Best time to visit north Tenerife: mild weather all year
Tenerife is known for its eternal spring, and the north of the island confirms it: mild temperatures all year, greener and a little cooler than the south.
The north and the trade winds
The trade winds bring moisture to the north. That is why everything here is green, bananas grow and the famous sea of clouds sometimes appears. There is also the odd shower and the odd rainbow over the palm trees.
Is there a bad season?
Not really. In winter it can get chilly at night and the sea brings bigger waves; in summer the north is easier to bear than the south. Check the AEMET forecast before you travel.
What to bring
Light clothes, a jacket for the evening and comfortable shoes for the slopes.
