Swimming is possible all year round, depending on the water temperature you prefer.<\/p>\n\n Sea temperatures in Tenerife vary:<\/p>\n\n Tenerife offers numerous natural and landscaped beaches<\/a>, as well as natural swimming pools<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n Tenerife is one of the best places in Europe for whale watching.
