Tenerife is a year-round destination, but the most popular period for Scandinavians is during the winter months (November to March) when temperatures at home are low. Then you can enjoy pleasant temperatures on the island, usually between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius. The summer months (June to August) are also popular, but it can be hotter, especially in the southern part of the island.
