Hen Party Activities in Tenerife

Did you know?

• Tenerife is the largest island in the Canary Islands.
• The canary bird was actually named after the islands and not the other way around!
• Tuesday the 13th is considered to be unlucky, not Friday 13th, in Tenerife and the rest of Spain.
• Tenerife has a different time zone to the rest of Spain, as they use GMT.
• A lot of Tenerife’s beaches are man-made. To spot the natural ones you’ll know as they’ll have black sand instead!
• The two airports in Tenerife, in the north and south of the island, service all parts of the island but the famous Playa de Las Americas can be reached by both airports.
• Some of the big attractions include Loro Parque in Puerto de la Cruz and the volcano Teide. Will you make a visit to either of these spots?
• Tenerife’s Teide National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the second most visited park in the world.
• Mount Teide casts the largest shadow into the sea in the world.
• Tenerife’s Siam Park is the biggest water park in Europe and has one of the highest waterslides in the world.
• The Canary Islands’ wine gets a mention in two of William Shakespeare’s works. He loved it so much that he would be given a barrel of Tenerife’s wine as part of his salary!
• It’s thought that originally Tenerife was split into three separate islands with the mountain ranges Teno, Valle San Lorenzo and Anaga. The volcanic activity is said to have merged the islands together to create Tenerife as we know it today.

For some fantastic food options in Tenerife there’s an eclectic mix of traditional local food and modern establishments. Take your pick between a huge range of restaurants along the main strip in Las Americas and see what take your fancy.

Why not try a three-course Italian meal and enjoy the taste of Italy with the girls. This is a great way to take some time out before you start your big night out, catch up with your friends and have a chat over some delicious food.

Alternatively, there’s the popular Hard Rock Café where you can enjoy a two-course meal. This buzzing venue is perfect as a starter to your night out where you can get in the mood with great music, friendly service and the iconic décor. Check out the listing for this event and see if you’re tempted by the tasty menu!

After you’re suitably filled up with some delish food why not head to your next fab activity and try out Cocktail Making or your hen do in Tenerife! Learn how to make some of your favourite drinks as you’re taught what to mix, how to muddle and when to shake!

For a party in the day you’ve got to head to Kaluna Beach Club. Here you’ll find an infinity pool, solarium terrace and not forgetting the terrace bar where you can get your cocktail fix. Sip away on a drink as you relax on your reserved sun lounger, listening to the live DJ and soaking up the sun. Check out the listing on fizzbox for more information on this fab event for your Tenerife hen do.

As the day draws to a close the perfect way to explore the town is with a Bar Crawl. You’ll have a private guide who’ll show you all the best spots on the strip. This is perfect for your first night in Tenerife as you won’t know where’s best to go – so why not let the guide show you! Not only will you have a guide show you around, but you’ll also receive a free shot in each bar you go into. Perfect to get that party started and celebrate the bride-to-be!

For the ultimate night out there’s only one place to go – Tramps. The name does not reflect the venue! This spot is a hub for all party goers wishing to have one memorable night out. This club has three different rooms playing a mix of music so there’ll be something for everyone to enjoy from pop to hip-hop and classic bangers to dancehall.

Tenerife has some truly amazing nightlife and there’s only one way to truly find out how good it is – by discovering it for yourself! Whether you’re after a day party, specific event or just looking for a good night out with other groups you can find exactly what you’re looking for here.

With average lows of 17 degrees in the winter months and highs of 24 degrees in the summer, you’re spoilt with this amazing weather the whole year round. If you want to avoid the crowds then heading towards the end of autumn and right the way through to early spring would be the best time. With off-peak prices and generally fewer crowds you’ll be getting that top spot by the swimming pool, or on the beach with ease!

Alternatively, if the hot summer months attract you the most then just make sure to book well in advance as this island can get full pretty quickly! With holiday makers not just from the U.K. but all over Europe trying to get a place on this brilliant island. In order to not be disappointed, make sure you’re organised well in advance for your Tenerife weekend.

Flying into the island is no problem with two airports, one in the north and one in the south, that allows holiday makers to venture onto their chosen destination with ease. Buses run to and from the airport into all major towns, otherwise you can pay for a taxi to get you straight to your accommodation.

Whilst in Tenerife, the efficient bus service can get you from town to town and beach to beach in a breeze. This is especially handy if you fancy lounging back with a pina colada in a pineapple all afternoon. However, if you want to drive around the island, you can rent a car and head out at your own pace and on your own time.
