Spanish term or phrase: recrearnos la vista con todo esto
Comments from people about the Canary Islands.

Los sentidos
Algo único y que no se puede representar en guías, son los sabores de nuestra gastronomía, el olor de nuestros paisajes, el sonido de nuestras aguas, el tacto de nuestras gentes y **recrearnos la vista con todo esto**.

- all this, and views to die for
Explanation:
I also like (and it was what 1st sprang to mind) "a feast for the eyes", but feel that ending with this is a bit weak coming at the end of the list. As this is a tourism text, I'd be more concerned about this than following the ST syntax.

If I were to use, I'd add some intensifier, like "a feast for the eyes, to boot" - to add some oomph to the ending.

Anyway, a few "views to die for":

sights to behold / a feast on/for the eyes


Explanation:
If you're willing to change the syntax slightly, I think these are good, natural ways of saying it.

feast our eyes on all of this


Explanation:
Definitely "feast our eye on..." but "all of this" is a bit lacklustre and I'd try to make it more snappy, not quite sure how, will add a not if I can think of anything beter:)

the myriad sights for sore eyes


Explanation:
I think it's referring to the topography (Teide, Tenerife is the highest mountain in Spain) and the fact that the North of the mountainous islands is lush and green due to the prevailing winds that blow from the north-east and bring rain.
