Teneriffe tides go in and out like anywhere else. I have seen it and confirmed by the Teneriffe tides site.

The tide is controlled by the waxing and waning of the moon. When the moon waxes, it gets bigger causing a stronger gravitational pull, so the tide goes out. When the moon wanes, it gets smaller causing a more weak gravitational pull, so the tide goes in. The moon cycle is at different stages at countries around the world.

If you multiply the alcohol intake by the hours of sleep lost on an average holiday, add that to the sun factor 30 and take away the number you first thought of then you should be left with the answer.
Incidentally this is why that fat bird who works on tesco checkout always looks quite fit in tenerife too...

The further north or south you are the more pronounced the tides become. The closer to the equator the smaller the tides are.

the shores in the uk are very shallow, hence a drop of two foot in tide height looks to be 100's of yards out ... however in the med resorts and canaries etc the beaches are very steep, so the same 2 foot drop is only a few metres difference
