Tenerife
Largest Canary island
Tenerife is the largest of Spain's Canary Islands, located in the Atlantic Ocean off the northwest coast of Africa.
It is a popular tourist destination known for its volcanic landscape, beaches, and Mount Teide, Spain's highest peak.
The island's name is sometimes encountered in references to the 1977 aviation disaster at its airport, the deadliest accident in aviation history.
