Fairways Club 2019 Pool works
 

Remember that the Fairways complex will be closed as a result of the works to the swimming pool and La Isla bridge during the whole of the month of May 2019. The work will include a new pool basin including sloped access allowing wheelchair access, new filtration and an independent separation of the children’s pool.

 
 
 
Fun with Oscar
 
Oscar has added Spanish lessons to his repertoire, and they are proving very popular although they will only run through the winter months. This remains a quieter period of the year, with considerably less pool activities, but there are still plenty of things to do with Pool, Table Tennis and Darts competitions. We also have Aqua Gym activities, stretching exercises and of course the bingo competition.
 
 
Off the beaten track - Barranco del Infierno
 
 
The Barranco del Infierno translates to The Ravine from Hell but it is in fact a hike of low to medium difficulty. Access is restricted to 300 people per day as part of a successful initiative to preserve the area. Places must be booked online, and there is also a small fee at the entrance to the walk. The walk winds through the ravine and the prize at the end of the ravine is a close-up view of the waterfall. As you can see from the photograph, we are not talking the Niagara Falls, but nevertheless the walk is very rewarding, and takes an average three hours in total to complete. There are plenty of trained stewards along the walk, making the hike a safe one.
The Barranco is situated in Adeje, just a short drive from Fairways, and the entrance to the walk is situated right at the top of the town next to the Otelo restaurant that is equally famous for its Adeje spicy chicken.
It certainly makes for a great day out with a meal to match afterwards.

Loro Parque
One of the most famous and best kept parks in the world, that just keeps getting better. There are fabulous shows that include parrots, sea lions, dolphins and the world-famous orcas. There is plenty for kids and adults alike, with Katandra Treetops, penguins, aquarium, gorillas and so much more. The park is regularly voted on Trip Advisor as one of the best parks in the world.

Mount Teide & Cable car ride

A visit to the highest mountain in Spain is a must when visiting Tenerife. There is a cable car service, and after that a path to the peak that rises to 3718 metres, although you will need to be in good physical condition to manage the walk. The national park itself offers a fascinating landscape, with many viewing points offering insights into the origins of the volcano and the island itself.
Siam Park
This is one of the best water theme parks in the world, so good in fact that in 2014 it was voted as the world’s best water park and has the best trip advisor rating. The park keeps on adding attractions, with each new one taking the thrills to new levels.

Helidream Helicopter Trips
