Mount Teide is the reason for the stable, sunny weather in the southern part of Tenerife. For the moisture brought by the trade winds from the north condenses in the dense pine forests of the northern slopes of Las Cañadas and makes the north of the island green and fertile but also somewhat cooler and more unstable in the weather. The protected south of Tenerife, on the other hand, is blessed with more than 350 rain-free days a year, with mild temperatures throughout the year. The temperature rarely falls below the 20 ° C mark in the coastal regions, even in December or January, usually only in the evening and at night. Even in this season you can expect more than six hours of sunshine per day. Excessive heat with days over 35 ° C you rarely experience on Tenerife. This stable climate is unique in Tenerife and throughout Europe.
The exact climatic data for the south of Tenerife can be found in the table. Further information in Spanish and English is available at aemet.es, the Spanish Institute of Meteorology and at klimadiagramme.de in german language.
