The Barranco del Infierno or "Hell's Ravine" is a natural gorge on the Costa Adeje, created by the effects of seven million years of water erosion. Together with other rock formations, this site forms part of a Protected Natural Space known as the Barranco del Infierno Special Nature Reserve.

The Playa de las Américas beach is the centre of Tenerife's nightlife. It is also rather special during the day as it is one of the islands few white sand beaches.

Tenerife's typical traditional cuisine is based on produce from the land-potatoes, tomatoes, olive oil, cheese. Visitors can enjoy some of the island's most emblematic dishes, such as "papas arrugás" (boiled potatoes in their skins) with mojo picón sauce -"mojos" are sauces made with oil, vinegar and a mix of other ingredients that might include garlic, pepper, parsley or coriander-and typical meat and fish dishes. Don't leave Tenerife without trying the much-appreciated Canary bananas, and the prized Designation of Origin wines and the rum.

Tenerife is a destination for fun and leisure. During the day the beaches are the place to go, but when night comes around there is a huge choice of bars and discos.
