Tenerife English Media - a guide
English language newspapers are usually free and distributed to bars and shops for anyone to pick up. There are four main ones. This is the equivalent of something like the Times in Britain. Published fortnightly, containing informative news and insightful commentaries. Tenerife's premier serious newspaper. Also published fortnightly, full of local and national news. Both visitors and residents are catered for, with featured articles, interviews, events and sport. All the latest Canarian news, plus classifieds, weather and job vacancies. The only English language newspaper in Tenerife published weekly. Founded 12 years ago, it provides both entertaining articles mingled with more serious factual commentary. It is the most popular of the Tenerife English language press and is published fortnightly.
BRITISH RADIO STATIONS There are several radio stations broadcasting in English in Tenerife. Some may or may not be still operational. There are three main ones, though. The official and most popular station in Tenerife. Broadcast partners of Tenerife CD (the football team). Lots of musical variety, broadcasting to the Canary Islands. Used to be known as "Gold FM". Music from the 60s to the 80s. There are a couple of others: QFM RADIO A multilingual radio station, specialising in unique musical content.
