Summer seasonal fruit calendar in Tenerife.
The summer climate of Tenerife
On this occasion, we want to tell you how the summer climate of our beautiful island influences the quality and variety of the products we offer.
Tenerife is known for its subtropical climate, with mild and pleasant temperatures throughout the year. However, summer brings with it an environment that is especially conducive to growing a wide range of fruits and vegetables. During this season, temperatures usually range between 25 and 30 degrees Celsius, accompanied by a pleasant sea breeze that cools the fields. These factors, along with an average of more than 300 days of sunshine per year, create ideal conditions for the development of vibrant, flavorful crops.
En Sanus Market, we offer products grown locally in volcanic soils rich in minerals, which gives a unique character to our fruits. Summer weather is particularly beneficial for tropical fruits such as mango, papaya and bananas, which require a large amount of sun to reach optimal ripeness and develop that sweet, juicy flavor that we love so much.
At Sanus Market, we not only seek to offer healthy foods, but also connect our customers with the natural wealth of Tenerife. Enjoy the freshness and quality of our seasonal products, knowing that each bite is a sample of the love and care with which they are grown.
