Inside the “Shanty Towns” of the UK’s Favourite Destination
Joe Fish takes an eye-opening journey into the hidden side of Tenerife, the UK’s favourite holiday destination. With over 6.5 million British tourists visiting every year, the island’s booming tourism industry hides a darker reality for many locals and expats. Rising poverty, a crippling cost of living, and a severe housing shortage have forced thousands into makeshift “shanty towns,” living in cars, caravans, or self-built huts.
In this documentary, Joe gains exclusive access to one of the largest encampments, uncovering the stark contrast between those embracing the “van life” lifestyle and those struggling to survive. This is the side of Tenerife you won’t see in brochures—a story of dreams, desperation, and resilience.
