Best Answer

Tenerife is an island in the Atlantic Ocean, just off the coast of Africa, which is part of Spanish territory and has received cultural influences from North Africa, Europe and the Americas, having been at the crossroads between all three of these continents since the 16th Century.

Hence, geographically Tenerife is in Africa, politically, it's in Europe and culturally, it is a least partly in America.

Tenerife is part of the archipelago called Canary Islands, while the Canary Islands belong to Macaronesia.

Macaronesia which inludes Tenerife is totally unique and unlike Africa because of its isolated geography, geology and climate.
