Northern Eurasia including Northern Europe and East Asia. Scientists including those at AER, have shown a similar atmospheric response to low Arctic sea ice. In our recent paper Cohen et al. (2021) we also argued that above normal Eurasian SCE can favor reflective or stretched PV events that result not in a negative AO but rather a negative Nort Pacific Oscillation (NPO) pattern that favors widespread cold across North America east of the Rockies and Central/East Asia but not Europe.
There are different ideas how variability in Arctic sea ice might influence winter hemispheric weather but the trend has been a convergence to a similar set of mechanisms first proposed for Eurasian snow cover. Also, there is growing consensus that it is Barents-Kara sea ice in the late fall and early winter that has the greatest impact across Eurasia. Similarly, low Arctic sea ice in the Chukchi-Bering Seas might favor colder temperatures downstream across North America.
October 2019 Eurasian snow cover extent (SCE) was above normal even when compared to recent Octobers (Figure 2a). Snow cover advance was relatively fast in early and late October but stalled mid-month but for the entire month SCE was well above normal. I also compute the snow advance index (SAI) which is a measure of the pace or speed of the snow cover advance across Eurasia (see Cohen and Jones 2011 for more detail). The value was also above normal but not as high as the SCE for October.
Figure 2. a) Standardized snow cover extent anomaly across Eurasia for October 1979-2019 b) Observed Arctic sea ice extent anomalies November 2019. Negative anomalies shown in blue shading.
Fall 2019 Arctic sea ice was below normal (Figure 2b) however Barents-Kara sea ice was only slightly below normal in November and higher that most recent Novembers with the exception of 2014. Therefore, Arctic sea ice was probably not as favorable for forcing a sudden stratospheric warming (SSW and where the zonal mean zonal wind reverses from westerly to easterly at 60°N and 10 hPa) often followed by a negative AO and cold temperatures across the NH mid-latitudes compared to other recent years.
The quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) was in its westerly phase that winter. The QBO is a periodic oscillation of the zonal winds in the equatorial stratosphere and in the westerly phase the zonal winds are stronger. The westerly phase is thought to favor a stronger PV, which favors milder temperatures across the NH continents. It is plausible that the westerly QBO contributed to the overall mild winter.
And of course, the near record warm global atmosphere and ocean provided an overall warm backdrop heading into the winter of 2019/20.
Late fall/very early winter
As mentioned above, October 2019 Eurasian snow cover extent was above normal due to an early and late month surge in snow cover advance. Above normal snow cover across Siberia in October favors a strengthened Siberian high in November with the largest positive sea level pressure (SLP) anomalies northwest of the climatological center (see Figure 3a taken from Cohen et al 2014). The rapid advance of snow cover at the end of October favored the northwestward expansion of the Siberian high in November which dominated the monthly mean for November (Figure 3b). Below normal sea ice in the Barents-Kara seas is also associated with the northwestward expansion of the Siberian high and the combination of the rapid advance in snow cover at the end of October and low Barents-Kara sea ice contributed to an episode of blocking centered over the Urals for the months of November. From Figure 3, the northwestward expansion of the Siberian high is clearly evident as well as the “classic” tripole SLP anomaly pattern with relatively high pressure near Scandinavia/Urals and low pressure in both the North Atlantic and North Pacific Ocean basins that is the hemispheric circulation that is most favorable for disrupting the stratospheric PV.

This tripole pattern is optimal for forcing increased vertical transfer of Rossby wave energy (vertical wave activity flux or WAFz) and poleward heat flux. The WAFz plot in Figure 4 shows active WAFz throughout November first in the troposphere and then in the stratosphere. The period of active WAFz, peaked the last week of November in the stratosphere.
Figure 4. Observed daily vertical component of the wave activity flux (WAFz) standardized anomalies, averaged poleward of 40-80°N from October 1 through March 31 (data for first week is missing).
As I have discussed in the blog and in past winter summaries one of my focuses of my research has been to demonstrate that behavior of the stratospheric PV is not just binary, i.e., a strong PV and a weak or disrupted PV that is only really considered when a major mid-winter warming (MMW) is observed, which is identified when the zonal mean zonal wind reverses from westerly to easterly at 60°N and 10 hPa.
It turns out that the tropospheric response to a polar vortex disruption where WAFz is “reflected” is quite different from when WAFz is “absorbed.” The tropospheric response to a PV disruption where the WAFz is absorbed is the “classic” response to stratospheric PV disruptions. The tropospheric response is characterized by Greenland blocking, negative North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), relatively cold temperatures across northern Eurasia and milder across North Africa, the Middle East and the North American Arctic. Also, the tropospheric response is usually delayed relative to the WAFz pulses and the response can be of long duration, lasting of up to two months. In contrast the tropospheric response to a PV disruption where the WAFz is “reflected” is characterized by blocking near Alaska, relatively cold across much of Canada, the Eastern US and Central Asia and mild across Alaska and Europe. The response is not associated with a negative NAO but rather a negative North Pacific Oscillation (NPO). Also, the tropospheric response is usually rapid relative to the WAFz pulses and the response is of relatively short duration lasting on the order of days and up to two weeks. This will be a of more important consequence in winter 2020/21.
It is not until winter 2021/22 did we regularly produce the WAFz diagnostics that demonstrate reflective events so I what I now argue is somewhat circumstantial. In November and December there are two observed examples of positive WAFz pulses quickly followed by negative WAFz pulses – first in at the very end of October and early November and then again in late November and early December (Figure 4). This is strongly suggestive of a reflective events that involve upward WAFz pulses over Asia that reflect off the polar vortex and then are directed downward over North America. As I just mentioned, reflective WAFz results in blocking/high pressure as well as warming near Alaska with upstream and downstream troughing and cold temperatures across Central and Eastern Asia and North America east of the Rockies first in the stratosphere and quickly followed in the troposphere. In Figure 5, I present the geopotential heights for both 10 hPa and 500 hPa from November 1-15, 2019. Figure 5a closely matches the “reflective” cluster 4 for the stratospheric PV (see Figure 1 from Kretschmer et al. 2018) with a stretched PV from Asia to North America and positive geopotential height anomalies centered near the Dateline, Eastern Siberia and the North Atlantic with downstream negative geopotential heights across Asia but especially North America. And at 500 hPa there is strong ridging stretching along the West Coast of North America including Alaska and into Eastern Siberia with another ridge in the North Atlantic. The main troughs are in East Asia and eastern North America. There is another trough in Western Europe.
Figure 5. a) Observed average 10 hPa geopotential heights (dam; contours) and geopotential height anomalies (m; shading) across the Northern Hemisphere for November 1- 15, 2019. b) Observed average 500 hPa geopotential heights (dam; contours) and geopotential height anomalies (m; shading) across the Northern Hemisphere from November 1 – 15, 2019.
This pattern results in below normal temperatures in Northern Asia, Western Europe and especially Eastern Canada and the Eastern US (see Figure 6). On the flip side there are relatively warm temperatures under the mdi-tropospheric ridging along the West Coast of North America, Eastern Siberia Greenland and Eastern Europe.
Figure 6. a) Observed average surface temperature anomalies (°C; shading) for November 1 – 15, 2019.
Another stretched PV or reflective event takes place in late November and early December. I show the NH geopotential height pattern for the first half of December both at 10 hPa and 500 hPa in Figure 7. The pattern in the stratosphere looks more like a Canadian warming than a starched PV but if you look ahead at Figure 9a for late November it looks much more a typical stretched PV event. In the mid-troposphere (which is usually a bit delayed relative to the response in the stratosphere) the pattern better resembles that associated with stretched or reflective PV events with strong ridging near Alaska with troughs across Asia and eastern North America that extends into the North Atlantic.
Figure 7. a) Observed average 10 hPa geopotential heights (dam; contours) and geopotential height anomalies (m; shading) across the Northern Hemisphere for December 1- 15, 2019. b) Observed average 500 hPa geopotential heights (dam; contours) and geopotential height anomalies (m; shading) across the Northern Hemisphere from December 1 – 15, 2019.
The surface temperature anomaly pattern also resembles that associated with a stretched PV with cold temperatures in East Asia (though not very impressive this period but the cold became more expansive in late December – see ahead to Figure 10b) and Eastern Canada and the Northeastern US (see Figure 8). It was also relatively warm in western North America, Europe, Western and Central Asia. However overall, the stretched/reflective PV event of early December is not as clean or as strong as the event in early November.
Figure 8. a) Observed average surface temperature anomalies (°C; shading) for December 1 – 15, 2019.
The tropospheric response to stretched/reflective PV events is relatively short on the order of one to two weeks. And after the stretched/reflective PV events in early November and December the tropospheric circulation and surface temperature anomaly patterns relax in late November and December with some residual impacts. The stratospheric PV seems to remain in a stretched configuration for much of November and December (see Figure 9a&b). However, in the troposphere, the ridging centered near Alaska and Eastern Siberia abates and the troughs in eastern North America are replaced with ridges (see Figure 9c&d). Still, ridging near the Urals helps to maintain troughing in East Asia and relatively cold temperatures dominate Central and East Asia while milder temperatures overspread eastern North America in late November and December (see Figure 10a&b). And with strong westerly flow in both periods across Europe, Europe remains mild for both periods.

From Figure 9a, it does look like the PV is vulnerable to further weakening and the potential does exist for an SSW and not just stretching, especially given that the WAFz remained active for the last three weeks of December (see Figure 4). And looking back on my blog posts in late November I was discussing the possibility of an SSW in late December (see blog from 29 Nov 2019). In winter 2018/19 the PV transitioned from a stretched PV to a mature SSW while in 2019/20 the PV transitioned from a stretched PV to an absolute beast and what accounts for the difference, I don’t really know. It is possible that the QBO was easterly in 2018/19 but westerly in 2019/20. Another difference (but with little support in the literature) is that the IOD was strongly positive in fall 2019 but not in fall 2018.

Mid winter
A reflective layer in the stratosphere inhibits WAFz from penetrating to higher levels in the stratosphere that can shield the PV from disruption and often following stretched PV events the PV will strengthen. I believe a very good example of this is winter 2010/11. A strong reflective event took place in January but starting at the end of January the PV started to wind up and was in beast mode for the remainder of the winter and into early April before a rapid demise. The strong PV even contributed to the first-ozone-hole recorded in the Northern Hemisphere. That is where I want to end the similarities between winters 2010/11 and 2019/20 since the timing and what preceded the PV spin-up were very different.
The lack of active WAFz at the end of December through early February and the reflective layer in the stratosphere allowed the PV to strengthen represented by cold/negative polar cap geopotential height anomalies (PCH) observed in the stratosphere shown in Figure 11. Meanwhile a deficit of high latitude blocking represented by cold/negative PCHs in the troposphere accompanied or followed the strengthening PV (Figure 11). The strong PV and the lack of high latitude blocking/positive AO mutually reinforced each other for the remainder of the winter, represented by the cold/negative PCHs throughout the atmospheric column. The strong PV helped delay the Final Warming until May contributing to the NH’s largest-ever-ozone-hole ever observed.
Figure 11. Observed daily polar cap height (i. e, area-averaged geopotential heights poleward of 60°N) standardized anomalies from October 1 2019 through March 31 2020.
The remainder of the winter was dominated by a strong PV, characterized by a circular PV with the most negative geopotential height anomalies in the center of the PV (Figure 12a). The tropospheric circulation resembled an annulus with relatively low geopotential heights over the Arctic ringed by relatively high geopotential heights across the mid-latitudes (Figure 12b). There was an uncharacteristic lack of waves in the troposphere or highly anomalous zonal flow that kept cold Arctic air and milder air to the south well separated.

Both North America but especially Eurasia were dominated by above to well above temperatures the remainder of the winter with the exceptions of Eastern Siberia, Alaska, Northern Canada and Greenland (Figure 13).
Figure 13. a) Observed average surface temperature anomalies (°C; shading) for January 1- February 28, 2020.
The only meaningful period of active WAFz for the remainder of that winter was in early February (Figure 4). Any other winter this would be hardly worth a mention, but it did seem to result in stretched/ reflective PV event in early February (Figure 14a). In the mid-troposphere ridging developed in the Gulf of Alaska with downstream troughing east of the Rockies (Figure 14b).

It would be a stretch to say it brought a meaningful period of cold weather to the US but maybe at least a respite from record warm temperatures, certainly to the Plains (Figure 15). Meanwhile no letting up from the record warm temperatures across Europe and Asia.

Late winter
I see little reason to discuss the late winter period as it was a continuation of January and February as seen in Figure 11. The mostly circular shape of the PV and the deep negative geopotential height anomalies over the Arctic (Figure 16a) are characteristic of a strong PV as observed throughout January and February. Meanwhile the mid-tropospheric pattern mostly resembles an annulus or donut with low heights over the Arctic ringed by high heights across the mid-latitudes (Figure 16b).

Given the strong PV/positive AO not surprisingly the Eastern US, Europe and Northern Asia are all mild (Figure 17).
Figure 17. a) Observed average surface temperature anomalies (°C; shading) for March 1 – 31, 2020.
Observed winter circulation
In Figure 18 I show the winter mean (December-February) circulation in the mid-stratosphere (10 hPa geopotential heights) and mid-troposphere (500 hPa geopotential heights). The strong stratospheric PV in January and February is evident on the winter mean anomalies. Negative height anomalies cover the Arctic with positive height anomalies across the mid-latitudes readily recognizable as a classic strong PV/positive AO pattern. The coupling of this pattern clearly translates into a related pattern in the troposphere. The Central Arctic is characterized by negative height anomalies with mostly positive height anomalies across the mid-latitudes. This is a classic example of downward propagation of geopotential height anomalies from the stratosphere to the troposphere related to a positive AO in both the stratosphere and troposphere. I would just add that the PV is not perfectly circular in shape and suggests some elongation or stretching towards North America. This is probably some residual from the weak disruptions of the PV related mostly to wave reflection in December and to a lesser extent in February.
Figure 18. a) Observed average 10 hPa geopotential heights (dam; contours) and geopotential height anomalies (m; shading) across the Northern Hemisphere for December 1, 2019 – February 28, 2020. b) Observed average 500 hPa geopotential heights (dam; contours) and geopotential height anomalies (m; shading) across the Northern Hemisphere from December 1, 2019 – February 28, 2020.
Given the strong even classical positive AO both in the troposphere and the stratosphere it is not surprising that the surface temperature anomaly pattern for the winter projects strongly on to the surface temperature pattern associated with a positive AO. Above normal temperatures are nearly universal across the US, Europe and Asia (Figure 19). The one region of below normal temperatures is across the North American Arctic including Alaska, Northern Canada and Greenland. Below normal temperatures were also observed in parts of Eastern Siberia. The observed cold Greenland and warm Northern Europe is also the classical temperature anomaly pattern associated with a positive North Atlantic Oscillation.

Winter forecasts
The main predictors in the AER winter forecast are October Eurasian SCE, the Arctic sea ice anomaly and El Niño. The dynamical models rely strongly on ENSO that was neutral and therefore were mostly forced by global warming (my opinion). The AER forecast and those from key dynamical models for NH winter surface temperature anomalies are shown in Figure 1 and the observed temperature anomalies are shown in Figure 19. Dynamical models include the national multi-model ensemble (NMME- an ensemble of North American models) forecast for NH temperatures, the NOAA CFSv2 and the European model ensemble (C3S) in Figure 1.
As is the case every winter now, the dynamical models predict almost universal above normal temperatures across the NH continents. The AER forecast was colder especially across Asia. But in a digression or divergence from other recent winter forecasts, the warmer the forecast the better, and clearly the dynamical models performed better than colder AER forecast. Of the four forecasts shown, the warmest CFS likely performed best, at least by my eye.
Concluding remarks
I believe that Arctic boundary forcings are the best available predictors of the possible behavior of the polar vortex. I do think that the extensive snow cover across Eurasia in the fall favored a more disrupted PV relative to a strong PV. Though Arctic sea ice was low, sea ice extent in the Barents Kara Seas was near normal and this did not favor a more disrupted PV at least relative to recent winters. My recent work would suggest that extensive fall Eurasian snow cover but relatively more extensive Barents-Kara sea ice would favor more stretching/reflection PV events rather than the large disruptions associated with SSWs. The PV was stretched for much of November and December but then went into beast mode with a lack of high altitude blocking in the troposphere and the strong PV and lack of high latitude blocking seeming to feed off each other leading to almost a runaway warm pattern that strongly projects onto the positive AO across the NH continents, especially Eurasia.
It is understood that to form a stretched PV a reflective layer is required in the stratosphere which can shield the PV from upwelling standing or Rossby wave energy from the troposphere allowing the PV to strengthen or accelerate. I think an almost textbook example of this is winter 2010/11. I would add that 2019/20 is another textbook example of this. But had high altitude blocking remained in place, stretched or reflective PV events would have continued over the course of the winter, even if the PV remained strong, this occurred in winter 2021/22. Why high latitude blocking completely disappeared with only one minor stretched event in early February, I don’t have any good answers, just guesses.
In my mind, the winter of 2019/20 is the exception that proves the rule. The winter of 2019/20 cannot be the paradigm for climate change winters simply because Arctic amplification all but disappeared. Arctic amplification is well established in theory and in the dynamical model climate projections. Why did the Arctic “circle the wagons” sort of speak, locking any cold air in the Central and North American Arctic, I don’t have a good answer. I could throw out strongly positive IOD but that is without any support from the literature as far as I know and certainly has no support from my own research. Of course, one can always attribute a poor forecast to noise or intrinsic variability of the climate system, but I always find that answer unsatisfying.

Has Europe always had such severe winters?
Winters in Europe, as you know, due to the proximity to the Atlantic, as a rule, are much milder than in Russia. The farther to the east, the more the influence of the rapidly cooling continent affects. But how will air currents develop in the troposphere, what processes will prevail – western or eastern? – the situation changes from year to year, and even during one winter, changes in the forms of atmospheric circulation can occur. When Eastern processes prevail, the “Russian winter” comes to Europe. But even in warm winters, the invasion of the cold of the north for Europe can turn into serious difficulties. The peculiarity of the geographical position of Europe is such that periods of comfortable mild weather can be abruptly replaced by bad weather, entailing significant problems and damage for Europeans, especially in winter.
Air Aurial anomalies (0.1ºС) in Europe in December 1891-2010. |
Here are some retrospective excerpts from recent weather reports.
2001:
Western Europe began the year with unusually warm weather. However, already in February, heat was retained only in the south of Europe (anomaly 2°C), and cold came to the north (anomalies -2 … -3°C), in March the anomalies increased to -4 … -5°C. Cold prevailed throughout Western Europe in April as well. Even in the north of Italy, in Austria and southern Germany frosts were repeatedly noted.
November and especially December in Western Europe turned out to be unusually cold again. December 2001 was the coldest December since the beginning of the last century. The previous cold record belonged to 1917. Even in Spain and southern France in December 2001. the temperature dropped to -18…-20 °С and lower. Large negative anomalies formed in the east of Europe – in Greece, Romania, Slovakia, Ukraine, Belarus (down to -6 °С), frosts here on some days reached -30 °С.
2002:
The winter was warm and generally did not bring much hardship.
2003:
The beginning of the year turned out to be very cold for Europeans, and January became the frostiest in the last 16 years. In France, Spain and Portugal, the weather was very similar to the “Russian winter”. The average monthly air temperature in January and February in most European countries was below the norm by 2-4°C, and in Hungary even by 5-6°C. The weather during these months was very unstable. Severe cooling was replaced by rapid warming. During one of them, an ice flood in the north-east of Romania caused huge economic damage to the country, heavy rains in the Benelux countries, in Germany, in northern France, in the UK, the Czech Republic and Slovakia caused a rise in water in the rivers, floods began. The melting of the Alpine snows at this time only exacerbated the situation. However, then in most European countries, the amount of precipitation began to decline sharply, and there was a trend towards a shortage of precipitation, which led to a severe drought in the summer.
An exception was the Mediterranean basin, which suffered from bad weather for a long time. February was especially difficult. From Spain to Israel to Lebanon, more than twice the normal amount of rain fell, often with unusual snow. Snow storms hit the east of Spain, then the Bosphorus, then Israel, paralyzing traffic on the roads, in ports and in the air.
At the same time, cold air masses of Arctic origin more than once invaded the European continent. So, on Christmas Eve, a hurricane swept over Europe (wind speed in some places exceeded 40 m / s) led to a sharp cooling, which was accompanied by catastrophic snowfalls. Ice and sleet turned the freeways into a skating rink. Tens of thousands of people on the eve of the holiday were blocked in cars, trains and airport terminals. In the mountains of Bavaria, the air temperature dropped to -40 °C.
2004:
2004 was a generous year for natural disasters. It began with severe January cold weather in almost all of Europe. In the UK, the thermometer dropped to such unusually low levels that it gave rise to the local media to call the current situation “Siberian frosts”. The weather was very cold in Poland and the Baltic countries. In Turkey and Romania, people died from frost, and even in the vicinity of Madrid, a temperature of -20 ° was recorded. The cold was accompanied by intense precipitation almost throughout the entire territory, except for Scandinavia, the Baltic states and part of the Iberian Peninsula. Hurricanes with showers hit the UK, France, Denmark, the Benelux countries; floods began in Paris, Baden-Baden and Bavaria. Romania and Bulgaria have experienced their heaviest snowfalls in 40 years. Due to a snow storm, traffic through the Bosphorus was closed. In Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, Turkey, Ukraine, Israel, 2-3 monthly rainfall fell. In February, the elements continued to rage: heavy snowfalls paralyzed Greece, northern Italy and the Crimea; snowfalls, downpours and floods were noted in England and Wales.
2005:
If 2004 began in Europe with severe cold, then at the beginning of 2005, on the contrary, unusual heat came here. In a number of countries, for the first time in the dead of winter, spring phenological phenomena were noted – flowering of plants and fruit trees. The average monthly air temperature exceeded the norm in Central and Eastern Europe by 2-5º, and in Scandinavia by 4-6º. Only in the extreme south of Europe in Italy, Spain and Portugal was the air temperature below normal. In the mountains of northern Italy, frosts reached 30º, and in Rome the thermometer dropped almost to zero. Snow cyclones brought heavy snowfalls to Scandinavia and Eastern Europe. It was snowing even in the vicinity of Rome, Naples and Sardinia. Warm January weather gave way to February cold weather, which dominated most of the month throughout Europe, with the exception of Scandinavia and Great Britain. In Bulgaria, the air temperature dropped to -34º, which has not happened here for more than 50 years. Frosts paralyzed the activities of public utilities in Bosnia. Hospitals, schools and other children’s institutions were closed. In Greece, the thermometer dropped below -20º. Many lakes have frozen over, something that has never happened here. In France, extremely low temperatures in February led to an overall coldest winter in 33 years, although there were no severe colds in December and January. In early February, heavy snowfalls hit Austria, Germany, Bulgaria, Greece, and Albania. Snow drifts repeatedly paralyzed traffic on the roads. In many European countries, the monthly norms of precipitation were exceeded by 2-2.5 times.
Spring came to Europe late. Winter cold continued and even intensified in the first days of March. In France, the thermometer dropped below -30º; there has not been such a cold at this time of the year for the past 33 years. A similar air temperature was recorded in the south of Germany, which has not been observed here since 1901. In Rome, on the night of March 1st to 2nd, the lowest air temperature over the past 100 years was recorded, and in the mountainous regions of Italy, where the air temperature dropped to -32º – over the past 200 years. All temperature records were broken in sunny Spain: frosts hit 25º in the province of Navarre. At the other end of Europe: in the Czech Republic, Slovenia, Slovakia – the cold in March reached 30º. If in the second half of the month spring did come to the west of Europe, then in Eastern Europe the cold remained until the end of the month.
The bad weather that hit Europe at the end of November brought heavy snowfalls that turned into snowstorms, which is an extremely rare occurrence at this time of the year. In Münster (Germany), up to 50 cm fell in a month. snow. This has never happened here. Heavy rains flooded Italy. River level The Tiber in the Italian capital has risen to its highest level in 50 years. Across Europe, rail, air and road transport were disrupted.
Cold weather persisted in Western Europe in December as well. This was especially felt by residents of Spain and the south of France, where the average air temperature for the month turned out to be 2-3º below the norm. All of Europe in December was under a thick layer of snow. In places, up to 150 mm of precipitation fell during the day. As a result, roads were paralyzed and flights were cancelled. In the Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary and some other countries, the amount of precipitation for the month exceeded the norm by 2-2.5 times.
2006:
The bad weather with severe cooling that hit Europe in the last month of autumn and persisted until the end of 2005 continued into the beginning of the new year 2006. The arctic cold for a long time bound almost the entire Eurasian space from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean with frost. The cold also penetrated the south of Eastern Europe. In Georgia, the air temperature dropped to -30°; in the east of Ukraine – up to -40 ° (there have not been such frosts here for more than 100 years). Thirty-degree frosts came to Poland. Deaths from hypothermia have been registered in Ukraine, Romania, Poland, the Czech Republic, Bulgaria, and Greece. In Poland alone, 140 people died from the cold.
The frosts and snowfalls that hit Europe this winter have led to the fact that a stable snow cover has been established in latitudes much more southerly than usual. All Eastern and most of Central Europe are covered with snow. Snow keeps even in the north of Greece.
In the last month of winter, the western part of the temperate latitudes of the Eastern Hemisphere was under the influence of cold air masses. Therefore, in February, the average monthly air temperature throughout Europe, with the exception of Scandinavia, was significantly below the norm. In Eastern Europe, in Belarus, in eastern Ukraine (in Sumy, Poltava, Kharkiv, Dnepropetrovsk regions), in southern Finland, in Latvia, Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, as well as in the extreme west of the continent in France and Spain, it was colder than usual on average by 2-3° … In Kosovo, heavy rains and melting snow led to flooding at the end of February.
Spring did not come to Europe for a long time. Back in March, frequent intrusions of arctic air led to a sharp drop in temperature. So, for example, in Great Britain it dropped to -6°, which is absolutely not typical here for spring weather. As a result, the average temperature in March across Europe as a whole turned out to be below the norm. The last time this happened was 10 years ago in 1996. In Trondheim, the anomaly of the mean monthly air temperature was -5.3°, in Helsinki – -3.8°, in Ljubljana and Minsk – -3.1°, in Berlin – -2.8°, in Warsaw – -2.6 °, in Copenhagen – -2.3 °, in Prague – -2.1 °.
2007 :
Winter 2006-2007 in Europe was one of the warmest (due to December and January).
In the first month of the new year, the anomalies of average monthly air temperature exceeded 2-6°, and January 2007 became the warmest in the history of the continent. The average air temperature for the month was 0.7° higher than the previous maximum set in 1936. Even in the first ten days of the month on the French Riviera, the air temperature was 19°. The swimming season has reopened, the cherry blossoms have blossomed. In France, the record for the maximum air temperature for this month, set in 1922, was broken. However, in the third decade, nature began to repay its debts to Europe for cold and snow.
At the beginning of the year, precipitation fell mainly in the countries of Northern and Eastern Europe. In places in the Baltic Republics, in Germany, Poland, the anomalies amounted to 200-300%. Abundant rains and winds accompanied a powerful storm system that passed through the north of the continent in mid-January. The wind speed exceeded 45 m/s. Snow fell in Europe only in the third decade of January, and the intensity of snowfall was immediately very high. Roads in Austria, the Czech Republic, Sweden were blocked by fresh snow, which led to numerous accidents and casualties. And in the south of Europe, precipitation was still not observed. On about. Crete had not seen them for three months in a row. Olive trees are under threat. Although the last month of winter saw sufficient precipitation in most of Europe, however, in the Alpine countries, in southeastern Europe, in Turkey, Finland and in southern Sweden, they were still noticeably less than the norm. For the ski resorts of France, Switzerland, Austria, this was a disaster. In fact, the winter holiday season is broken here. But on the 7th and 8th of February, the south of Great Britain was hit by a snowfall, recognized by British meteorologists as the heaviest not only for the whole winter, but also for the last few years. It resulted in airport closures, commuter rail shutdowns that caused havoc during peak hours, and miles of traffic jams on freeways. The damage from this natural disaster is estimated at &400 million. turned out to be the warmest in Europe since 1892 g, and the same as in the ETR, mainly due to anomalously warm December and January.
2008:
The winter of 2008 was the warmest since 2007.
Warm weather prevailed in Europe at the beginning of the year. In most of central Europe, temperature anomalies in January amounted to +2°…+3°, and in Scandinavia – +5°…+7°. As a result, the temperature of January 2008, averaged over the entire area of the continent, is the second in the ranked series. Only January of the previous year, 2007, turned out to be somewhat warmer. A lot of precipitation fell in the north of Europe: Germany, Poland, Scandinavian countries (1.5-2.0 norms).
Heavy snowfalls hit Bulgaria and Romania at the beginning of the month. Here, as well as in the west of the continent, in France and Great Britain, precipitation for the month was the norm. The rest of Europe was mostly dry.
The heat remained in February as well. Anomalies of average monthly air temperature turned out to be approximately the same as in the previous month. In a number of countries, new records of daily air temperature have been set. February 2008 is the fourth warmest in Europe with 1891 year. The second warmest was the winter. Its average temperature is 0.4° less than in the previous winter of 2006/2007, which is recognized as the warmest in the history of the continent. Now the winter of 2007/2008 is recognized as the warmest one. in Scandinavia. Few precipitations were observed in February. Only Finland, Sweden and Norway could boast of their abundance. Here, the amount of precipitation that fell during the month was mainly the norm, and in some places even slightly more. At times, wet and heavy snow fell in Greece and Turkey.
2009:
At the beginning of January, cold weather hit Europe. The air temperature in the north of Germany and Poland dropped to -25°…-29°. Colds like these have not been seen in the UK and Ireland since January 1991. Coastal sea ice appeared off the coast of England and Wales, extending up to 800 meters into the open sea. This has not been seen here for 18 years. In the Dutch port of Rotterdam, icebreakers had to be used to escort ships, which last happened 13 years ago. Then, however, the air temperature in Western and Central Europe returned to its usual values. However, the cold beginning of the month was enough for the monthly average temperature to drop below normal. In Belgium, Holland, northern France and Germany, it was 2° or more colder than usual. In Brussels, the anomaly is -2.0°, in Paris and Berlin – -2.2°, in Nuremberg – -2.8°.
During January, Europe repeatedly fell into snow captivity, then it was flooded with rain. The strongest showers took place in the Balkans, where in some places more than 100 mm of precipitation fell in a day. Therefore, their monthly amounts in Serbia, Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia, Macedonia, as well as in the west of Turkey, exceeded the norm by 1. 5-2.0 times. Both at the beginning and at the end of the month, snowstorms hit France, northern Spain and Italy. The wind speed exceeded 50m/s and in some places snowdrifts reached a height of two meters, which led to the closure of airports and the cessation of traffic on the roads. France has not seen such snowfalls for more than 20 years. At the Milan Zoo, the animals were reportedly fed warm oatmeal and croissants, as normal food was quickly covered in snow and froze. In Southern Europe, precipitation in general for the month was more than the norm, approximately 1.5-2.0 times, and in Central and Northern Europe it was about the norm or less.
In February, conditions were generally close to normal, however, in the western part of Europe it was somewhat colder than usual, and in the eastern part – warmer. New maximums of daily air temperature were registered in Ukraine and Moldova. Last winter in Europe became noticeably colder than the previous two, but still its average temperature exceeded the norm.
In February, the continent, as in January, was either covered with snow or flooded with rain. At the beginning of the month, heavy snowfalls hit the UK, western France, and Spain. In the UK, they are rated as the strongest in the last 20 years. The snow penetrated far to the south, and even the Canary Islands were covered with a white blanket. In the middle of the month, snow fell on Sicily and at the same time powerful downpours whipped through the territories of the countries of southeastern Europe. And at the end of the month, snow charges hit the Mediterranean coast of Turkey. In the health resort beloved by Russians – Antalya – for the first time, local residents saw snow on the streets of their resort.
2010:
At the beginning of the year, the Siberian cold covered Europe. January 2010 was called “Russian winter” here. In Norway, Germany, Poland, Romania, Latvia, Belarus, Ukraine, Turkey, the thermometer dropped to record lows. In Stockholm, the average temperature anomaly was -5°, Berlin – -4.8°, Warsaw – -4.9°, Prague – -2.6°. Frosts raged from England to the Baltic states and Ukraine. Off the coast of Germany, for the first time in the last 25 years, icebreakers were used to guide ships to the port. coastal ice thickness exceeded 30 cm. Europeans have not seen such cold weather since 1987 True, those frosts were even more severe. For the first time in all these years, the temperature in January was below normal.
Only the countries of the southern part of the continent were in relative warmth: in Greece, Bulgaria, Italy anomalies were about +1°.
Heavy and sleet covered Central and Eastern Europe in January. Snowdrifts up to 1.5m. covered Poland and Germany. Due to snowfall, many ski resorts had to be closed. Traffic on the autobahns came to a halt. For the first time in 50 years, we saw snow in the south of Spain in Seville. Cyclones passed through the countries of Southern Europe in a continuous succession, flooding Spain, southern Italy, the Balkans, Turkey, and Cyprus with rain. In Montenegro and Albania, heavy rains have led to the highest rise in water levels in the border lake Skadar in 50 years. The amount of precipitation for the month exceeded the norm in some places by 2-4 times. And only in Northern Europe it was dry.
And in February, most of Europe, except for the southern countries, continued to suffer from severe frosts. This is especially true for Scandinavia, where the average monthly temperature anomalies are -2°…-4°. On some nights, the thermometer in Norway and Sweden fell below -40°. In general, the last winter for Europeans became very cold. Colds of similar duration were absent here for almost 20 years. This winter, the cold “Siberian anticyclone” was clearly stronger than the warm Atlantic cyclones that usually warm Europe at this time of the year.
Cyclones that crossed Europe, both along the southern and northern trajectories, carried a large amount of precipitation to almost all countries of the continent. Less than the norm was observed only in certain areas of Scandinavia and Germany, and in the rest of the territory – the norm and more. Moreover, in many countries: Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, the countries of the Balkan Peninsula, Belarus, Ukraine – they exceeded the norm by 2-4 times. For the first time in a quarter of a century, snow fell on the streets of Rome.
On the last day of the month Europe was hit by one of the most ferocious hurricanes. The element swept over Portugal, Spain, France and claimed the lives of dozens of people who, in general, could not leave their homes when they were flooded with water due to a dam break. Powerful streams destroyed the plantings, washed away the fertile layer of the earth on hundreds of hectares. 4500 hectares of agricultural land are not subject to restoration. Recently, hurricanes on the west coast of France have become an increasingly frequent occurrence.
Last winter, according to the British Meteorological Service, was the harshest and snowiest in England for the last 30 years.
2011:
In December 2010, cold air took over all of Europe.
Average air temperature anomalies (ºС) in Europe in December 2010 |
The average temperature of the month repeated the absolute minimum set in 1933g. Almost everywhere the anomalies of mean monthly air temperature are negative. Ireland has experienced the worst cold in the past 25 years. London, which has the longest record of weather records, has an absolute minimum air temperature in December, and the average temperature of the month is the lowest since 1890. The Swedish Meteorological Service reported that December 2010. – the coldest in the country over the past 110 years. Monthly average temperature anomalies were: -6.6º in Oslo, -6.4º in Stockholm, -6.1º in Berlin, -5.0º in Belfast and Prague, -4.7º in Copenhagen, -4.6º in Warsaw and Vilnius, -4.6º in Helsinki and Riga – -4.3º, Brussels – -4.1º, Paris – -3.7º, Vienna – -3.4º, Kyiv – -2.0º. In many countries of the continent, new minimums of daily temperatures have been set. Dozens of people became victims of cold weather in Poland, Germany, Austria, Great Britain.
The whole of Europe was drowned in snow and rain. Cyclones carried showers to the Balkans and Italy. In Serbia, the water level in the rivers has risen to the highest levels in the last 100 years. Again, as in January 2010, Skadar Lake burst its banks. Downpours have caused massive flooding and landslides in Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina. About 70% of the territory of Montenegro was under water. In Albania, these floods are considered the worst in the history of the country. The central part of Venice was flooded. Snowfalls covered Europe from Britain to the Urals. The snow paralyzed traffic. The airfields of Scotland, England, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Switzerland were closed. Tens of thousands of passengers are stranded in airports, trains and on the autobahns. Scotland hit by heaviest snowfall since 1963g. Snow fell on the island of Capri for the first time in history. Almost everywhere in Europe, the amount of precipitation for the month blocked the norm by 1.5-3.0 times.
After a strong December cold, very warm weather came to Europe in January. In the middle of the month the air temperature rose to +10º…+15º. But in general, for the month it turned out to be close to normal in most countries, with the exception of Eastern Europe, where the temperature exceeded the norm by about 2º (Poland, Hungary, Romania, Ukraine, the Baltic countries, Belarus).
Precipitation this month was excessively high only in the Baltic countries (2.0-2.5 norms), near the norm in the north of the continent (Poland, Germany, Benelux countries) and less than the norm in the countries located to the south. Due to the strong warming, there was a rapid melting of snow, which led to powerful floods in Germany, Holland, Belgium, and France. In February, temperature conditions were close to normal in most of Europe. However, in the east and northeast of the continent (Ukraine, Belarus, the Baltic countries, Sweden, Finland, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia, Croatia, Romania, Moldova) it was noticeably colder than usual (anomalies -2 . .. -3º, and in Finland up to -5…-6º). New records for the minimum daily air temperature were also observed here. Fast ice has formed along the coast of Ukraine in the Black and Azov Seas. This phenomenon is quite rare. So, in Odessa it was last observed 30 years ago.
Germany in March 2023 – rest and weather in Germany

Weather in Germany in March
March in Germany is considered a transitional period. This is not a cold winter for a long time, but not quite a warm spring either. The first days of the month refer to the spring only calendar: sudden frosts, gusty winds and heavy rains are not ruled out. But closer to the middle of the month, even heat-loving individuals can already be advised to visit the country. The weather forecast is getting better every day, and the need for excessively warm clothes disappears, significantly easing the tourist burden. Thaws begin everywhere, the air slowly but surely warms up to moderate levels, the sky frowns less and less, and the frequency of sudden temperature changes is significantly reduced. The only place where negative indicators are recorded are mountainous regions, where spring comes with a decent delay. Almost all snow resorts have a southern location, but, despite the mild climate, a stable cover remains there until mid-late March, and in some regions it lingers until the first decade of April.

In March, at the lower stations, the daytime air temperature varies within +5..+8 °C (the higher the altitude, the lower the marks), and the night temperature falls within the range of +0..-2°C. However, it should be understood that even in the Alps, the weather sometimes brings unpleasant surprises. It can be freezing rain with snow, or a blizzard. In the plains, winter is retreating much faster, in particular in the western provinces. So, in Mainz, Cologne and Düsseldorf in the light part of the day they fix from + 10 ° С to + 12 ° С. But this is not the ceiling. On the sunniest days, the outdoor thermometer shows +17..+20°С. But after sunset, a cold snap is inevitable, in the evening about +1..+4°С. Going here, do not forget to take an umbrella with you, as precipitation is observed during half the days of the month. In the capital, the temperature is also rising, but somewhat more slowly. At lunchtime in Berlin – from +8°С to +10°С, and at night – 0..+2°С. But the rains do not happen so often – about once every 3-4 days. Munich is a couple of degrees warmer, but since the landscape is quite mountainous, temperature fluctuations here are quite common.
What to do in Germany in March?
Spring is always a time of hopes and dreams. The time of awakening not only nature, but also the soul. During this period, somehow in a special way I want new events in life, relaxation and adventure. Germany is a great option for those who want to radically change the situation, expand their horizons, but are not ready for a long flight. March in this country is ideal for educational purposes and gastronomic tourism. Also, the month is not bad for testing German ski slopes.

This month, tours are sold to ski centers such as Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Berchstesgaden and Oberstdorf.
Entertainment and excursions
In mid-March, nature is slowly reborn. The grass is green all around, young leaves appear on the trees, flowers bloom everywhere. Tulips look especially luxurious, with which many flower beds are acquired by the last days of the month. All this splendor sets the tone for an upbeat mood, causes a surge of bright feelings and a desire to be in the fresh air as much as possible, admiring the local beauties. Since March, many tourists and the Germans themselves have shown an increased interest in gardens and parks, walks in which are so lovely. If you have little travelers with you, be sure to take them to one of the German zoos. In Russia, one can only dream of such a number of living corners. Many of them are ranked among the best zoological parks in the world. The most-most, according to most travelers, are Zoo Dortmund, divided into several climatic zones, Zoologischer Garten Berlin, the leader in the number of species of animal fauna, and Zoo Frankfurt, covering an area of 12 hectares, and the largest in Europe “Münchener Tierpark Hellabrunn”.
Amusement parks, which have gathered all kinds of attractions and wonders on their territory, deserve no less attention. To get around all of Europe in one day, go to Europa Park in the north-west of the country, and to see spectacular shows and fly in space, go to Phantasialand near Cologne. Both children and adults are delighted with the world-famous Legoland. True, you can get into it no earlier than March 27.

Coronavirus and heat: what summer will be like in Europe
Europe
The coronavirus pandemic has put global warming behind us, but as summer approaches, the question arises whether Europe is in danger of repeating the record temperatures of past years. Experts see a threat elsewhere.
Warm, cloudless skies and blooming gardens – the beginning of April in Germany and other parts of Europe turned out to be as in the picture, but restrictions due to the coronavirus pandemic do not allow you to enjoy spring to the fullest. And while the dry weather is ideal for walking, the lack of rain in some regions for weeks is a cause for concern for farmers. Now, during the period of active growth, plants especially need moisture. The threat of harvest losses is one of the emerging problems that – in parallel with the coronavirus – Europe may face in the summer.
How German meteorologists evaluate the beginning of the year
So far, little has been said about the weather. German farmers seem to be more concerned about a shortage of seasonal workers as the fight against the pandemic has led to border closures. The need to take urgent action against the spread of the coronavirus has overshadowed all other top news, including the effects of climate change, which were discussed in connection with the unprecedented forest fires in January in Australia, and before that in Brazil.

But the warming has not disappeared. “January was warmer than normal in Germany on average, the trend of recent years will continue, there is no hint that global warming will slow down or weaken,” Andreas Becker, an employee of the German weather service Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD), told DW. in Frankfurt am Main.
“From the beginning of the year we had two very dry months – January and March, and February turned out to be abundant in precipitation,” the meteorologist continues. The water level in the middle reaches of the Rhine, Germany’s largest river, rose sharply in early March to above six meters, and when the rains stopped, fell below the annual average of 2.5 meters and continues to decline.
February rainstorms partially offset the loss of soil moisture over the past two years, 2019 and 2018, Becker said. Then in Europe in the summer there was a record heat wave with temperatures above 40 degrees. At the same time, Becker points out that the top layer of soil, necessary for plants, from 20 to 50 centimeters, recovered better, and at a depth of up to two meters, which is important for trees, “remnants of a deficit” of moisture remained. Now the situation is worsening again due to the lack of rain in March. In Germany, they fell only 50-75 percent of the norm, states Becker. For meteorologists, this is already on the verge of drought.
Eastern Europe suffers from the lack of moisture more than others
In Eastern Europe, including partly in the eastern lands of Germany, things are even worse, said Andreas Marx (Andreas Marx), employee of the Leipzig-based Center for Environmental Research named after Helmholtz (Helmholtz-Zentrum für Umweltforschung, UFZ). “Over the past three years, there has been an unusual rainfall deficit in large parts of Europe – northern Germany, parts of Poland, Russia, Belarus, Ukraine and Romania,” Marks told DW.

In addition, the phenomenon was accompanied by “unusually high temperatures”. The problem has aggravated due to a winter with little snow, although the absence of severe frosts, the expert believes, can also play a positive role: “When the ground freezes, all the moisture from the precipitation flows into the rivers, and little gets into the soil in the fields.” In Germany, the mild winter in February helped saturate the soil with moisture, Marx said.
No rainfall for several weeks – for Europe this is “still within the normal range”, says the expert. Unusual in recent years, Marx calls the increased stability of the weather in connection with the so-called “jet stream” (jet stream). “It’s a strong current of air at an altitude of about 10,300 meters from west to east,” Marx explains. stable weather in Europe for a long time. This caused a drought in Germany in the summer of 2018.”
How dry summer can be -2020
Asked in early April what the weather will be like in summer, meteorologists are reluctant to answer – any forecast longer than 7-14 days is considered unreliable. Both Becker of the German Meteorological Service and Marx of the Helmholtz Center note that in Europe, factors such as mountains, seas and the Atlantic Ocean make the weather less predictable than, for example, in water-surrounded Australia.

In general, both experts assume that the summer will be slightly warmer than normal. In Germany, the expected DWD deviation from the long-term norm can be moderate and amount to 0.5-1 degrees Celsius. In Europe as a whole, the weather is not only expected to be warmer but also “drier than usual” through mid-summer, Marks says, citing up-to-date data from the European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF).
As for the record temperatures in summer, according to Marx, he is less interested in them as a specialist than in the media. “Much more importantly, heat waves, that is, temperatures above 30 degrees, have become longer almost all over the world,” the expert shares. “Typically, Leipzig has 7-8 hot days a year, in 2018 there were 36, and in 2019-m – 29. That is, we are dealing with an average increase of three to four times, and this has consequences for both human health and agriculture. , experts have no reason to expect it to be any different this year, which means that Europeans may have to fight the coronavirus in a prolonged heat wave, which even under normal conditions is especially difficult for older people, and they, during the spread of coronavirus – the main risk group
There are other negative factors as well. In hot weather, it is more difficult to wear a protective mask on the face. Finally, drought-induced wildfires can lead to heavy smoke, and this is an additional blow to the lungs of sick people who are affected by the coronavirus. Against this background, the forecast of Andreas Becker from DWD looks almost optimistic. The meteorologist is sure that apocalyptic fires, as in Australia, Europe, due to the climate and the proximity of the Atlantic, are not threatened.

Trips abroad in March are shown to those who could not relax in the winter and are no longer able to wait for the summer. The first rays of the sun, and perhaps the warm wind of this border month, awaken the spirit of adventurism. If you have long dreamed of a spring trip to the European part of the continent, go without delay. And we will tell you where is the best place to go to Europe in March.

March, as it was necessary for the start of the new warmth, as it was necessary , and therefore it is worth choosing it for a trip to Europe. The weather here at this time, however, is more conducive to sightseeing routes or skiing, if we are talking about the northern countries. But if you plan a vacation at the end of the month and get out to the southern part of the continent, then you can bask under the rays of the warm European sun.
Thus, this month has many advantages:
- most of the European countries are at the mercy of a warm atmospheric front, the temperature of which ranges from 10 to 15 degrees with a positive mark;
- there is practically no snow by March, and if it rains, it is short and warm in spring;
- tourists prefer to spend the beginning of spring in preparation for the summer season, and therefore their flow is not so great;
- since March is considered the off-season, prices in hotels and major resorts are affordable even for a tourist with an average income.
The greatest advantage of the month is the flowering of nature, which manifests itself in completely different ways in each country.
Cheap holidays
Where to go to Europe in March cheaply? Of course, to the Czech Republic. If in most of the Russian territory spring is still arguing with winter regarding its rights, then here it comes without delay.
When planning a trip, pay more attention to shoes than clothes. If from the latter you need a light coat or jacket, then you need to choose comfortable shoes and in several options, since you will have to walk a lot. An umbrella does not hurt at all, since the Czech capital is known for the changeability of the weather not only throughout the month, but even during the day. In addition, Prague can hardly be called the sunniest European city. And yet this trip will be a real journey into spring.
You can see all the sights here both on foot and from a floating vehicle, since it is in March that navigation on the Vltava resumes.
Being here in the spring, you can take part in the final part of the Bohemian carnival, dedicated to Maslenitsa. Do not forget to grab some old high-society outfit for this.
Romantic trip
Paris is the best place to create a romantic atmosphere. Celebrating International Women’s Day here will be very symbolic. At the beginning of March, the city of love begins to wake up from its winter sleep and throws off the dull dullness of the landscapes. And although you will still not find the lush flowering of gardens at this time of the year, you will watch the awakening of nature to your heart’s content.
If you want to remember truly spring Paris, then it is better to come on the twentieth of the month, especially since the French themselves time the arrival of spring to the spring solstice – March 21st.
Another city where you can relax in March in Europe under a romantic flag is Venice. It’s no secret that the main attraction of the city of lovers is gondola rides. It is in March that the channel will please you with the absence of all the variety of aromas characteristic of it in the hot season.
Where to have fun
Fans of fun and exciting pastime should treat themselves to a trip to Dublin. After all, it is in March that the most colorful event of the year takes place here – the celebration of St. Patrick’s Day.
In this regard, you need to move from continental Europe to island Europe between March 14 and 18. Do not forget to replenish your wardrobe with green clothes, since it is he who is the symbol of this saint.
All Irish cities, including Dublin, will dress up in green and hold colorful parades with a sea of dark beer, kind clowns and cheerful Irish songs and dances.
And if winter is not enough for you, then move on to the Scandinavian part of Europe. There you will still have time to ride deer and visit the residence of Santa, who has not yet gone on vacation.
We go to the sea or to the mountains
It would be a big mistake to exclude a beach holiday in Europe from your options in March. While its northern part is still dominated by snows, and the central one is enjoying the first buds and blooming snowdrops, the southern countries are preparing to welcome beach lovers.
The first in the list of such resorts is, of course, the Spanish Tenerife. The air temperature at this time in the Canary Islands ranges from 22-24 degrees. It will not be a big mistake if you come here at any other time of the year. The island of eternal spring is quite constant: the unique geographical location of the archipelago invariably promises a warm sea and comfortable air temperature.
Well, if you get bored here, which is unlikely, you can go to the Cote d’Azur of France. The sea there may still be cool, but it will already be possible to sunbathe.
Ski lovers should not be upset if they didn’t manage to get to Europe in winter: the Austrian and Swiss Alps are still quite suitable for such a holiday.

Good luck: how abnormal heat saved Europe from a gas collapse | Articles
The coming New Year presented Europe with a real gift that the inhabitants of the Old World could only expect in the conditions of the gas crisis. Due to abnormally warm weather, it was not blue fuel that was temporarily in short supply, but white snow. At the beginning of the year, gas futures were testing $800 per thousand cubic meters, and in the first week of January they fixed at $1,000. However, experts remind that winter is not over yet and prices are still at a fairly high level. Although with the launch of Nord Stream 2, quotes may return to the levels of the first half of 2021, experts pointed out.
January tan
On New Year’s Eve in some European countries the air temperature exceeded +24°C . The warmest was in Spain – almost summer weather was observed there. For example, in the north of the country in the city of Bilbao, the thermometer showed +24.7 ° C, wrote The Guardian.
+22.7 °C was recorded not far from Madrid, and +20.2 °C in neighboring Avili. This winter temperature has become the absolute maximum since the beginning of observations. The weather was breaking records in Britain, France, Italy, Spain.
The swimming season was opened on the coasts, but the ski season in some regions was under threat. In the Alps, not only real, but also artificial snow is in short supply. This is due to the masses of warm air that came from the Caribbean and North Africa and raised the degrees over the whole of Western Europe.

A weather anomaly saved the inhabitants of the Old World from the gas collapse that many industry experts predicted . Gas futures in Europe fell more than 20% on New Year’s Eve, during trading and prices fell below $800 per thousand cubic meters for the first time since November 10, according to ICE Futures data.
February futures prices on the Dutch TTF index, the most liquid European hub, fell to a low of $765.3, losing 25% below the settlement price the day before . The index fell below the $800 mark for the first time since November 10. The last hour of trading in the outgoing year, futures traded in the range of $780-850. And this despite the fact that on December 21 they reached a historical maximum of $ 2190.4. January 7, trading closed at $976.47 per thousand cubic meters.
A small addition
But not only weather anomalies had an impact on the decline in gas prices. The first “thaw” in the market came with information that LNG tankers bound for Asia are being redirected to Europe , reminded Ekaterina Kosareva, managing partner of WMT Consult.
– Already after the Catholic Christmas it became known that about 20 tankers with American gas were sent to Europe, and another 14 were heading to the EU in anticipation of a final order. In addition, electricity generation at wind farms has increased in Europe, the expert said.

The volume of gas supplied to US LNG plants in December hit a record high of . The United States reached its maximum LNG processing capacity, reaching the corresponding volumes in the region of 423.73 million cubic meters per day. According to Refinitiv data, demand for blue fuel remains extremely high in Europe, which is why the US has increased exports of liquefied natural gas to this region. In December, the country managed to update a historical record for deliveries.
About 30 more gas carriers are expected to arrive in the ports of Belgium, the Netherlands and the UK in January. 13 of them must sail from the United States.
— It is possible that Europe will go through the current heating season without significant shocks, which were previously predicted, and it will not need additional volumes of gas. In addition, at the beginning of this year, new gas liquefaction facilities are expected to be commissioned in the United States, as well as the restoration of the Norwegian plant in Hammerfest, said Valery Andrianov, Associate Professor at the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation.
This will lead to more supply, although still relatively modest, he added.

But even $700-800 per thousand cubic meters are very high prices for the normal operation of the industry in Europe , Stanislav Mitrakhovich, a leading expert of the National Energy Security Fund, emphasized.
— If we assume that Nord Stream 2 will be launched in the near future, then gas prices would drop significantly , – said Alexander Frolov, Deputy Director General of the National Energy Institute.
The devil is in the details
In the future, a lot will depend on the weather – wind, snow, whether it will fall asleep solar panels . And there are still many days of winter ahead, and in case of a cold snap, prices will soar , said Stanislav Mitrahovich.
Aleksey Grivach, Deputy General Director of the National Energy Security Fund, agrees with him.

– Even $700 is higher (and significantly) than the cost of gas in the entire history of spot trading in continental Europe until last September . Price dynamics on the spot will depend very much on the weather. So far, the winter in Europe is quite mild, and high prices have undermined demand in the industrial sector and forced households to save gas even more actively, the expert noted. — As a result, at the beginning of 2022, for several days, UGS facilities in Europe experienced an increase in stocks, which is unprecedented for the middle of winter. Frosts will return prices to growth, and a prolonged cooling in the second part of the heating season will create risks of a real physical shortage of gas, especially without the launch of Nord Stream 2 and an increase in contracts for imports from Russia .
With the start of operation of the gas pipeline, the cost of gas may return to the levels of the first half of 2021, added Ekaterina Kosareva.
In addition, the excitement associated with the spread of a new strain of coronavirus “Omicron” 9 is gradually subsiding0555, noted Valery Andrianov. Recent studies conducted in South Africa show that it is less dangerous than its predecessors, and this may indicate the imminent fading of the pandemic, the expert recalled. Consequently, the European economy may begin to recover faster than previously predicted, and it will require additional volumes of gas, which will lead to a new round of prices , concluded Valery Andrianov.

The Best Restaurants in Lanzarote, Canary Islands

Traditional tapas are reliably good on the windswept island of Lanzarote, part of Spain’s Canary Islands off the west coast of Africa. But there’s a new wave of inventive cuisine that weds traditional flavours with cool presentation. Here’s our pick.
From chorizo to patatas bravas (spicy potatoes),there’s plenty of excellent tapas to be found on Lanzarote. But courtesy of chefs with flair and imagination, there are exciting gastronomic innovations to discover, too. And they’re often in beautiful settings, whether that’s a simple beach shack or a sleek architect-designed space.
Restaurante Lilium
Restaurant, Tapas, $$$
Orlando Ortega runs his open kitchen behind an impressive glass facade overlooking the gleaming marina in Arrecife. Awarded a Michelin Bib Gourmand, he crafts Canarian classics with MasterChef pizzazz; ropa vieja, a simple stew, is livened up with local octopus and chickpeas. Book a terrace table to watch the gin palaces bob in the sun, and end your meal with some sweet-potato ice cream.
Restaurant Costa Azul
Restaurant, Seafood, $$$

Restaurant Costa Azul is a simple-looking blue-and-white spot on the beach in the tiny seaside village of El Golfo, but it’s one of the best places on the island for fish and seafood – best devoured with a bottle of crisp malvasia white from Bodega La Geria on the island. Take a jacket as the breeze can be strong, and walk off lunch along Avenida Marítima. If you have kids in tow, there’s great rock pooling on the black pebble beach.
Coentro
Restaurant, Brazilian

Chef-owner João Faraca brings the flavours from his native Brazil to this inventive restaurant in Puerto Calero. He won Best Chef in the Canary Islands in 2018 for his unique cooking, including gazpacho with goat’s-cheese ice cream, cocoa-braised pig cheeks and wagyu carpaccio with silky burrata. Dishes are served on lava-esque tableware, wood and rough ceramics – try small plates or the tasting menu.
Villa Toledo Restaurant
Restaurant, Spanish, $$$
Courtesy of Villa Toledo Restaurant
Villa Toledo Restaurant offers upscale dining in a spectacular setting above the ocean in Costa Teguise, opening onto volcanic rocks that descend to the sea. It was built in the 1960s as a private home for a wealthy salt-mining family, and with glass walls, the sea is visible whether you’re dining inside or out. The dish to try is fideuà; it’s similar to paella but made with noodles rather than rice. It’s perfect with a crisp glass of local malvasia wine.
La Cabana Macher
Restaurant, Hungarian, Spanish, $$$
Courtesy of La Cabana Macher
Small and intimate, La Cabana Macher is the place to visit if you fancy something a little more international than regular tapas. Chef Darren Spurr did a stint alongside Marco Pierre White before relocating to Macher village to create simple yet artfully presented food that packs a punch – think lamb chops with mint aioli and fillet steak with chimichurri. Save room for the avowedly British puds – the bread-and-butter pudding is delicious.
La Cocina de Colacho
Restaurant, Spanish, Mediterranean, $$$
Courtesy of La Cocina de Colacho
Everything about La Cocina, in Playa Blanca, feels very special, from the angular, glass-walled exterior to the moodily lit dining room with mighty arched windows overlooking the open kitchen. Chef-owner Nicholás Machín, known to all as Colacho, mixes Canarian flavours with Michelin-esque styling. You’ll be lured back by the slow-cooked Iberian black pig – and the welcome from Colacho and his wife, Anabel.
Casa de la Playa
Restaurant, Seafood
Casa de la Playa may not look like much from the outside, but this beachfront fish restaurant in Arrieta is always busy. So, arrive early, order a bottle of chilled dry white wine and relax as you mull over what to eat; the flame-grilled prawns, salt-crusted fish (fresh off the boat just hours before) and stonking seafood platters are a few options. The staff speak little English, but it all adds to the fun – as do surfers on windier days, cavorting while you eat.
Cantina Teguise
Restaurant, Tapas, $$$
If you prefer authenticity over attitude, try this Canarian classic in a historic, whitewashed building in Teguise, the former capital of the Canary Islands. The zamburiñas (Galacian scallops) are the must-order tapas; for heartier appetites, larger plates include black angus steak and freshly caught fish. Book Sunday lunch, and spend the morning in the town market among locals and tourists buying cheeses, wines and handicrafts.
La Carmencita del Puerto
Restaurant, Tapas, $$$
Tapas is more than patatas bravas, and the proof is at this charming little restaurant in Puerto del Carmen, run with real flair by the lovely Alvaro and Irena. The experience is memorable due to the time they spend with each diner, discovering their food likes and dislikes and recommending particular dishes. Instead of wine, try Irena’s Rebujito – manzanilla (sherry), lemonade, mint, raspberries and ice.
Natural Nada Màs
Restaurant, Vegan
Lanzarote hasn’t overly embraced plant-based and gluten-free dining, but this brunch spot in Puerto Calero sends out delicious smoothies and shakes made with milk alternatives to go with the vegan Beyond Burger. It’s very good, as are the croissants and Spanish omelettes. The terrace, with its palms, is a lovely spot, and the English-speaking staff are happy to tweak dishes to suit dietary needs.

Michelin recommended restaurants in the Canary Islands
Whilst the focus of this is ostensibly about Michelin restaurants in the Canary Islands it isn’t just about Michelin recommendations, or exclusively about the Canary Islands for that matter. It’s also partly about the way things work in travel writing and gastronomy – the importance of being in clubs, having influential connections, and why recommended restaurants in travel articles aren’t always necessarily the best restaurants in any given destination.
El Rincon del Juan Carlos on Tenerife – now a Michelin-starred restaurant.
A few years ago we interviewed a talented chef who’d just been voted runner up in the best young chef in Spain competition. We had stumbled across this information and got in touch with him. Despite it being a prestigious award, and something which could help boost the image of gastronomy in the destination, there had been no official press release about it. His wasn’t a restaurant which was ‘associated’ with the tourist board, therefore no promotion.
Around the same time we were fortunate enough to visit maestro chef Ferran Adrià’s El Bulli restaurant in Costa Brava just before it closed. As well as there being a waiting list of people wanting to dine at the famous restaurant, there was a waiting list of young chefs queuing up to work in the kitchen. Learning their trade from the best chef in the world, and also having El Bulli on a CV, was like being given a magic key which could unlock just about any gastronomic portal.
Young chefs learning their trade at El Bulli.
One of the connections between these two examples is how restaurants recommended in travel articles/blogs might come from a limited pool which doesn’t necessarily include all the best restaurants in the relevant location. Sometimes that can be because they’re associated with a tourist board and therefore these are the restaurants ‘promoted’ to visiting travel writers. The other is because they have a prestigious label attached to them e.g. having a world famous restaurant on their chefs’ CVs, or being recommended by a publication like the Michelin Guide.
Visiting travel writers are taken to an ‘off the beaten track’ restaurant here, blissfully unaware that it’s a lunch venue for coach excursions.
There can often be some confusion about what it means to be recommended in the Michelin Guide. We regularly have folk tell us about a Michelin star restaurant which turns out to be in the Michelin Guide but doesn’t actually have a star. It happened most recently on the Isle of Skye. In that case the restaurant, the Three Chimneys, did have a star in the past but had lost it when the chef had moved on. It was still listed in the guide, but with a ‘Plate’ recommendation.
Food at The Three Chimneys, still Michelin recommended but no longer with a star, for the moment.
One difference between those which have been recommended because of association with a destination’s tourist board and those listed in something like the Michelin Guide is the ones in the guide have been chosen because diners are guaranteed a certain level of quality, whether Star, Plate, or Bib Gourmand. Those are keys which let diners know what to expect. We’ve already covered what the different categories found in the guide actually mean.
The only Michelin recommended restaurant on El Hierro.
But even Michelin guides don’t always include all the best restaurants in a destination. I’ve singled out the Canary Islands because we know them very well, and therefore know excellent restaurants which don’t feature. Those included are good restaurants as you’d expect, but not always as good as others which aren’t. For example, La Gomera has no restaurants listed even though gastronomy on the western island is generally of a higher standard than on El Hierro which has one listing.
Puesta de Sol – one of the best restaurants on La Palma, but not in the Michelin Guide.
Tenerife quite rightly tops the Canary Islands gastronomic chart with five restaurants sharing six Michelin stars – no other island boasts any. However, there are other recommended Tenerife restaurants which would come some way down my list of favourite restaurants on the island. A significant number of recommended restaurants in the Canaries are part of hotels. By their very nature these have a far higher profile than a small, family run affair in an off the beaten track location. Being noticed in influential circles in the gastronomic game is vitally important, which takes me back to one of the reasons why notching up kitchen time in a world-renowned restaurant can bring dividends. Look into the background of any new Michelin-starred chefs and you’ll more than likely find a connection with other, established, Michelin-starred chefs. Networking is the way the world works in many professions, it’s an established way of getting your name out there.
Terrazas del Sauzal is in the Michelin Guide, and the food is very good. The view is even better.
But it doesn’t mean those who aren’t in the game don’t have equally good restaurants. And that’s where the real foodie fun lies, in discovering those off the radar places which wow you with their food. For that reason I’m not going to actually list the Michelin recommended restaurants on each of the Canary Islands.
Go, explore, eat, and discover deliciousness for yourself.

The great culinary proposal of these Spanish islands is due to the talent of an important group of chefs, eager to teach the delicacies of their land. We show you which are the best restaurants in each of the seven Canary Islands, based on their awards and the personal experience of the author of the report, correspondent of azureazure.com
El Risco (Lanzarote)
In the fishing village of Caleta de Famara, on the Island of Lanzarote, is the restaurant El Risco, which displays a pleasant typical marine decoration with unsurpassed views of the beach. It is a family restaurant where the sea is an essential part of a gastronomic offer.
El Risco (Lanzarote)

Among the great gastronomic offer of El Risco, dishes such as grilled octopus, delicious crepes filled with spinach and seafood, fish paella or broth rice with lobster stand out. There you will find an excellent menu of the increasingly appreciated Canarian wines. If you like to eat really well, in a cozy environment and surrounded by the sea, don’t miss it!
La Cúpula (Fuerteventura)
In the Gran Hotel Atlantis Bahía Real on the island of Fuerteventura, a five-star hotel located on the beachfront, you will find the La Cúpula restaurant, advised by the prestigious chef Carles Gaig, creditor of a Michelin star.
A dish from La Cúpula, Fuenteventura, Canary Islands
Its menu is made up of delicious, unique and very original dishes: lentils from Fuerteventura with marine plankton, scallops and prawns or kid’s ingot with seasonal vegetables, among other delicacies. La Cúpula shows a distinguished decoration, has an efficient service and offers an excellent international wine list.
Mirador de la Perla (El Hierro)
On the wild island of El Hierro, the Canarian artist Cesar Manrique designed the restaurant El Mirador de La Peña 30 years ago, located on the Tibataje cliff, in the Guarazoca area. The place has what are probably the most impressive views of any of the Canary Islands. The dining room, with huge windows, is very spacious and elegant, and the restaurant’s proposal is traditional (the main photo of this article is from this restaurant).

Go through El Hierro’s own products such as fresh fish, potatoes with green and red mojo sauces, or the magnificent smoked herreño cheese. An unforgettable experience that, if you are lucky enough to visit El Hierro, you cannot miss out on.
Nub (Tenerife)
Awarded with a Michelin star, NUB, located in the graceful town of San Cristóbal de la Laguna in La Laguna, is in my personal opinion the best restaurant on the island of Tenerife.
View of the small and modern dining room of the NUB restaurant, Tenerife, Canary Islands
One of the original Nub dishes
The reins of the business are in the hands of the Italian chef Andrea Bernardi and his Chilean wife Fernanda Fuentes. The kitchen, which is part of the modern and small dining room with just five tables, provides a brilliant gastronomic fusion of Chilean, Italian and Canarian cultures and roots. There are two menus and there is the possibility of pairing the dishes with wines or juices, smoothies and fermented. A culinary experience that has nothing to envy to many of the best restaurants in the world.
El equilibrista 33 (Gran Canaria)
Chef Carmelo Florido wisely runs his restaurant El Equilibrista 33, located on the island of Gran Canaria. It proposes a creative Canarian cuisine that preserves the essence of the ancestral flavors of the land.

Their dishes are a visual and gustatory wonder: mango gazpacho with prawns and coriander, tomato strudel with fresh cheese and basil pesto, or dishes of unquestionable quality such as free-range chicken with chips and hot sauce or sirloin medallions in puff pastry with Canarian red wine reduction. The authentic and most demanding foodies are going to give themselves a very special taste!
El Ingeniero (La Palma)
To the east of the island of La Palma, in a natural setting located inside a house from the beginning of the 18th century, formerly dedicated to the production of tobacco, is the restaurant El Ingeniero. Its cuisine shows the best culinary tradition on the island in a space of great natural beauty.

Unique dishes parade before the astonished eyes of the diner, such as: duck confit with mango coulis, sweet potato and mushroom puree, squid filled with squid ink aioli, or desserts such as natural banana with passion fruit soup and coconut ice cream. A total gastronomic feast!
Restaurante Parador (La Gomera)
With a spacious dining room with Colombian decoration, the restaurant of the Parador Nacional de Turismo de La Gomera is one of the best on the island. Here chef Juan José Alonso reigns, offering regional meals with a point of creativity, made with products from the island.

Delicious plate of papaya salad, prawns and smoked cheese
On the menu you will find dishes as subtle as papaya salad, prawns and smoked cheese, or the shredded kid’s leg on smoked cheese toast, among other delicacies. There is also a great wine list with special attention to the Canaries. A must stop if you travel to La Gomera! ■
10 of the best gourmet restaurants in the Canary Islands
If you think of the gastronomy in the Canary Islands as mainly consisting of all day British breakfasts at worst or simply grilled meat and fish at best, think again. Know the right places and your tastebuds are in for a culinary treat.
There’s a burgeoning gourmet scene on some of the most populated Canary Islands, ironically thanks in part to tourism. Luxury hotels have brought in top chefs to meet the high expectations of discerning guests whilst talented local chefs have ‘enhanced’ their skills by travelling further afield to learn their trade before returning to their homeland to spice up some staid traditional dishes with new ideas.
Tenerife is leading the way with this gastronomic renaissance with some of the other islands following closely behind.
These are ten gourmet palaces to seek out the best of contemporary cuisine in the Canary Islands.
Abama Golf & Spa Resort, Tenerife
The only Michelin star restaurants in the Canary Islands are on Tenerife and both are located in the Moorish confines of the luxurious Abama Hotel in Playa San Juan. M.B. is from the stable of renowned Basque chef Martín Berasategui and seasonal products there are given the M.B. makeover to create innovative dishes like red prawns on avocado and seafood logs and roasted monk fish with cheesy marshmallows.
At the other Michelin star restaurant on the premises, Kabuki, head chef Daniel Franco fuses classic Spanish dishes with Asian favourites to bring two contrasting cultures seamlessly together. Hamburger sushi anyone?
Lucas Maes, Tenerife
Despite being close to Tenerife’s main northern resort of Puerto de la Cruz, most people would sail past Lucas without knowing he was there as his gorgeous restaurant is located off a motorway approach road. Although originally Belgian, Lucas considers himself a Canarian chef who reinterprets traditional dishes. Whatever his nationality, the most important thing is that he keeps treating us with delectable dishes like scallops in champagne and smoked salmon in a saffron, honey and caper dressing.
Los Roques, Tenerife
Voted one of the ten best restaurants in Spain by Tripadvisor users last year, Los Roques offers sophisticated food in a romantic setting overlooking the small fishing harbour of Los Abrigos – a winning combination. Everything on the menu is desirable, but whatever you choose leave space for the ‘Palta’, an orgasmic lime and avocado sorbet sat atop an almond biscuit in a thyme scented white chocolate sauce. Yes, it is as good as it sounds.
El Rincón de Juan Carlos, Tenerife
A family affair tucked away in a side street in one of Tenerife’s most popular holiday resorts, Los Gigantes.Juan Carlos produces Michelin star quality food but not at Michelin star prices. The food is wonderfully imaginative and a treat for both eyes and mouth. Anyone looking for typical resort food who wanders in will be disappointed, whilst those who love good food will be elated with the discovery.
Bohemia Suites and Spa, Gran Canaria
The 360 Restaurant in Playa del Inglés lives up to the Bohemian tag… and promise of 360 degree views that include the ocean and the natural golden wonder a.k.a the Maspalomas Dunes. With views like this, the food needs to be good to distract. It is. Chef Xavier Franquet picked up plenty of delicious tricks of the trade during the years he spent with Catalan maestro, Ferran Adriá at his world famous el Bulli restaurant.
Allende, Gran Canaria
There are three Allende eating establishments in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria; La Taberna del Puerto, Allende Triana and Allende Muelle. Whichever you choose you’re going to be presented with a seriously appealing menu that mixes traditional Canarian with influences from around the world. Expect to have those decision making skills tested. How do you choose from ceviche with passion fruit and coriander, octopus with sweet potato, and mini hamburgers with foie, brie and quince?
El Mondalón, Gran Canaria
Located near the Bandama Crater, the food at El Mondalón is probably more traditional than some of the other restaurants mentioned. But chef Pepe Gonzalez has infused some dishes with a personality as big as his own. The foie with violet dressing is subtly wonderful whilst the papas arrugadas (wrinkled potatoes) with hot almogrote (savoury cheese paté from La Gomera) is an inspired pairing of two Canary Island classics.
La Tegala, Lanzarote
Germán Blanco is another chef who might not have a Michelin star but in his super stylish restaurant in Yaiza, with views of neighbouring Fuerteventura, he prepares dishes that are as tasty as you’ll find anywhere on the Canary Islands. Although contemporary in composition, the food’s roots are often local, such as papas bonitas dressed in avocado tartar and finished off with a tuna topping.
Verde Mar, Lanzarote
Verde Mar is an arty little restaurant with a nice vibe tucked away in La Santa, an area of Lanzarote favoured by visiting athletes. On the face of it, the menu might look quite standard as it includes usual Canarian suspects like sea bass, goat’s cheese and sardines. But at Verde Mar the sea bass has a thyme and lime glaze; the goat’s cheese comes wrapped in Serrano ham and the sardines are drizzled with mojo verde (cilantro sauce). Familiar but very different.
Mahoh Restaurant, Fuerteventura
The Mahoh in Villaverde transforms from a casual rural hotel during the day to a slickly run and very professional restaurant at night. The sort of place where the wine waiter sniffs the wine cork to make sure it’s quaffable and the maître d’ gives a detailed run down of what’s on the menu. This can range from typically traditional (half a rabbit) to dishes with a bit more flair (parrot fish paté or mushrooms topped with cilantro sauce and local goat’s cheese).
This might be a list of ten of the best gourmet restaurants in the Canary Islands, but there are many, many more… not always in the most obvious places. Go explore and discover the treasures of a rich and diverse culinary world that is a million miles away from the one commonly connected with the Canary Islands.

Everything for independent rest!
- Canarian cuisine
- Restaurants
Tenerife is not only a great place for a beach holiday and a large number of attractions, it is also a real paradise for those who love delicious food. The only problem that can arise is the problem of choice. Restaurants in Tenerife are presented for every taste: with traditional Canarian cuisine, international, Italian, Mediterranean, Indian, fast food fast food (McDonald’s, Burger King, KFC), pizzerias. Canarian cuisine includes many fish dishes, including rare varieties caught off the coast of Tenerife. Also in the menu of restaurants in Tenerife there is a large selection of vegetable dishes, the most popular types of meat are rabbit and goat meat.
Most of the restaurants in Tenerife offer visitors a menu not only of Canarian cuisine, but also of popular dishes from other national cuisines. Therefore, even the most demanding visitor will not leave hungry and will definitely find something to their liking. Restaurants in Tenerife can be found very different – from small bars on the ocean to large and sophisticated ones.
Tenerife is always full of vacationers, so most restaurants work in such a way that they can not only have a delicious lunch or dinner, but also have breakfast. People usually choose those restaurants in Tenerife where the largest selection of dishes is presented and they cook fish, because where, if not here, you can enjoy a variety of fresh fish and seafood dishes. In many cafes you can have a delicious breakfast with sandwiches, scrambled eggs with bacon, fish. The real Canarian cuisine can only be tasted in those restaurants in Tenerife that are located far from the resort towns – country restaurants.
Traditional Canarian cuisine has borrowed many dishes from Spanish cuisine.
Dress code in restaurants is very rarely regulated, as a rule, only in fashionable restaurants. But nowhere, except for the bars on the beaches, they are not allowed to enter in bathing suits.
Or one of the best
Choosing the best restaurants is quite difficult for each person, everyone has different tastes, price, and preferences too, so we will select or advise you some of the most popular, which are in demand or good in most reviews.

What should I order?
Restaurants offer delicious meat dishes from young lamb, goat meat and beef. Fish dishes are prepared with tuna, sea bream, sardines, octopus, squid, vieja fish, abadejo and black. Traditional Canarian dishes are prepared very simply, fish and meat are fried and served with the most popular sauces “Mojo rojo” and “Mojo berde”.
When can I eat?
As is traditional in Spain, there is no fixed meal time. Lunch is usually served from one in the afternoon until three, most of the visitors are locals. You can always have a bite to eat in a bar or in a restaurant on the beach.
Dinner in Tenerife restaurants is served from 7 pm to 10 pm – 11 pm. After this time, hunger can only be satisfied with fast food in small bars or nightclubs.
Breakfasts in Tenerife restaurants are rather modest from the point of view of a Russian person and most often consist of coffee with milk and a bun or toast with cheese and ham. But many restaurants in Tenerife also offer complex breakfasts, consisting of coffee, natural orange juice and light snacks.
Reservations in restaurants
There are so many restaurants in Tenerife that usually there is no problem with free places. But if you want to go to a certain restaurant in Tenerife, then you can reserve a place if you wish, so that later there will be no disappointment.
Vegetarian menu in Tenerife
All restaurants in Tenerife have a large selection of vegetarian dishes, but it’s still good to check if there are any meat ingredients before eating. Since the Canarians can quite freely interpret vegetarianism.
Restaurant prices in Tenerife
Restaurant prices vary widely. So in a chic restaurant, a full meal with wine can cost 50 euros per person. At the same time, restaurants in Tenerife are simpler, you can have a good lunch for 15 euros.
Many offer not only dishes from the menu, but also the dish of the day – tasty and inexpensive. Usually, in addition to the main dishes, the menu has numerous snacks, breads, desserts and drinks. Such a set costs from 6 to 12 euros.
Expensive restaurants sometimes offer tasting menus of dishes recommended by the restaurant’s chef.
Payment in restaurants
Almost in any institution you can pay for lunch with a plastic card (the amount should not be less than 6 – 8 euros). But in small restaurants they may ask you to pay in cash. Sometimes travelers checks are accepted.
Tipping in restaurants
It is common practice to tip 5 to 10% of the bill, however, if you are not satisfied with the service, you can choose not to tip. Many leave change for your preference for tea, you should not indulge either.
Tenerife hotel reservation
Tenerife cuisine – restaurants, cafes and markets
Don’t limit yourself to Spanish cuisine in Tenerife! You can eat tapas, paella and tortilla on the mainland, especially since they are far from being as good here as in Seville and Malaga. Get up close and personal with the traditional bars and restaurants of the Canary Islands.
What is the typical cuisine of Tenerife? Before the Spaniards, Guanches lived on the island, who prepared modest and uncomplicated dishes from cereals, lamb and goat meat. Therefore, traditional Canarian dishes are a mix of fish, seafood, local meat and fruit delicacies from bananas, mangoes and avocados. Don’t expect to see beef on the menu – there aren’t many cow pastures on the island. But you can easily find pork and rabbit treats. Tenerife cuisine is not too spicy, but the dishes are generously seasoned with local herbs, paprika and garlic.
What to try in Tenerife?
Papas Arrugadas is the most famous dish of the Canary Islands. Soft local potatoes boiled in salt water with skins. Served with green or red mojo sauce with garlic and herbs.
Ropa Vieja is one of the best local soups, although its name literally translates as “old clothes”. It is prepared from meat scraps, stewed chickpeas and vegetables.
Cheese Almogrote – cream cheese from La Gomera with tomatoes, garlic, olive oil and paprika.
Conejo al salmorejo – Braised rabbit marinated in aromatic wine, vinegar, garlic and spices.
Dulce morcilla — Canarians add almonds, raisins and sugar to the usual Spanish black pudding, and the result is an unusual sweet dish.
Black is a large deep sea white fish. Traditionally it is grilled with potatoes and vegetables.
There is no problem on the island to eat delicious food in a beautiful place. But we do not recommend dining in the top tourist restaurants on the south coast during the season: the dishes will be cooked carelessly, and you will have to wait a very long time for them.
The most common taverns in the Canary Islands are called guashins, which are located almost in garages. Their main feature is huge portions of homemade wine, which, in fact, are the main dishes in Tenerife.
Top 10 restaurants in Tenerife
Price level: € low, €€ moderate, €€€ expensive, €€€€ very expensive
Agumansa €
The most authentic Canarian restaurant imaginable! For starters, it is located on the mountain road from La Orotava at an altitude of 1525 m. Therefore, in winter, all travelers first rush to the huge fireplace in the central hall.
Agumansa is located in an old farmhouse where children can get up close and personal with horses, pigs, ponies and ostriches.
The menu here has not changed for the past 40 years, it includes only traditional dishes: stewed rabbit, smoked trout, grilled fish and many homemade desserts. Portion sizes are huge, which is typical for Canarian restaurants, so you can safely take one dish for two, or even three.

What and where to drink? Tenerife bar highlights
Tenerife is home to five wine regions, so it’s no surprise that wine is a major part of the dining experience on the island. Homemade wine is served in any, even the most pretentious restaurant. To order a glass of wine, ask for “una copa de vino tinto / rosado / blanco”. Wine in cartons can be bought at the supermarket for €1/liter!
The Canarian beer is called “dorada”, it is brewed in Tenerife, and this drink cannot be obtained anywhere except, perhaps, neighboring Gran Canaria. A local brand found in all bars is sold under the name “Tropical”.
A small bar dictionary:
-
una cana – una cana, a glass of 0. 2 l;
-
tubo – 0.33 liters of beer in a tall glass;
-
tanque, maceta – a mug of draft beer with a volume of 0.4-0.5 l;

Despite the very fast service, there are always queues of local residents in El Sino. When you try the local octopus, fried hake and sardine, you will understand why! A portion of fried squid costs only €9, an octopus costs €12.50 and a glass of beer costs €3.

Where to eat in Tenerife.
Canary Islands (Spain)
Obviously, almost all restaurants in the Canary Islands offer fish dishes. It is clear that the ocean is nearby, from which local fishermen extract everything that is edible that floats, clings to rocks or lies at the bottom. There are a lot of varieties of seafood, and it’s not at all easy to understand the incomprehensible Spanish names of fish, shellfish and other reptiles, especially if there is no translation of the menu into English. But it’s a well-known fact that the best restaurants are in the outback, in places not trampled down by tourists, but here you certainly don’t expect a translation, it’s good if the waiter knows at least 10 English words.
The south of Tenerife is best known as a beach resort. The most impressive clusters of hotels are located in Las Americas (Playa de las Americas) and Costa Adeje (Costa Adeje) . Everything here is set up to serve hundreds of thousands of tourists a year. Restaurants are numerous and intrusive in attracting tourists. Almost everyone has a barker and bright banners offering happiness for very cheap. Only here the cuisine in the resort coastal restaurants, frankly, is not very good.
It’s different in the north of the island. A more demanding audience comes here to relax. There are few beaches here, the ocean is colder, the wave is steeper and the sun does not always shine, so a “carcass” tan is not the main thing here. Leisurely walks, sightseeing and food come to the fore. There are many restaurants in the main tourist center of the region Puerto de la Cruz , but even here you don’t need to sit down at the first place you come across, it’s worth wandering around, studying the menu, listening to your sense of smell for smells coming from the kitchen, and making the right choice.
I will introduce you to several restaurants that differ from the usual ones in the quality of dishes and in the general surroundings, however, some of them will have to go, but they are worth it.
Tajao
(San Miguel de Tajao), southeast, 30 km from Las Americas
The small fishing village of San Miguel de Tajao is located just 30 km from Las Americas towards the capital of the island of Santa Cruz.
[pw_map address=”Calle Callao Hondo, 22, San Miguel de Tajao” width=”100%” height=”300px”]
It is famous for its restaurants offering the freshest seafood in a very original manner. There is no menu, you go to the counter, where everything that the ocean has given people today is laid out. There are several types of fish, and various shellfish, and octopuses with squid, and shrimp with lobsters, and something that is difficult to identify, but definitely worth trying. We chose the restaurant El Rocas .
All varieties of ocean fauna are sold by weight. Those. You show what you will eat, then, without dividing into types, it is weighed and prepared. We took 2 large fish, long shells Navaja (navaja) and noodles (lapas). All this pulled over 2 kilograms and was eventually calculated for us at a price of 16.80 euros per kilo. There was also a salad in a bucket for 5 euros, arrugadas potatoes with mojo sauces and half a liter of house white wine for 4 euros. As a result, the total bill was 50 euros.
The town itself is also nice, but very small – a couple of streets, a picturesque fishing port and beautiful rocks around.
Garachiko (Garachico), North-West, 30 km from Puerto de-Krus
A pretty place, is considered the most beautiful of the younger towns of Tenerifa. It is quite possible to walk. Particularly attractive are the promenade between the volcanic rocks along the ocean and the square near the cathedral Iglesia de Santa Ana . There are several good restaurants in the square, but look out for Bodegon Plaza (Calle Francisco Martínez de Fuentes, 7) .
It is attractive for its authentic cuisine and surprisingly low prices. In the Canary Islands, in principle, food is inexpensive, but I have not seen prices lower than here. And do not think that for 5 euros you will be given tapas (snack), no, it will be quite a solid dish. Lunch for two included: 2 Canarian-style soups, very simple, with pasta and potatoes, but tasty,
rabbit,
lamb with potatoes,
jacket potatoes (papas arrugadas ) with dry white wine sauces and half a liter. The one on top of the papas is called gofio (gofio) , a lump of roasted cornmeal, water, almonds and honey. A recipe inherited by modern cuisine from the indigenous inhabitants of the islands – the Guanches.
The final score was amazing – 22.5 euros! It is worth adding that real Canarian dishes are very simple and satisfying. What we were shown in this restaurant! By the way, it is open only at lunchtime – from 12 to 16.
San Andrés ( San Andrés ), southeast, 10 km from Santa Cruz
Here is the famous “bulk” beach
where the yellow sand was brought38 .
The town adjacent to the beach is unremarkable, except for a couple of restaurants offering fish cuisine, one of them is Marisqueria Ramon .
An excellent, very tasty seafood paella for two for 21.60 plus 2 fish soups with 4 mugs of Dorada beer was pulled for 42 euros.
Puerto de la Cruz
(Puerto de la Cruz), north
Undoubtedly the most beautiful and most popular city in the northern part of the island. Walking through the old part of the city is always a pleasure. Particularly authentic is the quarter between Plaza del Charco and the black sand beach Playa Jardín .
There are many nice little restaurants here. Of course, you will be fed in other parts of the city, but here it is somehow more pleasant and, probably, tastier. A set of “tapas” – a variety of snacks typical of Spanish cuisine, at the restaurant El Patio Del Puerto De La Cruz at Plaza Pérez Galdós cost 9 euros per person. Plus, a decanter of champagne Sangria is all you need to have a great evening in Pueto de la Cruz.
As for tips, they are not asked for and are not expected to be received. Change is always brought “for a pretty penny” and there are no highlighted lines in the check of the “service” type either. I think the overpriced bread (1-2 euros per person), which is always brought, and there are those tips, like the Italian “coperto” – for “table setting”, included in the bill. True, in Tenerife, sometimes 7 percent of sales tax is added to the invoice amount. In Gran Canaria, we did not encounter this.
Result: Excellent food, very reasonable prices, but it is worth looking for something better than what is offered in restaurants along the beaches, at least in the places I have mentioned.

Canary Islands – local cuisine. Part two. Fish and seafood.
(start here)
You will be offered fish in the Canary Islands even in a gorge high in the mountains, where, perhaps, you can’t even see the ocean – what can we say about the restaurants of the tourist area, where fish and seafood are the highlight of the program at any time of the year. But do not rush to take advantage of the tempting offer: in order to truly appreciate the gifts of the Atlantic, you will have to make some effort. Of course, I am far from saying that there are no good fish restaurants in the tourist areas of Tenerife or other Canary Islands; but you can feel the local color only away from the paths traveled by tourists, in small villages on the ocean, where the fish gets on the table a few hours after the catch and is prepared simply and ingenuously. What you need.
In order to get to a real fishing village, it is advisable, of course, to rent a car – a taxi will cost a pretty penny, and it is not clear how to return back. Head along the coast, away from the tourist zone (experimentally established that 15 kilometers away is already more or less, and 30 is almost ideal), and fearlessly turn towards the ocean when you see some sign with the name of the settlement. If the village you are in is right on the water and looks like the natural end of the world, you have come to the right place.
One of the fishing villages that are so rich on the coast of the Canary Islands
Restaurants in these villages also look absolutely textbook – a mandatory sign that this institution specializes in fresh fish and seafood (and what, I ask you, can you specialize if the ocean is nearby? ..), sometimes nondescript interior and shabby clothes of staff, and no menu. No, I fully admit that if you insist, the waitress will pull out a greasy piece of paper with prices handwritten on it, but this is useless: the role of the menu here is played by a display case in which freshly caught fish and marine inhabitants awaiting their fate . And most importantly, you are unlikely to cook them tastier than here. It is not surprising that on weekends in such restaurants there is nowhere for an apple to fall from the locals who come here with their whole families.
The variety of fish that live near the islands is very large, most of them you can try
However, I do not insist that you dine in God knows where, because in restaurants designed for tourists, the same fish is served, and the same islanders prepare it. So let’s see how it is customary to serve fish and seafood in the Canary Islands.
Fish
There are several dozen varieties of fish that live in the vicinity of the Canary Islands, and, to be honest, I did not work too hard to remember them. Choose the one you like best, and for a Canarian flavor, ask for it to be cooked the way it is usually cooked on the islands: cut in half lengthwise (not really caring about how to clean it), seasoned with coarse sea salt and fried in olive oil with garlic .
The classic Canary style fish
The exceptions are fish that are too small, like sardines, which are grilled or deep-fried, or too large, like tuna, whose steaks are traditionally fried or grilled. If desired, you can season the fish with mojo verde and mojo picon sauces, which we talked about last time.
Seafood served raw
Many varieties of seafood are eaten raw (which for a person accustomed only to Russian cuisine may sound wild), sprinkled with lemon juice. Such, for example, are small, with a marigold, reddish shrimp with a very fresh, sweet taste. oysters are also traditionally eaten raw – however, as far as I understand, oysters are not found off the coast of the Canary Islands, they are brought from Morocco or even further, which explains their not too low price. Mussels can also be eaten raw, but most often, like other seafood, they are pre-cooked.
Mussels and clams lapas baked with herb butter
Seafood served after cooking
These are the already mentioned mussels and local shells – they are usually prepared according to the traditional recipe a la marinera, that is, in white wine, or with other sauces. Other lapas shells are most often baked with butter, garlic and parsley. Concluding the theme of shells, navajas should be mentioned – these oblong cigarette-shaped shells are grilled.
Shrimps , langoustines and lobsters are also very tasty when served directly from the grill. The latter, however, are considered somewhat of a delicacy, and are prepared in dozens of ways, so be sure to find out before you order.
Squids are prepared in several ways in the Canary Islands
There are also squids – large and very small, and if the former are often grilled, then the latter are breaded and deep-fried. Highly recommend to try octopus – if you order pulpo a la gallega, you will be served boiled octopus, cut into small pieces, and seasoned with sweet paprika and olive oil, octopus is also delicious in salads and cooked in oil.
Whatever you choose, fresh bread, a slice of lemon and a pitcher of cold white or rosé wine will come in handy.
You won’t be disappointed when you try Canarian fish and seafood, and their abundance will allow you to try something new every time without repeating yourself. Another thing is traditional meat dishes: there are not so many of them on the islands, but, fortunately, there are also famous dairy products that also deserve special mention. Which? Read in the next issue.

All of them offer both breakfasts and lunches. Clothing generally not regulated except for a few Fast food chains are represented not only by locals, but also Island cuisine based on Mediterranean traditions. It includes fish, meat, rice, potatoes, vegetables and tropical fruits.

Don’t forget gofio. This roasted cornmeal can be added to everything: soups, desserts and even ice cream! As in the rest of Spain, the Canaries do not In addition to the traditional meal, you can always have a snack in a bar or a beach restaurant. Dinner starts late, around 9pm. It is served in all restaurants until eleven o’clock or until midnight. Dinner in Spain is usually a hot meal. At this time restaurants Spanish breakfasts (desayuno) usually consist only of coffee with milk There are so many restaurants on the island that there are problems with free places, like All restaurants offer vegetarian options but quite Restaurant prices in Tenerife can vary greatly. AT Playa sotavento fuerteventura: Sotavento beach | Hello Canary IslandsDiscover Sotavento beach in FuerteventuraSotavento beach is located on the Jandía Peninsula in southern Fuerteventura close to Pájara. It’s common knowledge that this island has been blessed with some of the best beaches in the Canary Islands archipelago so fans of the ocean, and unspoilt, white sand beaches, are in luck because Fuerteventura is a little slice of heaven. You won’t be disappointed! Sotavento particularly stands out among Fuerteventura’s many wonderful beaches and deserves its high standing in Spain and around the world. Just take a look at some photographs and you’ll quickly realise that it needn’t be in the slightest bit jealous of anything the Caribbean has to offer. Sotavento is almost ten kilometres long with abundant fine, gold sand lapped by crystal-clear waters, while its enormous dunes look as though they’ve been brought over from the famous Sahara desert. Sotavento in Fuerteventura, the surfing beach in Jandía This beach is perfect for sunbathing and taking a stroll, but it also offers visitors the chance to do water sports such as surfing, or to learn snorkelling and scuba diving. People describe it as a “beach/lake” because a small lagoon is created between the shore and a sand bank making it safer for doing certain water sports. In fact, Sotavento beach has been the location of several important surfing championships because it has the perfect conditions in terms of wind and waves.

If we’re going to be precise, Sotavento isn’t just one beach, it can be divided into five sections: La Barca, Risco del Paso, Mirador, Malnombre and Los Canarios. Each and every one is sure to delight whether you’re travelling alone, with family or friends. And if you’re holidaying with children, they’ll absolutely love the huge dunes and the lagoons that are formed here too. Sotavento Beach Naturism is permitted in some areas so if you’re looking for closer contact with nature you can happily go ahead. Sotavento viewpoint To take in the whole scene at once, we recommend heading to Sotavento viewpoint where you’ll get an idea of the vastness and grandeur of the landscape and the beauty of this beach in Fuerteventura. Spend a few minutes breathing in the fresh ocean air and gazing out at every aspect of this incredible, unspoilt beach. These days it can be hard to find beaches without buildings nearby, which is why the simple, pristine beauty of Sotavento is so very much appreciated. Perhaps that’s why we can confidently say it’s one of the best beaches in Spain. Where to eat at Sotavento beach When you set off for a day at the beach you have two options: have a picnic on the sand so you don’t have to leave your spectacular surroundings, or take a break and head to a restaurant for a fantastic meal. The choice is yours! If you choose the first option, make sure you buy some typical delicatessen products from the local markets first (cheese, for example). And if you decide to eat in a restaurant, below are the best recommendations for you to enjoy.
Mirador de Sotavento is in Costa Calma in Pájara, a town close to Sotavento beach. The restaurant has a big menu with traditional Mediterranean and Canary Islands dishes and a good wine list. They also have vegan and vegetarian options and dishes that are suitable for people with allergies. The restaurant boasts stunning views and if you visit later in the day, make sure you don’t miss the sunset.
If you’d prefer to eat something fast and have tapas with some excellent wine, look no further than El Bar de Marko y Mónica. This restaurant serves home-made dishes and local produce, and is a far cry from other tourist restaurants. The owners have decided to offer Spanish food with an Asturian twist that breaks away from dishes typically found on the island. Come here if you’re looking for high quality food and great professionalism at very reasonable prices.
The Terraza del Gato restaurant is just a few kilometres away from Sotavento beach. Its menu is based on typical Canary Island food and highlights include fresh grilled fish and barbecued meats. Lovers of fine wines will also be happy with the restaurant’s wide selection of local wines. Discover Pájara municipality As we mentioned above, Sotavento beach belongs to Pájara, one of the most popular tourist destinations in Fuerteventura thanks to its stunning surrounding landscapes of gorges, sand dunes, salt flats and river beds. In recognition of the fact that its landscapes are its strong point, over 60% of Pájara has been protected. If you were to observe Pájara from the air, you would realise that the municipality is actually a small peninsula that is separated from the mainland by the La Pared isthmus. Sotavento Beach Areas in Pájara that have been developed for tourism include famous tourism hubs such as Costa Calma, El Matorral and Esquinzo-Butihondo, which also has transparent waters and fine, golden sand. Important fishing villages such as Ajuy, to the north, and Morro Jable municipality, make great excursions to the surrounding area. Fuerteventura is bursting with impressive beaches and towns that offer peace and tranquillity. If you love water sports and enjoying hours and hours of unspoilt, kilometre-long beaches, make sure to visit this small peninsula in the Canary Islands. We recommend wandering among the sand dunes, enjoying unforgettable sunsets, strolling along the shore and feeling the salty Atlantic breeze on your cheeks. Sotavento beach in Fuerteventura is the perfect place to explore Canary Island culture and discover its people and delicious food.

BeachThere are two main kitesurfing spots around Costa Calma:
WindOptimal geographic conditions allow the prevailing north-east trade wind to accelerate between two mountains. In addition to this, the air on the island is heated by the sun and rises upwards, compressing the slightly cooler trade wind as it pushes itself beneath the warm air forming a thermal wind.
Rules/HazardsDue to the unique location most of the time the wind is blowing cross offshore, therefore the rescue service is recommended.

Between the two beaches is the stunning area of lagoons made from ocean tides. Stroll through the mountains of sand and admire the pools of water. Arrive just before high tide to catch the lagoons filling with water. Take a walk through the waist-deep puddles and look at the fish swimming around your feet. Let your kids play in the water and enjoy their bemused faces as the tide changes and the lagoons fill. Jog along the beach at sunset to appreciate the scenic view of the ocean with the changing hues of the sky. This region on the southern part of the island is particularly popular with German tourists and there are also many nudists. Risco el Paso and Playa Barca have parking facilities and restaurants.

It took a couple of minutes to cross the beach. Behind is a wide white strip of beach no less than half a kilometer, ahead is the endless expanse of the sea, a very smooth entrance. Twenty minutes passed and suddenly a miracle began! Just a white strip of sand behind us first became shiny, then puddles appeared on it, on the right the sea was already capturing this snow-white miracle, gradually taking us prisoner. It happened so quickly that it became even a little scary, suddenly the sea decided to swallow us up! but no )) it always leaves a narrow, but rather long strip of sand untouched. you can stay here and enjoy or go for a walk along it, on the one hand it goes to the hotel and leaves the opportunity not to even get your feet wet. we decided to return to the car right along the one that captured us to the sea. Fortunately, the water is not deep, just below the knee. And now you are going back, and around the sea, and to the shore 500 meters or maybe more, and behind the sea, the sea and a thin white strip of sand, reminiscent of what a few minutes ago this was the beach! You are walking along the sea and from the now bottom of the new sea many thin threads rise like beads, air bubbles. These were indescribable sensations of magic that nature can create!

Elena M St. Petersburg, Russia1,720 publications The most uninteresting beach of Sotavento For two And here there was confusion with the names. In Fuerteventura, sometimes even beaches that have their own names are labeled on their plates as the beach of the municipality, for example, two beaches: La Pared and Vieja Rey, on the plate when descending to the first one they are simply designated Pajara beaches, maybe with some kind of de la I don’t remember anymore. Because this territory belongs to the municipality of Pajara, and, apparently, to unify the plates in order to reduce costs. And on the beach in Costa Calma, on which the husband liked to swim, a sign “Jandia Beach” was installed, although Le Barca is located between it and the one to which the Sotavento de Jandia pointer leads, that is, it can in no way be part of a specific Sotavento beach de Jandia. True, the Jandia peninsula is part of the municipality of Pajara, but it is longer than the others and, perhaps, is divided into 2 parts. I didn’t know for sure, but I assume that the designation Sotavento de Jandia only means that this is a beach in the Jandia area. Sotavento, in turn, is a series of completely different beaches from Costa Calma to the south of Jandia. Perhaps it would be more correct to call it a coast, like the Cote d’Azur in France or the Emerald Coast in Sardinia. That beach of the Sotavento coast, where a lagoon forms at high tide, has its own name – Le Barca, and there is a separate thread for reviews about it.. towards Morra Jable. This is one of the longest, if not the longest, beaches of Sotavento, the most non-scenic. A strong wind here can roam much more than on smaller beaches, more protected by a high coast, it carries sand that lashes down the legs and clogs into the eyes. There are no beautiful rocks here, and the sand is completely ordinary. Well, yes, light enough. There is a windsurfing station here.
