Nights average 14.0°C; one night in ten drops to 11.6°C or lower, so pack a layer for evenings - it is genuinely cool after dark. Between 1991 and 2020 the hottest February day here reached 28.0°C (2020-02-24) and the coldest night 7.4°C (2018-02-07).

Much milder than London, but not hot
The daytime high is 10.8°C above London's February average, making Costa Adeje a clear step up in warmth without turning it into a hot-weather holiday. February sits towards the cooler end of the resort's year. The warmest 10% of days reach 21.9°C or more, but only 2% reach 25°C, so don't plan around strong midday heat. This suits travellers who want to spend time outdoors without needing it to feel like summer. Evenings need a different approach: average lows of 14°C make an extra layer sensible, particularly if you intend to sit outside after dark.
Useful sunshine, with room for rain
February brings about 7 hours of sunshine within 11 hours of daylight, giving you a useful window for time outdoors. The catch is that sunshine is not guaranteed throughout your stay: there are about 5 rainy days during the month. Keep your plans flexible rather than making every day depend on sitting in the sun. A light waterproof is a sensible addition to your bag, alongside clothes you can layer as conditions change. For a traveller happy to adapt to the weather, the balance is reasonable; for someone seeking a reliably dry holiday, February is a less convincing fit.
The sea is the main compromise
At an average of 19.3°C, the sea is bracing, so swimming is more about your tolerance for cool water than the mild air temperature. The February range of 19°C to 20°C offers little reason to expect a warm-water experience. If you enjoy a cool dip, it may suit you; if you prefer lingering comfortably in the sea, it is a drawback. Keep something dry and warm handy for afterwards. July, August and September are stronger overall choices here, while February makes more sense when mild daytime weather matters more to you than time spent swimming.
