Tenerife is the largest and most populous island of the eight Canary Islands. It is home to 43 percent of the total population of the Canary Islands. With a land area of 2,034.38 square kilometres (785.48 sq mi) and a population of 917,841 inhabitants at the start of 2019 it is also the most populous island of Spain. The name Tenerife originates from a now extinct language, Guanche, the language of the indigenous inhabitants and means snow mountain. After being there, the name makes sense.
