Feel Like an Explorer in Teide National Park
Indescribable views await when you climb to the
top of mount Teide, the highest mountain in
Spain. This impressive volcano of 3718m is a
UNESCO world heritage site not to be missed. A
cable car can take you to 1200m above the crater
but the real treasures can be discovered when you
take the paths higher, although permission is
needed. On some days the peak can be cloudy
however it is still a wonderful experience
souring high in the sky above the magnificent
island. The national park itself has out of this
world moon style landscapes and an impressive 10
mile wide crater.

Soak up the Sun at Playa Del Duque
Playa Del Duque is sheltered by a small bay
protecting it from wind and rough seas. The
