Discover the Best Easter Plans in Tenerife

Although these days are favourable for spiritual reflection, in Tenerife we also immerse ourselves in sun and adventure.

The island offers a variety of options for enjoying Semana Santa. We recommend visiting the charming natural swimming pools along the coast and taking the children to have fun.

Some quiet beaches become meeting points for friends and adventurers. Explore volcanic sandy beaches, try water sports and admire the stunning coastal scenery.

You can also enjoy hiking through our endless trails, explore the majestic Teide and stay overnight to contemplate the clearest sky in Spain.

Enjoy Easter Sunday

This day marks the end of Lent and fills us with joy for the forgiveness that Jesus’ sacrifice brings us. In Tenerife, we celebrate with a feast including local delicacies and desserts. Use the occasion to raise your prayers and commit yourself to an honest life, as required by God the Father.

Some festivals during Easter week in Tenerife

Holy Week in Tenerife is marked by important ceremonies in towns such as Adeje, La Laguna, Güímar and La Orotava.

In Adeje, on Good Friday, locals immerse themselves in a two-hour re-enactment of the last hours of Christ. The event is family-friendly but includes graphic scenes such as the crucifixion.

In La Laguna, the Magna Procession is held at 17:00 on Good Friday, with solemn participants dressed in colourful robes and carrying large crosses.

The Procession of Silence in La Laguna, at 10 p.m. on the same day, is a moving event with the street lamps extinguished and only candles illuminating the silent marchers.

The Semana Santa events in Güímar are notable for their impressive processions with elaborate religious figures.

La Orotava, known for its historic old town, features processions throughout the week, culminating in a dramatic re-enactment of the “Santo Entierro de Cristo” on Friday at 17.00 hours.

The Semana Santa Floral de Guía de Isora is a unique event featuring handcrafted floral displays depicting the journey of Christ and attracts more and more visitors each year. The event takes place in the historic centre between Maundy Thursday and Easter Sunday.
