Tenerife is an ideal location for studying volcanism, tourism and water in a manageable, engaging island setting.

Mount Teide Crater Tour: Study a stratovolcano and volcanic landscapes up close.

Coastal Tourism Observation: Examine hotel development and beach management.

Water Resource Talk: Learn how the island sources and conserves water.

Tenerife is a fantastic destination for geography students, offering diverse volcanic landscapes, coastal features, and climate zones in a compact area. Mount Teide, Spain’s highest peak and an active volcano, provides a unique opportunity to study tectonic and volcanic processes up close.

The island also showcases tourism’s impact on coastal environments and how communities adapt to living in a geologically active area.

Tenerife balances dramatic geography with curriculum-rich learning. From caldera walks to beach surveys, it’s ideal for physical and human interaction — with plenty of vitamin D.
