What’s the weather doing right now in Tenerife?
The live forecast above gives you the current temperature and conditions for the main towns. For a more detailed look, the 10-day forecast shows how the weather will trend over the next week, while the 14-day and 30-day outlooks help you plan ahead, especially if you’re booking trips to resorts like Adeje or Las Américas.
Seasonal trends – what to expect month by month
Tenerife stays mild all year, but the season affects where you’ll find the best sun. Tenerife weather in December and February still offers 20–24°C on the south coast, though nights are cooler. The north gets more cloud and rain during winter. From May to October, temperatures climb to 28–30°C, with very little rain. For a month-by-month breakdown, check a Gran Canaria weather comparison – both islands share similar patterns. The 10-day and 14-day forecasts are reliable for trip planning, while the 30-day outlook gives a general sense of trends.
Is Tenerife warm in December?
Yes, especially in the south. Daytime highs in December average 22–24°C in resorts like Adeje and Las Américas. Evenings can be cooler, so pack a light jacket. The north is cloudier and cooler.
What’s the best time to visit Tenerife?
For guaranteed sun, May to October is ideal. For a quieter trip with still pleasant weather, November to February works well in the south. The shoulder months of March, April, and November offer a good balance of warmth and fewer crowds.
Does it rain much in Adeje?
Adeje, on the south coast, is one of the driest spots on the island. It gets only about 30mm of rain per month in winter, and virtually none in summer. The live forecast above will confirm any brief showers.
