Volcanoes have left their mark everywhere here – on snow-capped Mount Teide, on black sand beaches, in rich soils and natural sea pools – yet each island is unique. Palms, pines, vineyards, and banana plantations each offer their own shade of green. On some islands you’ll see terraced farms clinging to valley walls. On others, trails trace the cliffs and reward hikers with breathtaking ocean views. And there’s always something new to do.
