If your into your Water Sports, then the Canary Islands is a brilliant place to go, Tenerife has held the World Championship Windsurfing competition. El Medano is an excellent place for you to practice Windsurfing and Surfing whether you are a beginner (Tenerife has several windsurfing schools) or someone with more experience, with its open flat beach that's facing East, although windy it is not too choppy, which makes it an ideal all year round windsurfing competition site.
Tenerife also has plenty of snorkelling and diving coves around the island. In La Caletta there is a great snorkelling cove, with flat rocks leading into a clear deeper water and a small flat reef. In Playa San Juan, which is at the West of the Island, the edges of the black sand are surrounded by rocks. In Puerto de Santiago there is a rocky cove with three pools full of marine life. And in Buena Vista there is a large rock pool formation in the extreme North West. These are to name but a few. There are also diving schools; listed below:
