Agriculture has always been a traditional activity in Tenerife, and banana production stood long as a consistent part of this way of life. Banana growing and production is still an active industry in Tenerife, but in order to reveal its traditional character, as well as some other aspects related to this activity, Bananera Jardines del Atlantico opens its gates to the public who wants to know more about the side scene of banana production industry. Guided tours are also available.
Another notable banana tree plantation which has undertaken the same instructive mission refers to Bananera El Guanche, located in La Orotava. Besides the banana trees as such, this plantation also displays various other species of plants and trees.
