Climate on the north side does not suit me? I come out in a prickly heat rash. I cannot spend very long there from about April to October.

I know 👍

The end of the world... western Atlantic... terraces and giant cliffs to rival Machu Piccu, banana plantations, one of the most gorgeous and little-known places in our world.

Garachico is pretty touristy! But also very interesting and beautiful. Santa Cruz, and La Laguna very beautiful cities with amazing old parts, and Anaga and Teno mountains both well worth a visit.

It is one giant volcano! It’s kinda like the Hawaii of the Atlantic. Similar climate to Florida, and the canaries (La Gomera) were where Columbus made his final stop before sailing to the America’s. It’s has huge amounts of culture and history and nature. Well worth a visit!

@@nick260682 much dryer than florida. In the canaries we dont get as much rain as florida does, and winters can get cold on the islands

Like all the islands of the archipelago, Tenerife is classed as an active volcano - Teide. Last eruption 1909. There are approximately 320 vents on Tenerife, BUT only Teide, Pico Vico, Montana Blanca and Montana Rajada are classes as 'Active albeit Dormant,' as all have erupted within the last 10000 years. The vents like Mostaza, Chinyero, Negras, etc; are all monogenetic scoring cones - meaning they became active, erupted in a Stromboli style, with activity and pauses over a period of time, then stopped, as in STOPPED. They never become active again. I can suggest several books about the geology / volcanic activity; some are written for the curious person, some are directed at the geological and vulcanogical community.

Some winters there is hardly any snow, and as a result even less ice. I have seen snow in Granadilla, in March, 6 metres at tbe top station of the Teleferico. The following winter nothing! Just a very cold wind blowing in from Africa. Then it rained - for 48 hours at low levels. One year it snowed the end of May on Teide, but Pico Viejo was not affected. Mid September we walked up from Montana Blanca freezing cold, and frozen rain, which had started after we we had reached Alta Vista. By 09:00 you would not have known Teide was white at sunrise.

@@Volcano-Man thanks mate, have wonderfull.memories of tenerife. yup can get exceptional weather sometimes, remember santa cruz getting hit one time with torrential rains！

@@rogergarnham3202 Remember Storm Delta? Pylons blown down, any road that went down hill running like a Barranco - cars being washed down hill or is that 'Arroyo?'

@@Volcano-Man yup, fortunately, I wasn t living thera at the time！Having viaited many places on mainland SKpain, prior to settling on tenarife, thought the clumate there genarally was much nicer. Can get tremendous storms on the mainland as well ！！.Now living in the Philippunes, sadly no snow ect, but the occassional typhoon ！！ lol

@@rogergarnham3202 Also real blow its top volcanoes - Pinatubo, Mason etc!

In 2021 this proved wrong.

@@rd8370 No it didn't. La Palma is a totally separate island, The recorded volcanic activity on Tenerife is: Boca Cangrejo - (Mouth of the Crab), 1492; 1704 - Fasnia / Siemens Fuentes; 1706 - Montana Negras - (Black Mountain), which destroyed several villages,and Garachico; 1798 - Chahora or Narices del Teide - (Teide's Nostrils), 1909 - El Chinyero. Then in 2003 - 2008 is a series of seismic tremors occurred which was thought to portend an eruption. Analysis showed it was magmatic fluids ~10^11 cubic metres had been emplaced in to the edifice. Make no mistake 'Teide es dorma' - Teide Sleeps; and one day it will reactivate. The Santiago Ridge is considered to be the possible location, but until the magma reaches the surface no eruption will have occurred!

Junajo López Gónzalez....en Gran Canaria es peor aún.

Just because you don’t understand the science, doesn’t mean it isn’t true. There are a number of different methods of dating, and if they converge on a date you can be pretty certain they’re close to the actual date. On Tenerife you can literally see which bits are older by the valleys that have been cut by rain water. The newer bits created by the lava have far less valleys/barrancos. And the radiometic dating confirms this. Your argument from incredulity fallacy doesn’t mean dating methods don’t work.

Your ignorance is outstanding! Did you get a degree in it?
