A severe kalima, a Saharan dust storm driven by southeasterly winds, impacted Tenerife in the Canary Islands during a February visit.12:24 The event, described as the worst in 40 years, forced the closure of local airports and prompted government officials to issue a state of alert, advising residents and tourists to remain indoors.15:52 High winds and near-zero visibility disrupted travel plans, including a planned ascent of the volcanic peak Mount Teide.11:16 The storm deposited thick layers of sand across the island, coating vehicles and infrastructure.15:48 Despite the conditions, the island's basalt-rock beaches remained popular destinations for locals.7:27 The travelers, who previously visited the archipelago on their former boat, *Serendipity*, noted that the phenomenon is a known winter occurrence in the region due to its proximity to the African coast.12:15 After the storm subsided, they completed a drive to the base of Mount Teide, noting that hiking to the summit requires permits booked months in advance.17:16
