Tenerife is always a good choice, as it
never really gets cold. It’s not so far on the plane and as its in Europe
everyone speaks perfect English, like home from home. I’ve been several times and always stay in
Las Americas as I like the strip its cheap enough and the local beach is
considerably nice.
Las Americas isn’t for people who like high-end restaurants or bars. Its for the people who don’t mind wearing flip flops in the club and then loosing there flip-flop because its stuck to all the alcohol on the floor and you’ve walked off with no shoe. It’s for the people who want to get drunk of cheaper alcohol or splash out and buy bottles at Papagayo the only ‘higher’ better beach club.
The beach is a typical English styled
Spanish beach aka clearish sea and dark brown sand, but at least its sand
right! You can go on different excursions my favourite being the typical hire a
jet ski for a few hours. But if your lucky like I was or maybe unlucky, I drove
the wrong way and found dolphins but at the time I was having a panic attack as
I thought I was going to go down in history for the Brit who got eaten alive by
sharks.
The food places to eat are nice and pretty
much all similar a few places do shisha and some have traditional dancing.
Tenerife is great for everyone couples included. You can have fun in the sun
and go for a drink or go for a long walk and then watch the sunset on a bench whichever
floats your boat.
From Birmingham Tenerife is 4 hours away on
the plane and is always warm even in November and December (those are the
coldest months) but its still sunbathable!
