Tenerife, Spain

For such a small island there seems to be a huge demand for information about Tenerife, from the casual visitor wanting a Tenerife guide type of information service covering what to do, where to go and what to see etc. to the researcher genuinely seeking historical and current information. However the largest number of requests for Tenerife information seems to come from those people wanting to come to live and or work here due mainly to the wonderful warm climate. We at Sun4Free.com and our network of websites are going to try to put together a Tenerife guide giving information about Tenerife and Tenerife news with pages of information and how to do this, that and the other. Our aim is to give the potential visitor information about Tenerife (the land of orange trees) in a simple easy to follow Tenerife guide or Tenerife information site. This will in the future encompass a Tenerife magazine giving items of general interest as well as Tenerife news especially those items that could affect the daily lives of ex pats living here who have yet to master the Spanish language.

The island of Tenerife is situated in the Atlantic ocean about 200 miles off the West African coast at just over 2000 square kilometres it is the largest of the seven main Canary Islands. Although small in size it has as many different climatic zones as a continent, you’ll see many different types of agriculture from potatoes to orange trees. See the virtual tours on www.sun4free.com pages to give an idea of the different types of landscape available at very small distances apart. The most important part of the island is of course mount Teide, its sheer size and height dominate the landscape for miles around. Mention was made of 'El Teide' and its snow mantled, fiery cone by Christopher Columbus as well as many other early explorers, some experts claim that even as recently as Columbus's time Teide was much higher and that since he first passed the mountain has imploded and lost a lot of its height. At three thousand seven hundred and eighteen meters it's still an impressive sight and features in the repertoire of any Tenerife guide giving information about Tenerife.
