Tenerife is one of the Canary Islands, a Spanish archipelago that is about sixty miles off the northwestern coast of Morocco.

The island is the remains of the world's third largest volcano from its base in the sea with a land elevation reaching over twelve thousand feet above sea level; it is the highest point in any of the Spanish territories. The center of the volcano collapsed and now forms one of the world's largest craters at over twelve miles across, Las Canadas is a sight worth seeing during your trip. It was first settled over two thousand years ago and has remained inhabited ever since, becoming a Spanish territory in 1494 and now an autonomous region of Spain.
