I’m planning a holiday to Tenerife and I’m quite curious about the climate there. I understand that the island enjoys a subtropical climate, but I’d like to know more specific details. Could you provide me with information on the average temperatures in Tenerife throughout the year? Additionally, it would be helpful to know how these temperatures vary by season and if there are particular months that are warmer or cooler. Thank you!

Summer, which runs from June to August, is warm, with average highs around 24°C to 30°C (75°F to 86°F). In autumn, from September to November, temperatures cool slightly but remain nice, ranging from 18°C to 26°C (64°F to 79°F).
Tenerife is known for its sunny weather. The island enjoys about 300 days of sunshine each year. Coastal areas tend to be warmer, while the mountains can be cooler. This mix makes Tenerife a great place to visit any time of year.
