Earthquakes in Tenerife: Live Volcanic Map

The Canary Islands, including Tenerife, experience earthquakes linked mainly to volcanic activity. Swarms of small quakes often precede or accompany volcanic unrest, as seen dramatically during the 2021 La Palma eruption.

Tenerife's Teide is one of the most closely monitored volcanoes in Europe. The live map shows recent seismicity across the archipelago. Most Canary Island earthquakes are small volcanic tremors, but they are watched carefully because they can signal changes in magma movement beneath the islands.
