Activities
Tenerife is an extraordinary island, stunningly beautiful and with a strong south American culture
uninterrupted by the tourism developments of the south. Volunteers must see it.
There are also a huge number of educational activities that you can engage in, most at heavily
discounted prices for our volunteers.
Fiestas and Ritual
Each village has a fiesta at
some point during the summer
and these tend to run from late
evening through to the early
hours of the morning.
The Teide Challenge
Raise Money and tackle the
Teide challenge by climbing
the third largest, active
volcano in the world!
Sunday market in
Santa Cruz
This is a long way from our
base but worth a trip as it's
a huge market with strong
South American; African and
local influence.
Diving
One of the most enjoyed
activities. We use a long
established dive centre in Los
Gigantes which offers both
CMAS and PADI instruction.
The waters are clear and
offer rays, shark, dolphins
and octopus amongst other
marine life.
Tango Dancing
Dardo is Argentinean and
comes from a long family line
of Tango dancers, he learnt
his trade in Paris and now
operates out of an old hotel
the back end of Guimar.
La Gomera
A neighbouring island and a
visit there is like stepping back
in time. With echoes of an old
plantation (banana) culture all
around.
Other activities you can participate in include spanish lessons, mountaing biking, horse riding, doing the
Masca or Pilgrims walk or just chilling out on the local beaches.
