31. Golf del Sur, Tenerife Canary Islands, Spain

Why

If you want to get away from the cold of Europe and soak up some sun, this is the place to go in the Winter time and the summer too. And it’s still in Europe as the Canary Islands are a part of Spain.

Also, as aviation geek, this area fascinates me as one of the world’s worst major airlines accident occurred at the Tenerife Norte Airport.
