Map & landmarks
Tenerife lies in the Canary archipelago, off the coast of North Africa. The city offers easy landmarks for organising a language course: the buses, the coastal towns and the island's main roads make it easy to organise journeys. Its island atmosphere, gentle and very much outdoors, lets you discover the destination without losing the thread of daily life.
For a student, Tenerife is an interesting base for learning Spanish in a volcanic island setting. Lessons can fit around journeys, outings and everyday exchanges, which helps you practise the language in concrete situations.
City life and landmarks
HISTORY & CULTURE
Originally inhabited by the native Guanches, the coasts of Tenerife were discovered in 1494 by the Spanish explorer Alonso Fernández de Lugo. Shortly afterwards, settlements were established on the island, propelling it into a major economic and cultural centre over the centuries. Benefiting from natural resources such as timber, salt and fishing, Tenerife prospered thanks to maritime trade as well as the emergence of industries such as agriculture, tourism, fishing and crafts. The island's reputation also extends to its culinary specialities, notably goat's cheese, fresh fish and local wines, which attract food lovers from all over the world.
