Tenerife leads tourism growth in the Canary Islands after ‘making August’

The tourism of Tenerife August and leads the growth of visitors from Canary Islands. According to the figures provided by the Cabildo, the Island received 747,123 passengers last month, 4.9% more than in August of last year (34,644 more) and 3% more than in the same month of 2019. Tenerife exceeds percentage of growth and in the total number of tourists received to Gran Canaria (+3.9% and 556,213), Fuerteventura (+4.6% and 259,329) and Lanzarote (+4.7% and 370,719).

The British market remains the one that brings the most visitors, by far, to the different tourist centers of Tenerife. In August, 212,596 arrived from the United Kingdom, with an increase of 1% compared to 2022. Following in the top five countries that bring the most tourists to the Island are Germany (45,505), Italy (24,772), Belgium (20,703) and Netherlands (18,530). The market that is experiencing the greatest growth is the Nordic one, with 77.3% compared to August 2022 coming mainly from Sweden, Norway and Denmark, which provide 4,870 people to the hotels and other accommodation places in Tenerife.

The vice president and advisor of Tourism of the insular Corporation, Lope Afonso (PP), assures that Tenerife leads tourism in the Archipelago not only in global figures, but also in those related to the percentage of arrivals in the national, inter-island and international traffic. “The Island improves the 2022 figures, which definitively consolidate the destination,” details Afonso, who highlights “the good health of the tourism sector in Tenerife and reinforces the strategy towards a quality destination, with first-class services.”

The arrivals to Tenerife In the month of August they represented the 37% of the total of the Canary Islands, provides the Cabildo in a statement. They are followed by Gran Canaria, with a share of 28%, Lanzarote, with 18%, and Fuerteventura, with a 13% share. After them, La Palma (3%), El Hierro (1%) and La Gomera (0.3%). With the exception of La Palma and Fuerteventura, which reduced their traffic in August, the remaining Islands increased their arrival figures in a year-on-year comparison. National traffic arriving in Tenerife, 325,670 passengers, was 3.6% above that recorded in August of the previous year, with an increase in peninsular traffic of 1.4% and inter-island traffic of +7% in interannual comparison.

International traffic, with 421,453 passengers arriving last month, increased by 5.9% compared to August 2022 and 6.8% compared to 2019. With the exception of four markets that reduced their traffic (Italy, Iceland, Hungary and Denmark), the remaining markets have increased their flows to Tenerife in the month of August. This month the operation from Bulgaria that began in July and that was not recorded in the previous year is maintained. Operations from Venezuela, which began in November 2022 after being interrupted since March 2020, also remain active, as does that from Morocco. Almost 63% of arrivals in the month of August were registered through the Tenerife South airport (467,775 passengers), registering an increase of 6.3% compared to the previous year. The Tenerife North airport, with an increase of +2.5%, received 37.4% of the traffic arriving on the Island in the month (279,348 passengers).

In the first eight months of 2023 Tenerife has maintained connectivity with 29 markets, compared to the 32 with which the Island connected in the same period of 2019. This difference is due to the cessation of connectivity from Senegal, Israel, Belarus, Russia and Ukraine. However, Tenerife has had connectivity from the US and Slovenia, which did not exist in 2019. Regarding 2022, Tenerife has one more market, 29, compared to 28 in the same period of the previous year. During 2023, connectivity has been maintained with Bulgaria, Slovenia and Venezuela, markets not operated in 2022. Although in 2022, unlike 2023, the Island had connectivity with Russia and Ukraine. Hence, the market balance is one more for this year.
