Catch yourself a bit of winter sun

With the colder months having finally arrived, people are understandably looking for the cheapest flights to help keep the winter blues away.

Thankfully, airlines have come to the rescue and are offering flights for as little as £17 to whisk us away from the freezing weather.

One spot where Brits are known to flock to this time of year is Tenerife.

The Spanish territory, which is located in the Canary Islands, reaches highs of 20 degrees in January, and enjoys six hours of sun every day.

For those who want a one-and-done booking, you can grab a whole three-, four-, five- or seven-night 4* Tenerife holiday with return flights for as little as £189pp in January.

Even better, the offer includes flights from a variety of airports (Bristol, Edinburgh, London Gatwick, London Luton, London Stansted and Manchester), so you can get away quickly.

One spot in particular on the island has caught attention lately.

Las Teresitas beach is located on the north of the island near Santa Cruz de Tenerife, and is blooming beautiful.

Looking like something straight out of the Caribbean, the beach is rather special for the island. it features white sand rather than the black sand which is more common on the volcanic isle.

This is because it features white sand was imported from the Sahara back in the 1970 rather than the black sand which is more common on the volcanic isle.

One reviewer on Trip Advisor wrote of the location: “Beautiful beach in Tenerife, just north of Santa Cruz. Its location, away from the main tourist towns of the south, means that it tends to be a little quieter during the week – though it gets very busy at weekends as local Tenerifians make the most of this picturesque beach that wouldn’t look out of place in the Caribbean.”

A second said:  “Beautiful beach! We had a great day and we compared it to a Caribbean beach.” 

While a third put: “An unexpected incredible beach at the end of the road, with palm trees, beach restaurants and a Caribbean feeling all over. Great place for beach lovers!”
