Exploring Tenerife of the Canary Islands

A beautiful and bountiful island, Tenerife holds many impressive records both locally and worldwide. Of the seven Canary Islands, it is both the largest and most populated, housing the city Santa Cruz de Tenerife which is the capital of the archipelago. At the center of the island you will find the largest mountain in Spain, Mount Teide, which is also the third largest volcano in the world. The largest number of endemic species on the entire continent of Europe can be found on the island, with over a hundred plants and animals that are native to Tenerife.
