Pleasant Climate In Tenerife Makes It A Perfect Vacation Spot
Are you looking forward to enjoy your holidays to Tenerife? If yes, you made the right decision. Tenerife is popular to tourists due to its beautiful beaches, magnificent valleys and mountains, ancient ruins, rural towns, thriving communities, and friendly people. Actually, lots of tourists think that Tenerife is the closest thing to a perfect paradise.
Part of the reason Tenerife is popular with tourists is its pleasant climate. Named as the Isla de la Eterna Primavera, or “Island of Eternal Spring” Tenerife has a warm climate all throughout the year having 26- to 28-degree-Celsius temperatures during the summer months. During winter, the temperature goes down to an average of 20 to 22 degrees Celsius. The pleasant temperature is due to tradewinds whose humidity is condensed over the north and northeast side of Tenerife. Also, cold sea currents of the Atlantic have a cooling effect on the shores of the island. The lay of the land also contributes a lot to the climatic differences in the valleys, massifs, plains, and mountains of the island.
During cold season, it is possible to still enjoy the sunshine at the beaches. But just a few miles inland and at 3,000 meters above sea level, the land would experience a gentle snowfall. Thus, it is recommended to bring warm clothing even if you are at the beach basking in the sun.
In addition, at low altitude, climes may contrast significantly. For example, the southeastern side of the island is characterized by an arid climate while the northwestern side has a Mediterranean climate.
Summer is from May to September, and the land is normally dry. Rainfall is quite erratic from one year to another. Total per-year precipitation is quite low. The north of the island receives 73 percent of the total precipitation in Tenerife.
