Friends and family of an Irishman who has been missing in Spain for over a week are appealing for information.

Peter Wilson (32) was last seen on the island of Tenerife on March 23.

He travelled to the Canary island from Dublin Airport on March 22 and was staying in the Malibu Park Hotel.

His family and friends have appealed on social media for anyone who may have seen him in the past week to get in contact.

He is believed to have been in the Costa Adeje and Playa de las Americas areas.

The 32-year-old is around 5ft 8'' in height, has hazel eyes, dark brown hair and distinctive tattoos of a clock and roses on his arm.

"Please contact the police, in Tenerife or in Ireland, if you have any memory of seeing Peter from March 22nd onward," the appeal on Facebook said.

"Any sighting is important, your help is vital."

A spokesperson for the Department of Foreign Affairs says it is aware of the case and is providing consular assistance to the family.
