Tribal Terenife still shows influence from the aboriginal Gaunches people. Visitors clamber to conquer Mount Teide (Spain’s tallest peak) and to stretch out on the sands of Los Gigantes. Squawk hello to the playful parrots of Loro Park, or brave the petrifying drive to beautiful Masca Valley. For a true taste of Terenife, sample fresh farmhouse cheese and local bananas. A piece of delicate calado canario lace makes a special souvenir.

Completely free, this museum is particularly dedicated to volcanism and the origin of Tenerife (and other Canary islands). This center makes use of different communication means to explain the island genesis: videos, pictures, illustrations and games. Explanations are very comprehensive and available in all languages. If you have the time, I recommend to watch a short film, in a small cinema theater, that narrates the island story with a mix of legends and scientific facts. Ask for headphones at the reception to listen to the story in your language. If you have had enough of volcanism, you can go outside and have a walk in the arboretum... if the weather is correct of course ???? ! When I was there, the weather was very cloudy and rainy. That's life! So, don't forget to stop a while in this center! Apart from the visit, you can also ask for helpful information if you want to hike in the amazing Teide national park (for example, having an accurate forecast weather). The person at the reception was particularly helpful and speaks different languages.

Situated half way between the bus station and old town with plenty of free maps to help you take advantage of this delightful town.It can be a bit confusing trying to find your way around but help is on hand.It was particularly useful when searching for the great variety of cribs - Belens at Christmas time - a must see for anybody in the area.
