Volunteer in Tenerife

Volunteer in Tenerife (Spain), the largest of the Canary Islands, to experience life on this North Atlantic archipelago 100km (60mi) off the west coast of Africa.

With seven times as many tourists as residents, managing this environmental pressure has made it a global leader in sustainable tourism too.

Its location in the Atlantic Ocean also means it plays host to a spectacular wealth of marine life, making it a magnet for marine conservation enthusiasts.  

It’s easy to understand why it was the first Whale Heritage Area in Europe—one of only 12 in the world.

Owing to their strategic location, the canary islands have long been considered the bridge between Africa, Europe, and the Americas. 

This exciting cultural blend makes for a rich history and unique way of life, distinct from mainland Spain which lies 1,400km (870mi) away.
