January is the ideal month to start the year in a different way. While much of Europe is facing cold temperatures, rain, and grey days, Tenerife in January offers mild weather, clear skies, and a sense of calm that is perfect for unwinding. Travelling at this time allows you to enjoy the island without crowds, with more balanced prices and a much more relaxed experience. It is also an ideal moment to reconnect with nature and begin the year with positive energy.
Choosing Puerto de la Cruz as your base means opting for a charming destination surrounded by nature, sea, and culture, ideal for long stays and wellness escapes. Its traditional atmosphere, seaside promenade, and proximity to natural spaces make the city a perfect place to enjoy a different kind of winter, far from stress and rush.
Mild and pleasant climate in Tenerife in January
One of the main attractions of Tenerife in January is its climate. Daytime temperatures usually range between 20 and 23 °C, while at night they rarely drop below 15 °C. This spring-like weather allows for walks, excursions, and outdoor activities without the intense heat of summer, something especially appreciated by those seeking comfort and well-being.
In addition, January is a perfect month to explore the island at a slower pace: green trails in the north, volcanic landscapes around Mount Teide, and quiet beaches along the coast. The Atlantic Ocean maintains temperatures close to 20 °C, making swimming a real option for many visitors, especially on sunny and wind-free days.

This month is ideal for retirees, digital nomads, or travellers who wish to escape the continental winter and spend several weeks in the sun. Local life continues at its usual pace, allowing for an authentic experience and the chance to integrate into daily life while enjoying the destination without crowds.
