Tenerife in March
Around 19.5 °C by day, sea 19.4 °C. Too cold to swim. As busy as the peak.
March is 19.4 °C by day and 19.4 °C in the sea. What separates it from February is not the weather but the end of the winter influx: the island sits at 3 out of 3 for tourist load in March against 2 out of 3 in February — more people, not fewer, which is rare in our base.
The reason is simple: by March the winterers are joined by the Easter-holiday crowd, and the island carries both at once. For a scouting trip it is the worst of the winter months — dearer and more crowded than January with the same weather. If you are choosing between January and March, January will show you more honestly what living here is like.
