The Capital, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, is about 30 minutes away from where we live in the South. We live a few miles outside the main tourist areas which can get busy with mainly Spanish and Brits.
Winter the temp averages about 20°C, it's a nice 28-30°C in Summer, every day.
4 hour flights every day from various airports in the UK and same time zone.
A lot of English live here due to the tourism and a few of us webmasters due to the weather, cheap booze and hot girls on the beaches.
A non-stop party until you settle down and then its just a great place to live (and work!)
