Tenerife's own on-line magazine
I have been a fan of etenerife.com for a long time now. Apart from the fact that it is run by a fellow Scot (apologies for my not so latent nationalism!), etenerife.com is a very interesting, informative and entertaining magazine site covering many aspects of life here on the island, as well as a good source for what is happening, things to do, excursions, blogs and so on. Highly recommended!
Tenerife Carnaval
Just found a lovely site for professional quality photos of Tenerife and La Gomera in the Canary Islands, and Sal and Boa Vista in the Cape Verde Islands.
The site – canaryphotostock – has a gallery of more than 4,000 professional photos/images which can be searched in a variety of ways, including location (e.g. Las Americas, Los Cristianos etc) and type (e.g. beaches, Teide etc) or by simply just browsing.
Museum in Santa Cruz, Tenerife
The museums in Tenerife are to be made more “accessible”, not just for those who have problems with movement but also sensory disabilities as well. The initiative has three main aims; to ensure that all citizens are able to access the scientific, cultural and historical services; to promote the adaptation of other services and to respond to the needs of all paying particular attention to accessibility, communications and new technology; and finally to establish good practice guidelines for all activities relating to the access of information.
The displays will be moved to enable easier access for the physically impaired, and items will be provided with audio and tactile description to ensure the best possible experience for all visitors.
Although mainly a property site, The Tenerife Property Guide has many articles about the island, its culture and the host of things to do while visiting.
