As the weather is usually brilliant at this time of year, it would be a shame not to take full advantage of the warm sea temperature and take part in some water sports! K-16 Surf in Playa de las Americas offers surfing lessons for all abilities and rents out surfboards too!

On the other hand, if you're here with the little ones you may want to take them to the Monkey Park, located in Los Cristianos to keep them entertained whilst on holiday.

The Canary Islands offer a wonderful array of traditional culture and heritage of the native people mixed with attractions that tourists expect to see in order to be entertained and to keep them coming back year after year. Los Cristianos is an island that has found that balance between the two extremes.

The island's most important festival of the year is held during this month. It is in honour of Nuestra Senora de Candelaria, the patron saint of the island. During this week-long celebration, over 250,000 people come to the city each year in order to celebrate for themselves and to witness the large-scale celebration in person. The island is never more populated than it is at this point in the year.

Romeria de San Roque is another prominent annual festival held every year in Garachio, Tenerife. This spectacular event attracts crowds of pilgrims from across the island who arrive to honour the town's Patron Saint San Roque.

Last but not least, the Festival Son Latino is one of the island's most exciting Latin music events, which takes place on Playa de las Americas Beach. This highly anticipated event is a favourite for music lovers on the islands and attracts many famous groups from across the world.
