Tenerife is known as the “island of eternal spring,”
thanks to its nearly perfect year-round weather. Located off
the southern coast of mainland Spain, it is the largest and
highest of the Canary Islands. Its beaches glisten with soft,
clean sand that is in some places uniquely black from its volcanic
origins. But the geography offers more than just sand and surf—the
island is also home to cool, lush mountains, a national park,
and the highest peak in Spain, Mount Teide.
Tenerife is dotted with historic buildings and museums. The
village of Puerto de La Cruz, in which the school is located,
centers around a famous plaza where visitors come to shop, eat,
and relax. Classic Spanish cathedrals, the Museum of Fine Arts,
and the Nature Museum provide additional opportunities to explore
the culture. Thanks to intriguing sites, ideal weather, and
a unique topography, Tenerife is a fantastic place to learn
Spanish.
