Enclave excepcional, instalaciones con años pero muy bien mantenidas. Trato del personal exquisito.

Realizaron trabajos a primera hora en la habitación superior y nos despertaron, deberían tener consideración antes de trabajar.
Baño un poco justo de espacio y antiguo.

Ideal

El desayuno perfecto. La ubicación ( terraza), perfecta, pero una salvedad : Presencia de gatos. Lo siento, no les gustan a todo el mundo, y a mis hijas menos. Hasta el punto de abandonar el comedor

Solo tema gatos

La larga lista de servicios en el lugar incluye cuatro grandes piscinas de forma libre, ocho (caros) restaurantes, amplias instalaciones deportivas, un hermoso spa y un gimnasio con clases de Pilates, yoga y meditación.

Un extenso complejo frente a la playa para familias y parejas

Ubicado en varios edificios neocoloniales construidos en medio de cientos de pies cuadrados de exuberantes jardines tropicales, Gran Hotel Bahía del Duque es uno de los complejos más grandes de esta parte de Tenerife. La entrada al área de recepción principal está marcada con una pirámide de vidrio, similar al Louvre. La decoración en las áreas comunes es cálida y romántica, sobrecargada con plantas tropicales, muebles de mimbre y madera, azulejos de terracota y adornos de hierro forjado. Las lámparas de calle, las fuentes de estilo plaza españolas y el uso liberal de columnas añaden a la grandeza. Los terrenos extendidos albergan cómodamente cuatro piscinas, deportes en el lugar e incluso un observatorio astronómico. Los huéspedes aquí son en su mayoría familias, pero el ambiente romántico y las comodidades de lujo lo convierten en una buena opción para parejas también.

Ubicación

Directamente en una de las mejores playas de Costa Adeje, Playa del Duque

El complejo se encuentra directamente en Playa del Duque, una de las mejores playas de Costa Adeje . La zona es principalmente residencial, pero hay restaurantes, tiendas y bares a unas pocas cuadras, y hay un par de grandes centros comerciales a poca distancia. Los huéspedes que deseen explorar otras playas pueden tomar un taxi o conducir hasta Las Américas , Los Cristianos o La Caleta , todos a menos de 15 minutos en coche. Y aquellos que prefieren usar el transporte público pueden tomar un autobús a todas las principales playas de la zona. La famosa playa de Fañabé, conocida por su arena oscura, se puede llegar paseando por el paseo marítimo. Y el aeropuerto de Tenerife Sur se puede llegar en coche en 20 minutos, y en autobús en aproximadamente una hora. Hay una parada de autobús a cinco minutos a pie de la entrada principal.

Habitaciones

Luminoso y espacioso, con detalles de playa y comodidades de primer nivel

Inmersos en colores pálidos, marinos, verdes marinos, gris topo y gris almeja, las habitaciones evocan un sutil ambiente playero que se destaca aún más con suelos de baldosas, toques de mimbre y ventiladores de techo de madera oscura. Todas las habitaciones son amplias, con camas extra grandes y balcones o terrazas amuebladas. Pero a pesar del tamaño y las comodidades sólidas, algunas habitaciones dobles estándar se sienten un poco básicas y en ocasiones pasadas de moda (la lechada de baldosas sucias no ayuda). Suites más grandes y suites familiares de dos dormitorios con salas de estar separadas también están disponibles. Los baños con mármol blanco incluyen artículos de tocador Acqua di Parma, batas y pantuflas.

Las habitaciones en Casas Ducales se encuentran en una sección separada del complejo y tienen algunas ventajas adicionales, incluido el registro de entrada privado, servicio gratuito de cava al mediodía y servicio de mayordomo. Las unidades más lujosas del hotel, sin embargo, son las Villas. Estas unidades de varias habitaciones son las más decoradas con gusto con camas con dosel y bancos de brazos. Entre los servicios adicionales se incluyen bebidas gratuitas del minibar y cafeteras Nespresso. Y cada villa también tiene grandes terrazas con sus propias piscinas privadas.

Características

Un lujoso spa, ocho restaurantes, 13 bares, grandes piscinas y amenidades para toda la familia

Una de las características más atractivas aquí es el inmenso spa, ubicado en un edificio separado con un hammam al aire libre, cabañas y 20 salas de tratamiento. Pero el hammam es solo el comienzo cuando se trata de las características acuáticas del complejo, que incluye cuatro piscinas de forma libre que ondulan alrededor de glorietas, pasarelas, un montón de plantas tropicales, tumbonas y múltiples bares. Hay ocho opciones para comer en el lugar para elegir, incluida la cocina italiana, española, tailandesa y francesa. Todos son buenos pero caros, y la mayoría ofrecen asientos al aire libre. Los huéspedes que deseen mantenerse activos durante sus vacaciones no tienen que conformarse con simplemente nadar, ya que se ofrecen clases de yoga y pilates, tenis, pádel, squash, minigolf e incluso ping pong. En la recepción se pueden reservar excursiones de un día en yate, y se puede acceder a la playa directamente desde la propiedad. El club infantil ofrece actividades diarias y un área para adolescentes con PlayStation, juegos de mesa y una mesa de futbolín. Los niños, y los adultos, también pueden recibir educación en el observatorio astronómico en el lugar que ofrece noches guiadas de observación de estrellas.

Beach

Una playa pintoresca que hace honor a su reputación

Una puerta de color terracota en los terrenos del complejo lleva a la Playa del Duque, una amplia franja de arena blanca salpicada de cabañas azules y blancas, sombrillas de paja y sillones blancos que miran hacia las olas del océano sin obstrucciones. Un pequeño malecón de madera conduce al complejo. Los amantes de la playa también pueden pasear por la pasarela pavimentada del océano, iluminada por farolas de hierro forjado por la noche.

    Staff and management should be more mindful of guest needs. When we would ask for a special request, answer was immediately no. They would eventually accommodate but only after we show discontent. Staff should first listen to guest needs and then find a solution.

    The hotel is in a great location with great facilities but the rooms are dark and getting tired and dated. We didn’t get given a room upgrade with our VIP status until we pushed for it as they said they hadn’t been informed. The Spa benefit was just access to the jacuzzi and sauna not actually a treatment so we didn’t use them. The staff however were great and it’s a fantastic site and location.

              Life on a volcano / Travel.Ru / Countries and regions

              The Canary Islands are solid volcanoes, but they are so cozy that locals
              residents build houses right in the craters.

              Europe or Africa?

              Important question. Canary Islands is Europe7 Indeed, from Gibraltar 1000
              kilometers, and from the south of Morocco – 115. That is, geographically the Canaries – Africa. But geography
              the case ends. Anyone who has been to the Canaries knows that the Canaries are a piece of Spain,
              and one of the very best. The roads are excellent, the cities are well-groomed, the Canaries do not have dilapidated houses.
              endure, the streets are washed with a special shampoo, as in Holland, it is more difficult to find garbage than in
              Austria, you can go to restaurants without fear, as in Germany… Top notch service
              European level, serving Spaniards, British, Germans, Swiss. Therefore, the only
              true conclusion for a tourist: the Canary Islands are Europe.

              High season in the Canaries in winter, when the Canaries remain the only warm and sunny
              point of Europe. From the countries of mass tourism, you can swim in the sea in winter in the Emirates, Egypt,
              Thailand, Sri Lanka, Maldives, Seychelles, Mauritius, Brazil,
              Mexico and the southern islands of the Caribbean. In terms of cheapness, the Canaries share third place with
              Thailand, ahead of only Egypt and the Emirates. In favor of the Canary Islands flight time
              (six hours by charter flight to Tenerife) and a subtle time difference with Moscow
              (three hours.) But the main thing is why many tourists choose to vacation in the Canary Islands, and not in
              Thailand or Dubai, the desire to relax in Europe.

              Tenerife: duck in a volcano in the stomach

              The shape of the island of Tenerife is usually compared with a duck. Capital Santa Cruz de Tenerife
              head, this is the north, here is Loro Park and Puerto de la Cruz. According to the old rule of health,
              the Tenerife duck keeps its head in the cold, and its feet are warm at the feet of the south, the resort noise,
              the most famous beaches. The Teide volcano is in the middle, it is in the stomach.

              Head

              The north is the ocean, black and gray beaches covered with rocks, forests, fogs, morning chill,
              calm cities. Although the northern part of the island is much larger than the southern part, in the north everything
              one third of hotel rooms. Some Russians love Puerto de la Cruz because there are few
              Russians. Puerto de la Cruz is a calm resort town on a mountainside, it is not at all
              reminiscent of the villages of the southern coast stuck together in a strip. Box hotels in Puerto de la Cruz
              compactly crowded in the eastern part and do not spoil the overall impression. Historical part
              cities are west. Long, half an hour walk, beautiful pedestrian Columbus Street (Avemda
              de Colon) goes from the west along the promenade, past elegant bars, restaurants and discos, and
              then it rises steeply and disappears among the hotels and parks. Ancient houses in the city
              few, but many oleanders and thick palms.

              From 15 to 20 July, Puerto de la Cruz remembers that it was not long ago a fishing town,
              and the remaining fishermen hold celebrations in honor of Our Lady of Carmen. Statue of a virgin
              they carry her out of the cathedral, and the fishermen insult her in every possible way. It is believed that the more nasty things
              you tell the maiden, the more successful the catch will be. In normal times, old fishermen sit on their favorite
              the townspeople of Piazza Charco, smoking Canarian cigars and talking about football. Cigars are light, with
              mild, non-depressing aroma, they smoke them inhalingly. It’s cool in the north in the morning, the air
              warms up only to eleven, and then vacationers go to the beach. They are going, because
              many hotels are on the mountain, far from the ocean. Celebrities visiting the city
              stay at the aristocratic Hotel Botanico. Here in the presidential suite
              visited the king and queen of Spain, Michael Jackson and one of our oligarchs, an avid
              botany lover. The hotel is owned by a German, so there are a lot of elderly Germans in Botanico who
              they can’t stand the noise and don’t go to the ocean, but they spend the whole day walking in the hotel park and swimming
              in a pool with artificial sea water.

              Hotel Tigaiga Tenerife is also located far from the coast, but it is also always full. Tigaiga
              attracts tourists by the fact that it is built without the slightest synthetics. The hotel arranges
              folklore performances with Canarian wrestling, music and dance. canarian music
              different from Spanish, it is slower and sadder, because in the old days the Canarians lived very
              poor and emigrated by the thousands. Typical Canarian instrument small five-stringed
              guitar “timple”, there is no romance in its sounds, but with an excess of nostalgia and sadness about unfulfilled dreams
              youth. Artists perform in traditional Canarian clothes, that is, they are not dressed for the weather.
              warm and thick. In the old days, poor Canarians wore one-layer clothes, one socks, one
              trousers, one shirt. And the rich dressed in layers, like Moscow homeless people, put on
              themselves with all the clothes they had. Canarian wrestling was not invented by the Spaniards, but by the “wild”
              aboriginal Guanches. Grabbing each other by their underpants, the wrestlers try to throw and push
              opponent from the circle.

              The beaches in the vicinity of Puerto de la Cruz are narrow, gray and black volcanic sand.
              Playa Martmez in the city center, Playa Jardin on the western outskirts. Most vacationers
              prefers pools located on the shore with running sea water. To all Canaries
              beaches entrance is free, money is taken for the rental of sun loungers and umbrellas. Entrance to seaside
              swimming pools – 200 pesetas. Russians who got to the north, as a rule, rent cars or
              take a taxi to deserted beaches between the cities of Puerto de la Cruz and Garachico, the most
              the most popular of these beaches is Playa del Socorro. This is a small beach under a rocky cliff.
              The sand from a distance seems completely black, but close up you can see that it is very clean, like water.
              Many argue which sand is better black, volcanic, or yellow, ordinary. On the beaches
              Canary is not an idle question. There are natural beaches and with sand brought from
              Dominican Republic or mined from the bottom of the ocean by an excavator. By own
              black sand feels less sticky to wet feet, but more pungent.

              In the city of Orotava, ancient buildings have been preserved. There are many beautiful hanging balconies from
              Canarian pine. On one of the old streets is visited by tourists “House of Balconies”
              with souvenir shops in the courtyard. Of other attractions, the former
              Masonic palace and mausoleum with a park in pseudo-Versailles style. Orotava is also known as
              the center of carpets made of volcanic sand and flowers. Loro Park has the world’s largest
              a collection of parrots, eleven of which speak Russian. Here you can see
              quality shows with dolphins, fur seals and parrots, and the local aquarium is comparable
              except with Eilat – around the glass tunnel through which visitors go, swim
              at least twenty different sharks. Opened this fall “Penguin Planet”
              advertised even on Russian television, there are no such number of penguins in
              one zoo in the world. Loro Park is open daily from 8.30 to 18.00, ticket price – 4000
              pesetas for the whole day, including the show. Tour guides tell visitors a story
              the emergence of the park. One day a German boy asked his father what kind of animal he should get.
              After thinking, the father advised to get a parrot. Firstly, the food is cheap, and secondly, you can
              teach German curses and take money from school friends for listening. Boy
              listened to wise advice and now he is the owner of the Botanique Hotel and Loro Park.

              Garachico is an ancient town through which fiery lava passed three hundred years ago. From that
              catastrophe, the remains of the old port have been preserved, on the site of which there is now a flower garden. near the fort
              there is a good fish restaurant on the shore, and right under the restaurant there is a natural lava pool,
              sea ​​water freely flows in and out through the porous cliffs. Garachico has an interesting
              a monument to an emigrant, a bronze man with a suitcase and a through hole instead of a heart.
              Canary islands of emigrants. At first, the Spanish authorities forcibly drove people here from
              mainland, then forced the Canarians to go to colonize America, at the end of the last century
              Canarians left voluntarily, in search of a better life. It’s nice to sit in the cafe “At the Emigrant”
              for half an hour over a glass of brandy and reflect on the vicissitudes of fate. Who would have thought,
              that the Canarians will live better than their compatriots on the mainland? So was it worth tearing out
              heart, leave your homeland and go to Uruguay, Chile, Colombia and Cuba? By the way, promotion
              Canarian emigration left Spain sideways: parents left Garachico for South America
              Simon Bolivar.

              In the capital of Tenerife, Santa Cruz, tourists go shopping near the port.
              shops with quality Spanish things. Santa Cruz is the center of the annual carnivals. AT
              In 2000, carnivals were held in Tenerife from February 18 to March 12, the program included balls,
              contests, processions and the mysterious “Sardine Funeral”.

              Legs

              The south is the tourist center of Tenerife, most tourists from Russia rest in the south. Here
              it is always sunny, the beaches are comfortable, long, familiar. Hotels, apartment complexes,
              restaurants, bars, pubs, shops, discos are in dense formation along the coast.
              A 7 km promenade stretches from Los Cristianos to the Bahia del Duque hotel.
              All the beaches of the south are artificial, filled with fine white sand extracted from the bottom of the ocean. Day
              rental of an umbrella 300 pesetas, an umbrella plus a sun lounger 600 pesetas.

              Los Cristianos is the closest beach to South Airport. It is visited by locals because they live
              nearby. The quarters of Los Cristianos are more or less like a living city, all the rest
              built specifically for holidaymakers. Las Vistas is a new beach, it is well protected from
              ocean waves with breakwaters, and so that the water does not stagnate too much, it is built in the middle
              the fountain. Las Americas is the most famous and most developed by Russians beach in Tenerife.
              Here are shops with expensive goods of dubious quality, pubs, fast food eateries and
              restaurants with goofy food. Here merchants try to speak Russian, meet
              Russian inscriptions, the restaurant “Marusya” functions.

              “Grand Hotel Bahia del Duc” – a small beach, an extension of Las Americas, but without shops
              and American kitsch. Here, close to the embankment, the territories of the best hotels in the south adjoin:
              “Jardin Tropical”, “Antelia Park” and “Grand Hotel Bahia del Duc”. Favorite hotel of the wealthy
              Russians, Bahia del Duque is located at the very end of the southern beach area. Hotel buildings lined up
              in the style of Canarian architecture of the beginning of the century, and luxury is fundamental and ubiquitous. Bahia
              del Duque is the only “five star de lux” in Tenerife. Sometimes they arrange
              interesting activities. For example, they spend weeks of reconciliation. Two years ago managers
              hotel brought together two hundred couples around the world who were going to get divorced. During
              stay at the hotel about 150 couples reconnected. Although, of course, no one knows
              how long the charm of Bahia del Duque has lasted.

              This year, Bahia del Duque has a powerful competitor-neighbor, a four-star hotel
              Anthelia Park, which we can safely recommend to readers – it is not seen
              shortcomings. The owners-architects themselves were engaged in construction and developed design,
              many interiors are quite suitable for their photographs to decorate design magazines.
              Of the special advantages of the hotel: a large swimming pool with sea water, which comes from
              depth of 70 meters, good beach, electronic locking system for doors, gates and gates,
              the best value for money in Tenerife.

              organized by different companies. If you book at the hotel, the prices will always be higher than exactly this
              the same tour, but booked at the street office.

              Wise Kitchen

              Guidebooks praise the Canarian cuisine as “homemade, simple, healthy”. I’m afraid, but Canarian
              Russians are unlikely to like the full kitchen. For example, in a good restaurant Los
              Paroles (Puerto de la Cruz) in response to a request for something authentic Canarian, chef
              brought out a huge aluminum pot filled to the brim with a brew of whole marrows,
              sweet and ordinary potatoes, carrots and beans. Rare pieces of meat floated in the brew,
              blood sausage and liver, as well as boiled garlic. All this the chef called
              dissonant name “puchero”. As they say in the guidebooks “Canary cuisine is very simple,
              but at the same time wise and has a wide range of sensations”…

              A Russian tourist from “wise” cuisine highlights jacket potatoes, mojo sauces and rabbit.
              Potatoes are not simple, but local, with a thick and durable skin, grown at a height not lower than
              900 meters. Such potatoes are boiled in steeply salted water, crystals appear on their uniforms,
              inside, the potatoes are not very salty and go well with octopuses, shrimps and sauerkraut
              fish “only”. Potatoes are usually dipped in mojo sauces. There are two types of them, red with pepper,
              spicy, and green with garlic, spicy. Both sauces are based on white wine and
              olive oil. Canary rabbit stew with salmorejo sauce for gourmets, in
              a cheap restaurant will ask for 1800 pesetas for a rabbit.

              Beef is always served barely cooked, with blood. If you ask to roast it, it becomes
              tough and impossible to eat. Canarians do not like soups and eat them only when it is cold.
              Potahé vegetable soup for an amateur vegetarian, also a purely Canarian invention, for
              On the mainland, this soup is not eaten at all. It is much more interesting to eat fish in seaside
              restaurants. Let’s walk along the embankment, take a closer look, where there are more people and locals sit
              and let’s go there. Let’s look at prices. Lunch with appetizers, fish and a glass of wine is unlikely to exceed
              2000 pesetas. If higher means an expensive restaurant, and the high cost of a restaurant is far from always
              depends on the quality of the dishes, rather on the place and props.

              The most expensive fish is “mero”, this is such a big bottom fool with an ugly muzzle, he
              very curious and kind – and, unfortunately, tasty. Also roads “ink”, a fish like
              sea ​​bass, but with fewer bones, and “lubina” – a predator like barracuda, but with
              more tender meat. “Vieja” is put in the first place by many gourmets for taste, but for
              The price is still in the middle of the list. Vieja tastes like bonito, but it has meat
              red like salmon. Cheap fish are flounder (large portion $8), tuna and
              bonites. Fish “burro” is not very appreciated, but it is tasty. All types of fish are cooked without fuss
              fried in olive oil over a quick fire and add the fried flour loved by the Canarians
              gofio. Dish with seven types of seafood: mussels, small shells, king prawns,
              regular shrimp, octopus, pieces of cuttlefish and lobster – $30. But gourmets should
              Keep in mind that, unlike fish, all seafood is imported. Octopuses are better
              grilled, not marinated, because they usually marinate large octopuses, and on
              they have a lot of slime.

              From cheap wines, it is better to take Canarian 1998 and 1996. Some restaurants offer
              young wines of the current vintage, not yet bottled, are the best choice, rosé
              “Taganana” 14-15 degrees intoxicated, but easy to drink. For those who count dry wines
              too sour, the famous “Malvasia”, a semi-sweet wine from Lanzarote
              grapes. Grapes for Malvasia are grown on volcanic sands and before pressing.
              lightly sun-dried. It may happen that there is no malvasia in the restaurant, then
              you need to ask for “semisweet” – and they will bring a similar wine from the mainland. If there is no desire
              tasting local wines, a sure-fire option is to order Rioja wines (“Rioja”) 1996
              year, in the store a bottle of this wine costs 600 pesetas.

              When it’s cold, Canarians drink honey with rum. After dinner, a very sweet banana liqueur or
              brandy. The Canaries are the only place in Spain where they drink as much beer as wine.
              The most common light Tenerife beer is Dorada, but Tropical is better. By the way,
              Russian beer lovers and even the British envy the Spaniards, because in their language beer has
              plural. It is written, for example, on the stall “cervezas” and it is immediately clear what is
              There are several varieties to choose from. Otherwise they write “beer” or “beer”, and go and know, maybe there
              and don’t go in. You go to “Beer”, and you: “Sorry, we only have Zhigulevskoye today”
              without too much assortment”. Or you go to “Beer”, and you: “Today we have only” Guinness ”
              delivered, if you don’t like it, get out”… Coffee in the Canary Islands is preferred like espresso, strong,
              but with condensed milk – cortado con leche condensada.

              Road to Teide

              A huge volcano has been sleeping since the Spaniards landed on the archipelago for five hundred years. AT
              good weather, Teide is visible from everywhere, but it looks especially beautiful from the ocean or from
              southwest coast of Gran Canaria. In the second week of rest, almost everyone has a desire
              climb the peak. A winding road leads to the foot of the volcano. Starts with the rise
              eucalyptus forest, then eucalyptus trees replace Canarian pines. Canarian pine is very durable,
              fire resistant and odorous. Previously, it was used in construction, but now trees are protected
              and make only souvenir houses and glasses. After 1000 meters it becomes damp, pines
              they thin out, mosses hang in tatters on the trunks, and malicious mistletoe nests in the crowns. At the mark
              1200 meters – eternal fog, occasionally you can see a mouflon here. Actually, animals
              The Canary Islands are few, once or twice in two weeks you will see a bat, a large, clumsy
              a lizard and, if you’re lucky, a whale.

              The fog is gone forever, there are no more trees. Willow-herb-like herb appears
              “teide”. At the entrance to the national park there is an astrophysical observatory. In January
              last year, the observatory was covered with snow, and scientists were evacuated by helicopters. For
              tourists snow blockages on the Teide a beautiful attraction: you swim in the ocean and look
              on a dazzling snow dome. Entry to the Cañadas del Teide National Park is free.
              The border is not marked, but if you pick up a stone, guards will appear from nowhere and
              politely asked to put the stone in its place.

              The beginning of the national park is the side of the huge, 26 kilometers in diameter, Cañadas crater, in
              in the center of which is the Teide cone. Cañadas is the second largest crater in the world
              second only to Tanzanian Ngorongoro. But if in the Tanzanian crater they graze
              thousands of herds of antelopes and giraffes, then in Cañadas lifeless, rearing, but
              amazingly beautiful lava desert. Obsidian veins glisten in the sun, underfoot
              fragments of bubbling gray lava crumble. On the edged slopes it can be seen that the layers of lava
              different colors – there are red, yellow, blue-black … Among the stones grow 57 plants,
              which are not found anywhere else. For example, a dirty-yellow shrub “retama” –
              they make perfume out of it. Tourists rub the leaves, and a disgusting smell comes from the retama
              smells of wormwood and spicy cheese at the same time.

              Tajinaste grass columns with small red flowers and Garcia rocks, remnant pillars from
              multi-colored tufa symbols of Tenerife. The rocks are in the middle of Cañadas del Teide Park,
              between the main tourist centers of the island, to Puerto de la Cruz – 50 kilometers, to
              Las Amencas beach – 52. Near the symbol, you can eat at the Paradores restaurant. AT
              the only building of the national park, except for the restaurant, is the hotel Canadas del
              Teide, people who suddenly decide to spend a day or two in a lava
              desert and admire the endless shadows at sunset. Directly from the hotel
              several hiking trails with a total length of 76 kilometers have been laid. Tourists take stock
              water and walk along a rocky road, looking at plants, caves in which shepherds lived, and
              other curiosities like the incredibly strong web of a local spider. If you are too lazy to walk,
              you can take a ride on the car of the park, you will have to leave it in the parking lot. Book excursions in
              the park is not allowed, this is done in advance, in one of the travel agencies.

              During the day, the winds are warm, but as soon as the sun disappears, the cold leans in. Already in October morning on
              altitude of 2300 meters is about zero, and by the evening minus three degrees. Every year several
              tourists leave the trail, stray and freeze from the cold. But death is too lazy to chase
              loners, death guards near the funicular. Every year 40-50 people get heart attacks
              during a trip to the top of Teide, because in ten minutes the height changes from 2300 to 3550
              meters! Considering that most tourists go up to the funicular in cars from the shore
              ocean, it becomes obvious that such a rapid climb is far from being possible for everyone.
              Posters warn that extreme elevation changes are bad for cores and the elderly, but
              Few refuse to rise.

              Hermit Augustine

              The world’s only inhabited Bandama crater is located 20 kilometers from Las Palmas,
              its depth is 200 meters, its diameter is a kilometer. In the very center of the crater in a small house lives
              55 year old peasant Agustin. He is a real Canarian: small in stature, with dark skin and
              blue eyes. He lives without a mirror, bath, washbasin, TV and radio. in the crater
              he was born, his parents lived here with ten children. Parents died, brothers and sisters
              left the crater, but Agustin remained. In his garden, he grows beans, potatoes, and in
              garden – oranges. He has many goats, dogs and one donkey. Once a week Augustine packs
              donkey and goes to the nearby market to sell the harvest. The rest of the time he talks to
              dogs and a donkey, and civilization only reminds of itself with golf balls nearby
              from the crater there is a golf course where the rich from Las Palmas play golf. He has thousands of balls
              and to everyone who goes down into the crater, Agustin gives the ball. Locals warn visitors
              visit the hermit that he loves beer, and the guests are brought to the crater “servesas”.

              Gran Canaria: scarlet sails, mummies and safe bullfighting

              Las Palmas is a large port city. In the past, our ships always stood here, but a few
              years ago, they began to charge for parking, and now ours enter only in case of emergency
              need. But on the streets near the port there are still shops with Russian signs,
              where Indians trade. However, Russians now prefer to shop in the pedestrian zone.
              quarter of Triana, and walk in the historic center of the city Vegeta. Worth a visit
              Museum of Columbus Casa de Colon – five hundred years old house of the governor, where the navigator
              stopped three times before his expeditions. The Museo Canario has a collection of skulls and mummies
              extinct Canary aborigines – the Guanches. The mummies were preserved much worse than the Egyptian ones, but
              smell worse. According to the skulls, scientists have established that there were two types of Guanches. Some had an elongated
              face, wide forehead, European nose and were tall people, others were broad-faced, but
              short and stocky. When asked if Sancho Panza is a typical representative
              Guanches, the museum worker could not answer.

              It is believed that the Guanches disappeared among the Spanish settlers, but some of them
              Indigenous Canarians inherited blue eyes. In this case, the first candidate
              living guanches are the hermit Agustin from Bandama crater. According to the exhibited in the museum
              props, the Guanches were definitely Berbers and Tuareg. Anyone can make sure
              in this, comparing Guanche pottery, fabric patterns and decorations with exactly the same, but
              now sold in the markets of Marrakech. After wandering around the city, you can swim right in
              modern center on the natural 7 km Las Canteras beach, the water is quite clear.
              The fish restaurants on the shore cook well, but the prices are above average. In the center of the island
              volcanic deserts, overgrown with outlandish milkweeds, tuff mountains filled with wild
              date palms, deep gorges, serpentines of highways, quiet towns and villages
              with a measured patriarchal life.

              Before the era of tourism, most Gran Canarians lived in the mountains, few lived on the coast. And life
              the mountains are harsh, the land is stony, dry, only prickly pear and prehistoric
              curiosity – semi-cactus-semi-shrub “tabaiba”. But for some reason, not harsh people live in the mountains, but
              kind and funny people. They smile heartily and do not think about tips, and some
              believe they don’t know what it is.

              An interesting innovation in Canary life is the Guanche cave fashion. More recently in the caves
              the poor and the losers lived, and now the caves are in great demand, only the cave
              complexes in mountainous areas and very small grottoes. The average cost of a repair
              caves for 60~70 sq. m. in a prestigious area $50,000. Wealthy Canarians buy a cave
              under the cottage and attach the house, it turns out stylishly. But in some places cave settlements can be
              see it in its ancient form – for example, in the mountain village of La Atalaya or in a seaside town
              Agaet. On the northern outskirts of Agaete, the “Finger of God” sticks out of the sea – deified by the Guanches
              and the most famous rock in Gran Canaria. By the way, in the guidebook “Window on the World” it is written that
              in Agaete and Galdar “the remaining Guanches live” unfortunately, this is not so.

              The best beaches are in the south. The most famous El Inglés and Maspalomas, eight
              kilometers of which are occupied by huge dunes. Mountains of sand brought from the Sahara by an insidious wind
              “sirocco”. Sirocco is not a natural disaster, and it is easy to survive it, but the smallest
              dust penetrates even through tightly closed shutters. There are many vacationers on Maspalomas at any
              the season, but there is enough space for everyone on the dunes, and nudists go unnoticed in the sandy pits.
              Palmitos Park is located 10 kilometers from Maspalomas, in the gorge. It doesn’t have shows like that.
              like in Loro Park, but much more trees and cacti, many butterflies and hummingbirds.
              Bullfighting has not been held in the Canary Islands for 30 years. But at Palmitos Park there is a small farm,
              where those who wish are dressed up in torero costumes, taught techniques, exclamations and poses and taken to battle
              a harmless bull, but they don’t give a muleta.

              Most of the hotels in Maspalomas are located far from the beach, but the sea water pools
              is everywhere, and the large four-star hotel Gloria Palace has, among others, and
              hydrotherapy pool with sea water and a variety of massage showers. Other resort
              point in the south – a former fishing village with a good beach and many hotels
              Playa de Arguineguin, the sunniest place on the island. Fishermen at 5-6 pm right on the beach
              they bring fish for sale – hurry to local restaurants! Twice a week, Wednesday and
              Saturday, in Arguineguin there is a large market with souvenirs, fruits, sausages, spices
              and all sorts of continental goods. On the outskirts of Arguineguin is the most famous
              Hotel Gran Canaria Steygenberger la Canaria. Very white and fine sand on the beach of the hotel
              brought from the Dominican Republic. The well-known
              billionaire adventurer, arms dealer Onan Khashoggi, Helmut Schmidt visits twice a year
              and Beckenbauer, occasionally – Steffi Graf and Anatoly Karpov. Spent two weeks here
              the inventor of the Rubik’s Cube and remained in the memory of the staff as the most greedy of the guests
              he always walked around in a single shirt and bought absolutely nothing for himself or his family.
              Hence the conclusion: if you are a famous person, have at least two shirts and give a couple of tips
              porter and porter. Obock with the main building – gray timeshare complex “Amphibich”, old
              the problem of gullible Russians.

              The tourist center of Puerto Rico has good roads, a pedestrian promenade over the sea and
              artificial white sand beach. Some vacationers walk along the promenade to the new beach
              with artificial sand Los Amadores, where the water is cleaner. From the port to boat trips
              boats, catamarans and brigantines with scarlet sails depart. Here moored
              to the Guinness Book of Records, the world’s largest catamaran “Supercat”, on it at the same time
              150 people go to sea. Fishermen go out into the ocean on yachts and boats. They take from a person
              $50 (provided that there are six applicants), fishing time from 9.30 to 15.00 or from 15.00
              until 20.30. They catch marlin, tuna, bonita, mackerel, but the most interesting thing in this place is hunting
              on sharks. Excursion on a yellow submarine – $25. Walk on a brigantine with the reds
              sails (audience over a hundred people) – $35 with lunch.

              A sea trip to the west is a path past sheer lava cliffs to completely wild places.
              From here you can clearly see the huge Teide rising above the clouds. In one of the cozy bays you can
              swim, and it is not known where jet skis and “bananas” will suddenly appear. West of
              Puerto Rico beaches are small, sandwiched between sheer cliffs, but very clean. Perfect place
              – four-star hotel Taurito Princess. Hotels and apartments clinging to the rocks have
              elevators and tunnels, so getting to the sea is easy. Germans like to relax on Gran Canaria,
              therefore, here more than half of all hotel beds are apartments. This is explained by
              that the Germans always count money (once again, remember the cheap food for the notorious parrots).
              The Germans choose apartments not to go to a restaurant, but to cook in their own kitchen.
              Apartments and bungalows are combined into complexes, where there is everything the same – a swimming pool,
              restaurant, bar. But Russian women believe that if there is a kitchen in the room, then it is gone.
              rest…

              Puerto de Mogán is a beautiful village surrounded by canals with houses entwined with flowering ivy,
              and good fish restaurants. The beach is completely protected by a breakwater, but this is not only
              dignity, but also a disadvantage – the water is much cleaner on the nearby “wild beach”.
              Construction is underway all along the coast west of Puerto Rico. Build quickly, but still
              before the trip, it is better to find out from the sending travel agency about the state of the resorts. The further
              to the west, the less civilization, the mountains are wild, nature is untouched. Factories in the east
              ports, hundreds of thousands of Laspalmazians, resorts in the south, greenery in the north, rural life, and
              in the west, only the whistle of the wind and the sound of the surf.

              Excursions in Gran Canaria

              Excursions in Gran Canaria are organized by one company, so prices are similar everywhere. Overview
              bus tour of the island – $30. Before a long journey inland, it is better
              take a pill for motion sickness, the road is beautiful, but the turns are sharp, frequent, even for adults
              becomes uncomfortable. Camel or donkey ride in the dunes or inland, one hour
              skiing plus lunch in a Moroccan restaurant (cous-cous, dried apricots with almonds and other Arabic
              stuff) $25. There are resort-specific activities – for example “Cowboy Night”.
              Unlimited liquor plus show $40. A good Broadway-type show (artists from Russia)
              at the Melia Tamarindos hotel (San Agustin, Maspalomas), next to the casino hall (for entering
              passport required).

              Flight to Lanzarote from Gran Canaria – $120, to the beaches of Fuerteventura $50 (half an hour).
              The flight to Marrakesh lasts an hour and a half, a one-day excursion costs $200. Lovers of real
              medieval exoticism is worth considering. From Russia to Morocco, only
              “Aeroflot”, and to Casablanca, from which Marrakech is at least four hours away.
              There would certainly be a lot of people wishing if it were not for visas. For one day entry to Morocco visa
              not needed, but the Spaniards will not be allowed back to the Canary Islands – usually the Russians are given a one-time
              tourist visa. Same story with day trips to Senegal and Gambia (fly 2
              and a half hours, price $300). The tour includes a jeep safari through the jungle, riding
              boat, eating cheap lobsters and fried scallops on the seashore, leaving early in the morning,
              return back at 3 am. Getting from Russia to Senegal or the Gambia is incredible
              difficult and expensive. And the rare holders of a multiple entry Spanish visa are delighted with
              lightning-fast throw from the Canary Islands to black Africa.

              Trouble

              A common phenomenon in the Canary Islands is theft from a car, beach and pickpocket. Typical
              example: our compatriot cheerfully walks through the evening Santa Cruz. Paying for a glass
              water, he takes out several large bills from the inside pocket of his jacket, then looks for a trifle
              – and continues to walk. Suddenly, a well-dressed gentleman accidentally hooks him with his shoulder. “Oh,
              sorry, where are you from? From Russia? Are you looking for a disco?” This is where the clapping and fraternization begins.
              Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, our compatriot notices a strange movement at his feet, looks
              down – and, oh horror! All bills, it turns out, are already on the pavement. The pickpocket shook out the money
              from inside pocket! “Call the police?” “No, what kind of police, Russian friend?” “Well,
              then get out of your shoes, Canarian brother!”

              Another case: a tourist rented a car and put things in the trunk, as they teach in guidebooks.
              Returning after dinner, he found that the thief had managed to open the door, climbed into
              trunk and stole all things. All thefts are committed either by visitors from the mainland or by emigrants.
              Recently, an Algerian was detained for theft for the twenty-fifth time (!) – and released again: in Spain
              liberal laws. It happens that a passport is stolen along with the money, then you have to go
              to the police. If you have a driver’s license or a regular passport, then the police will issue a certificate
              with a photograph. With such a certificate, they will be released from Spain without any problems, but at Sheremetyevo-2
              unwrapped, can be sent back. Therefore, you cannot leave the islands with a certificate,
              you need to send a fax to the consulate and wait for a response. Then the usual order: requests
              and issuance of a certificate of return. Hence the conclusion: the passport with you once again is not
              wear and store in a hotel safe.

              Llafranc, Sa Pedrissa, Cudillero and other most beautiful resorts in Spain

              Among the high-rise hotels and tourist spots in Spain, many untouched seaside resorts have been lost. Here are some of the best alternatives to mass tourism, from boutique hotels and quiet seaside towns on Spain’s south coast to colorful fishing villages on northern Spain’s rugged, less-visited coastline.

              Llafranc

              Although a fairly lively seaside town, Llafranc has fortunately escaped the worst of mass tourism and remains a traditional, beautiful Costa Brava destination. The golden sandy beach is gently lapped by the beautiful blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea and is surrounded by a beautiful promenade and town square, where restaurants serving excellent local cuisine are located.

              Sa Pedrissa

              Sa Pedrissa is located between the Serra de Tramuntana and the Mediterranean Sea. This is a romantic place on the northwest coast of Mallorca. Sa Pedrissa is housed in a beautifully restored 17th-century house filled with rustic charm in just nine rooms. It is famous for its stunning rock pool with panoramic sea and mountain views, and lush gardens.

              Cudillero

              Spain will be open for tourists in July

              Spain will be open for tourists in July

              When will Spain open its borders to tourists? This question worries many who are used to enjoying their holidays in sunny Spain. Foreign tourists can preliminarily count on the fact that they will have the opportunity to relax in Spain in early July. If the epidemiological situation does not change, this issue can be considered resolved: on Sunday, Pedro Sanchez announced that from July 1, foreigners will be able to enter the country. And this means that everyone who wants to relax in Spain, who are ready to comply with certain preventive measures, will be able to enjoy their holidays on Spanish beaches this summer.

              Of course, the opening of borders at the first stage will not be massive. According to government representatives, this would be irresponsible and endanger the people of Spain. According to the Minister for Environmental Transformation, the main challenge will be to ensure that no one arriving from abroad poses a risk in terms of infection. As Teresa Ribera noted, after the opening of borders only guests from countries with a favorable epidemiological situation will be allowed into Spain , because the Covid-19 virus was imported to Spain by arrivals from other countries.

              Hotel Bahia Del Duque, located in the Canary Islands, can be a great place to relax.

              Currently, the indicators of the epidemiological situation in the Canaries, Balearic Islands and Andalusia are, according to the minister, “extraordinary”, allowing to guarantee the safety of both residents and visitors of these regions. As part of quarantine measures in Spain there is a ban on movement between provinces, so that the favorable epidemiological situation is not at risk. However, in the event of a mass opening of borders, the situation can change very quickly.

              According to Senora Ribera, the EU is aware that tourism is a very important sector of the economy for many member countries of the Commonwealth. For this reason, European governments must act together to ensure the safety of all EU residents and those who come to Europe from other countries.

              Today, there is already interest and demand from foreign tourists who would like to holiday in Spain as soon as the pandemic is brought under control and real summer weather settles in the country. But even when the borders are open, movement within Spain will be limited, at least for a while. Even now, the authorities of many regions, including resorts, are expressing their desire to temporarily restrict entry in order not to endanger the health of local residents. This is especially true for visitors from the regions of Spain and other countries with an unfavorable epidemiological situation. Although Teresa Ribera did not name specific cities, it is clear that the reference was to Madrid and Barcelona, ​​which were particularly hard hit by the epidemic. At the same time, many southern and eastern provinces of the country, island and inland territories were practically not affected by the epidemic. However, it is here that the capital’s residents traditionally prefer to relax in the summer, which causes some concern for local authorities.

              The current opinion of the Spanish government is that until a vaccine against the coronavirus is developed and until its mass use begins, it is too early to celebrate the victory. The risk of a second wave of the epidemic remains, and none of the Spaniards wants to be in quarantine again. Nevertheless, with the opening of borders, taking into account security measures and a quick response to possible risks, it will be possible to return to normal life in the near future, even if this return will include certain changes in social behavior.

              Central square in the municipality of Valladolid in Spain.

              Currently, Spain is gradually returning to normal life as part of the phased lifting of quarantine . Different regions are lifting restrictions at different speeds, but the government does not plan to shorten the time frame for each transitional phase, which is now two weeks. Spain’s first priority is to preserve the health of citizens, not economic considerations. According to Teresa Ribera, the street protests that took place last week in several regions of the country, supported by the right-wing opposition and aimed at the speedy removal of quarantine, are irresponsible. In this situation, all residents of Spain must act together without endangering public health.

              At this stage, the country is in a fairly strong position in terms of identifying and extinguishing a possible second outbreak of the virus. If events develop according to the scenario that the government has developed, then by by the end of June or the beginning of July, most of the territory of Spain will be ready to return to normal life, however, observing the new rules of social distancing.

When she stumbles across the ad, she’s looking for something else completely.  But it seems like too good an opportunity to miss – a live-in nannying post, with a staggeringly generous salary. And when Rowan Caine arrives at Heatherbrae House, she is smitten – by the luxurious “smart” home fitted out with all modern conveniences, by the beautiful Scottish Highlands, and by this picture-perfect family. What she doesn’t know is that she’s stepping into a nightmare – one that will end with a child dead and herself in prison awaiting trial for murder.

For years, rumors of the “Marsh Girl” have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. But Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand.

  • The Secret History of Koch Industries and Corporate Power in America

  • By:
    Christopher Leonard

    Jacques Roy

  • Length: 23 hrs and 15 mins

  • Unabridged

Just as Steve Coll told the story of globalization through ExxonMobil and Andrew Ross Sorkin told the story of Wall Street excess through Too Big to Fail, Christopher Leonard’s Kochland uses the extraordinary account of how the biggest private company in the world grew to be that big to tell the story of modern corporate America.   

Unfreedom of the Press is not just another book about the press. [Levin] shows how those entrusted with news reporting today are destroying freedom of the press from within – not through actions of government officials, but with its own abandonment of reportorial integrity and objective journalism. With the depth of historical background for which his books are renowned, Levin takes you on a journey through the early American patriot press, which proudly promoted the principles set forth in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.

  • Length: 10 hrs and 17 mins

  • Unabridged

David Epstein examined the world’s most successful athletes, artists, musicians, inventors, forecasters, and scientists. He discovered that in most fields – especially those that are complex and unpredictable – generalists, not specialists, are primed to excel. Generalists often find their path late, and they juggle many interests rather than focusing on one. They’re also more creative, more agile, and able to make connections their more specialized peers can’t see.

The Tourist’s Jamie Dornan, Shalom Brune-Franklin react to twist

The Tourist episode 1 spoilers follow.

“She’ll tease you / She’ll unease you / All the better just to please you.” These are the lyrics to ‘Bette Davis Eyes’, a song that Kim Carnes pushed to the top of the charts in 1981. But these words could just as easily apply to The Tourist, the BBC’s new amnesiac thriller which opens with Jamie Dornan singing this very song – in the first scene, no less.

Once that rendition is done, it’s not long before the show’s first twist hits you like a truck. And then the twists just keep on coming, briefly teasing you with one idea before tearing that all apart with something new. The way this show plays with both your mind and with genre in general will please and unease you in equal measure, much like the song implies.

Digital Spy sat down with stars Jamie Dornan and Shalom Brune-Franklin (via Zoom) to discuss “the next six hours of nuttiness” that viewers will face watching The Tourist back home.

BBC

Jamie, you’ve had quite a year for singing with Barb and Star – ‘Edgar’s Prayer’ is a personal faveand now ‘Bette Davis Eyes’ in The Tourist. Why it was important to establish your character in this way?

Jamie Dornan: Well, I guess it was— yeah, f**k, I’ve been singing a lot.

Shalom Brune-Franklin: I want a released cover of ‘Bette Davis Eyes’ by you.

The perfect Christmas gift!

JD: I think I’ve sung in the last four, maybe five jobs I’ve done. And it’s not planned. It’s just something weird that’s happened. But, listen, we’ll crack on.

You know what I love about that Bette Davis moment? I love that whole opening of the show. I think it really humanises someone that we are then going to deconstruct, because he’s going to lose his memory, and we’re going to piece it all together. But it gives the audience this real version of where this guy is at that time.

“I think I’ve sung in the last four, maybe five jobs I’ve done. And it’s not planned.”

We see that he’s super sort of confident and relaxed, and in a good place, and singing purposefully badly to that song. Usually you’re in a good space in your head if you’re singing along to a song on the open road – unless you’re cry-singing to Adele or something, you know? [laughs]

I think it’s really important for the audience to see him there, based on what we’re about to be given over the next six hours of nuttiness.

Shalom, your character goes through a lot in the first episode too. Everything we think we know about Lucy is flipped round by the end. What was the challenge of playing that character within a character?

SBD: That first scene that she has… It’s definitely the hardest scene I had in the whole show, because I this fear of, “OK, I don’t want to give too much away for the audience, but at the same time, it needs to be realistic, because she’s seeing, essentially, someone she knows very well, and trying to play that…”

I remember trying to play that moment – I was playing it over a million times in my head. And then on the day, I just remember getting really caught up in my head, because I was thinking about the audience, and what they would put onto me in that moment as well.

BBC

I remember constantly turning to Jamie and Chris [Sweeney], and being like, “Was that shit? That was shit. That was too much, wasn’t it?” And Jamie’s like, “No, it was great! It was great!” I was just leaning on them like mad.

But that was the hardest scene of the whole shoot, just that. And I was always really turning to Chris. I’m so glad that there was so much trust there, because he was incredible from day one.

In every single moment, sometimes it’s even just a little look that can give too much away, and things like that, until the gag’s kind of up. So it was challenging. I mean, I didn’t want to overplay it either, because, you know, it becomes boring to watch, I think.

Another challenging scene to film, we imagine, was that car crash at the beginning of episode one. Jamie, how involved were you with the stunts and physicality of that?

JD: Too involved. That was proper… F**k. We had a lot of time in the schedule. I think the first two weeks of the shoot was just that chase, you know? And that wasn’t enough. We had to come back later, and find time to do stuff in the studio with it, on a Simtrav (a giant indoor screen for simulating vehicle action), where I was in a studio, and there was stuff going past.

“I remember constantly turning to Jamie and Chris, and being like, ‘Was that shit? That was shit.'”

You can tell how covered it is; how much drone action there is; how many different cameras there are inside; the reality of really being out there in the dirt, and getting shit stuck in my eye. It was really mad… It felt like what it must be like to shoot five months of Mad Max or something – this constant abuse in the Outback.

But I think it makes for a really great opening. At the risk of sounding like Tom Cruise, I do like to be involved as much as I can in all that stunt stuff. But there’s a line sometimes where they just won’t.

“I just know how things work with insurance and stuff. There is a f**king line. So we had a line, obviously, but I will do everything up to that line, because it’s fun, and I enjoy it. While my body just about still works, I will do anything.

Ian RoutledgeBBC

We’ve seen a lot of characters suffer from amnesia on TV before, and sometimes it can come across as a bit clichéd. What sets The Tourist apart from other takes on this idea?

JD: I just think tonally what we’re doing with The Tourist is different from any memory loss/amnesia show before. It’s a pretty f**king serious thing, to lose your memory. So often, it’s in very dramatic, serious ways. It obviously has its place, and has been done brilliantly before, and it’ll be done brilliantly again, in that realm.

But I think the way that Harry and Jack [Williams] wrote it, where we’re playing constantly with genres almost, this will really – once you see beyond the first episode – tread that line between madness and comedy and drama and obscurity. So it’s not just some linear thing of, “This guy’s lost his memory. Now we’re going to tell the audience what happened.”

We do, but we do it in the most f**king warped way. So I think that, for me, helped set it apart. Because I’d done it before in stuff, and I wouldn’t do it again if it was the same way of treating it that I had before.

“At the risk of sounding like Tom Cruise, I do like to be involved as much as I can in the stunts.”

SBD: That’s such a good way of answering that, because I feel like even thinking about the character’s reactions to someone who has lost their memory – it’s almost mocking or “Oh my God, look at this guy”. It’s kind of making light of something the whole time. So it’s not taking itself too seriously. Which I think is kind of interesting. A little bit different.

That idea of playing with genre really comes through with that final line at the very end of episode one. It’s sort of funny, but also, it’s actually pretty messed up!

SBD: That final line is like my favourite thing in the first episode. “Who is this?”

What was your initial reaction to the big twist and that final line?

JD: I guess when you’re reading stuff, you’re – in a big way – trying to see it as if you’re an audience member, and how they… you know, how is anyone going to f**king watch this?

BBC

I feel like the tone we were talking about there, that almost being funny – get used to that, because there’s so much of that madness, of like, “Should we be laughing at this?” [laughs] Or should we be not laughing here. But it’s funny, and that person’s doing funny shit in this very heightened moment.

There’s loads of that over these six hours. And I feel that all the episodes end in a similar kind of, “F**king hell, what is going to happen next? This is mad.”

One of the best things about reading these scripts was that – wanting to know more, and wanting to have more revealed about the journey of The Man. That was a big part of it for me.

SBD: I completely agree. I remember reading that first episode, and begging to try and read more. I was like, “Wait, I want to know what happens. I want to figure out what–” I mean, I was clearly auditioning for this. I was like, “I really want to play this part. Come on. It’s written by Brits but it’s an Australian character. I feel like if I didn’t get cast, I should probably quit acting.” [laughs] It felt like the perfect ‘me’ show.

“It’s a pretty f**king serious thing, to lose your memory.

I just remember being fascinated by what was motivating all these people, and why were people lying? And why were people trying to kill him? I wanted to figure out the mystery. It was such a page-turner.

Is there anything you can tease about what’s coming next beyond episode one?

JD: There’s just a lot of… I don’t know how to say it without giving some stuff… He’s had a lot of… It’s very eventful, basically [laughs]. There’s six hours of events that involve all kinds of very colourful characters, and very strange dealings, and hopefully stuff an audience haven’t seen before that have brought him to that point at the beginning.

And I feel like there’s just lots of thinking you understand what the relationship is between two characters in it, and then that being totally spun on its head. Which will keep people guessing the whole way.

BBC

Does this story feel complete, in your eyes, or would you perhaps like to revisit these characters one day?

JD: Well, the whole series ends with Armageddon, so life doesn’t exist anymore. Nothing can—

SBD: I didn’t want to say it, but yeah. I’m glad you did.

JD: It’s the end of days. Also, Shalom said, to do a second series, she’d be demanding seven mil an ep.

SBD: It was actually 7.5, but yeah.

JD: The BBC can’t do it. They just can’t do it.

Finally, what have you enjoyed most about starring in this show?

JD: My thing is: just enjoy the work. Enjoy the job. What comes after, it’s pretty much out of your control. The reception of it is often out of your control. I’ve had the whole gamut of reactions to stuff I’ve done. And that’s just, I guess, the reality of it. So I enjoy the day-to-day, and I love it when that is made easier by the people you’re doing it with.

“My thing is: enjoy the job. What comes after, it’s pretty much out of your control.”

We just had a real laugh on this. It had its difficulties, this shoot. I had a personal grievance at the beginning of it. It was difficult for me, and it made it all the more lovely an experience that I had Shalom and Danielle just being rock stars. We just really, really had a laugh, you know? Like, all the Aussie crew were just brilliant. We were tight. And that’s what it’s all about for me. Whatever comes next is whatever.

The opportunity to work with cool, fun people that you haven’t had the chance to before, that’s everything for me.

And you, Shalom?

SBD: Yeah. I completely agree. I mean, it’s hard to go off the back of that, because that’s it. But I think it’s so nice as well to be filming in these places that were so… let’s just say they weren’t very densely populated. It was really nice to be stuck with a bunch of amazing people in this town that has one pub. It was just so lovely. There was such a nice spirit on set. It was definitely the people that made this job so special.

The Tourist airs daily on BBC One while the whole first series has now dropped on iPlayer.

Tourist Travel Pass | Official tourism website

The Tourist Ticket (also known as the Tourist Travel Pass) can be used on all types of public transport in the Region of Madrid. Allowing you to take unlimited trips within your chosen timeframe, it is a practical and inexpensive way to get around Madrid.

Passes are valid for 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 7 days and for two zones (A and T).

Are you going to stay in the city centre and do you plan to get around there? Then Zone A is the right option for you since it covers these services:

  • Use of the Metro in zone A (City of Madrid) – including the 3€ airport supplement,
  • All blue EMT city buses (except the yellow Airport Express shuttle),
  • Renfe Cercanías commuter trains covering zones 0 and A,
  • Metro Ligero light rail train ML1.

Are you going to be in Madrid for several days and are also planning to visit the surrounding area? Then Zone T is the right option for you, since it covers:

  • The entire Metro network.
  • All blue city buses (except the Airport Express shuttle) and the green intercity buses in the Region of Madrid, including services to Guadalajara and Toledo. This pass encompasses all 8 zones, from A to E2 (6 zones in the Region of Madrid and 2 in Castilla La Mancha).
  • All Renfe Cercanías commuter trains (zones 0, A, B1, B2, B3, C1, C2).
  • Metro Ligero light rail trains ML1, ML2 and ML3, and the ML4 Parla tramway.

Zone T is the recommended option if you’re planning on making day trips to places like El Escorial, Aranjuez or Alcalá de Henares.

IMPORTANT: It cannot be used on high-speed trains (including the AVE to Guadalajara and the Avant to Toledo) nor Renfe Operadora regional trains. It is also not valid on Tourist Trains.

Why buy a travel pass?

All Tourist Travel Passes are pre-loaded onto the Tarjeta Multi, a contactless, transferable smartcard that is valid for 10 years and which is free when you purchase the 1,2, 3, 5 or 7-day Tourist Travel Pass. Once the Tourist Travel Pass expires, you can top up the smartcard with pay-per-ride tickets.

Where buy a travel pass?

You can purchase the pass at:

The Tourist movie review & film summary (2022)

Reviews

Brian Tallerico

HBO Max continues stealth drops of some of the best drama mini-series on television. Last year highlights included “The Head” and “Station Eleven,” and they start 2022 strongly with the fantastic “The Tourist,” a twisty tale that plays like an Aussie version of “Fargo.” With sharp dialogue, clever plotting, and career-best work from Jamie Dornan and Danielle Macdonald, this is a great little thriller, a show that constantly keeps you guessing and entertained in equal measure.

The “Belfast” and “Fifty Shades of Grey” star plays an unnamed man (at least for a while) who is driving through the very remote Australian outback. He stops at a station to use the bathroom, banters with the guy behind the counter, and hits the road again. Looking in the rearview mirror, he sees a truck gaining on him with remarkable speed. The Man twists off the road to avoid it and the trucker follows, revealing through a POV from his cab that this is very intentional—he’s trying to kill this tourist. They race through the desert until The Man’s car crashes. He wakes up in a hospital with no memory of who he is or how he got there.

Enter a small-town officer named Helen Chambers (Macdonald), engaged to an awful man named Ethan (Greg Larsen) and thrust into a mystery about who this handsome Irishman is in a hospital bed. When The Man finds a note with a time and a location in his pocket, he heads to a small town called Burnt Ridge, where he meets a woman named Luci (Shalom Brune-Franklin) who might know about his past, ends up crossing paths with a sociopath (Ólafur Darri Ólafsson) who clearly wants him dead, and gets a phone call from a man who’s been buried underground. And then things get even weirder.

Created by the people behind the excellent “The Missing” (which aired stateside on Starz), the writing on “The Tourist” is a metronomic back and forth between reveals and how those reveals propel the narrative in a new direction. Pushing their way through all the chaos are Dornan and Macdonald, both phenomenal. Dornan finds a quirky, unsettled way to play a man who doesn’t know who he is without resorting to the cliché of the lost soul. If anything, he leans into more of a blank slate interpretation of amnesia, playing a guy who’s more open to what comes next because he can’t remember what came before. And Macdonald is charming and so incredibly likable that she becomes the heart of a show that can be cold at times.

Echoes of “Memento” and “Fargo” aside, “The Tourist” also has its own quirky personality. Some of those quirks get a bit extreme in late-season episodes in ways I can’t spoil, but the show is never boring. It’s a reminder that the Dornan who was so great in “The Fall” is still out there, and I hope it leads him to more bizarre, challenging roles like this one. There’s an argument to be made that there’s an even-better 100-minute movie in this six-episode mini-series, but that’s not the world we’re in right now. A story like this has a better chance to be told in the TV system than the mid-budget film one, and the writers don’t drag their feet or spin their wheels like so many streaming thrillers. They’re constantly moving our hero forward, keeping us uncertain about his past and even his moral center.

Some will argue that “The Tourist” gets too convoluted and I’ll admit that I enjoyed the playful uncertainty of the first half of the season more than the intensity of the second half. Although the show does get deeper in how it unpacks lies we tell ourselves and those we listen to from other people. It turns out that everyone on “The Tourist” has a secret or two, and almost all of them could use a car accident to reset the hole they’ve dug for themselves. 

I’m not sure how intentional it is but the show never stopped reminding me of some of my favorite early Coen films—the noir danger of “Blood Simple,” the open roads of “Raising Arizona” (and a bearded hunter who seems unkillable), Macdonald’s very Marge Gunderson character—and yet these nods to greats are embedded in a breakneck plot that never slows down enough to distract from its own inspired storytelling. Take the trip.

What Exactly Is a Tourist Visa?

A tourist visa or visitor visa is an official document that allows you to get in another country. In general, you are likely to need one every time you visit another country. However, this depends on which country you are from and where you are going, as some countries have agreements that allow entrance even without it.

A tourist visa may take different forms: it can be a paper document, although it most often comes as a simple stamp in your passport. Some countries require you to arrange your visa before arriving in the country, while others issue it to you once you land at the airport.

A tourist visa indicates how long you are allowed to stay in the country. It also defines which activities you are allowed to participate in or not while there, such as working and studying.

Other Types of Visas

A tourist visa is the most common and most acquired type of visa. It is usually only valid for a short period of time, commonly ranging from a few weeks to a couple of months.

This is what you will need if you are just planning to visit the country. A tourist visa however doesn’t allow you to work and study while you are in a particular country.

Others types of visas include student visas, business visas, media visas, fiancé visas, and many others depending on the place you’re travelling to.

Resident visas are also available for those who want to live in a particular country. You will normally need a valid reason to obtain this type of visa, as they tend to be the most difficult to get.

What You Need to Apply for a Tourist Visa

As mentioned above, tourist visa requirements vary with your nationality and your destination, as well as where you make your application. You should always check the instructions application to your specific situation on the relevant embassy or consulate website.

Having said that, there are some general requirements and common documents that are needed for most tourist visa applications.

These include:

  • Passport valid for at least six (6) months beyond the intended period of stay
  • Duly filled out visa application forms
  • Confirmed round-trip tickets
  • Cover letter for tourist visa or letter to the consulate

Top tip: travel insurance for your visa application

Most tourist visa applications require you to show proof of travel insurance coverage for the duration of your trip. We use and recommend SafetyWing as our preferred travel medical insurance provider. It’s the most flexible and affordable we’ve found, starting at just $1. 32 per day. They can also provide a visa letter to support your application. If you’re looking for more comprehensive coverage, World Nomads is also a reliable and very popular alternative among global travelers.

Note: In our experience and to the best of our knowledge, these two travel insurance options fulfill the requirements for most tourist visa applications. However, please make sure to check that they meet the specific criteria applicable to your individual case.

Sample Cover Letter for Tourist Visa Application

Via rappler.com

The cover letter or letter to the consulate is necessary for tourist visas that require interviews. This letter needs to explain why you want to visit the country and where you will be staying in the country. It must also outline the intended dates and duration of your stay.

Moreover, this letter is your way to tell the embassy if you are getting a sponsorship from a friend, parents, or a romantic partner who are currently based in that country. It’s important to take your time to write your cover letter, although you should also make sure to keep it to-the-point and not too long.

If the trip is going to be sponsored by someone else, make sure to include the following details in the cover letter for your tourist visa application:

  • The name of the person who is going to sponsor your trip
  • The job or source of income of the person who is going to sponsor you
  • ​Your proof or relationship (normally pictures)
  • Proof of financial capability of your sponsor
  • The expenses your sponsor will cover

Does travel insurance cover car rental?

January 17, 2022

Travel insurance is essential when traveling to other countries. Insurance coverage can protect you from certain financial risks or losses that may occur during your travels.

However, most people, especially those who want to go to Greece for a holiday or business trip, are not sure if travel insurance covers car rental. Essentially, travel insurance ensures that the traveler does not have to pay accident repair costs or other charges that the rental company may charge.

Please note that we discuss problems and cases that are not covered by the normal insurance offered by car rental agencies.

However, if you are interested in an all-inclusive insurance package, then we have it! Find out about our insurance policy here.

Cases that travel insurance covers when renting a car

Your travel insurance issued for a trip to Greece will cover the cost of repairing a rental car that may occur in the event of a traffic accident, vandalism, natural disasters and fire.

Travel insurance basically covers everything that is not under your control when you rent a car. In addition, travel insurance covers the theft of a rental car.

It’s important to remember that your rental car’s collision insurance will compensate you for the cost of repairs if someone breaks into it. However, this insurance does not cover your personal belongings in the car.

Damage not covered by insurance

It is important to note that collision damage insurance does not cover damage to certain vehicle parts. The coverage policy excludes the undercarriage, roof and windshield. If, unfortunately, the windshield is damaged in an accident, you will have to pay the entire bill for the repair of the rental car yourself.

If you violate Greek law or the terms of your car rental agreement, you will have to take care of paying the total cost of damage if, for example, the car is damaged by speeding. Travel insurance for rentals will not cover such damage. Usually, the car rental agreement does not mention pre-existing damage to the vehicle. Therefore, it is very important to fix them upon receipt of the car.

Third party liability and theft insurance

Third party liability insurance is required by Greek law to protect you from damage to property, injury or injury to others on the road. Most rental agreements include insurance against theft of the rental car. In addition, a franchise is provided. You need to follow the law and the lease agreement.

Are there exclusions for third party liability insurance?

While car rental travel insurance can be a valuable addition to your travel insurance package, not all rental agencies in Greece will accept it as valid insurance. This additional option of your travel insurance will have no effect if your chosen car rental company requires you to buy their insurance.

In some circumstances, your insurance will not work. For example, if you were under the influence of alcohol or drugs at the time of the accident. Also, if you caused damage to the rented vehicle as a result of illegal actions.

Travel insurance does not cover other types of vehicles such as SUVs and motorcycles. If you are planning to rent a certain type of car in Greece, please read the terms and conditions of the insurance plan before booking in order to prevent any potential claims issues.

Does the rental car travel insurance cover the deductible?

Most travel insurance policies in Greece cover the deductible in the event of theft or if the cost of repairing a rental car in an accident exceeds this amount. However, the insurance company may set a limit on this payment, which will depend on the level of insurance you choose.

In addition, if you are medically unable to drive, some insurers may cover the cost of transporting your car to the nearest rental location. In these situations, a written correspondence with your referring physician is usually required. The conditions for coverage of insurance policies differ from one another.

When filing a claim with your insurance company, please be aware that you must pay the deductible amount of your car rental company. You will then submit an application and supporting documentation and the insurer will reimburse you after it has been assessed. For some, this may seem inconvenient, but the possible savings and added peace of mind are always worth the effort.

Protecting your risks

Your insurance company may offer you a Super Damage Insurance option that reduces your own risk to a minimum or to zero. Prices and conditions vary, so double check what you get for your money.

Before picking up the rental car, you can also purchase this insurance option yourself from the rental company. It’s often cheaper and can cover windshield, tire, roof and chassis damage.

However, if you purchase a separate policy, you will be responsible for paying the deductible to the car rental company and then claiming it back from the insurer.

EXTREME

Tents Series “ Extreme ” (Extreme), suitable for most natural and weather conditions, due to its design features and parameters. This series is designed not only for expeditions and hiking, but is designed to satisfy the requirements of any traveler who values ​​high quality and modern materials. Our tents are framed for quick and easy set up, even in adverse weather conditions such as strong winds or rain. The high water resistance characteristics of the awning will provide you with a comfortable sleep, regardless of whether it is dry, rainy or snowing. Tents of the Extreme series are equipped with snow and windproof skirts, which is ideal for use in winter. They have been tested in the harshest conditions of our planet – from the Himalayas and the windy Andes, to the endless sands of the North African Sahara. And yet, you will surely appreciate their advantages even in an ordinary campground.

A series of lightweight tents “ Extreme Light ” (Lightweight) combines all the advanced technologies of the “Extreme” series and an excellent combination of price and quality of the “Outdoor” series. Unlike extreme tents, these tents have a standard internal construction of duralumin tubes, and do not have a snow skirt, which helps to reduce the weight of the tent as a whole. Tents of this series, in addition to the usual camping, can be used for climbing, trekking and cycling, which leads to high quality and a slightly higher cost compared to the “Outdoor” series. In addition, this series has subsection Ultralight (Ultra light) – these are specific tents made using a special fabric and coating. Instead of the usual polyurethane, a silicone coating is used here, which allows you to make these models as light as possible.


TOURIST

Tents from the “ Outdoor ” series (Tourism) – the most versatile category. They are designed primarily for traditional camping, weekend getaways and water travel. These tents will be equally comfortable in campsites and in the wild, without fear of any vagaries of the weather, whether it be spring, summer or autumn.


CAMPING

There is only one word to describe the Family (Camping) tents – space! There is always enough space for the whole family or a large group of friends – whether it is a stationary camp or a trip. In developing these tents, we tried to pay attention not only to size, but also to the ease of assembly and simplicity of design, for maximum convenience for the whole family.

“Fisherman’s luxury”, this is the most accurate definition of our special offer – the series “ Fish “(Fishing). These tents have been designed with a focus on minimal weight, quick and easy set up, rain protection and more.



BEARING STRUCTURE

External duralumin frame allows you to quickly set up the tent even in the most difficult weather conditions, such as heavy rain or wet snow, while protecting the inner tent from getting wet, plus allows you to start fixing the tent even during the installation process . High wind resistance and reliability is ensured by the use of Yunnan brand arcs (Korea) – one of the leading manufacturers of top-class frames.


INNER TENT

Made of breathable 190T nylon and mosquito net.


VENTILATION

Husky tents are equipped with a system that provides efficient and controlled ventilation. Mosquito net inserts on the inner tent ensure that accumulated water vapor escapes from it and a minimum of condensate, which in a standard tent often begins to cause serious inconvenience, falling on walls, sleeping bags, creating an atmosphere of dampness and discomfort. In Husky tents, thanks to this system, the overwhelming mass of condensate falls on the walls of the outer tent and flows down safely without causing inconvenience. Ventilation windows allow you to adjust the level of access to fresh air from outside. Provides great ventilation when it’s hot and closes tightly to keep the warmth inside the tent when it’s cold.


ANCHORING THE TENT

Anchoring with special pins ensures maximum quality of installation and stability of the tent in the most adverse weather conditions. This design allows you to set up the tent practically without the use of pegs, while between the wall of the outer tent, along which accumulated condensate usually flows, and the inner tent, there is always a sufficient gap to prevent the inner walls from getting wet, even in strong winds. All this ensures ease of installation and comfortable rest even in the most severe weather and natural conditions.


External awning

used fabrics with polyurethane coating provides strength and water resistance of the thread


Shelf for trifles

will allow you to store a number of accessories necessary in the campaign

Ripstop fabric

81 It has a high level of resistance to damage, due to the fact that the fabric itself is stitched throughout the entire structure with a thicker and more durable thread, which gives a characteristic “pattern” of a small cell.


TAPED SEAMS

Guaranteed to prevent moisture from seeping through the seams, keeping the inside of the tent dry and comfortable even in the heaviest rain.


DOUBLE ZIPPER

Provides easy zippering/unzipping in any direction.


SNOW AND WIND SKIRT

An indispensable item for difficult weather conditions. It will prevent water from flowing under the awning in the rain and blowing snow into a blizzard, additionally retain heat in cold weather, and in the heat it can be quickly removed simply by tucking it up and fastening it with special buttons. In addition, it can be used as an additional element for securing the tent – there are loops for pegs around the entire perimeter of the skirt, or you can simply press it down by covering it with stones or snow around the perimeter.


COMPRESSION BAG

Equipped with two compression straps, it allows you to quickly fold, pack and compress the tent, thereby minimizing its bulk for easy portability.


REPAIR KIT

Almost every Husky tent comes with a factory repair kit that allows you to quickly fix the problems that have arisen – these are pieces of each fabric used in the tent, glue with a brush, dural tube for repairing the arches, as well as elements of plastic fittings.


UV PROTECTION

All Extreme Series are made of fabrics with UV protection, which is especially important when used in the mountains dries. Ripstop (RIPSTOP) is such a technology when synthetic fibers, thick and durable, permeate the entire material with a network. The material with ripstop technology is resistant to mechanical damage, and its structure prevents further spread of the gap if it does occur.


190T Nylon (inner tent)

100% nylon. The material is really soft, elastic, but at the same time durable. The fabric has excellent characteristics, primarily such as light weight and breathability.


Mosquito net (inner tent)

Breathable material that provides excellent ventilation and insect protection. Despite its softness and lightness, this material remains quite durable.


Polyethylene Laminated (floor)

A very durable material used for flooring in large tents. Such a floor is resistant to damage and has a high level of water resistance.


109T Polyester (floor)

Polyester fabric. This material is light and durable and does not allow moisture to pass through, and this is very important for creating high-quality tents.


Duralumin poles (frame)

Duralumin is one of the most common tent frame materials. This is a durable and lightweight material, mainly used in the creation of expeditionary or extra durable tents.


Durawrap (frame)

Durawrap are reinforced fiberglass wires tightly covered with a special polyester film, which significantly increases the life expectancy, strength and elasticity of such wires. In addition, if such an arc is broken, then the cracks will not go along the entire length of the arc, everything will be limited exclusively to the break point (in fact, the material in this aspect behaves like duralumin).


Polyurethane (coated)

The most common type of covering used in the construction of tents. Information about the nature of the coating lies in the height of the water column that such a coating can hold, thus determining the water resistance of the awning.


Silicone (coated)

Excellent coating that provides a high level of moisture protection while being lighter than polyurethane. The silicone coated tent is especially suitable for low temperature conditions.

    Basamos el nivel de comodidad de la humedad en el punto de rocío, ya que éste determina si el sudor se evaporará de la piel enfriando así el cuerpo. Cuando los puntos de rocío son más bajos se siente más seco y cuando son altos se siente más húmedo. A diferencia de la temperatura, que generalmente varía considerablemente entre la noche y el día, el punto de rocío tiende a cambiar más lentamente, así es que aunque la temperatura baje en la noche, en un día húmedo generalmente la noche es húmeda.

    En Tenerife la humedad percibida varía considerablemente.

    El período más húmedo del año dura 4,5 meses, del 23 de junio al 7 de noviembre, y durante ese tiempo el nivel de comodidad es bochornoso, opresivo o insoportable por lo menos durante el 11 % del tiempo. El mes con más días bochornosos en Tenerife es septiembre, con 12,5 días bochornosos o peor.

    El mes con menos días bochornosos en Tenerife es febrero, con 0,1 días bochornosos o peor.

    La puntuación de playa/piscina (área rellena) y sus componentes: la puntuación de temperatura (línea roja), la puntuación de cobertura de nubes (línea azul) y la puntuación de precipitación (línea verde).

    Metodología

    Para cada hora entre 8:00 y 21:00 del día en el período de análisis (1980 a 2016), se calculan las puntuaciones independientes de temperatura percibida, nubosidad y precipitación total. Esas puntuaciones se combinan en una sola puntuación compuesta por hora, que luego se agregan por día y se promedian todos los años del periodo de análisis y se suavizan.

    Nuestra puntuación de nubosidad es 10 cuando el cielo está despejado y baja linealmente a 9 cuando el cielo está mayormente despejado y a 1 cuando el cielo está totalmente nublado.

    Nuestra puntuación de precipitación, que se basa en la precipitación de tres horas centrada en la hora en cuestión, es 10 si no hay precipitación y baja linealmente a 9 si hay vestigios de precipitación y a 0 si hay 1 milímetro o más de precipitación.

    Nuestra puntuación de turismo es 0 si las temperaturas percibidas son inferiores a 10 °C, sube linealmente a 9 si son 18 °C, a 10 si son 24 °C y baja linealmente a 9 si son 27 °C y a 1 si son superiores 32 °C o superiores.

    Nuestra puntuación de playa/piscina es 0 si las temperaturas percibidas son inferiores a 18 °C, aumenta linealmente a 9 si son 24 °C, a 10 si son 28 °C,
    y baja linealmente a 9 si son 32 °C y a 1 si son 38 °C o superiores.

    Las definiciones del periodo de cultivo varían en todo el mundo, pero para fines de este informe, lo definimos con el periodo continuo más largo de temperaturas sin heladas (≥ 0 °C) del año (el año calendario en el hemisferio norte o del 1 de julio al 30 de junio en el hemisferio sur).

    Las temperaturas en Tenerife son lo suficientemente cálidas todo el año por lo que no tiene sentido hablar del periodo de cultivo en estos términos. No obstante, la siguiente tabla se incluye como ilustración de la distribución de temperaturas durante el año.

    Introducción


    En Tenerife, la mayor de las Islas Canarias, el clima es subtropical oceánico en las costas, es decir, muy templado y soleado durante la mayor parte del año, con poca lluvia concentrada en el período de octubre a marzo. En las zonas del interior, el clima varía según la altitud y la exposición: las pendientes orientadas al noreste reciben una buena cantidad de lluvia y son verdes, mientras que en el resto de la isla las precipitaciones son escasas, generalmente por debajo de 250 milímetros por año en las costas, pero a menudo incluso por debajo de 150 mm, y esto explica la aridez de los paisajes a lo largo de las costas y de las laderas meridionales.

    Los vientos predominantes, los vientos alisios del noreste, hacen que la ladera septentrional sea más húmeda, mientras que el calor en las costas durante el verano es más templado; los vientos alisios soplan más intensamente en las horas centrales del día y por la tarde, a menudo de forma moderada, o incluso bastante fuerte.

    A nivel del mar, la zona más expuesta al viento es la costa norte, pero también las zonas más expuestas de las costas este y sur (ver Punta de Abona, El Médano). La zona menos ventosa es la costa con orientación suroeste (ver Playa San Juan, Costa Adeje, Playa de Los Cristianos, Playa de las Américas), gracias a las montañas que la protegen de los vientos del noreste, como se puede apreciar en la siguiente imagen.

    Las temperaturas generalmente tienden a permanecer alrededor de la media, sin embargo, de diciembre a marzo, puede haber algunos días frescos, con máximas por debajo de los 20 °C. En los días más fríos del año, que suelen ocurrir en febrero, la temperatura suele bajar a 10/11 °C por la noche, mientras que la máxima se mantiene alrededor de 17/18 °C.

    Por otro lado, los días de calima, caracterizados por un calor anómalo y un viento débil, en los que predomina el aire caliente de origen africano, son relativamente raros (aunque en los últimos años se han vuelto más frecuentes), y son más frecuentes en primavera y verano: en la práctica, estos son los únicos días en los que se superan los 30 grados y el calor es desagradable. La calima también se siente en las laderas, incluso más a menudo que en la llanura, porque el aire cálido es ligero y tiende a elevarse, mientras que las costas pueden permanecer mitigadas por el frescor que proviene del mar. Los récords de calor en las costas son 34/35 °C en marzo, abril y noviembre, 36/37 °C en mayo, junio y octubre, y 42/44 °C en julio, agosto y septiembre.

    Las costas


    Santa Cruz

    En la ciudad principal, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, las temperaturas diurnas son muy templadas en invierno, con temperaturas máximas de alrededor de 21 grados en enero y febrero, y calurosas en verano, con temperaturas máximas de 28/29 grados de julio a septiembre.

    Aquí están las temperaturas medias.

    La tendencia de las lluvias es de tipo mediterráneo, lo que significa que la mayor parte de las lluvias cae de octubre a marzo, porque ese es el período en el que puede llegar a Canarias alguna perturbación del Atlántico; en verano, en la práctica, nunca llueve. La cantidad total de lluvia que cae en Santa Cruz es sin embargo modesta: solo 220 milímetros por año, por lo que estamos a un nivel semidesértico. Aquí está la precipitación media.

    Costa meridional

    En la costa meridional encontramos el otro aeropuerto de la isla, Tenerife Sur, que sirve a los complejos turísticos de la costa suroeste. Aquí las temperaturas son similares a las de Santa Cruz y a las del resto de las costas canarias, incluso si durante las olas de calor la temperatura alcanza valores muy altos.

    Aquí están las temperaturas medias.

    La insolación en Tenerife es muy buena todo el año, sin embargo, además de las perturbaciones que pueden pasar en el período de octubre a marzo, en el verano pueden pasar bancos de nubes que se forman en el Atlántico, mientras que en la costa septentrional y, sobre todo, en las laderas de las montañas orientadas hacia el norte, se pueden formar nubes y niebla locales. La costa meridional es por lo tanto la más soleada.

    Aquí está el promedio de horas de sol al día en Tenerife Sur.

    En la costa norte (ver Garachico, Puerto de la Cruz), las temperaturas son 1-2 grados más bajas que en las otras costas. Además, llueve con más frecuencia, el paisaje es bastante verde incluso en la costa, y a menudo el mar está agitado.

    Temperatura del mar


    El mar en Tenerife es bastante frío en invierno, aunque no es prohibitivo para bañarse, y permanece bastante fresco en verano, dado que la isla está situada en una latitud baja, casi en el Trópico, pero en esta parte del océano Atlántico fluye una corriente fría. Los que viven en la isla no dejan de bañarse, incluso en invierno, y se han acostumbrado a ello, que es lo que hacen también los turistas nórdicos o los que no temen el frío. Sin embargo, la temperatura del mar oscila entre 19 grados en febrero-marzo y 23/24 °C de agosto a octubre, cuando puede considerarse lo suficientemente cálido para nadar. Aquí está la temperatura del mar.

    Las zonas del interior


    Santa Cruz tiene vista al mar, pero más hacia el interior hay barrios encaramados en las laderas, y subiendo la carretera a San Cristóbal de La Laguna, se puede experimentar un clima progresivamente más fresco y más húmedo.

    La Laguna

    A menudo, buscando los datos meteorológicos de Tenerife, se encuentran los del aeropuerto de La Laguna, que es el aeropuerto de referencia de la parte septentrional de la isla (de hecho se llama Tenerife Norte, anteriormente Los Rodeos), y que a veces viene presentado genéricamente como “Tenerife”, pero que, al encontrarse a una altitud de 600 metros, tiene temperaturas decididamente más bajas: la máxima en invierno es de alrededor de 16/17 grados en promedio, y en verano se detiene a 25/26 °C.

    A pesar del clima fresco, con el viento de África la temperatura puede alcanzar o superar los 37 °C de mayo a septiembre.

    Aquí están las temperaturas medias.

    Al estar en la ladera norte, La Laguna es aún más húmeda y lluviosa: caen 515 milímetros de lluvia al año, con un máximo de noviembre a enero, cuando caen alrededor de 80 mm por mes, distribuidos en 8/9 días por mes, pero también en marzo y octubre llueve durante 6/7 días al mes: es un microclima fresco y húmedo, típico de la vertiente norte de Canarias. En verano también aquí llueve poco, aunque a menudo se forma niebla. Aquí está la precipitación media.

    Al sur de La Laguna, las laderas del norte de la isla de Tenerife por encima de los 1. 000 metros son aún más húmedas y están cubiertas de bosques. En las zonas más húmedas, las precipitaciones alcanzan los 1.000 mm por año. Las áreas verdes también se encuentran en el municipio de La Orotava, en la vertiente norte del Teide, entre 1.000 y 1.800 metros, donde los vientos alisios se sienten más. Por encima de esta altitud, por otra parte, las precipitaciones se vuelven más escasas y la vegetación se vuelve más rala.

    Teide

    El observatorio del Teide de Izaña se encuentra a 2.400 metros: a esta altura, el invierno es frío, por lo que las temperaturas promedio de diciembre a febrero son de alrededor de 4/5 grados; ya a esta altura a veces puede nevar. El verano es bastante templado, con temperaturas que no suelen ser muy altas, pero con un sol de montaña (casi) tropical que se siente. A diferencia de las costas, aquí ya en septiembre la temperatura comienza a disminuir.

    Aquí están las temperaturas medias.

    A mayores altitudes hace aún más frío, y hay una árida vegetación de montaña, así como paisajes lunares, rocosos y desérticos. El Teide es un volcán de 3.718 metros de altura (es la montaña más alta de toda España). Hay un teleférico, el Teleférico del Teide, que lleva hasta 3.550 metros de altura: para llegar allí hay que reservar con antelación.

    Cuándo ir

    Para el sol y el mar, el mejor período va de mayo a mediados de octubre. En el primer período (mayo-junio), la temperatura del aire es un poco más baja y el mar está un poco más frío, pero los días son un poco más largos. En Canarias, en verano, los días son más cortos que en Europa (mientras que en invierno son más largos), pero debido a la zona horaria adoptada, el sol de todos modos se pone bastante tarde.

    Para visitar las ciudades y hacer excursiones en las zonas del interior, se pueden elegir abril, mayo y la primera quincena de octubre.

    En invierno, se apreciarán las temperaturas templadas y, a menudo, se podrá tomar el sol, aunque no se pueden excluir algunos días de mal tiempo. Si lo desea, puede combinar una excursión en el Teide, tal vez en busca de nieve, con una tarde en la playa.

    Qué llevar en la maleta

    En invierno: ropa ligera para el día, suéter y chaqueta para la noche, posiblemente un impermeable o un paraguas. Para escalar el Teide, plumífero, gorro, guantes, zapatos de senderismo.

    En verano: ropa de verano, pero también un pañuelo para el viento, una sudadera ligera, una chaqueta ligera para la noche y para las tardes ventosas; zapatos cómodos para las excursiones. Para escalar el Teide, zapatos de trekking, sudadera y chaqueta para las altitudes más altas.

    Playas de arena negra

    Cmo es el clima de Tenerife?

    Esta es una pregunta un poco trampa cuando nos referimos a las Islas Afortunadas.

    En realidad, con una temperatura media anual de 20C, se puede decir que hace buen tiempo en toda la isla casi todo el ao, sobre todo si lo comparamos con la pennsula u otros lugares de Europa.

    Pero s que tienes que saber que el clima puede ser muy diferente en las zonas costeras, en el interior y sobre todo muy variable de Norte a Sur.

    El clima de Tenerife es subtropical ocenico en las zonas costeras, vaya, que tendrs casi siempre sol, poca lluvia y temperaturas templadas, sobre todo si vas ms hacia el sur. Las zonas interiores son ms verdes y hmedas, y a medida que vas hacia el norte hay ms lluvia y ms incidencia de los vientos alisios.

    As que, en el Sur de la isla acostumbra a hacer siempre mejor tiempo, con unos 18C de mnima hasta 24C de mxima, y justamente por su clima, sol casi siempre asegurado y por sus playas de arena blanca, que el sur es una zona mucho ms turstica. Tiene algunas playas y calas muy bonitas que vale la pena visitar, pero que sepas que es una parte de la isla a menudo excesivamente explotada y masificada.

    La zona norte de Tenerife tiene tambin un clima agradable durante prcticamente todo el ao, con temperaturas anuales de entre 13C y 23C de media, pero, sopla ms el viento, est mucho ms repleta de vegetacin y es ms montaosa. All donde mires, siempre encontrars el verde caracterstico de su exuberante naturaleza.

    Cundo empieza el calor en Tenerife?

    Aunque siempre parece que la temperatura en la isla vara muy poco, no es del todo as.

    El verano es la poca ms calurosa del ao en cualquier parte de la isla, con 23C de media y mximas que pueden pasar de 30C, incluso excepcionalmente llegar a los 40C en Agosto que es el mes ms caluroso.

    La zona sur de la isla y Santa Cruz de Tenerife tienen temperaturas ms altas, ms agradables si tienes la suerte que sopla el viento del norte y eso s, de agua ms bien poca, porque las lluvias son prcticamente nulas durante el verano.

    El norte con un verano ms suave tiene temperaturas de 22 a 25C y de nuevo en Agosto suben. Eso s, la ventaja del norte de Tenerife es que tiene noches fresquitas con mnimas de unos 15C. Es como un sueo para dormir la mar de bien, sobre todo si vienes de otros sitios donde el verano te sofoca.

    Cundo hace fro en Tenerife?

    La verdad es que un invierno fro como el que entendemos en la mayor parte de Europa, no existe en Tenerife. Eso s, puede ser ms lluvioso en general que el resto del ao, sobre todo en el mes de Diciembre, pero nada lo suficientemente grave como para necesitar ni abrigos ni chubasqueros.

    Las temperaturas se mantienen suaves, como en una eterna primavera. Piensa que en los meses centrales del invierno las temperaturas medias estn entre los 15C de mnimas y los 20C de mximas, sobre todo en la parte sur.

    En el norte, al ser ms lluvioso pueden ser ms bajas, pero las temperaturas con una mnima de 15C de media, no llegan nunca a ser demasiado fras, de hecho ya las quisiramos en otros sitios…. Vaya, que se trata de un invierno muy suave y estable, en el que vayas al norte o al sur, no puedes olvidar el baador, porque vas a usarlo.

    Hay una estacin media en Tenerife?

    Pues s, una no, ms bien dos 🙂

    Primavera y otoo. No es muy distinto a lo que ocurre en la mayora de sitios, pero aqu en Tenerife donde la palabra que caracteriza la meteorologa de la isla es estabilidad, estas son las estaciones donde ni hace tanto calor, como en verano, ni hay tantas posibilidades de lluvia, como en invierno.

    Son los tpicos meses de transicin. Por lo general, se puede decir, que hay siempre temperaturas suaves que pueden oscilar entre los 22C y los 26C de mxima y unas mnimas de noche de 15 a 19C.
    Lo que diferencia primavera de otoo, sera el tema de las lluvias. En primavera no son muy abundantes, es una estacin ms bien seca a excepcin de marzo, que suele haber ms precipitaciones. En otoo llueve ms, sobre todo en la parte norte, donde ya de por s siempre pasa y suele hacer ms fresquito, la cercana del Teide tambin influye y el viento suele soplar con ms fuerza.

    Imágenes actuales de satélite y lluvia para Tenerife, España

    El marcador del lugar se coloca en Tenerife. [Más]

    La imagen de satélite en tiempo real se aprovecha de la combinación de bandas de la luz visible y de la luz infrarroja. Cómo se pueden detectar cambios de temperaturas a través de la banda infrarrojo, la imagen no aparece oscura de noche. No obstante, la niebla y las nubes bajas son apenas visibles en las imágenes de infrarrojo ya que las diferencias de temperaturas entre el suelo y la niebla son muy pequeñas, por eso, son casi invisibles durante la noche. Las imágenes de satélite del Meteosat (Europa) son actualizados en tiempo real cada 5 minutos. Las imágenes del GOES-16/GOES-17 (América del Norte y América del Sur) y Himawari (Asia) son actualizadas cada 10 minutos.

    La precipitación se estima a partir de radares y satélites. Las estimaciones de precipitación con los satélites son menos precisas de noche que durante el día. Las cruces naranjas identifican lugares donde se detectaron relámpagos (en Europa).

    Contraste Norte-Sur

    El contraste entre la mayor pluviosidad existente en el norte de la isla, con altas tasas de humedad, y el mayor número de horas de sol que se disfruta en la zona más meridional de Tenerife, tiene como resultado la existencia de diferentes paisajes, muchos contrapuestos, pero todos de gran belleza.

    Dentro de los núcleos urbanos, es destacable también el contraste existente entre las dos grandes poblaciones de la isla, teniendo Santa Cruz de Tenerife un clima cálido durante todos las estaciones del año, y San Cristóbal de la Laguna uno más fresco y con un mayor número de precipitaciones al año, estando ambas ciudades separadas por apenas 10 kilómetros.

    Microclimas en Tenerife

    Los numerosos microclimas existentes en la isla de Tenerife favorece su rica biodiversidad, con una flora muy variada en diferentes puntos de la ínsula.

    En el norte hay que distinguir entre la zona costera, en la que la influencia de los vientos alisios y el mar hace que la temperatura media oscile entre los 19 y los 23 grados. En altitudes de entre 600 y 1500 m aumenta el frío y la humedad, favoreciendo el cultivo de papas y cereales. A mayor altitud aumenta la sequedad del aire y pueden producirse nevadas en la estación invernal, con grandes contrastes de temperatura entre la noche y el día. Por encima de los 2700 metros, en las Cañadas del Teide, se puede encontrar una flora exclusivamente autóctona, fruto del clima de la zona.

    El clima en el sur de la isla presenta una menor complejidad, caracterizándose por una calidez y luminosidad que favorece el turismo de sol y playa.

    Los alisios y el mar de nubes

    La climatología tinerfeña está muy influenciada por la calidez del cercano trópico de Cáncer, las corrientes oceánicas frías, la orografía isleña y los vientos alisios.

    Aunque, por su situación cercana a África, a las islas Canarias les correspondería tener un clima seco, la parte de la isla que presenta una exposición a los vientos alisios está caracterizada por una mayor humedad y una pluviosidad bastante frecuente en zonas de mediana y alta elevación.

    El conocido y espectacular mar de nubes que se aprecia desde las cumbres de Tenerife son masas nubosas estancadas entre las montañas y que llegan por el norte de la isla. Son estas montañas las que sirven de protección para la zona meridional y las que provoca esa eterna primavera que caracteriza a la costa sur.

    El contraste climatológico y paisajístico en Tenerife se acentúa en invierno, compaginando zonas nevadas y zonas soleadas a pocas distancias. Uno de los espectáculos visuales más impresionantes se da en el Parque Nacional del Teide, donde las tonalidades negras y marrones de su suelo volcánico se mezclan con el blanco de la nieve y el azul celeste, creando lo que podría llamarse una sinfonía de colores

    +(34) [email protected]

    Canary Islands, Spain

    Everything for independent rest!

    1. Cities of Tenerife
    2. El Médano

    Wind, sandy beaches and Canarian flavor

    El Médano is a small town in the south of Tenerife (Canary Islands, Spain). It is located seven kilometers from the southern airport, on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean in the municipality of Granadilla de Abona (Spanish: Granadilla de Abona). It is a tourist center. Due to the frequent winds, the coastline of Montaña Roja Beach has become a center of attraction for lovers of water sports: surfing, kitesurfing and windsurfing, and even kites. The season lasts here all year round.

    The name El Medano in Spanish means dunes or sandbar.

    The town is divided into 5 residential areas: El Médano, El Cabezo, Arenas del Mar, Ensenada Pelada and El Topo. The total coastline from Red Mountain (Spanish: Montana Roja) to Ensenada Pelada is about 3 kilometers. Along the embankment there is a walking promenade, along which there are bars and small restaurants with a variety of meat and fish dishes.

    The city has all the infrastructure, including: post office, banks, tourist information center, hotels, children’s corners, football field, skateboard area, parish church, pharmacies, taxis, surf schools, cultural beaches and small shops. Five kilometers away, at the entrance to the city of San Isidro, there is a medical center, next to it are large grocery supermarkets Mercadona and Lidl.

    Near the TF-1 motorway, the “Mercado del Agricultor” market opens on Saturdays and Sundays, always stocked with fresh products from local farmers. Opening hours from 8:00 to 14:00. During the season, you can buy fresh fruits: grapes, apples, pears, oranges, figs, mangoes and others; from vegetables: greens (parsley, dill, cilantro, spinach, onion), tomatoes, red and green peppers, potatoes. There is a meat department, fish, seafood, usually not much that is caught. Also always in the presence of goat cheese and sweet pastries. See map for location.

    Working hours: Saturday and Sunday from 07:00 to 14:00
    How to get there!

    In the city center, the main square often hosts celebrations and concerts, especially during the summer months. Every year since 1993, the cultural festival “San Sofe” begins, in which new talents, samples of folk songs, etc. take part.

    The local population is mainly engaged in retail trade, service work, small hotel business and fishing.

    Climate El Medano

    In general, the El Medano area has high atmospheric humidity with little rainfall. It is noteworthy that due to the strong intensity of the sun, a strong evaporation of moisture occurs in the coastal zone, 10 times more than the amount of precipitation. The average annual temperature is around 21°C; the annual rainfall is approximately 83 mm, with an average of about 21 rainy days and a relative humidity of 65%.

    As previously mentioned, the average temperature is 21.3°C and its average range is 6.6ºC. The coldest months are January and February with temperatures above 15°C, while the hottest months are August and September, with over 28°C.

    A kilometer from the town of El Médano is the Casa Caballo stable. Here adults and children can get involved in horseback riding for little money. Read more: Horse riding in Tenerife

    At the resort you can rent a bike and take a trip along the coast. There are many hiking trails and roads in the area where you can ride bicycles. Mostly gravel roads. Do not forget about precautions, such as a helmet on your head, because when a person falls from a bicycle, he flies head first, exposing his arms and elbows, softening the blow. The roads are not smooth, with small stones, so you should be extremely careful.

    For those who like to explore the coastal area on foot, there is a good choice to climb the “Red Mountain” (Spanish: Montana Roja). It offers extraordinary views that give an idea of ​​the area and its relief. The runway of the South Airport is clearly visible, from which planes constantly take off and land, where you become a witness to what is happening.

    On the other side of the town, three kilometers away, is Montaña Pelada (Spanish Montaña Pelada), translated as “Bald Mountain”. This is a natural monument with a territory that is under protection. It is a volcanic formation with a huge crater, which is about one kilometer in diameter. In the past, a volcano ejected lava into the Atlantic Ocean, forming large clouds of smoke from evaporating water.

    Hotels El Médano

    In the area of ​​three kilometers from the resort, there is a small selection of hotels, because of this, prices can be slightly higher in the off-season, in contrast to the large resorts of Las Americas and Costa Adeje, where there are always a huge number of hotels put up their offers . On the coast, in the immediate vicinity of El Medano, there are only three hotels built:0004 A little more than five kilometers, in the city of San Isidro, near the TF-1 highway and bus stops, there are hotels

    The beaches of El Médano

    Within one kilometer you can choose from 6 beaches, the coastline of which is mostly gentle and long. Some of them are cultural and equipped with everything necessary for comfortable sunbathing and relaxation, these are sunbeds, umbrellas and a fresh water shower. Others only have sand and small gravel, with the least workload.

    A characteristic feature of the resort of El Médano is that, as already mentioned above, east winds blow here. At times, it is even impossible to be on the beaches due to sand getting into the eyes and nose, which causes severe discomfort. In this case, you should retire to the nearest resorts of Los Cristianos, Playa de Las Americas and Costa Adeje, where everything is usually calm. If the weather is good, then these are some of the best beaches on the island. It is not for nothing that El Médano Beach has been awarded the Blue Flag for many years. On weekends and holidays, this is one of the most favorite places for the Canarians.

    One and a half kilometers from the town, behind the Red Mountain is the naturist or nudist beach of La Tejita. It is not at all difficult to reach it on foot from El Medano, admiring the local volcanic beauties encountered on the way.

    Red Mountain

    ROCHA ( SP. Montaña Roja – Rus. three-kilometer coastal zone. Sandy loamy area with a unique habitat, specific species, geological formation or natural-ecological processes of special scientific and educational interest. Red Mountain is a geomorphological cone, with a height of 171 m above sea level, formed relatively recently from volcanic lava eruptions, creating unique landscapes and sandy beaches called dunes.

    There are about 136 plant species in its protected area, some of which are endangered. Of the fauna in the coastal area on shallows and lagoons, the time of wintering and migration of birds is of particular importance. At this moment you can see: dunlin, plover, godwit, curlews and herbalist. At a distance from the coast in more arid places of the reserve, species appear: desert shrike, hoopoe, desert bullfinch and gray little lark.


    Cave of Santo Ermano Pedro

    Sacred place, cave (Spanish: Cueva de Santo Hermano Pedro), which is dedicated to the first saint in the Canary Islands, Pedro de San José Betancur (Spanish: Pedro de San José Betancur), born March 21, 1626. Located on the territory of the South Airport and is her private property. Between the management of the air harbor and the Bishop of Tenerife there is an agreement that allows the use of the cave for the faithful people.

    Considered one of the important pilgrimage points in the Canary Islands. Every year the number of visitors grows and averages about 300,000 people.

    Pedro de San José’s cave was a shelter when he and his flock rested and gained strength during the winter months, hiding from the winds, on their way to the village of Vilaflor. Inside you will find a wooden image of the Saint himself, there is a section for votive offerings of the faithful. Outside is a stone-hewn altar where masses are celebrated. The altar consists of a Eucharistic table and a stone cross, over which the phrase “The man who was merciful” extends, next to it is an pulpit and a pedestal for a wooden image of the Saint.

    In the immediate vicinity of the cave there is a small arboretum in which the “Esquisúchil” tree from Guatemala grows, with healing properties, previously used by Saints to treat people.

    Every year in the month of April, a pilgrimage is carried out, from the sanctuary to the village of Vilaflor, where Betancourt was born. On the day of remembrance, April 24, thousands of people gather near the cave of St. Brother Pedro, where the solemn Eucharist takes place. Peter of St. Joseph lived for 41 years, the date of death was April 25, 1667 in Guatemala.

    Every year on June 29, the feast of Saint Peter the Apostle is celebrated in Tenerife.

    The Canary Islands – the perfect destination for any season

    The first thing that comes to mind when you hear the expression “Canary Islands” is something magical and distant. After all, until recently, rest on these exotic islands was just a dream for most tourists.

    But with the expansion of low-cost airlines to the islands, they have become available to everyone. And the prices for accommodation and services are comparable to those on the mainland, and, very importantly, there is no VAT here!

    The services, comforts and natural conditions of the Canary Islands are considered unique and it is the only place in Europe where you can relax on beautiful sandy beaches even in winter. That is why the archipelago is also known as the “Islands of Eternal Spring”.

    A bit of history and geography

    The islands became known after Christopher Columbus made his last stop at La Gomera before discovering America. Many states, such as the Netherlands, Great Britain or Morocco, fought for centuries over possession of the archipelago, but it remained part of the Spanish kingdom.

    The Canary Islands is an archipelago of seven islands of volcanic origin in the Atlantic Ocean, off the northwest coast of Africa – Tenerife , Gran Canaria , Fuerteventura , Lanzarote La Gomera and El Hierro .

    The islands belong to Spain and are an autonomous community.

    How to get to the Canary Islands

    Tickets for direct flights for the high season are sold well in advance of departure. If you want to save money, we recommend that you choose low-cost flights with transfers.

    The biggest low cost airlines in Europe – Ryanair and Wizz Air – but also other low cost companies fly to all islands.

    Here you can see all cheap deals in Tenerife or you can click on the link “All flights” and choose another island with regular passenger flights – Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura or Lanzarote.

    • Las Palmas LPA
    • Santa Cruz De La Palma SPC
    • Lanzarote ACE
    • Fuerteventura FUE
    • La Gomera GMZ
    • El Hierro VDE

    Hotels, transport and restaurants

    Prices in hotels are comparable to prices on the mainland. A hotel room for 2 people will cost you an average of 45 euros / night.

    Public transport, namely buses, is present in Tenerife and Gran Canaria, the cost of the trip is about 2.5 euros. Traveling by taxi will cost you 0.50 euros/km. You can also rent a car, prices start from 109euro / week.

    Prices in restaurants are comparable to prices in the south of mainland Spain – from 10 euros / person.

    Tenerife is the largest island in the archipelago and the highest. Here is the Teide – the highest peak in Spain and any island in the Atlantic Ocean. At the top is the Teide National Park (UNESCO heritage 2007) – the second largest park in the world in terms of the number of visitors.

    The island is served by 2 airports – Tenerife North and Tenerife South and is the most important tourist destination in Spain with more than 6 million tourists annually.

    Tenerife is known as the “Island of Eternal Spring”, located at the latitude of the Sahara desert, throughout the year there is a warm climate, averaging 22-24 degrees Celsius in winter and 26-28 in summer.

    On this exotic island you will find everything you need for a perfect holiday – perfect beaches lapped by the Atlantic Ocean, lush vegetation that seems like from another world, places with typical Spanish charm and vibrant nightlife.

    If we were to make a ranking of holiday destinations – Tenerife would definitely take first place – without a doubt.

    Gran Canaria is also called “The Continent in Miniature” because of the variety of climatic zones. From the top of a snowy mountain, in an hour you can already be in the middle of a desert with dunes similar to the dunes in the Sahara, and in another hour you can already be in the middle of a rainforest with banana and pomegranate plantations.

    The island’s capital, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, is a cosmopolitan city and one of the largest ports in Spain. The airport serving the island is also located here – Gran Canaria LPA.

    The island has 133 beaches with a variety of sands, vibrant nightlife, countless water sports opportunities, lush vegetation and exotic wildlife. If you love the sun and exotic places – Gran Canaria is the perfect place.

    Known since ancient times as the “Isle of the Blessed”, Fuerteventura is an island of volcanic origin and the driest of the Canary Islands, being the closest to the African coast.

    Fuerteventura has the most extensive beaches in the Canary archipelago. Here you will find more than 150 beaches with facilities for water sports, surfing and fishing. The island is ideal for families and couples who want to relax away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

    The airport that serves the island is Fuerteventura El Matorral.

    Lanzarote is a breathtaking island, with an extraordinary geology of 300 volcanic cones, bright lava fields and valleys full of palm trees.

    Lanzarote’s scenery is so striking that several science fiction films such as Journey to the Center of the Earth and When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth have been filmed here.

    La Palma (or San Miguel de La Palma), the northwestern and fifth largest island of the archipelago, has been declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO. The name of the island is translated from Spanish as the Isle of Palms, and is also called “Isla Bonita” (Beautiful Island) or “Isla Verde” (Green Island).

    Here is the Caldera de Taburiente National Park, one of the four national parks in the Canary Islands.

    For most tourists, the Canary Islands are associated with images of beach resorts and party-seeking travelers – La Gomera is a special place in this regard.

    This is the least known but also the most exotic island of the archipelago – a volcanic island with steep cliffs, surrounded by ancient forests and palm-lined valleys.

    La Gomera played an important role in the history of one of the world’s most famous explorers: in 1492, Christopher Columbus chose the island’s capital, San Sebastian, as his last port of call before setting off for the New World.

    El Hierro is removed in every way – it was even considered the end of the world until Columbus headed to the New World.

    The island is an ideal place for ecological and nature tourism and is classified by UNESCO as a biosphere reserve.


    The Canary archipelago is also known as the Hawaiian Islands of Europe. The islands fully deserve this name, because during the European season in autumn and winter, the beaches and reefs of Fuerteventura and Lanzarote offer excellent surfing conditions for beginners and experienced surfers alike.

    For an unforgettable holiday – we recommend you visit the Canary Islands – a place where you realize that heaven on earth exists!

    If you book flights and hotels on your own and in advance – a 7-day holiday in the Canary Islands for 2 people will cost you about 700 euros (flight + accommodation (breakfast included), to this you need to add the cost of food and entertainment – depending on your pocket and preferences

    Apartamento amplio con dos habitaciones y dos baños completos. Cocina equipada al detail. Personal muy atento y amable. Piscina exterior climatizada donde los niños disfrutaron como enanos. Puerto Santiago es sin duda muy recomendable para descansar. Estuvimos la primera semana de marzo y no se oía ni un ruido durante la noche. Sin dudar repetiría la experiencia, sobre todo ahora que ya conozco las rutas y no me perdería por carreteras secundarias, xD

    General information about food in Tenerife

    Various cafes and restaurants in Tenerife appeared several decades ago. At that time, there was an active growth in the tourist flow to the Canary Islands. Some established cooking traditions in Tenerife may not appeal to tourists. Many traditions here were formed under the influence of English tourists, who at different times were in the majority here. Since the British are unpretentious in food, dishes began to be prepared according to the principle faster and easier. Some travelers from other countries often do not like it.

    Food in Tenerife

    Influenced by tourists from the UK, cafes and restaurants in Tenerife are built like small bars around tourist centers and beaches. By and large, continental breakfasts and fast food are prepared there. As for the fast food chains themselves, here you can find McDonald’s, Little Italy pizzerias, Telepizza, etc. And there are also numerous cafes that offer British-style breakfasts, including fries, bacon, sandwiches and the like.

    Fortunately, the cuisine of Tenerife was not only influenced by British tourists. It also adopted dishes from other regions of Spain, as well as cooking traditions from South America. The cuisine of Tenerife is based on Mediterranean cooking traditions. In order to taste the traditional cuisine of Tenerife and Spain, you need to move away from the popular tourist areas of the island. In cafes and restaurants far from the main resorts, you can try local dishes from meat, fish, potatoes, tropical fruits, vegetables, rice and so on.

    The most popular type of meat among the locals is goat meat and young lamb. However, beef is also quite common in meat dishes. As for fish, the most common foods in Tenerife are sardines, sea bream, black, veyja, etc.

    The inhabitants of the island prepare their dishes quickly and unpretentiously. The fish and meat are fried and then served with the signature local mojo sauce. For its preparation, greens and spices are used, as well as olive oil. In local cafes, dishes such as omelet with potatoes (tortilla de patata), jamon (Jamon Serrano), all kinds of cheeses are popular.

    In addition, you can find combinations of other dishes. For example, chips and cutlets, scrambled eggs and a number of other foods are mixed. It is worth noting a large number of dishes based on legumes and potatoes. Most often they are combined with fish, meat and vegetables. Fried cornmeal called gofio is often added to food prepared in Tenerife.

    There is no exact meal time in Tenerife. Most often, people have lunch here between 13:00 and 15:00, and dinner starts at about 21:00. Now, let’s look at the main popular products in Tenerife.

    Back to content

    Produce in Tenerife

    Fruit

    • Bananas. This is the main fruit that tourists who have visited Tenerife will call you. Banana plantations occupy vast areas on the island;
    • Grapes. Vineyard plantations also cover a significant area of ​​Tenerife’s agricultural land;
    • Various fruit trees grow in the northern part of the island (mainly in mountainous areas). Apricots, plums, pears, peaches, cherries and apples are grown there;
    • Lemons, oranges, grapefruits are also grown in the north of Tenerife;
    • Almonds grow in the arid regions of Tenerife. A large cluster of almond trees can be found in an area called Santiago del Teide. These trees become especially beautiful during flowering in early spring;
    • Tenerife’s exotic fruits (mango, avocado, papaya) grow almost everywhere on the island. Some of them are grown directly on banana plantations. Here you can find a melon tree;
    • In the northern part of Tenerife, sweet chestnuts and walnuts also grow. The local population is very fond of chestnuts.

    Fruits Tenerife

    It cannot be said that fruits are a complete food, and you can only eat them. But, while relaxing in Tenerife, you must definitely include local fruits in your diet. Due to the fact that they are grown right here, are not preserved and are not transported over long distances, they retain all the useful substances. It is also worth noting that many of the trees that bloom on the island can be dangerous for people with allergies.

    Wines

    The best accompaniment to a meal in Tenerife is the local wines. Tenerife wines have their own unique aroma and taste. This is due to the fact that the vineyards here grow on volcanic soil in their microclimate. The island of Tenerife is divided into five wine regions, which are distinguished by their wines. Let’s take a quick look at them and the varieties of wine produced there.

    • Icoden-Daute-Isora area. It is located on the slopes of the Teide volcano. Rose, white and red wines are made here. The most popular brands are white Vinatigo Blanco, Malvasia Dulce, Malvasia Tradicional and red Vinatigo Tintilla;
    • Abona area. This wine region is located in the south of Tenerife. Grapes are cultivated here, from which dessert wines are then obtained. Such varieties as white Malvasia Essencia, red Erwin and pink Cumbritas are in great demand;
    • Tacoronte Acentejo. This wine region is located in the north of Tenerife and white, red and rosé wines are also produced here. Of these, the following can be noted: red Crater, Autor, Vendimia Seleccionada and pink Petit Verdot Rosado.
    • Valle de Orotava. The area has very fertile valleys, which gives the grapes a rich aroma and delicate taste. The most popular red wines in this region are Cruz del Teide Tinto Vendimia Seleccionada, Arautava Tinto Fermentado en Barrica, Gran Tehjda Selec;
    • Valle de Guimar. This wine region is located in the east of Tenerife and the vineyards here are at an altitude of 200 to 800 m above sea level. Popular wines include sparkling Rondell, Rose Semi Seco and white Contiempo Vidueño.

    Tenerife wines

    Tenerife also offers wines produced in small quantities from private estates with food. The taste of such varieties of the species is bright and unforgettable. They do not contain preservatives. Wine in private farms does not age, but gradually oxidizes. The result is a rather original taste.

    Seafood

    Seafood in Tenerife is much more valued than animal meat. Basically, fish is fried in oil, stewed or boiled. You can also find food from pickled and dried fish. In total, there are about 20 different names of fish in local dishes.

    Traditional Canarian seafood dishes include sancocho canario. This is a soup made from vegetables and boiled fish. Usually, black fish is used for this, which resembles sea bass. Sweet potatoes and potatoes are also put in the soup.

    Restaurants in Tenerife also serve fish dishes such as sea bream, sea bass, vieja. Vieja is a type of parrot fish that has a beak instead of a mouth. But, some may find the sweetish taste of this fish unpleasant. In local bars and cafes, you can try food made from boca negru, moray eels, sama, mero and others.

    Tenerife Seafood

    In reputable Tenerife restaurants there is always a showcase where seafood is presented on ice. Customers indicate what they need to cook and that product is sent to the kitchen. Roasted sprats and other small fish are popular with tourists. It also happens that small fried cuttlefish fall with beer. Among the seafood snacks in Tenerife, marinated anchovies called boquerones and camarones shrimp are worth noting. An excellent dish is shrimp with garlic, which are cooked in hot oil with spices.

    It is worth noting that, despite the location of Tenerife in the Atlantic Ocean, a lot of seafood in local shops and restaurants is imported. Of course, a self-respecting restaurant buys its catch from local fishermen, but it is not always rich.

    Cheeses

    As with other islands in the Canadian archipelago, goat cheese is often found in restaurants and shops in Tenerife. This food is quite popular with locals and tourists. Goat cheese from Tenerife has repeatedly won prizes at various exhibitions of agricultural products. At the same time, it should be said that when preparing the traditional Canarian goat cheese, cow’s or sheep’s milk is added to the milk of goats. Among the popular varieties of cheese produced in Tenerife are semicurado, fresco, curado.

    Tenerife cheeses

    The queso de flor is also worth mentioning. This is a floral cheese also produced in the Canary Islands. The main place of its production is the island of Gran Canaria. Queso de flor is produced using cow’s and sheep’s milk. And it is called flower because when it is prepared, artichoke flowers of a blue-violet hue are added.

    In addition to the usual slightly salted cheeses, the Canary Islands also produce smoked cheeses made from goat’s and sheep’s milk. For the preparation of such cheese, milk obtained from goats of special breeds is used. Thanks to this, smoked cheese has a unique taste.

    Islands such as El Hierro and Fuerteventura produce majorero goat cheese. In Tenerife and other islands, short and long aged cheeses are produced. Some varieties add red pepper, corn, olive oil, and so on. A popular dish among locals is almogrote. They make it from hard varieties of local cheese.

    Honey

    Honey from the Canary Islands in general and from Tenerife in particular has practically no analogues in the world. Thanks to the successful microclimate of the island, various types of honey are mined here. Bees are almost all year round and you need to work here with various trees, herbs and shrubs.

    A key feature of Tenerife honey is that bees collect pollen from endemic plants that grow on the slopes of the Teide volcano. Particularly rare are the tahinaste flower, as well as the retama del teide shrubs. Locally produced honey is a great addition to a meal in Tenerife.

    For example, palm honey is produced on the island of La Gomera, but it is not collected by bees. It is a syrup made from guaparo juice. And this juice is just obtained from the date palm, which grows in the Canary Islands. Such palm honey has a dark color and a specific taste.

    Tenerife honey

    Honey for the locals of Tenerife serves as a means of strengthening immunity and protecting against colds. Here, honey is highly valued and in honor of this product, the locals even opened a honey house ─ Casa de la Miel. It is located in a small village called El Sauzal. By the way, tourists often buy honey in Tenerife as an original gift for their relatives and friends.

    Where to Eat? Restaurants Tenerife

    There are a lot of restaurants on the island of Tenerife and it is impossible to cover them all. Therefore, let’s look at several groups of restaurants with examples. To begin with, it is worth mentioning the restaurants serving traditional dishes of the Canary Islands. What is meant by this? These are the places where you can taste goat and lamb, gofio dishes (barley or corn dough), papas arrugadas (these are local potatoes that are boiled in ocean water). Since there are few pure Canarian food and recipes, they are diluted with Spanish cuisine, which brings soups, a variety of vegetables and seafood. In addition, the production of wine and the cultivation of fruits came to the Canary Islands with the Spaniards.

    So, restaurants with traditional Canarian and Spanish cuisine can be visited only away from the main resort areas. For example, tourists in their reviews advise traveling to Tahao, which is located a few tens of kilometers from Santa Cruz.

    Among the restaurants in Las Americas with traditional cuisine in the reviews of tourists are the following:

    • El Torito;
    • Meson Castellano;
    • La Fresquera;
    • La Brasa.

    La Brasa is considered one of the best meat restaurants in Las Americas. Here you can taste bull meat, lamb cooked on coals, as well as a large selection of local wines. Since the restaurant is in demand among tourists, it is better to book a table here in advance.

    Now a few words about restaurants in Tenerife that sell quality seafood dishes. As already mentioned, most seafood in Tenerife is imported. They are caught elsewhere. Therefore, such dishes are valued even higher than meat ones. So that seafood restaurants keep quite high prices. If you believe the reviews of tourists, then the most delicious seafood restaurants in Tenerife are located in a village called La Caleta, which is not far from Las Americas. Listed below are good restaurants with delicious seafood dishes.

    • La Vieja. Pretty expensive restaurant on the Atlantic coast. Excellent quality dishes and fish are served, as well as seafood snacks;
    • Las Arenas. Located in Tahao. They serve shrimp with garlic, fried fish pescaito, Galician-style octopus;
    • El Cine. Located in Los Cristianos. This is another fish restaurant that can be more like a cafe. There are only a dozen fish dishes on the menu, but the prices are affordable. And most importantly, the food here is of excellent quality. It often happens that there is a queue of visitors to this cafe. Octopuses, squids, cuttlefish are perfectly prepared here. All seafood and fish prepared in the cafe are local. The cafe buys them from local fishermen.

    You can also mention other restaurants with world cuisines on the island of Tenerife. For a change, you can go and taste the food that is prepared in them.

    • Parilla Argentina Gardel. Argentine meat restaurant in Los Cristianos. It is located near Las Vistas beach;
    • Restaurant 88. This Japanese restaurant is located in La Caleta. The establishment is located right on the ocean and offers a wide selection of dishes.

    Tenerife also has an abundance of various chain restaurants and fast food establishments. The average cost of a dinner for two with alcohol will cost about 50 euros, if not particularly chic.

    On the map below you can see the location of the above restaurants.

    My wife and I first came to rest in Tenerife, and we didn’t know what food was here. We did not live in a hotel, in rented apartments. Therefore, during the rest we ate on our own. If we talk about self-cooking, then you can buy food in supermarkets in Mercadona and cook them. The products there are pretty good. You can buy good poultry, wine, meat, various dairy products and the like. Almost everything is sold in Mercadona.

    Naturally, during our stay in Tenerife, we have repeatedly tried food in restaurants and cafes. We love seafood and therefore leaned on such dishes. Before we left, we were recommended several good restaurants by friends. We visited small restaurants that are far from the resort areas. Some of them were even in small houses, where there were no more than two halls, and only a few tables. It is in such establishments that you can taste the local cuisine.

    As for specific products, I can mention the wonderful potatoes served in local restaurants. They boil it in salt water right in their uniforms. It turns out great taste. The second number is delicious mojo sauce. These sauces have a different composition and, depending on this, different colors. We tried green, orange and red. Of course, we tried paella, but this is already a traditional dish of mainland Spain, and not just Tenerife. As for fruits, I liked the small bananas that are grown here, as well as tangerines and mangoes. Good fruits and vegetables are sold here in fruiteries. These are small shops.

    Karina May 2017

    My husband and I spent three weeks on vacation in Tenerife. We were told a lot and enthusiastically about the Canary Islands, and we decided to try it. I can’t say that it was a delight. The resort of Costa Adeje is, in principle, a normal place for a measured rest, but there is nothing outstanding. As for the food in Tenerife, I don’t understand the praise addressed to her at all.

    When we travel, we always try to try some original food that is only available in this resort. But there was nothing special to try here. Locally produced cheese was basically normal, but too salty. Only once in one small restaurant did they eat wonderfully cooked fish and potatoes. Two varieties of mojo sauce were served with them. In addition, they tasted delicious wine. However, I explain this by the fact that this restaurant was a family business. It is very small and is run by the family of the owner of this restaurant. But street cafes serve some rubbish. Practically there are only omelettes, fried bacon and beans from the dishes. And also some sausages and Coca-Cola. In general, poor quality fast food. Even in the hotel restaurant the food is much better.

    Daria, December 2016

    Family vacation in Las Americas resort for two weeks. What can I say about food in Tenerife? As for the restaurant in the hotel, we had breakfast there. The room rate included only buffet breakfast food. Almost no different from other hotels of this class. We had lunch and dinner at various catering establishments near our hotel and the embankment.

    There are many establishments with international cuisine. Italian, Asian and local restaurants can be found. We tried lamb, shrimp, and other seafood dishes. I must say that normal seafood food in Tenerife is not cheap.

    At the same time, the portions in the restaurants are quite large and you can eat your fill. I also liked the fact that the staff in the restaurants does not impose anything extra on you. That is, you order what you need, and no one else bothers you with additional services.

    If the article was useful to you, share the link to it on social networks. This will help the development of the site. Corrections and additions to the article, as well as your feedback on food in Tenerife, leave in the comments.

    • Top ChoiceSights in Santa Cruz de la Palma

      Santuario de la Virgen de las Nieves

      For splendid views down the valley to Santa Cruz, put aside time to tackle the 4km uphill hike north of town to La Palma’s main object of pilgrimage, the 17th-century Santuario de la Virgen de las Nieves with its fabulously ornate interior. The wooden Mudéjar-carved ceiling, sculptures and sparkling crystal chandeliers are the precursor to the 82cm-tall Virgin Mary herself, surrounded by a glittering altar. The 14th-century sculpture is the oldest religious statue in the Canary Islands and the object of deep veneration.

    • Top ChoiceSights in Central La Palma

      Parque Nacional de la Caldera de Taburiente

      Declared a national park in 1954, this beautiful park is at the heart of La Palma, both geographically and symbolically. Extending across 46.9 sq km, the park encompasses thick Canary pine forests, a wealth of freshwater springs and streams, waterfalls, impressive rock formations and many kilometres of hiking trails. Although you can reach a few miradors by car, you’ll need to explore on foot to really experience the park at its best.

    • Top ChoiceSights in Fuencaliente

      Volcán San Antonio Visitor Centre & Volcán San Antonio

      The visitor centre is your first stop if you want to explore the volcanoes. Displays are well-captioned and informative, but the layout is not very imaginative and rather dated. It’s far more interesting to head out and walk along a section of the rim of Volcán San Antonio, a yawning chasm of this great black cone, which last blew in 1949 and has now been repopulated by hardy Canarian pines. The crater is also a superb stargazing viewpoint.

    • Top ChoiceSights in Parque Nacional de la Caldera de Taburiente

      Pico Bejenado

      At 1854m, clambering up to this peak offers glorious views over the pines, valleys and ridges of the Caldera de Taburiente. The peak marks the conclusion of the hike here from Pista de Valencia below along a clearly marked path through the pines. Note the visitor’s book in the metal box chained to one of the rocks – leave your reflections on the views and read about the experiences of other hikers.

    • Top ChoiceSights in Northern La Palma

      Santo Domingo

      Wind your way down the lovely, sinuous LP-112 to the settlement of Santo Domingo and then turn left in the village and follow the signs to the Puerto de Santo Domingo. At the end of the road is a small car park and mirador with sublime views to the Roque de Santo Domingo and the Roque de las Tabaidas. In the village itself, you can find restaurants and cafeterias not far from the Iglesia Nuestra Señora de La Luz.

    • Top ChoiceSights in Parque Nacional de la Caldera de Taburiente

      Observatorio del Roque de Los Muchachos

      The huge telescopes on the peak of Roque de los Muchachos belong to the island’s astronomical observatory, one of the world’s best places to study the night sky and in 2012 deemed the world’s first Unesco-certified Starlight Reserve. The mammoth Grantecan (Gran Telescopio Canarias; GTC) at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos boasts one of the world’s largest telescopes and the largest single-aperture optical telescope on the planet. The observatory can be visited by booking a tour.

    • Sights in Southern La Palma

      Parque Ecológico de Belmaco

      The first ancient petroglyphs found on the archipelago were discovered at this site in 1752. A 300m trail that winds around various cave dwellings (complete with animal sound effects!) once inhabited by Benahoare tribespeople is the heart of this archaeological park; the highlight is the squiggling etchings, which date back to AD 150. There’s also a two-room museum with reproductions and information regarding the history of the discovery.

    • Top ChoiceSights in San Andrés

      Charco Azul

      Creatively designed Charco Azul is a blending of moulded concrete with natural volcanic rocks. The effect is stunning, especially when the waves are whipping up: a series of natural-looking saltwater pools with sunbathing platforms and a walkway between them. Bus 100 (€2.40) regularly runs from Santa Cruz de la Palma to Los Sauces where you can change to bus 104 from Los Sauces to Charco Azul (€1.50, 10 minutes, three daily).

    • Sights in Fuencaliente

      Volcán Teneguía

      Volcán Teneguía’s 1971 eruption was the most recent in the archipelago. A signposted trail from Volcán San Antonio, near the visitor centre, leads you here on a downhill hike over scrunchy volcanic gravel (wear sturdy shoes). The easy to moderate walk to the volcano and back takes about two hours. If that’s not far enough, you can continue onwards for a further hour (one way) down to the coast at the Faro (Lighthouse) de Fuencaliente near the southern tip of La Palma.

    • Sights in Fuencaliente

      Salinas de Fuencaliente

      Beyond the lighthouse at the south of the island are the Salinas de Fuencaliente, which you can explore along a self-guided path; explanations on boards tell you all about the processes of salt extraction from seawater. The pans cover a huge area, totalling 3.5 hectares.

    • Sights in Northern La Palma

      Parque Arqueológico de El Tendal

      With a new and very informative exhibition centre with touchscreen displays, this museum and cave complex at the side of the LP-1 road to Los Sauces was still opening up when we visited. The centre faces a series of caves used by Benahoarita people in the barranco below, some of which should be accessible by the time you read this. The exhibition centre has a video on the history of the caves and their importance to the early people who settled here.

    • Top ChoiceSights in Villa de Mazo

      Museo Casa Roja

      This handsome ochre-red mansion (built in 1911), located down one of the steep streets from the main road, has downstairs exhibits on Corpus Christi – a festival Villa de Mazo celebrates with particular gusto: streets are decorated with elegant ‘carpets’ made of flower petals, seeds and soil. Upstairs are displays of linen and embroidery; don’t miss the fabulous tiled bathroom with the painted toilet. The house also has an impressive imperial staircase, further ornate tiled floors and a lovely, small landscaped front garden with another garden behind.

    • Sights in Parque Nacional de la Caldera de Taburiente

      Lava Tubes

      On the hike up to Pico Bejenado, and at other sights in the park, you will see lava tubes in the rock by the side of the path. Originally, these were conduits in the rock through which lava would pass, formed when slow-moving lava cooled enough for a tube to form. The lava tubes visible at this spot appear quite small, but one system of tubes on Teide, Tenerife, is over 18km in length.

    • Sights in Los Llanos de Aridane

      Plaza España

      Relaxing and good-looking Plaza España is the heart of the historic town. Majestic, ancient and sizeable Indian laurel trees provide a much-welcome leafy canopy on even the sunniest days, making this the perfect spot to picnic, people-watch or relax in a cafe. The Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de los Remedios dominates the northern flank of the square. Have a coffee in one of the cafes bordering the square and afterwards wander the surrounding streets and plazas, which preserve considerable traditional character.

    • Sights in Puerto Naos

      El Remo

      Just a short way down to the very end of the road beyond Puerto Naos, past the banana greenhouses, brings you to this small village right by the sea, composed of a gathering of low-build houses, cafeterias and restaurants. It’s a fun place to scramble over the rocks looking for crabs (plentiful) and watching the waves crash ashore. A black-sand playa runs largely the length of Calle Remo; sunsets are terrific.

    • Sights in Parque Nacional de la Caldera de Taburiente

      Lomo del Estrecho Engravings

      A marker at 2.5km from Pista de Valencia and 3km from Pico Bejenado points to the prehistoric Petroglifos (petroglyphs) 150m along a path to your right. The carving – housed within a metal cage – was discovered in 1988. It is quite hard to make out the pattern on the rock if the sun is shining directly onto it, but you can discern the curved lines. It possibly served the purpose of marking out pasture fields or former shepherding roads, but its precise purpose is unknown.

    • Top ChoiceSights in Santa Cruz de la Palma

      Iglesia del Salvador

      The interior of this magnificent church boasts a glittering baroque pulpit dating back to 1750 and a stunningly intricate and coloured 16th-century wooden ceiling considered to be one of the best Mudéjar (Islamic-style architecture) works in all the Canaries. There are also several fine sculptures, dazzling stained-glass windows and a huge portrait of St Christopher and another portraying St Michael. The church overlooks and dominates Plaza de España.

    • Top ChoiceSights in El Paso

      Museo de la Seda

      Learn the secrets of the caterpillars that spin dresses fit for a marriage. The silk produced here is made according to traditions that have barely changed since the industry arrived on the island in the 16th century. There is an upstairs museum with some magnificent silk garments on display from as far afield as China and India, plus a short film about silk production. End your visit at the downstairs workshop where you can see the weaving in action.

    • Sights in Santa Cruz de la Palma

      Iglesia de Santo Domingo

      If you follow the steps heading up out of Plaza de España to the upper town, you will find the shady Plaza Santo Domingo. The substantial Iglesia de Santo Domingo here boasts an important collection of Flemish paintings and dates to 1530. Note that the church is often shut; the adjacent building, which looks like it is part of the church, is actually a school (it has maroon doors, while the church has green doors) which you should not enter.

    • Sights in Northern La Palma

      Parque Cultural La Zarza

      Two Benahoare petroglyphs are the main attraction at the Parque Cultural La Zarza. The geometric-shaped etchings lie along a 1.5km circuit within the park itself. Back at the visitor centre, you can watch an informative 20-minute video about the life of the original inhabitants and take a tour around the interactive museum. To reach the park, head west along the LP-1; it’s on a curve and easy to miss – keep an eye out for the signpost.

    Things to do in La Palma

    1.

    Go stargazing

    La Palma is blessed with some of the clearest skies in Europe, for that reason the skies are protected within a ‘starlight reserve’ and recognised on an international level for low levels of light pollution. From La Palma you can see a plethora of constellations and visit some stunning observatories built to view the sky above. Two of La Palma’s observatories are set up by the IAC (Canary Islands Institute of Astrophysics) to study the night sky, demonstrating how phenomenal the skies here really are.

    Simply look up at night or view the stars from one of the many observatories, including Astro La Palma and Roque de Los Muchachos, where telescopes allow you to witness the surface of the moon, rings of Saturn or even Jupiter’s moons.

    There are several stargazing tours, walks and excursions taking place on the island. Admission to Astro la Palma from €9.

    2. Spot dolphins and whales

    The Atlantic Ocean surrounding La Palma is home to a wonderful array of marine life including dolphins and whales. Several boat tours and catamarans operate across the island with experienced and knowledgeable guides, showcasing the beauty of La Palma’s marine life. Watch dolphins jump joyfully alongside your boat and witness the majestic sight of pilot whales coming up for air.

    3. Swim in the natural sea pools at Charco Azul and La Fajana

    La Palma’s natural pools are filled with clear sea water making them a wonderful place to swim and a fantastic experience. Surrounding the pools are warm rocks in which you can sunbathe and relax, as well as toilet facilities and a small café. At Charco Azul there are showers to wash off which cost around 50 cents. Charco Azul and Piscinas de La Fajana are amongst the best natural pools on La Palma.

    4. Visit Roque de Los Muchachos Observatory

    Roque de Los Muchachos is the highest peak on La Palma offering jaw-dropping surroundings and views across the island. At the peak is a collection of 13 gigantic telescopes in which to discover, including the world’s largest telescope. The observatory is located on the edge of Caldera de Taburiente at 2,396 above sea level and can be visited throughout the year on a request basis.

    Open from 16th September – 14th June. Visits are only available Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Open 9am – 12.30pm.  Must be booked in advance.

    5. Explore Santa Cruz de la Palma

    The capital of La Palma, Santa Cruz de la Palma, is a colourful and relaxed city, and a visit here is one of the best things to do in La Palma. Its 15th century buildings and flower filled balconies reflect the colonial era and its cobbled streets lead to quaint cafes and relaxed eateries. You can experience a delightful day trip here with plenty to entertain, including the colourful Avenida Maritima, impressive Iglesia del Salvador and tempting markets. Feel as if you have stepped back in time in the beautiful Old Town while soaking up the maritime atmosphere.  Easily accessed by bus or taxi from all La Palma towns.

    6. Salt pans of Fuencaliente

    At the most southernly tip of La Palma you will find the Salt Pans of Fuencaliente, one of the more unusual things to do in La Palma. Seawater is pumped in to shallow pools and left to dry in the sun resulting in natural salt formation. The salt is than packaged and sold in supermarkets across the island. The view of brilliant white against black volcanic rock is an impressive sight, and although the operation is small, it produces 500,000 kilos of natural salt a year.

    7. Uncover ancient carvings at Cultural Park La Zarza and Zarcita

    Enjoy a charming forest hike and uncover the carvings of La Zarza, which occupy 29 panels, and La Zarzita, which occupy 18 panels. This fascinating site was discovered in just 1941, but the carvings and petroglyphs are ancient. The park is small yet fascinating with a small museum in which to learn the origin and theories behind the ancient carvings.

    Entry fee €2. Summer 11am – 7pm, winter 11am – 5pm. Located in Garafia

    Did you know that the island of La Palma is recognized by UNESCO as a Biosphere Reserve?

    As you can imagine with this recognition, this island of volcanic origin stands out for its incredible natural landscapes. There are numerous walking routes in La Palma where you can forget about time and enjoy its landscapes.

    So that you don’t miss anything on your visit to this island, in this post we talk about all the essential things to see in La Palma.

    Roque de los Muchachos in La Palma

    This is the highest point on the island of La Palma. At 2,420 metres above sea level, from the Roque de los Muchachos you can observe the incredible landscapes of the Caldera de Taburiente National Park.

    If you want to be amazed by its landscapes, we recommend you to visit this area during the spring season, when the broom is in bloom. The views of this volcanic terrain in contrast with the yellow and white colors of these flowers are incredible.

    At the same point is the Observatorio Astrofísico del Roque de Los Muchachos (ORM). Thanks to the fact that it is clear almost all year round, La Palma is one of the most privileged places on the planet for astronomical observation. Don’t come back from your trip without seeing the stars in La Palma, it will be one of the coolest experiences of your life.

    Linden Tree Forest

    In the north of the island of La Palma, you will find the Linden Tree Forest. It is a subtropical laurel forest and is one of the oldest and most extensive of its kind in Europe.

    The trekking in this area is spectacular. You can visit the Cascada de los Tilos, or do the trek of the springs of Marcos and Cordero de La Palma, one of the natural wonders of Spain.

    Although the landscapes are undoubtedly beautiful, you have to be well prepared for this adventure. You will pass through 13 tunnels where the use of a torch will be essential, and if you do not want to get completely soaked, it is also advisable to wear a mackintosh.

    Route of the volcanoes of La Palma

    If there is one thing the Canary Islands can boast of, it is their volcanic origin. For this reason, one of the most recommended activities to do in La Palma is the route of the volcanoes.

    The route goes from the Refugio de El Pilar to Los Canarios. It is more than 17 kilometers along the GR 131 trail, and it is a trek of medium-high difficulty.

    During this route you can visit, for example, the Hoyo Negro or the Volcán Martín. Have you already put your trekking boots in your suitcase?

    Cubo de la Galga route

    Another place where the Canarian laurel forest is so predominant is the Enchanted Forest of La Palma.

    There you will find the Cubo de la Galga trail. Numerous trails run through this area, where you can choose between shorter routes of just 2 km, or longer ones of up to 9 km.

    Although it does not have a final monument or anything special to do, the truth is that the spectacular nature of the forest, where from one moment to the next you will believe that an elf is going to come out, is well worth the effort.

    Coloured waterfall in La Palma

    Without leaving the Caldera de Taburiente National Park, you are going to find a spectacular multicoloured waterfall… Yes, as you read.

    This is a waterfall in which the different minerals in the area have given it some very striking colours. The combination of yellowish and orange hues, together with the spectacular nature of the waterfall itself, make the coloured waterfall one of the most magical places on the island.

    Fuencaliente salt flats

    If you travel to the south of the island of La Palma, you can’t miss the Salinas de Fuencaliente.

    It is a place with beautiful contrast. The white of the salt pans blends with the volcanic black that predominates on the island, under the gaze of the Fuencaliente lighthouse.

    It is also one of the most famous spots on the island to watch the sunset, which will add that reddish colour to the landscape. What a combination!

    Echentive Beach

    If you fancy a dip somewhere different from the typical volcanic sandy beaches of the islands, this is the place for you.

    The Playa de Echentive is very close to the Fuencaliente lighthouse, in the south of La Palma. As a curiosity, you should know that its origin dates back to only half a century ago, in 1971, when the eruption of the Teneguía Volcano formed these landscapes.

    It is a totally unspoilt beach, where you can find several natural beaches of a spectacular emerald green colour. Moreover, its shallow depth makes these water bodies totally crystalline.

    Rain on La Palma is possible only in late spring and late autumn. In the summer, in September and October, there is practically no rainfall. The island of La Palma (Canary Islands) is called the most beautiful and green.

    The main attractions of the island of La Palma. EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT La Palma La Palma Canary

    As mentioned above, tourism does not dominate the island, and this can only be rejoiced at. Although the beaches of La Palma are good, they are few due to the peculiarities of the coast, which is an almost continuous line of rocks. In addition to the “classic” ones, offering an ordinary beach holiday, there are specialized ones: Playa Nueva suitable for surfing and nudist Las Monjas.

    Popular resorts of La Palma: quiet Los Cancajos on the east coast and cheerful Puerto Naos on the west. Of course, there are well-equipped beaches in the capital: one of them stretches all the way to the port.

    1. Santa Cruz de la Palma. The main man-made attraction of the island is its capital. Here, the ancient coastal streets, built up with magnificent buildings, mainly in the Renaissance style, are perfectly preserved.
    1. Caldera de Taburiente National Park. Natural attraction No. 1, which is a giant basin (caldera) on the site of a once-existing volcano. Now it is a flourishing fertile valley. For connoisseurs of comfort, special areas for rest and snacks are organized, even with barbecue facilities.

    Climate, nature and ecology of La Palma

    The landscape of the south of the island is decorated with a mountain range, more precisely, a ridge of volcanic cones, ending in the south with the dormant volcano Tenegua. In the north is the highest mountain of La Palma – Roque de Los Muchachos (2426 m), as well as the world’s largest caldera Taburiente with a diameter of more than 10 km (a vast basin formed after an eruption at the site of the crater). At the top of the mountain there is an observatory with the largest telescope in the Northern Hemisphere. True, it is closed to the public.

    More than a third of the island is occupied by pine forests and laurel groves. La Palma is the only island in the archipelago where there are, albeit small, rivers. The soils of the island are fertile, so agriculture is developed here.

    La Palma is located in a subtropical arid climate zone, with no significant changes in weather conditions throughout the year. Daytime temperatures in winter are +18⁰ … +21⁰, in summer: +25⁰ … +28⁰. The sea warms up to a comfortable +22⁰ in early June and begins to cool down only in early November. The water temperature never drops below +18⁰, but not everyone likes a refreshing swim. The amount of precipitation is low and is about 300 mm per year. Rains are more common in late autumn and early spring.

    The easiest way to get to the Beautiful Green Island is by plane: not far from the capital there is an airport that even accepts international flights. There is also a ferry service to neighboring islands.

    Puerto Naos is a nice little resort with 330 hours of sunshine a year. Here is the longest black sand beach on the island, many cafes, restaurants and shops.

At the very top of Mount Muchasos, at an altitude of 2400 m, an observation deck has recently opened – the highest on the island. The new observation deck is part of the Espigon del Roque de los Muchachos sightseeing route and is expected to soon become the most visited on the island. Lomo de las Chosas, on the other hand, is a short and easy trail.

    In a 5 sq. km there are several hiking trails. One of them leads to the observation deck of Mirador Las Barrandas. A longer (6 km) and difficult trail with steep climbs goes northwest to Caldera de Marcos y Cordero, where you can admire the picturesque waterfalls.

    Have you already felt the power of attraction? Then welcome to the island of Palma! It occupies only 708 square kilometers, so we have no doubt that you will want to explore it all. And we anticipate the first question upon arrival.

    Where can I rent a car?

    It can be rented directly at the airport, so don’t rush to leave it. To do this, you need to have a driver’s (international) license, a voucher and a credit card. The list of required documents does not end there, so we advise you to take care of the full package of documents in advance and book a car in advance. By the way, if you are under 21, the company may not give the car back. In some regions, the critical age reaches 23 years.

    Rent a car to get more out of Palma!

    And finally, a couple of reminders about the rules of the road, which are highly recommended on the island of Palma:

    • at a pedestrian crossing everyone must be allowed to pass. In this place, it is not customary for pedestrians to fear for the carelessness of the driver. In addition to people, goats, cats, dogs and rabbits can jump out onto the road. Be careful, especially at night!
    • overtaking cars on the right is not accepted;
    • Want to overtake a car while in the leftmost lane? Turn on the left turn signal – they will understand you and give in;
      If you want to slow down, first put your hand to the left or turn on the left turn signal. So you warn about the stop following you. On a mountain road with poor visibility before turning – horn;
    • yellow marking prohibits parking a car;
    • fine for exceeding the speed limit by 20 km/h will be €100;
    • for driving under the influence of alcohol can face jail time;
    • and lastly, representatives of the traffic police do not take bribes

    Accommodation on the island Palma

    Now let’s talk about housing. What do you want: villa, hacienda, cottage or apartment?

    Fazenda keeps a long history within its walls. Sometimes she is two hundred years old. A cozy rural house with gardens, a swimming pool and everything you need will plunge you into complete peace and give you an unforgettable experience. Weekly rent will cost at least €300-400. The price may include cleaning, transfer to the airport, yacht rental and much more.

    Apartments on the island Palma is promised a no less comfortable stay, but directly in the resort town, where, in addition to the pool and terrace, you can see the beach and bars-restaurants not far away. The cost is from €300.

    Spacious villas will cost you €1000 per week. And for lovers of relaxation with an agricultural “tinge”, cottages are suitable: cozy small houses with a plot of land, a garden or a kitchen garden. You will have to pay €350 or more for them.

    Separately, I would like to tell you about one unique hotel for adults. Have you ever wanted to spend a couple of unforgettable days in the museum? The Hacienda de Abajo hotel offers to walk past the relics and feel like an exhibit in some sense. The history of the estate begins in the 16th century, but it was opened only in 2012 after a thorough restoration. This is probably why the price tag is quite acceptable: from €92 per night. The hotel is located in the quiet historical center of the resort town of Tazacorte, surrounded by banana plantations and with magnificent views of the Atlantic Ocean.

    Beaches

    In the same place, in Tazacorte, there is an eternally sunny beach, on which gloomy clouds do not cast shadows even in winter. And at night along the coast, dozens of fishermen in boats wait for their catch. The light of the lamps, reflected in the dark water, and the male singing are mesmerizing! The table below shows a few more notable beaches.

    A couple of facts that were not included in the article:

    • Tenerife is so far the only island in the Canary Islands with which there is an international air connection. Therefore, you will have to get to Palma “the old fashioned way”, with transfers.
    • There is practically no crime in this place, life is measured and calm.
    • In addition to the forests on the Palm, you can admire the extensive heather fields.
    • Since scientists are monitoring our Universe around the clock, special lighting has been installed on the roads, which does not interfere with astrophysicists’ work.
    • There are several place names that include the word “Palm”. Do not confuse them, so as not to be instead of the Canary Island of Palma, for example, Palma de Mallorca, which is on about. Majorca.
    • The average air temperature during the year is approximately 22-24 °C.
    • The palm tree is able to provide itself with vegetables and fruits. And the potato crop is harvested here four times a year.
    • There are not many places for tourists on the island – not enough: only seven thousand. So, hurry up!;)
    • The palm tree is known for producing delicious honey.

    Active recreation

    In this regard, the island has no less opportunities than the number of attractions. Surprised? It seems, what else can you do in a place surrounded by azure warm water, under the gentle sun? Here’s what:

    • diving or spearfishing. If you have already mastered scuba diving, it’s time to get down to business smarter. True, there are many conditions for spearfishing to take place. First, not every fish can be caught. Secondly, not on every day and, thirdly, not in any place you like. In addition, prey cannot be sold, and there must be a license to fish. If these restrictions have discouraged you from hunting underwater, well, you can just go fishing. Catching a rich catch – no matter where you are: in a boat or under water – is always a pleasure. Or even easier: just go on a boat trip. It’s not bad too;
    • climbing or paragliding. And for this, and for another type of entertainment, there is everything you need here. By the way, Palm Island is considered one of the most ideal places for free flights;
    • arrange a real marathon or explore the route on foot, visiting the ancient caves. You can use the mountain bike

    Pay attention to the possibility of a tour of the acropark, which is very close to the Refugio del Pilar. Hanging bridges, cables and nets will dilute a relaxing holiday with vivid impressions.

    ‘The island of eternal spring’

    Tenerife sits in the Atlantic Ocean, just off the coast of northern Africa and shares the continent’s scorching sun and consistently warm climate, even during the nights, hence why it’s been given the nickname ‘the island of eternal spring’.

    Where else in the world can you bask under the sun whilst admiring the snow-capped summit of a mountain? Tenerife holidays invite you to enjoy dry weather and temperatures of 24°C to 28°C during the summer and even in winter it stays between 22°C to 25°C – warm enough for sunbathing at Christmas!

    Black and gold sands

    The island’s native volcanic sands are a striking black colour, however over the years sand has been lovingly imported from the Sahara to create several golden stretches of sunbathing space in Tenerife. Black or gold, most of the beaches in Tenerife boast Blue Flag status for cleanliness and quality of sand.

    Natural beauty

    If holidays bring out your adventurous side, you can hike through the lush forest of Teide National Park and up to the peak of Mount Teide – Spain’s highest mountain and the third largest volcano in the world! For a more leisurely trip we recommend taking the cable car high above the clouds to near the 3,718-metre summit where you can gaze across the turquoise sea and take some top-notch holiday snaps of Tenerife.

    You can take one of the daily buses from either Costa Adeje or Playa de las Americas to the base of the mountain. For more natural beauty on your Tenerife holidays, take a trip to Garachico in the north where the kids will love exploring the volcanic rock pools – you might even spot some of the underwater wildlife native to Tenerife.

    Attractions aplenty

    A cheap holiday to Tenerife means you can explore the country – you’ll never be short of something to see, do or experience on Tenerife holidays. For a truly amazing day trip you can go on a whale watching boat ride, take the Submarine Safari or visit a banana plantation. Access to Los Realejos plantation, near Puerto de la Cruz, is free or you can drive through the middle of it to experience the lush landscape and stunning ocean views.

    The island is also crammed with mainstay tourist attractions including animal parks and waterparks in the south and the popular Loro Parque in the north with top animal shows and interactions. The waterparks in Tenerife are the envy of the Canary Islands – Siam Park provides thrills for adrenaline junkies whilst Aqualand is the choice for families and has a kidzworld, dolphinarium and chilled out rides as well as some more adventurous flumes if the adults can sneak off for a go. Buses to the park run daily from Costa Adeje and Playa de las Americas.

    Tenerife holidays offer the culinary delights of Canarian Cuisine. And take it from us, the ideal way to spend your nights is sampling the mouthwatering local food. Home grown meals can be found in a number of restaurants and tapas bars with many ocean-facing eateries offering freshly caught seafood – the parrot fish, vieja, is particularly good.

    Also well worth a try is the Canary Island’s signature dish of Pappas Arragudas – unskinned potatoes boiled in sea water, drizzled in a garlicy mojo sauce. Due to the rich volcanic soils and mild climate, Tenerife produces many distinctive and attractive wines and has five wine producing regions so there is a local wine to go with every dish.

    Tenerife is big on food – and not just their own – you can get almost any type of cuisine on the island, from Indian to Italian. Or for those with homesick taste buds, the majority of resorts have plenty of British pubs serving familiar dishes, drinks and even Sunday dinners.

    Carnival time

    Spend your holidays partying in the street. With a carnival that is second only to Rio’s, Tenerife sure knows how to fiesta. The week long Carnival of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, which takes place during the week of Ash Wednesday in February, attracts visitors from all over the world who come to see the elaborate floats and costumes and delicious tortillas.

    Smaller scale celebrations also take place this week in resorts around the island. Tenerife gets in the party mood for many other occasions across the year, with tourists always invited to join in the fun and celebrate well into the night.

    Gorgeous golf greens

    Why Tenerife?

    Holidays to Tenerife are famous for offering sun worshippers the chance to kick back and relax with a book or a cocktail in one of the most stunning and accessible holiday spots around. Brimming with belting beaches and homely restaurants, Tenerife holidays are popular for good reason. There’s a guarantee of glorious summer sunshine, gleaming blue seas, and loads of fun activities for families and adventurers that will fill the days with beaming smiles and plenty of laughter.

    Slip and slide your way across the island’s world-famous waterparks on some outrageously fun free-fallers and tranquil lazy rivers. Heading out to sea, serious explorers can take a plunge beneath the waves and scuba-dive among the kaleidoscope of sea life, meeting rainbows of fish and other fascinating creatures. Thrill-seekers can also take to the open waters, zooming around the glorious, postcard-worthy coast on a jet-ski before heading back to the mainland for a well-earned, hearty feast.

    Golfers can tee off on some of the glorious greens dotted across the island, while partygoers young and old can hit the strips of Playa de Las Americas and dance until the early hours with friendly locals and other holidaymakers out for a big sesh.

    And if sitting around eating and drinking the days away beneath the beaming sunshine is your ideal trip, then a holiday to Tenerife could well be the perfect destination for you.

    Things to Do

    Whether you’re looking for a beach getaway or city break, Tenerife has something to offer every discerning traveller

    Playa del Duque

    The gloriously soft sand and gently rolling waves are a real taste of paradise on Playa del Duque. Live the high life beneath the bamboo parasols, then saunter up to one of the nearby cafes for refreshments.

    Playa de la Tejita

    With all the exciting hustle and bustle of the island, sometimes it’s great to get away from it all and clear the head with a serene stroll along a quiet beach. If that sounds a bit like you, the long strip of Playa de la Tejita is a top spot.

    Playa Jardin

    An alternative to the snow-white sands that Tenerife is known for, Playa Jardin’s combo of black sand and tropical plant life provides a banging photo opp, and makes for a lovely place to spend the day basking in sunshine.

    Playa de las Terisitas

    Lined with palm trees along the eye-poppingly turquoise sea, this is a spot you’ll often see on Tenerife postcards. Get your Instagram game firmly on – there’s no better beach to snap and send home pics for maximum jealousy.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    The main language spoken by locals here is Spanish. However, you’ll never be far from someone who speaks English – particularly in the more touristy areas.

    You can easily visit Tenerife on a fairly tight budget, as the Canary Islands are generally very reasonably priced. Compared to other Spanish destinations like Ibiza or Mallorca, Tenerife is not considered expensive.

    Much of the tourist activity (and the picturesque beaches) in Tenerife are towards the south, so this is where holidaymakers will stay.

    The Tenerife sea is so nice that Ed Sheeran literally wrote a song about it. It’s a nice temperature for swimming all year round, rarely dropping below 19 degrees and warming up in summer.

    The weather is best between June and September in Tenerife, so this summer period is the best time to head there. However, jetting off on either side of the UK summer holidays will mean fewer crowds on the beaches and lower prices for accommodation and flights.

    Tenerife is the so called Island of the eternal spring.

    In the north the temperatures are between 20 – 26°C in the south and around 18°C in winter.

    The history of Tenerife – an interesting story

    Nowadays Tenerife and the other Canary Islands belong to Spain. But Tenerife is hundreds of kilometres away from the Spanish mainland, so it has its own history and past:

    • Tenerife got discovered for the first time approximately in 1100 to 800 B. C.
    • In the 13th century the big countries tried to discover more unknown places by ships. So the sailors also found Tenerife and its natives who lived in a Stone Age culture at this time. Until today, no one knows for sure where the natives came from but there are many theories. The natives are called Guanchen and lived in tribes. The leader (king/chief) got called Mencey. They lived in a community of shepherds and farmers and also caught fish. On the church square of Candelaria in the south-east of Tenerife you can visit the statues of the Mencey’s.
    • Today Tenerife is a popular holiday destination during the entire year.

    What belongs to a succeeded & cheap holiday on Tenerife?

    First of all you need a good planning to feel comfortable in your holidays.

    The right accommodation

    • Where do you want to spend your vacation? In the north (the green part of the island) or in the south (the warmer part of the island)?
    • You should also think about the exactly location of your holiday accommodation:

       ➜ Central and close to the sea
       ➜ In a touristic area with night clubs

    Which of your wishes should your accommodation fulfil?

       ➜ Sea view
       ➜ Distance to the next beach

    Why you should take a rental car?

    Tenerife has a size of around 2.050m² and is the biggest of the seven Canary Islands.
    It is difficult to learn about all features of the island during short holidays. Tenerife offers several beautiful beaches, hiking trails, amusement parks and much more…
    By getting a rental car you are more flexible and can explore Tenerife all by your own and however you want.

    • Explore Tenerife with the rental car

    E.g. you could drive on the old coast road and explore the east of Tenerife. This tour takes around 5 hours.

       ➜ You start in the south and take the Autopista del Sur. Take the exit Barranco Hondo behind Candelaria.
       ➜ You drive back to the south on the C-822 which is next to the motorway.
       ➜ When passing Güimar you could take a stop and visit the Pyramides or have lunch in a fish restaurant.
       ➜ You keep driving through Fasnia direction to Chimiche, driving further to Valle de San Lorenzo.
       ➜ Your trip ends in Los Cristianos. Here you can walk along the boardwalk and relax at the beach.

    Of course there are busses that drive from the south to the north and back but having a rental car is much easier and more comfortable. The motorway leads you almost completely around the island. It starts in Adeje, changes near Santa Cruz and goes until Puerto de la Cruz and even a bit further.
    On our website you can search for rental cars (category service).

    Advantage of a rental car

    • You don’t have to follow the bus line time schedule -> and you don’t have to stop several times
    • The gas is quite cheap on Tenerife
    • You can stop „wherever“ you want and enjoy the landscape
    • If you go (grocery) shopping it is easier to transport the goods with a car. Especially when you travel in a group
    • You can plan your activities however you want and you are flexible

    Accommodation and flights are booked. What now?

    When you already have your accommodation, flights and maybe your rental car, you are ready for the planning of the activities.

    • To which beaches do you want to go?
    • Which places do you want to see? Which sights don’t you want to miss?
    • Which kinds of sports would you like to do?

    Tenerife’s beaches and swimming possibilities

    Tenerife has more than 40 beautiful beaches on the entire island. There are all different kind of beaches: smooth sand beaches with white or black sand, some with little rocks or bays. Beaches with many locals and tourists or segregated nudist beaches.

    Here is a list of almost all beaches on Tenerife with a short explanation.

    • Playa las Vistas in Los Cristianos. This beach is very popular by locals and tourists. It is around 850 metre long, has wave-breakers and is good for families with children. At the beach you can rent sun loungers or sun umbrellas.
    • Playa las Teresitas in the north is around 1,5 kilometre long and made artificial with sand from the Sahara. Here are also wave breakers to stop the big and strong waves. The beach is sloping smoothly into the water. The palms around the beach create the perfect beach feeling.
    • Going to a public pool during your vacation on Tenerife? Yes, the seawater swimming pool in Lago Martianez: In this „swimming pool“ are different beautiful pools. In the middle of the biggest pool is an island where you can lie on. If you swim one time around the entire pool, it will take you around 10 min. A cushion for a sun lounger and a sun umbrella are included in the entrance fee. The swimming pool is located next to the sea and you can hear the waves – this is a special feeling. You can’t compare this pool with a public swimming pool in Great Britain!

    Unique on Tenerife!

    National park Teide

    The National park Teide is one of the most famous highlights on Tenerife – a wonderful landscape consisting of a crater and dry lava rivers. This landscape is surrounding the Teide and you can discover it by car.
    There are many viewpoints where you can stop and enjoy the nature.
    The volcano Teide has a size of appr. 3700 metre. You are allowed to drive up to appr. 2350 metres. Here is a little station where you can also park your car.
    The view from here is already amazing. From here the ropeway gets you up to 3555 metre in around 8 minutes.
    There is just a small hall before you walk outside. Please be aware of the colder temperatures.
    If you want to go up to crater of the Teide, you have to walk but first you need a permit. When the weather is good, you have an amazing view of Tenerife and the neighbour islands.

    Some towns you should visit during your holidays on Tenerife:

    • La Laguna is at the foot of the Anaga-mountains. La Laguna is the former capital city of Tenerife. The centre of La Laguna is around 550 metres above sea level. Due to the location, it can be a bit colder compared to Santa Cruz (around 4°C).
      This place has an amazing architecture and beautiful houses, as well as a historical plaza with marble wells and old houses. Some of them got planned in the 15th century. La Laguna got built in the colonial style. So if you walk through the alleyway it feels like you are in the past.
      La Laguna belongs to the UNESCO World Heritage Site and is definitely worth a visit!
    • Garachico is located on the headland in the North of Tenerife, at the foot of the Teide-mountain. In the 17th century, Garachico got destroyed by the volcano but they rebuilt the town on the dried lava. Now here are fancy white houses with red roofs. Due to the lava, there occurred small natural pools where you can refresh. The boardwalk is along the entire town. In the old part of the town you can visit interesting museums and eat in a typical restaurant.
    • Masca is located in the northwest of Tenerife in the Teno-mountains. It is a small mountain village with just a few inhabitants and only one restaurant. In this area they use terrace cultivation and still work in the agriculture. But the young people prefer to live in bigger towns so the agriculture becomes less and less. Masca is still famous for is special food like the Yame-fruit, palm-juice and goat-cheese.
    • Los Gigantes is famous because of the 3 giant cliff coasts „Acantilado de los Gigantes“. The town is located on the south-west coast of Tenerife and the cliff coasts have a size up to 500metre. From the observation desk you have a wonderful view of the Atlantic. Many tours like sailing trips, motorboat trips or whale-watching tours are starting in Los Gigantes.
    • Puerto de la Cruz is a popular town for vacations in the north. Puerto de la Cruz is located in the Orotava-valley and the climate is warm and wet so the plants are growing very well. Even if many tourists visit Puerto de la Cruz it is not a typical touristic city – it kept its charm.  You should take a walk through the town and enjoy the centre of the city, its parks and the great building. There is a reason why parts of Puerto de la Cruz got priced with a cultural meaning.

    Two of the many sight:

    • Astronomical observatory Inzana is located in the national park El Teide, around 2400 metre above sea level on the mountain Inzana. This observatory is an outpost of the observatory on the mainland in Spain. In 1985 the observatory Inzana got opened on this place because of the very clean air and the little bit of dust in the atmosphere. Here the make extraordinary photos of the stars and the sky by night. This place has the perfect requirements for an astronomical observatory.
    • The Dragon-tree in Icod del los Vinos: Drago Milenaro is a canary dragon-tree and belongs to the asparagus family. The blossom is rarely to be seen because the tree is just blooming once every 15 years. Drago Milenaro is estimated to be 1000 years old, so it also gets called a living fossil. There are many legends and stories of this old tree. One legend is that the tree has a colourless heart which gets used as medicine. If the heart gets some air, the colour turns red like blood and is called „dragon-blood“ or „dragon-tear“.

    Leisure activities, things to do on Tenerife:

    Tenerife”, you will immediately be offered dozens of photos of a beach with yellow sand and pretty umbrellas. You might think that all the beaches of Tenerife look like this, but this is far from the case. Most of the beaches on the island are made up of black volcanic sand, but there are a few exceptions and the most popular of them is called Teresitas Beach and is located 9 km from the capital of Tenerife, the city of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. At the same time, Teresitas is considered a city beach, and there are no good beaches in the city itself. But it doesn’t matter, because buses run here from Santa Cruz, just 15 minutes and you are already sunbathing.

    The length of Teresitas is one and a half kilometers, which will appeal to lovers of long walks along the ocean, and those who like to sunbathe near the water.

    Where does such amazing yellow sand come from on the volcanic island of Tenerife? Answer: from the Sahara. The thing is that in the 70s of the last century, when it became obvious that tourism would bring financial well-being to the island, it was decided to make the capital’s beach more attractive. And what will make it more attractive than fine golden sand? The nearest place where such sand was – the Sahara desert, by a happy coincidence located across the strait. No sooner said than done. In total, 320 thousand tons of sand were collected and transported to Tenerife by ship. Breakwaters were built to protect the beach from the waves, and beautiful palm trees were planted along the shore to give the resort a more heavenly feel. The enterprise turned out to be a success and now thousands of tourists come to Teresitas a year.

    People are attracted not only by the beautiful and soft sand, but also by the excellent service and reasonable prices. As a result, you get tropical beauty, one and a half kilometers of the perfect beach, delicious cocktails in bars, fragrant paella with seafood in cafes and restaurants, excellent views of the sea and mountains, polite staff and good infrastructure.

    Teresitas beach infrastructure

    The beach has everything you need for a perfect holiday: rental of sunbeds and umbrellas for 2-4 euros per day, fresh water showers and toilets, beach cafes and bars, children’s play areas, sports fields, parking.

    The descent into the water is gentle, and because of the breakwaters there are never big waves, so the beach will be comfortable for families with children.

    How to get to Teresitas beach from Santa Cruz de Tenerife

    Bus number 910 goes from Santa Cruz to the beach. It departs from the Intercambiador Sta.Cruz station, on Avenida Tres de Mayo. The stop is called Las Teresitas. Travel time 15 minutes. The fare is 1.25 euros.

    The best hotels near Teresitas beach

    style. The most significant cathedral in the city is called Church of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary (Iglesia de la Concepción). In the 17th century, the temple was called the Temple of the Holy Cross, which in Spanish sounds like Santa Cruz, hence the name of the city. The second most popular temple is named after Saint Francis of Assisi (Iglesia de San Francisco de Asís). It was built in the Baroque style. Within its walls there is a large collection of religious sculptures, and the most interesting among them is the figure of Señora de las Tribulaciones, made in 1893 years from cornmeal. Legend has it that thanks to this statue, the city got rid of the plague and since then this sculpture has been honored here.
    Of the unusual in the city, there is Masonic Temple (Templo Masónico de Santa Cruz de Tenerife). The building is guarded by four sphinxes, and the All-Seeing Eye is depicted above the entrance.

    The unusual architecture in Santa Cruz de Tenerife begins and perhaps ends at Auditorio de Tenerife (Auditorio de Tenerife). The building vaguely resembles the Sydney Opera House, but smaller and more modest. Chamber and symphony concerts are held here, and the acoustics is considered one of the best in the world. A white building resembling a wave stands on the ocean and is surrounded by palm trees – a great place for evening walks and a great subject for unusual photos.

    The city also has several museums: Archaeological Museum of Nature and Man (Museo de la Naturaleza y el Hombre), Military Museum (Museo Militar Regional de Canarias), Museum of Contemporary Art (Tenerife Espacio de las Artes) and Museum of Fine Arts (Museo Municipal De Bellas Artes). So lovers of cultural life will have something to do.

    The resort town of Las Galletas is 80 km from Santa Cruz de Tenerife and km from Los -Christianos .

Rumor has it that a few centuries ago, a ship wrecked off these coasts, and not just a ship, but one that was carrying sweets. The ship went to the bottom, and sweets were washed ashore.

    Arguably the most popular resort in Tenerife is called Las Americas. It is located 80 km from the island’s capital , Santa Cruz de Tenerife.

    Las Americas is located between two other equally popular resort towns – Los Cristianos and Costa Adeje. Three cities practically merge into one, even a long embankment is laid between them so that you can see all the sights at a walking pace.

    Las Americas offers its guests excellent sandy beaches, delicious seafood in cozy restaurants, long walks along the ocean and high quality service.

    Las Americas beaches

    Most of Tenerife’s beaches consist of black volcanic sand, yellow sand is also found, but this is very rare. Black sand beaches are colorful and unusual in their own way, especially if you remember that every black sand grain is a former volcano. Nevertheless, sometimes you want to add the usual yellowness. Tenerife has a lot to offer lovers of traditional colored sand.

    The most popular beach with golden sand is located near the capital and is called Teresitas. Another such beach is located in the neighboring town of Los Cristianos. Well, the third option is Camison Beach, located in Las Americas.

    The coastline of the Las Americas resort stretches for almost three kilometers and there are many beaches. But not everywhere the water is equally clean, and the sand is soft. We tell where it is better to swim and sunbathe in Las Americas .

    Camison Beach is the best beach in town. On both sides, Camison is surrounded by breakwaters, so there is almost always a calm atmosphere here, and if there are waves, they are smaller than on other beaches. Soft sand, clear water, cute beach cafes, all this awaits you here. There are free umbrellas on the beach and the opportunity to rent a sun lounger (for 5 euros per day). Near the beach there are kiosks selling beach accessories – glasses, swimwear, towels, masks and everything else. There are several playgrounds for children.

    Playa de Troya is another good beach. It is located on the outskirts of the city, but the city is small, so the road here will not take much time. Playa de Troya has fine black sand, clean and very comfortable for relaxing. The beach is fenced with breakwaters, so there are almost no waves here. The entrance to the water is very gentle, which will appeal to families with children. There are usually few people on Troy and it is easy to find a place near the water.
    The beach has good infrastructure: it is clean, there is a rental of sun loungers and umbrellas (5 euros per day), showers with fresh water and toilets are installed, there are several cafes and bars where you can have a snack and refresh yourself.

    Las Americas Beach is not the most popular place to stay, but there are plenty of people here. On the beach of Las Americas, there are often sharp stones and large cobblestones that can injure you, especially in big waves. There is a coral reef under the water that can hurt you. But there are also pluses: fish live in the coral reef, which are interesting to watch with a mask and snorkel.

    If you are going to relax on this beach, it is better to take special shoes for swimming and in general you need to be careful.

    Las Americas Beach is a great place to have a picnic overlooking the ocean, meditate or read a book to the sound of the waves. But for the perfect bathing and even tan, it is better to go to Camison or Troy.

    What to do in the resort of Las Americas

    The first thing the resort is known for is its beaches. lovers come here to dive or snorkel, surf, ride scooters, sunbathe on a snow-white yacht or do yoga to the sound of the surf .

    The next thing to do in the Canary Islands is to explore the local cuisine . Restaurants in Las Americas serve both the traditional paella and the traditional fish dish sancocho canario.

A beautiful promenade connects the cities of Los Cristianos, Las Americas and Costa Adeje, so you can literally walk here for hours and this is one way. Tropical trees are planted along the waterfront, soft music and tempting aromas come from cafes and restaurants, nightclubs await guests where parties continue until the morning, there are beautiful hotels, in general, on the waterfront you will find any resort entertainment that you can think of.

Of the annual events, we note the feast of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mount Carmel, celebrated in the town of Los Cristianos, during which folklore concerts, solemn processions and services are held, and the action of stunning beauty ends with fireworks. Another religious September event celebrated in the city of La Laguna is the Fiestas Santisimo Cristo (in honor of the shrine of the island of Tenerife “Christ of La Laguna”). Only the solemn part was filmed on the video, besides this, colorful concerts and performances take place, and, of course, everything ends with gorgeous fireworks.

    Flight to the Canary Islands

    Usually I don’t buy tickets with transfers less than an hour and a half, but there were no options. The first flight from Madeira to Gran Canaria went according to plan. We flew for an hour and a half on an ATR-72 turboprop aircraft. Then we had a transfer of only 40 minutes. The flight was delayed for another 40 minutes, and the next transfer was only 30 minutes.

    That is, we arrived in Tenerife 10 minutes later than the next flight. I asked the flight attendant what to do. She said they would wait for us! The flight to El Hierro was delayed by 30 minutes and we had fun flying on the same plane with overheated football fans.

    Rented a car

    Rented a car at El Hierro as usual from Pluscar.

    I took a 2 liter Mazda CX-3 automatic for a week for only €139 with full insurance and no blocking on the card. The car is new, mileage 6 thousand. It just flies through the mountains.

    I immediately looked to see if there was a spare wheel. She is not. Spare tire didn’t fit in such a big car! Instead, a mocking do-it-yourself kit of sealant and a pump. Thank you for the pump.

    There was nowhere to stick the phone. The entire dashboard is uneven or skin. I had to glue it directly to the system display. I use magnetic holders that are glued to double-sided tape. After peeling off, no traces remain. In the photo, our map with points around the island in the maps.me application. You can download the points on this page if you click download above the map.

    Our apartment on the edge of the earth for €55 per day

    For a long time Lena and I chose housing on El Hierro. Nothing to choose from. We decided to settle in La Restinga – in the warmest place on the islands. Apartment for a week came out €385 (Page on AirBnB).

    Normal apartment on 2 lines, you can see the ocean a little. The Internet should be, but it does not work. The owner is not very sociable. Met us and no longer responded to messages.

    Cala de Tacorón

    We swam in a natural pool in Tacoron Bay (coordinates). It’s only 10 minutes from La Restinga. The water is tolerable, about 22 degrees in November. There is no beach here, only a stone sunbathing area. But what views around!

    Playa Roja

    At 500 meters there is the so-called Playa Roja beach (coordinates), where you can hardly swim. There is black volcanic sand, the waves completely wash the beach, and it is also difficult to go down to it. But the place is beautiful. Shot from a drone. Find me in the photo:

    Watch the epic drone video:

    Parque Cutural de El Juan

    Museum coordinates. If you are a fan of archaeological excavations, then take a look at this museum in the south of the island.

    Admission is €5. Almost nothing is presented at the exhibition. Mostly photographs of petroglyphs. For €20 you can order an excursion on an off-road vehicle. They take you down to see the petroglyphs live. I didn’t rate the museum because I don’t know much about it.

    Mirador de El Julan

    We are moving along the south coast to the west towards the lighthouse. There is only one road. Viewpoint coordinates (coordinates). Epic lookout, gusty wind blowing my drone. Fresh sea air and aroma of pine needles. View of El Juan Park.

    We turn onto the road following the sign to the Faro de Orchilla lighthouse. On satellite images, I noticed a clear round crater. I wanted to take pictures, but in fact we ended up in an island dump. That’s where tons of plastic bags go. Angry crows circled around, defending their territory. Drone did not dare to launch.

    And on the dumpsters they meanly lie that they recycle 100% of the garbage on the island. Glue a sticker with a flower.

    By the way, this year there was a scandal in Tenerife. On the beaches, brown turbidity appeared in the water, as if the water was blooming. It turned out to be cyanobacteria. According to rumors, they appeared due to a lot of sewage. The Tenerife government should have given instructions to treat all wastewater, but in fact, up to 70% of untreated wastewater is now being dumped into the ocean! Something bad for the environment.

    To complete the drama of the island dump, here’s a goat’s skull.

    Zero meridian

    Let’s not talk about terrible things. On the way to the lighthouse you will see a sign with a brick. We leave the car here and go to a small track for a mile and a half. I didn’t expect it to be so beautiful.

    How I love black craters with yellow bushes and lava rivers.

    I can imagine how hot bright orange lava flows flowed many years ago. The cooled pieces turned black and shimmered a little red. All this flowed into the ocean, turning into a cloud of steam and poisonous gases.

    We travel to the Canary Islands for this kind of scenery. Judging by the photos, it’s no worse than in Iceland, only cheaper and the weather is better.

    The endangered Simon’s lizard (Lagartos Gigantes) is found on the island. This is still a very small specimen, although in size and habits it resembles a small monitor lizard. Previously, they were loved to eat by the local Bimbache natives. By the way, there is a nursery on the island where lizards are bred and released in this part of the island.

    So we reached the prime meridian. In the dark times, before Greenwich, the beginning of the world was counted from here, which is why I call the island of El Hierro the end of the world. Coordinates.

    The coolest observation deck Isora

    Small world. At the observation deck Mirador de Isora we met our readers Andrey and Liana from the Baltics. They traveled to our locations. Lookout coordinates.

    While chatting with them for almost an hour, the sky became overcast and it began to rain. I didn’t manage to take a look. I had to come back the next morning.

    Faro de Orchilla

    Then it makes sense to go along the dirt road to the lighthouse and watch the sunset. Just keep in mind that pluscar insurance does not work on dirt roads, you drive at your own risk. And I flew over the Orchilla volcano. Crater of regular round shape. Lighthouse coordinates.

    The strongest wind was blowing the drone into the ocean, but it was able to capture these amazing shots for you. I think that you can walk on volcanoes, I have not seen any prohibition signs and fences.

    El Sabinar juniper forest

    Having nothing to do, we decided to go again to see the symbol of the island – the curved El Sabinar tree. We were in a cloud, we couldn’t see anything. Coordinates.

    It is unusual to drive in fog. Headlights cut through the milky haze like lasers.

    Lookout La Peña

    Cesar Manrique is known by some as an architect, by others as a sculptor, by others as a designer and painter. But no matter what his works you come across, they are united by one idea – to change our living space, bringing into it harmony between man and nature.

    My favorite place on the island is the stone tower of La Pena (Mirador de La Pena). This is an overview complex of Cesar Manriki with a small botanical garden, a panoramic restaurant and a souvenir shop. From a height of 700 meters you can see the cliffs, the bay and the plain of El Golfo. Lookout coordinates.

    Watch the video from the lookout ?:

    Read my review of the lookouts Manriki designed here.

    Cesar was very sensitive to nature. There is a strong piercing wind in the parking lot, blowing you off your feet, but as soon as you enter the observation deck, the wind calms down. The railings and walkways are laid out in such a way that they hide you from the wind and cold. The warm sun warms, the view of the valley calms.

    Listening to the secret messages of Cesar Manrica, I took the risk of launching a drone at the bottom of the observation deck, where there was no wind. It was only necessary to rise above 50 meters, and the drone flew away in the wind like a leaf. You go down below, and he listens to you again. I filmed these drone dances.

    Café and Restaurant La Peña

    Hot chocolate and Canarian dessert in the clouds. Cesar Manriki knows a lot about observation decks. He chose the most beautiful place on the island of El Hierro and placed a site with a restaurant here. It seems like you are in heaven. According to unverified reports, the restaurant has some kind of Michelin star award, but the prices here are affordable.

    Dessert in the form of a cut starlet is a cheesecake with figs Quesadilla Herreña con higos pasados ​​macerados. Small cookie with a nut – Polvorón casero de almendra típico de El Hierro.

    Geo-Menú Manrique set meal costs about €16. Dishes separately about €10-15. The kitchen is open from 12:30, and at other times the cafe where we sat is open.

    Pozo de las Calcosas

    A small village nestled in volcanic lava is a real open-air museum. Her houses showcase the traditional architecture of El Hierro. For swimming, there is a natural pool and a small backwater, covered from the stormy ocean. Coordinates.

    Lena loves this place. Somehow I’m not very good. You go down the mountain to the ancient slums. Among this devastation is a natural pool. They love to swim naked. The sun is only in the first half of the day. I was able to shoot with a drone during a storm

    The route along the ocean along the frozen lava

    We will walk along an easy but impressive route along the ocean – PR-EH 8.1 Aqua Nueva – Las Puntas. In both directions about 5 km.

    Let’s take a photo with the new La Frontera sign. They put it up recently.

    Let’s go see the former smallest hotel in the world Punta Gradne Hotel, which is listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the smallest in the world. This hotel has only four rooms and a small restaurant. Coordinates of the start of the route from the hotel.

    Near the beautiful pool complex Cascadas Del Mar. In November it was closed.

    Where are we walking today? Roques de Salmor Natural Reserve or Reserva Natural Integral de Rodues de Salmor. It is located in the fishing village of Las Puntas and is a picturesque mountain formations (basalt rocks) towering over the ocean.

    Along the entire route there is a wooden path right along the sharp rocks with solidified lava! The highlight of the route is wooden panoramic observation decks with pavilions.

    There are chairs in the pavilions. Sit and enjoy the surf.

    Lena and I stopped at every lookout. They are located in tricky places with the most spectacular views.

    2 men from Germany are sitting and drinking beer. Here it is happiness. And now it’s snowing at home, frost.

    The 2 km walk went unnoticed. We got from the city of Las Puntas to Aqua Nueva.

    There is parking and a restaurant at both ends of the route. This side bar overlooks the ocean.

    Take a dip in a natural pool if you’re not afraid. La Maceta (Piscinas de la Maceta) – volcanic reservoirs of various sizes are protected from the ocean by an artificial rocky barrier and are filled with clear ocean water at high tide, every 12 hours. La Maceta is considered the main bathing area of ​​the El Golfo Valley.

    You can spend the whole day by the pools: the water here is warm, clear enough that you can see the bases of the rocks. It is safe to swim, especially in contrast to the ocean elements boiling nearby – near the dam. But the waves still poured through the fences.

    It’s time to go back. The way back is no less interesting, it seems to be the same rocks, but from a different angle.

    Arenas Blancas Beach

    After your walk, drive to Arenas Blancas Beach. This is probably the only white sand beach on the island. It’s very secluded, there’s no one there. Between the rocks there are crevices with white sand, where it is convenient to sunbathe in solitude and without wind.

    Like all beaches on the island, this one can hardly be called a beach. Brutal rocky entry into the water. Strong waves. It’s hard to swim without slippers. On the beach we again met our Baltic friends.

    On the tops and volcanoes of the island

    We will walk along a small route about 3 km along the tops of the mountains and the laurel forest. We leave the car here. In the parking lot, collect delicious drinking water from the source. Our route is numbered SL-EH 1.1, then SL-EH 1, then SL-EH 1.2. So it will be more interesting.

    We dive into the forest at the sign Sandero la Llania.

    Sandero la Llania

    In the mossy laurel forest, a large thick tree awaits us. I tell you, the forest is no worse than in Homer or in the north of Tenerife. There are no people at all.

    We go out to a small clearing. There is a lot of greenery around. You can see Montaña de Fuente and Hoya de Fireba volcano.

    Feels like autumn is in the yard. The grass has become completely gray, but it is still hot outside, about 27 degrees!

    Follow the signs for Mirador de Fireba. We climb the mountain, not knowing what’s next.

    And then the crater of the Hoya de Fireba volcano!

    Fly over it with a drone. I had to climb another 300 meters higher so that the huge crater fit into the lens.

    I used to fly a huge and clumsy DJI Phantom 3. I had to carry a huge backpack, where only the drone fit. He flew somehow, filmed terribly. Then he drowned in the Baltic Sea. Decided not to hurt me anymore. A year ago I bought a DJI mavic pro. My joy knew no bounds. Small, foldable, takes up little space, and what a shooting quality. This is the insect I shoot.

    On the way to the next lookout, a small piece of photogenic forest awaits us again. In the heat, it feels cool. In cloudy weather, it stands in the fog, you can take mysterious photos.

    The forest begins to thin. Little pine trees remain. So we are close.

    We turn off the path at the Mirador de Llania sign.

    Mirador de Llania

    Mirador de Llania is also one of the most spectacular lookouts on the island. Read my report on the viewing islands of El Hierro.

    Below us we can see the city and the valley of Fronterra, the chapel of Our Lady of Candelaria on the mountain. Yes, almost the entire North-West of the island. The main thing is to predict the weather without clouds. We waited about 5 days.

    We return to the parking lot through the mysterious forest.

    Leaving the island

    All week we have been driving a wonderful new two-liter Mazda SX-3 automatic. I rented it from Pluscar for only €139 for 7 days. As always, full insurance is included, no prepayment upon ordering and no blocked funds on the card upon receipt.

    We fly to Tenerife on a CanaryFly turboprop. Tickets with luggage cost about €20 per person. Look for such discounted tickets at aviasales or on my special offers website lowcost.pro.

    It was an unforgettable adventure! Everything is organized at a high level: new powerful jet skis, funny guides, instructors, and of course the ocean…. the ocean is not the sea….))
    While skiing we saw 2 flocks of dolphins, one swam close to us. I recommend it for everyone who loves extreme sports and is not afraid to get wet to the skin.

    Perhaps these excursions are also suitable for Tenerife

    How to get BA status – maximising your tier points

    Following on from a recent article on current tier points runs which seemed to generate a lot of interest, I thought it was worth talking about how to maximise tier points. BA currently has a reduced tier points threshold for those that make status by 31 December 2022.

     

    In this post:

    Requirements for status

    Until 31 December 2022 you can renew or upgrade your status for 75% of the usual requirement.

    So this makes the requirements:

    • Bronze: 225 Tier Points or 18 eligible flights
    • Silver: 450 Tier Points or 37 eligible flights (Silver members with renewal dates July-September
      2022 will given a 50% reduction in the amount of tier points needed – from 600 to 300 TPs)
    • Gold: 1125 Tier Points
    • Gold Guest List: 2250 to renew or 3750 to earn it for the first time

    From 1 January 2023, these thresholds will revert to:

    • Bronze: 300 Tier Points or 25 eligible flights

    • Silver: 600 Tier Points or 50 eligible flights

    • Gold: 1500 Tier Points

    • Gold Guest List: 5000 Tier Points to qualify or 3000 to renew

    It is also worth bearing in mind that you will also need a set number of eligible flights on BA to make or renew status. That’s 2 for Bronze and 4 for Silver and Gold.

    These must be:

    • Marketed‘ means the flight will have a BA flight number (in your itinerary or on your ticket).
    • Operated‘ means the aircraft that you travel on is a British Airways aircraft (including franchises and BACityflyer).
    • Marketed and operated by Iberia‘ means the flight will have an IB flight number and the aircraft you travel on is an Iberia aircraft (including franchises).

    Reward bookings and agency or industry discounted bookings are not eligible.

     

    How to earn them

    Tier points are earned on all BA and oneworld flights and BA codeshares. Here are the oneworld airlines you can earn tier points on. 

     

    Note this only applies to cash tickets (including if you use Avios to part pay), but it does not apply to Avios tickets.

    It is a common misperception that you always earn tier points on Aer Lingus (and Vueling) as it is part of IAG. This is not correct as they are not part of oneworld. However, if you book to fly on Aer Lingus on ba.com with a BA codeshare flight number you will get the tier points.

    You also get tier points on other codeshare flights you book through BA with a BA flight number. However, you don’t get the same if you book a codeshare on a oneworld airline for another non-oneworld airline. 

    BA code share partners include:

    • Aer Lingus,
    • airBaltic,
    • Bangkok Airways,
    • China Eastern,
    • Fiji Airways,
    • Kenya Airways,
    • Loganair,
    • Vistara
    • Vueling Airlines

    One exception that people may not know about is if you book a codeshare flight through Qantas for a flight on Emirates, you will receive tier points if you put your BA Executive Club number in the booking.

     

    How many tier points will I earn?

    AA Transcon First

    From the UK, the general tier point rates in business class ONE WAY are:

    • Short haul – 40 
    • Short haul + – 80
    • Long haul (over 2000 miles) – 140
    • Long haul+ – 160

    First class is 210 points each way in long haul. This also applies to the “proper” first class on AA’s 3 class US transcontinental services (not domestic “first”).

    Economy is more complicated as it depends on the fare class you are booked in. You can find this by:

    1. Go to ‘Manage my booking’.
    2. Click on the ‘My booking’ tab.
    3. Click on the flight number link and the same pop-up as shown below will appear.

    During the booking process you can see what you are booking into by clicking on the flight number link  to find out the flight details. You’ll see a pop-up that looks like this, your fare class is shown beside ‘Selling class’.

    It’s worth noting if you pay cash to upgrade, you should get the tier points for the new cabin. It is useful to check upgrade prices online, and at the airport as occasionally, these can be a good value way to earn tier points.

    You can check specific routes using the BA tier point calculator.

     

     

    Maximising tier points

    BA Holidays

    The simplest way to maximise tier points is to book a BA Holiday rather than separate flights and hotels etc. As long as you book a hotel or car hire for a minimum of 5 days with the flights, you get double-tier points providing you travel before 30 September 2023. This only applies to flights from the UK. 

    Note this does not apply if you add the hotel or car afterwards. Don’t worry if it doesn’t show the double tier points next to the booking when you book it. As long as you meet the criteria it will be fine. This has been broken since the original promo launched!

    You can find the promo page here.

     

    Short haul+ in Europe 160 tier points return

    Catania with Mount Etna towering behind it

    There are a number of longer flights in Europe where you get double the normal tier points so that you can make 160 tier points in a return trip in Club Europe. 

    The best way to search for a bargain for these destination is to use BA’s low fare finder to find the cheapest dates and destinations. Sofia tends to be cheapest, although it may not be everyone’s cup of tea. If you want a couple of cheaper destinations with plenty to do I’d recommend Catania or Reykjavik.

    Here is the list of destinations:

    • Algiers (need a visa)
    • Antalya
    • Athens
    • Bucharest
    • Catania
    • Chania
    • Corfu
    • Dalaman 
    • Funchal
    • Gran Canaria
    • Heraklion / Crete
    • Istanbul
    • Kalamata
    • Kefalonia
    • Kos
    • Lanzarote
    • Larnaca
    • Malta
    • Marrakech
    • Mykonos
    • Paphos
    • Ponta Delgada
    • Preveza Lefkada
    • Reykjavik
    • Rhodes
    • Santorini
    • Skiathos
    • Sofia
    • Tenerife
    • Terceira Island
    • Thessaloniki 
    • Tirana

    Mid haul

    BA’s new Club Suite

    Tel Aviv has Club Suites on the route on many flights, so this could be the cheapest way to experience them on a cash ticket from the UK. 

    • Tel Aviv (from £1098 return in Club in the sale)

     

    Transcontinental and 140 tier point routes in the US

    Honolulu, Hawaii. Waikiki beach and Honolulu’s skyline.

    Routes over 2000 miles earn 140 tier points each way in business class (domestic first in US). So if you are flying to the West Coast of the US you can often add in a transfer at New York giving you an extra 280 tier points return for a slightly longer journey. 

    There’s a reason why tier point runners love Hawaii, and it’s not just its lush tropical scenery and stunning beaches! It’s because you can easily get at least 840 tier points return in Club by routing via New York and Los Angeles to Hawaii. Earlier this year, prices from Budapest were only around £1350 return. 

    For comfort, you may want to fly on American’s transcontinental service, which mainly has proper flat bed seats rather than the recliner you get on other routes. 

    These transcon routes are:

    • Los Angeles (LAX) – New York (JFK)
    • San Francisco (SFO) – JFK
    • JFK – Orange County (SNA)
    • LAX – Boston (BOS)
    • LAX – Miami (MIA)

    Other examples of AA routes where you would get 140 tier points are:

    • N. East coast to Seattle, Tuscon, Phoenix, Las Vegas
    • All routes to Hawaii from the mainland US
    • Miami – Las Vegas
    • Los Angeles/Phoenix – Anchorage

    You can use Great Circle Mapper website to check the length of routes. 

     

    Ex EU

    An easy way to add extra tier points and save money is to book to start from somewhere in Europe and then fly back to Heathrow as part of the ticket before continuing on. This will add 80 tier points “free”, but you do need to factor in the positioning flights cost. Currently, Dublin and Budapest have great deals for around £1200-1300 to the US in Club. 

     

    Qatar Airways

    QSuite

    If you are flying eastbound or to Africa, the best way to do this in terms of tier points is with Qatar Airways via Doha. This is because you get two lots of tier points as you route via Doha, so you get a total of 560 tier points versus 280 if you flew with British Airways. Qatar is also a fantastic airline.

    Al Safwa

    The Dubai and Abu Dhabi routes would give you an extra 120 tier points return for the Doha to Dubai part, making it 400 tier points total. This also gives you access to Qatar’s Al Safwa first class lounge as the Dubai route is classes as first class from Doha. There are often cheap deals for this route from Oslo. 

     

    Other tier point maximising routes

    • Malaga or Lisbon to Helsinki with Finnair or vice versa – 280 tier points return in Club Europe (from £500 return)
    • Abu Dhabi to Jakarta via Colombo with Sri Lankan – 560 tier points return in business class (from around £875 return until end of December)

    The best-value holiday destinations for autumn and winter, with beach hotels from £50 and a beer for £1

    Short haul

    Portugal

    October temperatures: 23°C high/15°C low
    Portugal is one of the least expensive countries in western Europe, where the cost of living is significantly lower – as much as 30 per cent less – than the UK. In the Algarve, temperatures are comfortably warm into winter and lively resorts such as Albufeira will have mellowed after a busy summer season. Head west towards Sagres or east to Tavira and things get quieter still. According to the Post Office’s most recent Family Holiday Report, the Algarve represents the best value for money across 13 Eurozone destinations. Self-catering is the sweet spot here – supermarket prices are generally slightly cheaper than the UK, while mains at restaurants will usually give you change from €10 (£8.70).

    Thomas Cook has a week’s self-catering at the Santa Eulália Hotel Apartamento & Spa from £417pp, with Manchester flights on 23 October

    Madeira

    October temperatures: 25°C/19°C
    This Atlantic island is typically a little more expensive to get to than Continental destinations, but prices on the ground are comparable to those on mainland Portugal, sometimes cheaper. For that little bit extra, you get warmer weather, lush landscapes and a great launch point for whale- and dolphin-spotting. Head up into the mountains for mouthwatering espetada kebabs at rustic restaurants that cost around €11 and will fill you up for the rest of the day, providing energy for hiking in the hills.
    Lastminute.com has a week’s B&B at the Pestana Carlton Madeira Premium Ocean Resort from £679pp, with Luton flights on 1 October.

    Malta

    October temperatures: 25°C/17°C
    Malta can be expensive during the summer but prices tumble during the shoulder seasons, with savings of up to 75 per cent. Basing yourself in quieter coastal villages such as Mellieha in the north – from where you can hike to Ghadira Nature Reserve or enjoy the golden sandy beaches – can often mean cheaper accommodation and restaurants, too.
    Mercury Holidays has a week at the Maritim Antonine Hotel and Spa in Mellieha from £230pp, including Luton flights on 31 October

    Travel can be very cheap on Koh Lanta in Thailand (Photo: lechatnoir/Getty Images)

    Greece

    October temperatures: 23C°/15°C
    The Greek capital was recently revealed as Europe’s cheapest city-break destination, according to the Post Office’s annual City Costs Barometer report. With the price of a dozen typical holiday purchases and two nights at a three-star hotel included, the study found that the average bill for a two-night city break in Athens was £207.18. Hiking up to the ruins of the Acropolis, visiting the interactive museum and lounging on one of the 13 sandy beaches of the Athens Riviera will easily fill a weekend. Or, for a low-cost Saturday morning activity, trawl one of the local markets.
    Olympic Holidays offers a seven-night holiday at the Marathon Beach Resort in Nea Makri on the Athens Riviera from £556pp with Gatwick flights on 12 October

    Mid-haul

    Morocco

      With more than 3,000 miles of coastline and 60 islands, it’s no surprise Spain has charming, gorgeous seaside communities and jaw-dropping beaches to spare. In fact, Spain has the most blue flag beaches of any country, a marker for environmental, safety, and quality standards. But every village, city, island, and province also has its own draws, whether it’s the food and drink, the museums, or the festivals. There are dozens of spots to choose from, with universally known metropolises like Barcelona and quaint towns like Cadaqués, but here are 14 of our favorites. Europe may not be on the table for Americans this summer, but you can still whip out your travel journal and start planning your dream vacation to these seaside locales, now.

        Málaga

        Málaga is more than where you fly into before your Andalusian road trip. Once home to Pablo Picasso, the city is a cultural hotspot, and we’re not just talking about the museum dedicated to the legendary artist. For starters, see what’s playing at the Cervantes Theater, a must-stop for national flamenco stars and global ballet legends alike. But it’s not all about what’s happening in the city-center. La Malagueta, the city’s beach, is the place to go for a refreshing mid-afternoon dip, a leisurely stroll, or a delicious meal at one of the many chiringuitos, beachfront restaurants where seafood is grilled right in front of you on glowing hot coals.

        Ibiza Town

        Ibiza’s claim to fame is its status as one of Europe’s most lit places to party, but there’s so much more to Ibiza Town, the Balearic Island’s capital, than raves, 24-hour clubs, and study abroad spring breakers. To start, there’s Dalt Vila, a fortified medieval old town perched on a cliff that offers sweeping views of the Mediterranean Sea atop 16th-century battlements. It’s also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. On the darker side of things, there is an excavated necropolis called Puig des Molins, which can be toured as well.

        Marbella

        On Andalusia’s Costa del Sol, Marbella is known for mega-yachts, supercars, and as a summer hangout for Europe’s aristocracy. But venture a little bit outside of the main tourist strip, and it becomes a whole new town. The labyrinthine Old Town swirls around the central Plaza de los Naranjos, a square named for the orange trees that outline it. On the Avenida del Mar, walk through a collection of sculptures by Salvador Dalí, nonchalantly on on display to the public, and follow the seaside promenade all the way to the neighboring town of San Pedro de Alcántara. That’s the real Marbella—not the glitz and glamor that makes headlines.

        Sitges

        You don’t have to venture far beyond Barcelona’s borders for a less-tread coastal Catalan destination. A 45-minute drive outside the city, Stitges was the heart of Spain’s 1960s counterculture movement and to this day is a hub for artists. Annually, it hosts the Sitgestiu Cultural Festival (live classical and contemporary music of all sorts), an international film festival (horror and fantasy flicks), the Carnaval de Sitges (one of the world’s most vibrant carnival celebrations), and a gay pride extravaganza (the town is famously queer-friendly). It doesn’t hurt that Stiges is blessed with a consistently mild climate, thanks to the shelter of the Garraf Mountains.

        Cadaqués

        On Spain’s easternmost point on the Costa Brava is the remote Mediteranean village Cadaqués, which looks not unlike a sparkling Greek island. “This is a charming white-washed village where Dalí lived with Gala, his wife and muse, for years. The town today is more glamorous than it was decades ago, but not snobby,” says Spain travel specialist Pablo Calvo. “With its vibrant culture and ambiance, and its wild nature and crystal-clear waters, it makes a great base to relax, to eat, to write, and to get lost yourself. ” Indeed, Casa Salvador Dalí is a draw for tourists, an oceanfront abode where the surrealist lived for 50 years—lookout for the large, white sculpted eggs that rest on its roof. Dalí was not the only famous artist to spend time in this town though. Its glimmering blue seas and radiant sunlight served as muse for Picasso, Magritte, and Mattisse as well.

        Tenerife

        Tenerife is the largest of the seven Canary Islands off the northwest coast of Africa. Vacationers have flocked to this volcanic island for years, but astrotourism is the most notable draw today. An astronomical observatory sits on the volcanic peak of Mount Teide, offering stellar views of space given the location’s lack of light pollution. If you’re not keen on the telescope crowd though, never fear. Something of a party place, there’s plenty of day drinking (and night drinking) to at pools, bars, and beaches. The island’s capital, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, has some of the best nightlife options, many of them on Calle Antonio Domínguez Alfonso, including Los Reunidos Tapas y Copas.

        Ribadesella

        The unpolished beauty of Spain’s northern coast is something of an open secret, epitomized by Ribadesella. Besides UNESCO world heritage site Cueva de Tito Bustillo, the Asturias fishing village is also a culinary destination, as the country’s largest cider producer. “For me, Asturias is the ultimate breath of fresh air during the hot Spanish summers,” says Lauren Aloise, the CEO of Spanish food tour company Devour Tours. “It feels worlds away from the hustle and bustle of life in Madrid, and the weather is usually a great temperature [during the summer months].” When it comes to sampling the local cuisine, she recommends visiting a cider house for some shared plates. She often ends up at Sidreria Carroceu for a feast of mussels, sardines with ham, and padrón peppers.

        Nerja

        The placid and picturesque municipality on the Costa del Sol near Spain’s southern tip has a history as rich as any. Its ancient past is evident in its most popular tourist site: a sprawling network of prehistoric limestone caves believed to reach all the way to Grenada. One cave even forms a natural amphitheater and is regularly used for concerts. Other stops include Iglesias El Salvador, a church built in the late 15th century with Moorish-influenced architecture, and the Balcón de Europa, a stunning seaview vantage once used to scope out British invaders and pirates.

        San Sebastián

        If your perfect vacation spot features golden sand beaches, an abundance of Michelin stars, and sweeping mountain views of the sea, then San Sebastián is where you should head next. The Basque Country resort city is home to one of Europe’s favorite urban beaches, La Concha, which looks out at green mountains and has a distinctive seashell-shaped swirl of yellow surf. Surfers also head to rough and wavy Zurriola beach. San Sebastián is much more than a beach bum hang, though. It is one of the world’s food capitals, at one time having 11 Michelin starred restaurants for a population of little more than 180,000. One of the city’s most peculiar customs are gastronomic societies called txokos. They’re clubs in which members assemble to cook, drink, and socialize—and up until recent decades, they were exclusively male. Want an unmissable local dish? Find a piece of creamy Basque cheesecake.

        Vigo

        A half-hour drive from the Portuguese border on the Iberian Peninsula, Vigo is known for its Celtic history, its distinct culture, and its panoramic views. Writer and podcast host Gabrielle Hickmon lived in the surrounding area for a year-and-a-half, teaching English. Working in Vigo schools, she observed the cultural specificity of the autonomous Galicia region, where students learn Galician, Spanish, and English. Locals also celebrate regional holidays, which often have Pagan roots. A must-stop, according to Hickmon, is Monte do Facho: “You can see lots of different towns in Galicia from the view. A friends told me on a clear day you can see all the way to Greece. ” At the site, there is also an ancient Roman sanctuary. Hickmon emphasizes the importance of responsible, respectful travel in regions as unchanged as Galicia, which, while not untouched, has not been spoiled by overtourism.

        Palma

        Palma is the gateway to and capital of Mallorca, the largest of Spain’s Balearic Islands.

So you can soak in that history when you’ve had your fill of sand and surf, while getting lost in the Old Town, a Moorish casbah of winding alleyways and immaculate courtyards.

        Cádiz

        It is the geography of Cádiz that makes it so unique—and beautiful. The oldest continually inhabited city in Spain, it sits on a small strip of land in the southwest, almost entirely surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, and perhaps more than any other coastal town in the country, it fully embraces the sea. Lighthouses and look-out towers dot the cityscape, and the city is built around its port—a lifeline for gaditanos (as locals are known) for thousands of years.

        Barcelona

        The capital of Catalonia is adored for its abundance of Gaudí, its fantastic shopping, its dance clubs, its dreamy, serendipitous narrow streets, and its steamy seafood-laden paella. But it’s also known for its party-studded coastline. Barcelona’s seven beautiful beaches span 2.8 miles and explode with culture. The oldest and most crowded are Sant Sebastià (right by the skyline-dominating W Barcelona hotel), Barceloneta (frenetic at all hours and full of nightlife), and Somorrostro (the birthplace of famed flamenco dancer Carmen).

        Alicante

        More than any other place on this list, Alicante is an ideal destination for those more inclined to plan a beach vacation, without the challenges of more DIY itineraries. A robust tourism infrastructure makes this coastal town on Spain’s southeastern Costa Blanca a breeze for families and bachelorette parties alike. But just because the beach town is dotted with tourist-friendly resorts and restaurants doesn’t make it any less pretty. Need proof? Try a stroll down La Explanada de España, the promenade running parallel to the port, lined with palm trees and made out of 6.5 million marble tiles.

      Costa del Azahar (Costa del Azar, Orange Blossom Coast) – Peniscola, Benicassim, Benicarlo, Oropesa del Mar (famous for its balneological center – spa treatments, etc. ), the main town of Castellon de la Plana. The coast has always been famous for its orange plantations, mild climate and beautiful scenery. Russian tourists are practically unfamiliar, but have long been chosen by the Germans and the British, and this year real estate in Peniscola is of increased interest among the French and Belgians, mainly for the opportunity to combine beach holidays and at the same time be in a calm area, besides, also surrounded by the La Sierra de Irta, while the more popular Costa del Sol, Costa Blanca and Costa Dorada are more like human anthills.

      Costa de Valencia (Costa de Valencia, the name speaks for itself, Valencia Coast) is the capital of the province and community – Valencia, as well as the pearl of the Cuyera coast with the cleanest beaches and Gandia. It is of great communication importance, it is the third city in terms of population in the country, which has its own international airport, seaport (the largest in Spain) and railway station. Direct connection to the Balearic Islands by ferry. The architecture combines the buildings of the Roman Empire, the Arabic style and the modern creations of fashionable European architects (The world-famous architect Santiago Calatrava is a native of Valencia, who built here the City of Arts and Sciences bio-tech complex that strikes with its futuristic forms, which will not leave anyone indifferent Around Valencia – citrus, rice and olive plantations.

And the most famous resorts of the Costa Blanca are Benidorm with its skyscrapers, next to Benidorm there is a huge theme park Terra Mítica (Mythical Land), Alicante, Torrevieja, a village that is densely populated by immigrants from Russia, Denia, Javea and Calpe.

      Costa Cálida (Costa Cálida – Hot Coast) – the capital of the province of Murcia, Mazarron, Cartagena (an ancient city founded in the 3rd century BC). The capital of this small province is the city of Murcia. The main feature of this coast is a large number of Spa-resorts. The cost of real estate will be high in the immediate vicinity of the sea.

      Costa de Almeria (Costa Almeria – Almeria Coast) is located in the province of Andalusia. The main city is Almeria. Not far from the city of the city there are several natural parks. This coast can be described as follows: deserted beaches, volcanic landscapes, sand dunes, undersized palm trees and shrubs. Tourism in this area began to develop relatively recently and has not yet gained momentum. This is a place of calm rest.

      Costa Tropical Then follows a very short coastline – Costa Tropical (Tropical Coast) – the cities of Almuñécar, Motril, etc.). The main city of Granada, located quite far from the sea, accepts students from all over the world to its universities. Despite the fact that this “costa” is one of the hottest summers in Spain, in the depths of the region is the Sierra Nevada mountain range with ski resorts, with the highest peaks in the entire Iberian Peninsula. This is truly a tropical area. Fruits grown here include chirimoya, mango, avocado, passion fruit and guava. Granada is the ancient capital of Andalusia, the last stronghold of the Moors on the Iberian Peninsula.

Here you can relax in Malaga, Ronda, Benalmadena or the most famous Russian tourist resort – Marbella or Marbella, where not only Spanish celebrities and businessmen, but also Hollywood stars, Arab sheikhs and members of royal families rest. The only thing that can upset you is the temperature of the water. Even in summer, it does not warm up more than 24 degrees due to the proximity of the Atlantic Ocean.

      Costa de la Luz Moving along the map towards Portugal, we find the westernmost coast of the Costa de la Luz (Coast of Light) – the southern, not the Mediterranean, but the Atlantic coast of Spain. The main cities are Cadiz and Huelva. It borders with Portugal. Tourists from all over the world come here to the town of Tarifa to go kitesurfing and windsurfing. Trafalgar Bay is located here, in which at the beginning of the 19th century the famous naval battle between the Spanish-French and English fleets took place, which ended in the victory of Admiral Nelson. The waters of the ocean warm up poorly and the swimming season is considered to be shorter. It is impossible not to mention a very important city of winemakers – Jerez de la Frontera, the birthplace of the world-famous sherry (the English version of the city’s name) or sherry. On the same coast is the English territory – Gibraltar.

      We sorted out the peninsula a bit, now by the islands:

      Two hundred kilometers from the coast of Valencia is the archipelago Balearic Islands (Majorca, Menorca, Ibis, Formentera, etc. ). There, as in any part of Spain, there are a number of features that are unique to this region. Rocky shores and small coves, enclosed spaces and beaches where you can fully enjoy the sun – this is the landscape of these islands, which also attract with their opportunities for recreation and entertainment.

      The Canary Islands , located opposite the African coast, 1000 kilometers from the Iberian Peninsula, thanks to their volcanic origin, exceptionally even climate throughout the year and wonderful beaches, represent the opportunity to enjoy all the charms of the sea on any day of any season. Puerto de la Cruz and beaches in the southern part of Tenerife; the beaches of Las Playas del Ingles and Maspalomas on the island of Gran Canaria; Puerto del Carmen on the island of Lanzarote and Corralejo on Fuerteventura are some of the tourist destinations.

      I hope that this note helped you either to determine for yourself a zone on the coast when buying a property, or simply to outline a tourist route for a seaside holiday.

      Where is the best place to relax in Spain. Spain in Russian

      Traditionally, Spain is one of the leading destinations not only in Europe, but also in world tourism – in 2011 alone, about 60 million tourists visited it. However, everyone who comes here has different expectations for the rest. How they are justified and what exactly Spain is good for, you will learn from our brief review.

      Beach holidays in Spain

      Perhaps a beach holiday is the first association associated with a holiday in Spain. Most of the tourists go to the Mediterranean coast. On the southern coast of Spain there are several autonomous communities with their own resorts: Andalusia (with the resorts of Costa de la Luz, Costa del Sol, Costa Tropical and Costa de Almeria), Murcia (Costa Calida), Valencia ( Costa Blanca, Costa de Valencia, Costa del Azaar) and Catalonia (Costa Brava, Costa Dorada, Costa del Garraf and Costa del Maresme).

      The first place in terms of the number of tourists is, without a doubt, Catalonia. This region receives about 30 million travelers a year, and most of them go to Barcelona, ​​which is rich in entertainment and attractions. The beaches of Catalonia are diverse: there are sandy (in Lloret de Mar and Salou, in Girona, Tarragona, Barcelona), pebble, rocky and mixed (for example, a sandy beach and a rocky bottom of the Mar Menuda in Tossa de Mar).

      One of the most popular tourist destinations, the Costa Blanca, is located in the community of Valencia. The most visited cities here are Alicante, Benidorm, Denia, Javea and Torrevieja. The landscapes in this area are varied and attractive. Mostly these are rocks, but in the central part, near the city of Benidorm, there are sandy beaches of Levante and Poniente, sand prevails in the south of this resort area.

      The mountains that stretch across the territory of Murcia form rocky shores. Nevertheless, the beaches of the most famous resort of Costa Calida are covered with fine golden sand. Also in Murcia they like to relax on the salt lake Mar Menor, which the Spaniards call the little sea. Due to the shallow depth of the reservoir, the water in the Mar Menor and in the area of ​​​​the narrow sandy spit of La Manga, connecting it with the Mediterranean Sea, warms up well and contains a lot of iodine and salts.

      The uniqueness of Andalusia lies not only in the length of the coastline (more than 800 km), but also in the fact that its coast is washed by the Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea and Gibraltar at the same time. On the Costa del Sol, the most popular beaches are located in Marbella, Torremolinos and Estepona. The only disadvantage of these places is unpredictable currents, due to which the water can be very cold even in summer. Less popular, but more relaxed resort of Costa de la Luz on the Atlantic coast. The water here is warmer, the entrance is more gentle, and the current is not so intense. The best local beaches are located in the Cadiz city area.

      However, the forty-degree heat of the southern coast is not good for everyone, and many tourists prefer the north of Spain, the so-called “green Spain” region. The coldest part of the country, where nevertheless the temperature is at a comfortable level of + 25? -30? C, is washed by the waters of the Bay of Biscay, which flows into the Atlantic Ocean, and the Cantabrian Mountains protect this part of the country from strong winds. The most popular destinations here are Asturias, Cantabria and Galicia, where there are ideal conditions for windsurfing, skiing, horseback riding and mountain climbing.

      More refined than on the Mediterranean coast, holiday conditions await tourists in the Canary and Balearic Islands. The four Balearic Islands – Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera – are washed by the waters of the Balearic Sea, which is part of the Mediterranean. Most of Mallorca’s beaches are sandy, and lovers of pebbly beaches are attracted by the area of ​​Son Calho. The island of Ibiza, which has the glory of a bustling youth resort, also offers places for family holidays, for example, on the beaches of Talamanca and Cala de Portnat.

      The Canaries’ richest resorts, Los Cristianos and Las Americas, are located in Tenerife. A more relaxed holiday awaits travelers in Puerto de la Cruz, but its rocky coastline does not allow you to fully enjoy a beach holiday. The longest and most deserted sandy beaches are located on the island of Fuerteventura, and for the extraterrestrial volcanic landscape, they usually go to Lanzarote.

      Active holidays in Spain

      Spain’s Sierra Nevada, the “snow range” of Spain, stretches across the territory of Andalusia, on the slopes of which the southernmost ski resort in Europe is located. The entire range, classified as a biosphere reserve, is dominated by a warm Mediterranean climate with a lot of sunny days. The ski resort of Spain Sierra Nevada is located at an altitude of 3000 meters above sea level. Experienced athletes are waiting for the Laguna and Veleta ski slopes, from where you can see the sea coast on a clear day. Professional instructors (400 staff) help beginners get comfortable, and experienced skiers have the opportunity to ski under the starry sky along illuminated night trails. In addition to skiing, people here go ice skating, go to the cinema, visit bars and restaurants – i.e. enjoy all the opportunities offered by the infrastructure of a modern ski resort.

      The waters of the Atlantic Ocean, washing the Canary Islands, seem to be made for windsurfing. Athletes of all levels gather on the northeast coast of Gran Canaria. Experienced windsurfers are attracted by the beaches of Pozo Izquierdo and Vargas, as well as the northern part of the island of Fuerteventura, while beginners usually choose the south coast.

      There are good cycle paths in the Aragonese Pyrenees, the Balearic Islands and the Basque Country. For hiking, the Picos de Europa National Park in Asturias is ideal. And all the seaside resorts in Spain allow you to make a short acquaintance with the underwater world.

      Excursion holidays in Spain

      Acquaintance with the rich and diverse culture of Spain is best to start with museums, of which there are about one and a half thousand in the country. Spain ranks second in the number of World Heritage Sites, second only to Italy, so lovers of attractions in Spain will not have enough holidays.

      Traditionally, not only the most famous and visited cities in Spain, but also the richest cultural and historical monuments are Madrid and Barcelona.

      The largest of the country’s museums is the Madrid Prado, which is visited annually by about 2 million people. Here is a collection of paintings by Spanish (El Greco, Velazquez, Goya), Italian (Caravaggio, Botticelli, Raphael), Flemish (Rubens, Rembrandt, Van Dyck) and other eminent masters.

      Undoubtedly, the main historical and cultural attraction of Barcelona is the Sagrada Familia (Sagrada Familia), an architectural masterpiece by Gaudí and one of the most famous long-term construction projects in the world. If you have time to visit only one attraction in Spain, then it should be the Sagrada Familia.

      Wellness holidays in Spain

      The abundance of spa and wellness centers pleasantly surprises tourists both in seaside and highland areas. Among the most popular are in Galicia, in the village of Arteixo, in Cantabria, as well as in the Basque Country, where, surrounded by mountain peaks, the spa resort of Cestona is surrounded by abundant vegetation.

      There are many thermal complexes on the Mediterranean coast of Spain: in Lloret de Mar, Barcelona, ​​Tarragona, Valencia, Almeria (Andalusia), as well as on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean.

      Spain’s spa resorts use innovative food-based therapies. So, baths filled with wine (wine therapy) are offered here. it has a cleansing and antioxidant effect on the skin, as well as fragrant milk baths that help moisturize and regenerate the layers of the epidermis.

      “Chocolate therapy” is popular here – a cosmetic procedure where cocoa is the main ingredient. This product not only promotes the production of endorphins – hormones of joy, but is also a natural way to relieve stress and help in the fight against cellulite.

      As you can see, Spain is not only beaches, and not only in summer. By choosing the right time and type of vacation for yourself, you can avoid many problems, in particular, meetings with crowds of tourists, as well as significantly save on vacations in the off-season.

      All coasts of Spain

      Spain is a European country located on the Iberian Peninsula. Its territory is divided into 17 autonomous regions and 16 coasts. Let’s take a look at each of them a little.

      Costa Brava is a wild, rocky, rugged coast, a strip of the Mediterranean coast in the northeast of Catalonia, in the province of Girona, part of the Spanish kingdom. The Costa Brava zone includes the territories of the regions of Alt Empordà and Baix Empordà. It extends for 162 km from the city of Blanes to the border with France. To the north of the Costa Brava is the Costa Bermeja, to the south is the Costa del Maresme.

      Costa del Maresme is part of the Balearic Sea south of the Costa Brava. Located in Catalonia, province of Barcelona, ​​Maresme region. It is a long narrow coastal strip with sandy beaches, protected from the northern winds by a coastal mountain range. The Costa del Maresme has traditionally been a place of fishing and peasant settlements, whose inhabitants were engaged in the cultivation of grapes.

      Costa Dorada is a stretch of the Balearic Sea (part of the Mediterranean Sea) in northeastern Spain, stretching for 200 km from Vilanova i la Geltrú in the north to Alcanar in the south of the Ebro Delta. Costa Dorada covers the entire coast of the province of Tarragona. Unlike the Costa Brava located to the north, the Costa Dorada is characterized by long and gently sloping sandy beaches, creating ideal conditions for tourism and recreation.

      Costa del Garraf is the part of the Catalan coast that occupies the coastline of the Garraf region (part of the province of Barcelona). The total length of the coast is 50 km. This is a good place for a comfortable, relaxing holiday, with a rich history, beautiful architecture and diverse nature.

      Costa del Azaar coincides with the coastline of the province of Castellón, bordering the Costa de Valencia and the Costa Dorada. It is also called the “coast of orange flowers”, which appeared due to the numerous orange groves during the Arab rule.

      Costa Blanca – a region on the Mediterranean coast of Spain, which is considered the best place to live and relax, there are more than 320 sunny days a year; mild sunny winters, the average air temperature in winter in the south of the region is +19С°, in summer – +31С°, the water temperature in the sea is +13 С° and +30 С°, respectively. The south of the province of Alicante is distinguished by a special microclimate: from the town of Santa Pola to Orihuela Costa, the Salt Lagoons stretch along the sea, which have a beneficial effect on the weather in this region and on the health of the people living there. Read more here.

      Costa Calida Coast is the Mediterranean coast in Murcia, between the borders with the Autonomous Communities of Valencia and Andalusia. Length – about 250 km. The Costa Cálida is located away from the cold currents of the Mediterranean Sea, and the mountains of the Cordillera Subbetica protect from the cooler weather in winter. For this reason, the average annual temperature of water and air is higher than on most other coasts of Spain. In addition, precipitation falls no more than 340 mm per year, most of it in cold weather. 320 days a year are sunny. Climatic conditions favorable for sea recreation make Murcia one of the centers of tourism in Spain.

      Costa de Almeria (Spanish: Costa de Almeria – “Cote d’Azur”, but another name is also common – “lover of the sun”) – this coast is located in Andalusia and occupies the territory between the Costa del Sol and the Costa -Kalida. The beach season lasts from mid-May to mid-October. Despite the lack of rain, it is not too hot here. The air is cooled by the cool Atlantic current and the Sierra Morena mountains. September is considered the most comfortable month for rest. Due to the lack of lush vegetation and outward resemblance to Texas and Colorado, a huge number of westerns were filmed here (mainly in Almeria and Roquetas de Mar).

      Costa Tropical is part of the province of Granada in the autonomous community of Andalusia. The Costa Tropical, which translates as “Tropical Coast”, is located between the coasts of the Costa de Almeria and the Costa del Sol in the province of Granada. The length of the coastline is more than 100 km from La Herradura in the west to La Rabita in the east.

      Costa del Sol (“Sunny Beach”) is a region of southern Spain, located in the autonomous community of Andalusia and includes the coastal settlements of the province of Malaga. Due to the mild warm climate with an average annual temperature of 19°C The Costa del Sol has gained popularity as a tourist destination in Spain. Once consisting only of a series of small fishing villages, the region was transformed in the middle of the 20th century into a tourist resort of world renown.

      Costa de la Luz (“Coast of Light”) is the coast of the Atlantic Ocean in southwestern Andalusia. The Costa de la Luz is located between the city of Tarifa (Cape Marroca) in the province of Cadiz and the mouth of the Guadiana River (province of Huelva). The Atlantic coast is popular with tourists, both local and foreign, despite the fact that the water temperature is lower and the winds are stronger than in the Spanish Mediterranean resorts. Historically, the Costa de la Luz was known to the Phoenicians, who founded Cadiz in the 11th century BC. uh..

      Coast of Costa Verde , or “green coast” – a region in northern Spain, which includes the coastal settlements of the province of Asturias. The coastline of Asturias is known for its wonderful mountain scenery and abundant vegetation. The length of Costa Verde is 200 km. The climate in Costa Verde differs significantly from the climate in more southern regions. However, due to the influence of the warm surada wind, daytime temperatures in summer can reach +28°C. The mountains protect residents and guests of the coast from sudden temperature changes.

      Costa de Cantabria coincides with the Cantabrian coastline, bordering the Basque Country and Asturias. Its length is 285 km. A huge variety of landscapes – from green meadows and ancient caves with cave paintings, to long beaches and old towns – have turned this region into the most popular resort in northern Spain. The best time to travel to the Costa de Cantabria is in July and August – the average temperature during this period varies between 25°C and 30°C. If you intend to visit the coast in spring or autumn, get ready for a lot of rain.

      Costa Vasca Coast – part of the coast of the Bay of Biscay in the Basque Country (provinces of Biscay and Gipuzkoa) and the department of the Atlantic Pyrenees from the border with Spain in the south to the mouth of the river Adur in the north. To the west of Musques, the Costa Vasca passes into the Costa Verde. North of the Adour is the Silver Coast of France. The coast is mostly rocky, in France the cliffs reach a height of 20-30m, in Spain even higher. The climate is humid maritime.

      The southern coast of Spain Costa del Sol, or the Sunshine Coast – RUTÁGE

      What attracts people who come to the Costa del Sol for the first time? Lots of sun, beautiful sea and wide beaches, flowers all year round, amazingly hospitable people (and we’re not just talking about hotel staff! In the outback people are even more open, it’s a pity they only speak Spanish). Rich history and architecture, good roads. Gastronomy – fish, seafood, fruits and vegetables, jamon and cheese, all locally produced. There are many places for walking – wide embankments, city parks with playgrounds and exercise equipment for sports. Excellent transport network. All this is what you notice from the first steps on the local land.

      And now from the experience of several years of life.

      The highlight in Spain in general and on the Costa del Sol in particular is the quality of life.

      In the annual ranking of Money magazine, Spain is the healthiest country in the world (link to the ranking https://www.money.co.uk/guides/healthiest-places-to-live ). The inhabitants of the Iberian Peninsula follow a Mediterranean diet, consisting of healthy sources of omega-3s, fats and proteins. According to studies, they reduce the risk of dementia, heart disease and cancer, making the country one of the top five in terms of life expectancy.

      The key principles of the Mediterranean diet are convenient meal times, balanced meals, walking instead of driving, and spending more time with family and friends. All this improves mood, promotes the production of endorphins and improves overall well-being.

      Now let’s list the 10 main reasons for relaxing and living on the Costa del Sol

      Lifestyle and attitude towards children

      In Spain they say: Trabajamos para vivir, no vivimos para trabajar which means “we work to live, not live to work”. The cost of living here, by European standards, is moderate, the atmosphere is pleasant, so people live long and with pleasure.

      Another proverb that can be remembered here: “Time for work, but hour for fun.” Spaniards in general take work and business very seriously and responsibly, and although there is a stereotype that they are in no hurry, this is not always true. They are quite meticulous, and work is important to them. But rest is also important to them.

      El Pimpi

      This also applies to siesta – lunch time from 14.00 to 17.00 (which is strictly observed especially in the south), and rest time. No one will stay in the office overtime, during the siesta the phones are simply switched off, and no force majeure can disturb this. And on weekends everyone will rest. A clear gradation of hours of work and rest is one of the basic principles of life.

      Spaniards love spending time with family and friends. Weekends are sacred time, so dinners and lunches are common on weekends with the closest people.

      A special attitude towards children – children are not only loved here, but often idolized. From the very first months, children, along with adults, take part in meetings and going out into the world. Of course, this is largely due to climatic features – in the south it is warm all year round. And you will often see young parents with a baby of several months, or even days of age, who, together with their parents, is in a restaurant or at a local holiday.

      Everyone loves children, they can be coddled by guests sitting at the next table, or even just passing by. And the waiter in the restaurant will not only calm the crying baby, but also treat him to cookies or candy (at the expense of the institution, of course), and sing him a song or even dance. Children grow up as equal members of society, they are little lisped with and from the first days they are called by their full names.

      Great climate

      The south of Spain is a mix of sun, air, water and mountains. Three hundred sunny days a year make it possible to lead a lifestyle in which people spend a lot of time outdoors. Beautiful views of the Mediterranean Sea open from wide embankments, terraces of restaurants and many viewing platforms.

      The coast is separated from the continent by mountains, which creates a unique microclimate and almost complete absence of snow. Of course, there are exceptions – in the last ten years, snow has been seen twice in the mountains – once in Malaga and the second – on the beaches of Fuengirola and Torremolinos. True, he lay at the same time for no more than half an hour, but the pictures instantly appeared in all social networks and local media. At the same time, if you really want snow, then the nearest and most southern ski resort in Europe, the Sierra Nevada, is only one and a half to two hours by car.

      There is no industry on the Costa del Sol, so the air is very clean. And the proximity of the ocean and the winds from that side bring only rains and fogs. The average annual air temperature on the coast is +19, while in summer it is quite rare for thermometers to rise above +32, and in winter they fall below +10.

      The Costa del Sol itself covers about 150 kilometers and stretches from Nerja in the east to Estepona in the west. The ocean coast is about an hour away by car, in the mountains there are forests, hunting, mushrooms. Most of the territory is occupied by national reserves.

      Air traffic and transport network

      The capital of the Costa del Sol is the city of Malaga. Almost 580,000 people live in the city itself, and taking into account the province, the number of inhabitants is more than 1,400,000 people. Malaga has a large international airport located eight kilometers from the city.

      The airport operates flights to 20 cities in Spain, to more than 100 cities in Europe (mostly to the UK), to the Scandinavian countries, to the main cities of Eastern Europe (including Moscow and St. Petersburg), to the countries of North Africa, the Middle East, to North, South and Central America. Another airport is located in Gibraltar, which borders the city of La Linea de Concepcón (province of Cadiz) in Spain and is a territory of the United Kingdom. This airport is connected with the cities of London, Manchester and Bristol.

      In Malaga, there is Maria Zambrano Station , from which you can reach Madrid in just over two hours by high-speed train, which is very convenient for business people. From Malaga, trains also run to Seville, Cordoba and Barcelona.

      As for the tourist infrastructure, there are more than 150 km of beautiful wide beaches with sand and pebbles, wide embankments, an excellent network of roads, many restaurants and cafes for sea lovers. Hotels are represented by five-star complexes, where among the most famous Puente Romano, Los Monteros and Don Pepe Gran Melia in Marbella , Ikos and Las Dunas in Estepona, Anantara Villa Padierna Palace in Venahavis, Gran Hotel Miramar in Malaga.

      Every city on the coast has beautiful city parks. There are botanical gardens in Malaga, Torremolinos and Estepona. The infrastructure is complemented by bike paths, scooters with rental points, and in the mountains there are many hiking trails of light and more difficult severity.

      Sport as a way of life

      The second unofficial name of the Costa del Sol is the Costa del Golf, or Golf Coast. Both of these names are even found on road signs, which speaks of the most serious attitude to golf as a lifestyle on the coast.

      There are more than 70 golf courses on the coast, the best of which are in Marbella, Estepona and Benahavis. This is a huge advantage for the coast, because the season is almost all year round, and many golfers from all over Europe come here both for their holidays and to participate in famous tournaments.

      Within walking distance from the promenade Benalmádena there is Paloma Park , where ducks and swans live on ponds, and ornamental hens and rabbits walk on lawns with grass. Next to the park is Selwo Marina , the only dolphinarium and penguinarium in Andalusia.

      Branch of the Pompidou Center, Malaga

      It has several zones – Arctic ice, Antilles, Amazonia, tropical forest. The landscape has been recreated so skillfully that one can forget that we are on the Costa del Sol. There are also seals, sea lions, crocodiles, snakes, iguanas, fish, turtles, flamingos, parrots and other exotic birds, performances with sea animals and birds are held here.

      The Torremolinos Crocodile Park has more than 300 animals and is home to Europe’s largest crocodile, Big Daddy or Paco, five meters long and weighing about 600 kg. Turtles, emu ostriches also live here, there is an aquarium with fish.

      Selwo Aventura in Estepona is a whole ecosystem where animals live in natural conditions on an area of ​​​​about 100 hectares, and excursions and sightseeing are carried out both on foot and in cars with accompanying persons. Animals from all five continents live here, and the territory is divided into zones: bear gorge, valley route, tiger throat, lion hill, bat cave, reptile enclosure.

      Sea Life in Benalmádena is an interactive aquarium in the port area that simulates being on a submarine. Wooden floors and stairs, portholes on the windows and subdued lights imitate being under water, aquarium staff will let you hold sea cucumbers and stars in your hands, and for thrills you can walk in the gallery under a pond with sharks.

      Selwo Marina

      Antequera is home to Wolf Park , home to about 2000 wolfs from the natural areas of Alaska, Europe and the Iberian Peninsula.

      In Benalmádena pueblo there is Butterfly Park , or Mariposario (from mariposa – butterfly), where about 1500 butterflies, as well as kangaroos, turtles, iguanas, live under the glass roof of a Thai-style building.

      Burro taxi, or donkey taxi in Mijas , will bring a lot of fun to your children. Donkey riding is an essential part of this amazing town, which is easily accessible from anywhere on the coast. Here you can ride horse carriages and visit a chocolate factory.

      In Benalmádena there is a cable car Teleferico that takes you up to the eagle farm and watch the bird of prey show.

      La Bateria Park in Torremolinos is not only a place for walking, there is a lake where boaters can ride.

      Adventure Park Aventura Amazonia is located in Marbella . Here, ropes are stretched between the trees in such a way that aerial ladders, hanging galleries, rappels with insurance and other attractions are made of them.

      There are three water parks and water inflatable parks along the coast, all of which are open during the summer season.

      Interactive entertainment is also worth mentioning – Museum of Music and Imagination in Malaga, Museum of Honey in Colmenara, Museum of Bread in Alhaurina de la Torre, and Huscar in the foothills of Ronda. In 2011, Sony Pictures filmed a film about the Smurfs in this tiny town (in Spain they are called Pitufos ) and painted blue not only the 175 residential buildings of the town, but also the city hall, the church and even the local cemetery. Since then, families with children have come here to walk the streets and take vivid photos with cartoon characters.

      Education for adults and children

      Malaga has its own university where teaching takes place in Spanish, and in Marbella there are universities with teaching in English – a branch of the famous Swiss Le Roche, where specialties in the field of hospitality are taught.

      If you don’t know Spanish but want to learn it or move to the coast in the future, you can go to language schools that offer adult education.

      As for Russian-language education for children, several additional education centers have been opened in the last few years, where children attend classes in Russian, literature, physics, mathematics and foreign languages. On the coast there are Russian-speaking speech therapists, historians, piano teachers, Russian ballet schools and vocal groups, modeling and art schools.

      Several times a year there are recitals of studios and schools, theatrical performances and theme evenings in Russian.

      Real estate investment and European residency

      Over the past two years, the situation with the sale of real estate on the Costa del Sol has changed only for the better – this year the most high-profile sale of the Calligan Villa in the elite residential complex La Zagaleta (Benahavis) took place for 32 million euros.

      Benahavis, Marbella and Estepona make up the so-called “golden triangle”, Sotogrande adjoins them. Here are the most exclusive residential properties in Europe.

      In 1966, Prince Alfonso de Hohenlohe came to Marbella and liked the relaxed atmosphere of the coast so much that he decided to build an Andalusian-style residential complex and a marina. Puerto Banus was built in 1970, and since then this place has become the center of recreation and life of European aristocrats and politicians, movie and sports stars. The way of life here, and throughout the entire Costa del Sol, is called Californian due to both the exact same climate and a similar way of life.

      The luxury home market is booming, and for several reasons. The transition of a huge number of former office workers to remote work creates a logical desire to live in a place with a good climate and infrastructure. The stretch of coastline from Marbella to Sotogrande has a huge selection of luxury properties, with multi-million euro price tags and state-of-the-art design, quality finishes and extra features.

      La Zagaleta, Sierra Blanca and New Golden Mile literally indulge in choice. If earlier the Costa del Sol was preferred by wealthy European pensioners, now millennials have chosen this place. If we add to this a good choice of education for children in English, German and Spanish private schools, then the interest of young families is also understandable. Months of quarantine went online, and now property viewings are held in person, and buyers almost always know what they want.

      It can only be added here that there is a huge selection of housing on the coast and in the middle class segment, you can find a two-bedroom apartment for 142,000 pounds, which is more affordable than in other European countries. There are offers both on the new housing market and among secondary real estate in populated areas.

      As for the methods of obtaining a residence permit, according to the lawyer Oleg Gubarev, it is worth mentioning the three most relevant ones.

      An investor residence permit, or Golden Visa, can be obtained by those who are ready to invest amounts of 500,000 or more euros in real estate, from 1,000,000 or more euros in the banking sector or shares and shares of Spanish companies, from 2,000,000 euros and more in public debt, as well as entrepreneurs with an approved business plan, employees of companies with an annual turnover of more than 50,000,000 euros, employees of companies located outside the European Union posted to Spain. With such a residence permit, all members of the investor’s family can immediately have the right to work.

      Another way to get a residence permit does not give you the opportunity to work, as it is issued on the condition that the whole family has enough funds to live on from income received in another country. To date, the head of the family must have an income of at least 2260 euros per month, and each subsequent family member must have at least 565 euros per month.

      And the third way is to study. To do this, you need to confirm your studies at one of the universities or have a paid agreement with a language school, and there are only a few schools accredited to receive this type of accommodation on the coast.

      Gastronomy

      The Mediterranean diet, which we talked about earlier, is widely represented in local cafes and restaurants. But there are also a whole galaxy of places on the coast where you can taste haute cuisine.

      Six Michelin-starred restaurants on the coast are Skina**, El Lago * and Messina* in Marbella, restaurant José Carlos García * in the port of Malaga, Sollo Restaurante * in Benalmadena, specializing in on dishes with black caviar and sturgeon, and Bardal ** in Ronda.

      Dani Garcia’s only three-star restaurant with the same name was closed a year after receiving the most prestigious award, and now Dani Garcia continues his projects Lobito del Mar in Marbella, Bibo in Marbella, Tarifa, Malaga Airport and Madrid By the way, he is in London.

      And his most famous project La Leña just won the Restaurant & Bar Design Awards for the most beautiful design in the world. This restaurant is located on the territory of the already mentioned hotel Puente Romano , or “Roman bridge”. By the way, on the territory of the restaurant there is indeed a restored bridge, preserved from the era of the Roman Empire, which gives an additional incentive to visit there.

      Let’s also remember Antonio Banderas, who is actively developing projects in Malaga. He is a co-owner of the famous restaurant El Pimpi , in 2019 he opened the restaurant El tercer acto , this summer the project Doña Inés appeared, in September the place La barra de Doña Inés and the new fourth brainchild Atrezzo will soon open.

      And a little about the local. In the province of Malaga, a large number of vegetables and legumes are grown, and the mountains and valleys are strewn with private farms where olives, oranges, lemons, pomegranates, persimmons grow, in the eastern part of Malaga, in the Aksarkia region, mangoes, avocados and other tropical fruits are grown.

      Lanzarote Events and Festivals throughout the year

      January

      Día de Reyes (King’s Day) – 6th January
      The Epiphany is celebrated in Lanzarote like almost everywhere in the Christian world, with this day marking the end of the Christmas celebrations. In several towns, bonfires are lit in memory of those who, according to the legend, set Bethlehem on fire to hide the North Star from the King Herod.
      Traditionally, in Spain, it is on this day that Christmas gifts are given to loved ones, as this was the day when the Three Wise Men gave their offerings to Baby Jesus.

      On this occasion, shops all around the island sell the Kings’ Cake (Roscón de Reyes), which is made with the usual baking ingredients plus lemon and orange juice, brandy and orange flower water, covered with crystallised fruits and sliced almonds. Inside the cake there is always a small gift and a broad bean (tradition says that the person who gets the bean pays for the next cake).

      The day before King’s Day, on 5th January, there is the spectacular Cabalgata de Reyes (Procession of the Three Wise Men) in Arrecife where the Three Wise Men parade through the capital on camels throwing sweets to the children.

      February/March

      Carnival
      Carnival is the most attended celebration on the island, with thousands of people following the parades of floats. Some say that the origins of these festivities are religious, whilst others claim that they date back to pagan times. Exactly when Carnival begins and ends depends on the calendar and changes each year. It is a spectacular affair with outlandish costumes, music, dancing in the streets, drag queen competitions, a Carnival queen contest and performances of the murgas. These are large groups who dress up and perform satirical songs often substituting the lyrics of well-known tunes with their own humorous words to poke fun or make political statements. Then there are the comparsas who dance to the rhythm of samba tunes and the Parranda de los Buches (Arrecife) who have seafaring origins, wear traditional costumes and dance and sing while hitting spectators with dried fish bladders filled with air. In Teguise, you will find the Parranda de los Diabletes, who wear devil masks and ‘terrorise’ children in the streets.

      It ends on, or in some places, after Ash Wednesday with the ‘Burial of the Sardine’, a peculiar ceremony, where men (who usually dress as women) pretend they are actually at the ‘funeral’ of the sardine, cry and mourn the fish before it gets cremated in a huge bonfire, marking the end of the Carnival celebrations.

      March/April

      Semana Santa (Holy Week)
      During the Semana Santa – the week before Easter – you will be able to see solemn pre-Easter processions, where sacred icons and religious statues are carried through the streets of many villages and towns throughout the island.

      May

      Día de la Cruz (Day of the Cross) – 3rd May
      This local fiesta is celebrated in Teguise and Tías, when residents decorate the front doors of their homes with crosses made from flowers.

      Romería de San Isidro – 15th May
      Uga, located in southern Lanzarote, is the stage for the Romería de San Isidro that takes place on 15th May. This festivity features a colourfully decorated procession accompanied by camels (as Uga is where camels are bred and raised) and various folklore performances.

      Ironman Triathlon Competition
      Among the professional competitions held each year in Lanzarote, the Ironman stands out as one of the most important triathlon events in the world. Around eight hundred athletes compete for points for the qualifying race as they attempt to complete a 2.4 miles (3.8 kilometre) swim, 112.5 miles (180 kilometre) bicycle ride and a 26.25 mile (42 kilometre) run, all in one day.
      The race organisation and headquarters are located at Club La Santa on the north coast of the island.
      Although the main event takes place on one day only, the event programme covers a few days, with fun runs, parties and award ceremonies.

      Late May/Early June

      Corpus Christi
      The Corpus Christi celebrations take place in many cities, towns and villages all around the island. Nevertheless, these festivals acquire their greatest splendour in Arrecife. The preparations for this religious event start on early Saturday afternoon, when locals begin the construction of true masterpieces – vast carpets of dyed sea salt, coming from the Salinas de Janubio, embellish streets and squares with lively colours and pretty designs.

      June

      San Juan (Saint John)
      Saint John’s celebrations mark the beginning of summer on the night from the 23rd to the 24th of June. During this night, huge bonfires are traditionally lit all over the island and corncobs are roasted, the festivities being accompanied by folkloric music and dance.

      July

      San Marcial del Rubicón
      San Marcial del Rubicón is the patron saint of the island. During the first week of July it will be possible to see festivals in honour of this saint in several towns and villages, but his image is worshipped in the church that holds his name, located in the village of Femés in the south of Lanzarote.

      Nuestra Señora del Carmen
      The second fortnight of July is filled with the celebrations of the Nuestra Señora del Carmen in almost all villages and towns. Of special note are those happening in Teguise, Lanzarote’s former capital, along the coast of Puerto del Carmen, in Playa Blanca and in the fishermen’s village Caleta del Sebo, which is the main village on the islet of La Graciosa.
      The processions include an image of the Virgin carried in a boat along the coast, accompanied by many decorated fishing boats which set out to sea filled with fishermen who are praying for a good catch in the year to come.
      The fiestas of the Virgen del Carmen also feature many traditional activities, such as lucha canaria (Canarian wrestling), typical folklore performances, street parties and artisan fairs. You will be amazed at the amount of people coming to Teguise for this event to bring their offers to the Virgin.

      August

      San Ginés
      The San Ginés celebrations are held in honour of the patron saint of Arrecife and go on for about a week with the big finale taking place on August 25th. These festivities include parades, processions and dancing in the streets of Arrecife.

      September

      Nuestra Señora de Los Remedios
      This fiesta is held during the first week of September, with a colourful traditional pilgrimage leading to the Los Remedios church in Yaiza.

      Nuestra Señora de Los Dolores
      The legend has it that Nuestra Señora de los Dolores, also known as Virgin of the Volcanoes, was responsible for the salvation of the village of Mancha Blanca when a nearby volcano erupted and lava threatened to destroy everything. Every year residents make a pilgrimage to the church to give thanks to the Virgin for answering their prayers. Celebrations also include spectator sports, competitions and an artisan fair.

      October

      Visual Music Festival
      The Visual Music Festival of Lanzarote is a cultural event of international importance. Organised since 1989 by the Government of Lanzarote together with the tourism department, this festival combines contemporary music with the island’s amazing natural assets.
      The music festival takes place in two auditoriums, located in the volcanic caves of Jameos del Agua and Cueva de los Verdes in the northern part of the island. These are both outstanding sightseeing attractions and extraordinary venues that create a unique experience for both audience and performers.
      Since the beginning of this festival, new venues have been discovered for exceptional concert performances, such as Volcán del Cuervo (the old volcanic ash quarry at Montaña del Tahíche) and the Santo Domingo Convent at Teguise.

      November

      International Running Challenge
      It consists of four races in four consecutive days, in different locations and with different distances, attracting participants from all over Europe. The International Running Challenge is an event whose popularity has increased over the past 20 years. In this race, which takes place in November each year, people run for pleasure but, of course, for the competition itself.

      Atlantic Odyssey
      This is a family event and a favourite! The Atlantic Odyssey is an annual transatlantic boat race which takes place in November and in which participants sail from Lanzarote (or La Palma) to Martinique, in the Caribbean. A maximum of 60 boats crosses the ocean, so as to keep a spirit of interaction and camaraderie.

      December

      Navidad – Christmas Day
      The night before Christmas Day, the 24th at night, is traditionally marked with Misa del Gallo (midnight mass) when many people attend a special service at church. On Christmas Day, families gather together and enjoy a large feast.

      Santos Inocentes
      The 28th of December is the day of the Santos Inocentes (literally ‘Innocent Saints’). This is the Spanish equivalent of April Fools’ Day, celebrated in many countries on 1st April, when tricks are played.

      New Year’s Celebrations
      New Year in Lanzarote is fun, easy-going and tradition-related. On New Year’s Eve, an occasion even more celebrated than Christmas, Lanzaroteños count every stroke of midnight while drinking cava, the local version for champagne, and eating 12 grapes (one for each stroke). As you can imagine, fast eating and drinking at the same time often becomes a truly hilarious experience.

      Best Events in Lanzarote, Canary Islands 2022/2023

      All categoriesEvents In El HierroEvents In FuerteventuraEvents In Gran CanariaEvents In La GomeraEvents In La PalmaEvents In LanzaroteEvents In Tenerife

      All categoriesEvents In ArrecifeEvents In Costa TeguiseEvents In Playa BlancaEvents In Puerto Del Carmen

      The Town Council of Tías announced the celebration of the Summer Craft Show in Puerto del Carmen, which will take place from August 25 to 28, from 6 to 10 p. m., with the participation of 45 artisans.

      The council of Tias usually organizes a celebration for St. Patrick’s Day in Puerto del Carmen every year and it’s a great event that draws a lot of crowds. The resort has celebrated this day every year and everything is organized with the help of the Irish community in Lanzarote.

      Carnival season is a popular time for the Canary Islands in general – all the islands have big parties during this time and it’s a great atmosphere for tourists.

      Arrecife is the capital of Lanzarote and it’s quite a busy town, where not many tourists venture during their holidays. But the carnival in Arrecife is a large and animated event, popular among locals and a great way to experience a night of fiesta among the island’s residents.

      The Mayor of Teguise, Oswaldo Betancort, and the Councilor for Fiestas, Nori Machín, recently presented the contest organized in order to select a poster for the 2022 carnival in Teguise, La Graciosa and Costa Teguise.

      Are you visiting Puerto del Carmen in Lanzarote during the carnival season? If so, then be sure not to miss the carnival which is a beautiful way to experience the local culture and have a bit of fun while you’re on holiday in Lanzarote.

      Each year, on the 5th of January, every municipality and town on the island of Lanzarote welcomes the arrival of the Three Kings from the East.

      Christmas in Puerto del Carmen is very different from the usual holiday at home for most of us. You can still expect temperatures to be in their mid-20s °C and, so it will probably be a sunny holiday.

      Just imagine Halloween day under the beautiful sky of Lanzarote, which stays sunny even at the end of October…

      More than 80 master craftsmen will be present at the opening of the 32nd edition of the Insular Handicraft Fair in Lanzarote (Feria de Artesania Lanzarote).

      One of the first questions people ask when thinking of spending New Year’s Eve in Lanzarote is: what weather can we expect? Do we need a cardigan or coat for the evenings?

      Playa Blanca is the southernmost resort in Lanzarote and probably the most laid back of all. The sunny climate, the beaches and the views make it a great place to spend the winter holidays, especially when back home it’s cold and grey.

      Christmas in Lanzarote is a wonderful experience, with the island all decorated for the holidays and New Year’s. So if you want to escape the cold and have a merry and sunny Christmas, Lanzarote might just be the perfect holiday destination for you.

      For the third time in a row, the town of Teguise will organize a Traditional Carnival, which is meant to preserve and promote the customs of the traditional carnivals which took place in the Canary Islands.

      There are carnivals in Lanzarote in all the resorts and also in Arrecife, the island’s capital, so the festival in Haria is not as huge and impressive in numbers compared to these larger ones.

      Event in Lanzarote September 2019 See the full program below.

      Tinajo City Council and the Festival Committee have organized a series of recreational, cultural, sports, musical and religious activities to commemorate the Fiesta of the Patron Saint of the island Lanzarote, La Virgen De Los Dolores.

      There is much more to Lanzarote than Brits Abroad and English breakfasts. Sure, you’ll find plenty of both, but swerve overdeveloped areas like Playa del Carmen and Costa Teguise, and you’ll find a wild wonderland waiting to be explored and adored. Actually, we take back anything negative said about the Full English; scoff one in the morning and get plenty of energy to explore this marvellous Canary Island, filled with palm-filled towns, gorgeous beaches and delicious fresh fish.

      Lanzarote is often a love letter to the heart and soul of influential artist César Manrique, with many stunning homes and attractions related to the great man. The best things to do in Lanzarote might surprise you.

       Timanfaya National Park

      What is it? Volcanoes! But don’t worry, you won’t have to flee from bubbling lava. The dormant volcanoes haven’t erupted since 1824. Massive eruptions from more than 100 of them, between 1730-36, created the vast basalt landscape that covers around a quarter of the island. It’s now, largely, a national park. 

      Why go? This spectacular moonscape is too dangerous to explore on foot, but a coach tour gives an exciting overview of the sea of lava with 25 craters. At the Montanas del Fuego centre, you can watch guides drop straw into a hole, where it bursts into flame. Dishes are cooked using geothermal heat at the El Diablo restaurant. An alternative, quirky way to explore is in an open-sided electric Twizy car.

      2. César Manrique Foundation: Taro de Tahiche

      What is it? Manrique’s to-die-for home/studio in Las Palmas is built into an old lava flow, with five underground cavern rooms in natural volcanic bubbles, interconnected with tunnels.

      Why go? Unless you’re a millionaire rock star, it’s probably the coolest home you’ll ever step foot in, a blend of volcanic rock, clever architecture and art. Curvy swimming pools set into white terraces surrounded by palms and stunning mid-century furniture are offset by the bubbly black rock walls.

      3. Museo Atlántico

      What is it? Europe’s first underwater sculpture museum, in the sea near Marina Rubicon, features cement figures and sculptures by artist Jason deCaires Taylor, which are slowly being colonised by marine life.

      Why go? Lanzarote is famous for scuba diving, but drifting through thought-provoking sculptures 12-metres down is a whole different experience. Look out for the Raft of Lampedusa, showing a dingy full of refugees.

      4. Natural swimming pools

      What is it? Outdoor sea swimming pools can be found around Lanzarote’s southern and eastern coasts, most natural formations in the rocks, with only steps and ladders added. Others are more built structures but with an opening to the sea.

      Why go? A calmer place to swim than out in the sea proper but wilder than a chlorinated pool, these seaside lidos are often deserted. Do some laps in Los Charcones near Playa Blanca, and Punta Mujeres in the north.

      5. Famara surfing

      What is it? Surfers worldwide are drawn to Famara’s epic beach and reef breaks, but its 5km swathe of sand is a joy even for those who don’t like checking into the green room. The cool little town behind it is full of colourful surf cafes, bars and hostels.

      Why go? Paddle, run its length, or build a sandcastle, then duck into Restaurant El Risco for a delicious fish lunch. Or book a two-day surf course.

      6. Jameos del Agua caves

      What is it? Lanzarote’s most famous artist, César Manrique, gave the island a funkadelic aesthetic, of which this sexy underground location is the crowning glory. A cave system with openings to the sky houses a restaurant, curvy pool, and auditorium with bar seats built into the rocks and ferns cascading from the walls. 

      Why go? Imagine a fantasy party hosted by James Bond, Barbarella and Twiggy in the sixties – this would be the venue, and it will blow your mind. After dark, there are live music and gastronomy events.

      7. Haría

      What is it? The drive up to the hilltop village of Haría might be a bit white-knuckle, but the reward is a super-chilled atmospheric enclave of whitewashed villas, towering palms and tropical plants that feels like some lost Arabic paradise.

      Why go? The exotic vibe here is a world away from the tacky resorts in the south. Visit the Casa de César Manrique, one of the artist’s more homely abodes, in a palm grove. Here you’ll find an enviable haul of bubble chairs, zany textiles and art, plus unfinished work left as it was in his old studio.

      8. Teguise

      What is it? Found in 1402, Teguise is the oldest settlement in the Canaries and was Lanzarote’s capital for 450 years, thanks to its elevated position. It’s full of attractive white buildings, squares and palm trees, with a great Sunday market (top buys: local cheese and leather bags).

      Why go? It’s a charming place for pottering between craft shops and bars. Nearby in Nazaret, you’ll find LagOmar, another Manrique creation. Explore this home built from lava and caves and furnished with bits from shipwrecks, and then pop into the stylish museum restaurant.

      9. Arrieta

      What is it? A small village in the northeast of the island. You’ll find unspoilt white beach Playa de La Garita and a harbour where fishing boats bob. There are lovely places to eat a simple, relaxed lunch.

      Why go? A surprisingly good place to eat is Marisqueria El Charcon, where the harbour juts out into the sea, and there are steps to the water that people fish from. It looks like a bog-standard cheap and cheery caff, with plastic chairs, but does plates of fresh fish and chips that will just make you happy.

      10. Jardín de Cactus

      What is it? A lovely garden full of cacti of every size, shape and variety, laid out like an amphitheatre in an old quarry. Mr Manrique is to thank once again for this ultra-Instagrammable attraction.

      Why go? In the current era of succulent obsession, this could be the coolest, spikiest place on earth, with 4,500 specimens of 450 species thriving in a sun-trap of a dip in the arid landscape. The stylish café/bar sells fresh juices and green-tinged cactus burgers made from prickly pear cactus and potato.

      11.

       El Golfo

      What is it? Where powerful Atlantic breakers pound the western volcanic coast, several paper tablecloth cafés, such as Restaurant Costa Azul, offer ringside seats. Feel the sea spray on your cheeks while devouring fresh fish with Canarian potatoes.

      Why go? It’s invigorating to watch the drama of waves smashing onto the black rocks a few feet away and seabirds soaring above. Prepare to scream when a big wave hits. The jagged rocks at Los Hervideros nearby provide good photo ops.

      Photograph: Courtesy CC/Flickr/Lee Dyer

      12. Marina Rubicon

      What is it? This busy marina full of yachts and seafront cafes on the edge of the southern town of Puerto del Carmen is hugely popular with tourists and worth a trip for duty-free shopping.

      Why go? It may verge on being a tad tacky, despite the upmarket stores, but it’s good fun if you need a retail hit but don’t fancy hitting the big city of Arrecife. Stores behind the seafront sell designer clothing, from the likes of Tommy Hilfiger and Lacoste, for bargain prices.

      Advertising

      13. Playa de Papagao

      What is it? A beach beauty. In fact, seven. A series of pale yellow stretches on a headland in the far south, separated by lava rock. They’re sheltered, with no scary undertows or currents.

      Why go? While other beaches on the island are interesting in their way – Playa del Charco de los Clicos for its black sand, red cliffs and a green lagoon, Playa Chica for its thriving seabeds – this is the go-to spot for soft sand and safe, easy swimming.

        Best places of interest in Lanzarote? Jardín de Cactus, known as Cactus Garden, located in a tiny town of Guatiza (municipality of Costa Teguise) in the north-eastern part of Lanzarote.

        I guess you will not be surprised if we tell you that you will find cactus inside the garden ?. In fact, there are over 1,400 species of these plants! From tiny, measuring just a few centimetres, to some real giants.

        Many of the cactus in the Jardín de Cactus are from the Canary Islands, but there are also few from around the world (including Mexico, Chile or Morocco).

        The whole garden is very well designed. After exploring and taking pictures of the plants, you can relax at the restaurant. You can even try a cactus burger if you fancy ?. Completing your trip to Cactus Garden, you can claim on former windmill from the eighteenth century, which is located just above the restaurant.

The Mirador del Rio viewpoint is located over a cliff (at 475m height) at the very north of the Spanish island of Lanzarote. Mirador del Rio offers one of the best views in Europe – the marvellous panorama covers the neighbouring island of La Graciosa and the breathtaking bay of El Rio.

        The viewpoint on Mirador del Rio was designed by the famous designer of the Canary Islands Cesar Manrique. There is also a souvenir shop and a café-restaurant with an amazing view through its windows. But the real gem is the viewpoint located on the roof of the restaurant – we absolutely loved it!

        Mirador del Rio is a must-visit place while on the island!

        3. Ferry trip to La Graciosa Island

        A must-have on your lanzarote things to do list! The beautiful, unspoilt nature of La Graciosa means it is easily one of the best hidden gems of Lanzarote. Catching a ferry from Orzola to La Graciosa takes just 30 minutes. When you get there, you’ll notice how peaceful it is.

        With no cars on the island, you can wander with ease through the streets of Caleta de Sebo or head to the beach and make the most of the mesmerising crystal-clear waters – whether for adventure or rest, La Graciosa really does offer something for everyone!

        4. Caleton Blanco

        Black lava rocks, turquoise Atlantic water and white sand make Caleton Blanco one of the top spots to visit on Lanzarote.

        It is located in the north part of the island, not far from Órzola, and easily access it by a car after visiting Mirador del Rio. Yes, it is a bit away from everywhere else but well worth the trip! The scenery on the way there is beautiful! It really is one of the best places to visit in Lanzarote.

        You will be impressed with the gorgeous white sand beach when you arrive. The contrast between the black lava stone and the partly very white sand is just stunning! You can even relax in one of the “windburgers”, in case you have to hide from a strong wind ? The surreal landscape and views will definitely make your stay there a few hours!

        With so many activities in Lanzarote, this one is perfect for a little walk.

        6. Dolphin Watching Cruise

        Best stuff to do in Lanzarote? The stunning waters surrounding Lanzarote are home to a diverse collection of marine animals including a variety of dolphins and whales. The beauty of dolphin watching in Lanzarote is that you can spot different species throughout the year.

        The best way to get up close with these amazing creatures is with a dolphin-watching cruise that takes you around the island. With daytime trips with snorkelling or sunset cruises with drinks and canapes, there are lots of options for an unforgettable day out.

        7. Cueva De Los Verdes

        What is there to do in Lanzarote? This lava tube is one of the main tourist attractions on the island of Lanzarote. The tunnel, formed by La Corona Volcano, is one of the longest and probably most interesting in the world. So, all cave-lovers should add this to the bucket list.

        Cueva de Los Verdes can be visited as part of a 1hour guided tour, during which you can learn about the history of Lanzarote and the cave itself.

        8. Jameos del Agua

        Jameos del Agua, a very original cave, was created as a result of the La Corona volcano eruption 3000 thousand years ago. Hot lava made a long tunnel ending up at the bottom of the Atlantic.

        Cesar Manrique, who designed this place, transformed several underground chambers into a huge 600-person auditorium with amazing acoustics. Together with a swimming pool, a tropical garden, an elegant restaurant and a moody nightclub Jameos del Agua became one of the most fascinating attractions on the island is the most-visited place in Lanzarote.  

        There are unique species of albino crab (Munidopsis Polymorpha) in the lake, that occur only in this one place in the world. The crabs are blind and have a white colour. They reach no more than 1 centimetre in length so you have to go closer to the lake’s surface to admire those little crabs.

        In one of the caves (Jameo Grande), a swimming pool with crystal-clear water and a white bottom was created. The view of the contrasting colours of the surrounding area and the water will stimulate your senses. Unfortunately, you are not allowed to swim in both the swimming pool and lake.

        Is Jameos del Agua on your list of the best Lanzarote things to see?

        9. Timanfaya National Park – a journey to the Moon

        Looking for the best place to go in Lanzarote? Head out to this stunning park! Timanfaya National Park, known as Mountains of Fire, is one of the main attractions on Lanzarote. In fact, more than 1.5 million people visit this park every year!

        The park was established in 1974 and covers areas where eruptions took place between the 17th and 19th centuries. Here happened the most important volcanic eruptions in the history of mankind in terms of duration and extent.

        Lanzarote must see: Timanfaya National Park

        After the last explosion (1824) you can still see some geothermal anomaly in the park. Those are now attractions for visitors:

        • You can watch how park employees are pouring water into holes in the ground, causing the geysers to be launched.
        • Or a magic trick – they threw hay in between the rocks which self-lights up.

        Must see Lanzarote: Timanfaya

        There is no way to explore Timanfaya National Park on your own. It is not possible to move around in the rented car or by foot. The only exception is the walking route Ruta del Litoral. The Coastal Route, trail no. 10, is leading from El Golfo to Playa de La Madera. It is 12 km long (one way) and you will need 4 h 30 minutes to complete it – so this is not an option if your time is limited.

        The good news is that you can take the “Ruta de Los Volcanes” by the bus tour. There is no extra charge and the price is included in your €10 entry ticket to the park.

        The volcano trail was designed in 1968 by César Manrique and Jesús Soto and allows you to admire the stunning landscape during a 45min long trip. To be honest, we are not big fans of taking pictures through coach windows, as you always get a reflection. Also, the colour of the glass changes the photos but there is no other option to admire those amazing views. Believe me, it’s still worth it! We have been to a lot of places in Spain and we can’t recommend this park enough.

        Looking for the best on Lanzarote Spain? This is one of the top Lanzarote tourist attractions with stunning views!

        10. El Diablo Restaurant

        In the place called the Hilary Island, there is also the El Diablo restaurant designed by César Manrique. This characteristic building with a round facade perfectly integrated into the surrounding volcanic landscape. Thanks to a glass wall, you can enjoy the panorama of the Mountains of Fire while having your lunch. The restaurant itself is made of volcanic stones which looks fantastic.

        They serve meals roasted on the grill, but not just any… It uses volcanic heat coming out straight from the ground! Would you eat something that was grilled on a volcano?

        What to visit in Lanzarote? El Diablo Restaurant

        11. Camel Ride

        2 kilometres before entering the Timanfaya National Park on the LZ-67 road there is a car park and a small museum.  

        The main attraction here is a 200-meter-long camel tour. The ride takes 15-20 minute while you are sitting on one of the traditional chairs placed on each side of the camel. The Ruta de Camellos, as it’s called, is another way to visit the Timanfaya National Park.

        We didn’t take the ride, as to be honest, we didn’t fancy it after we saw how the park employees were shouting in order to make the camels do what they wanted… But, it’s your call really. The ride will cost you €6 if you decide to do the camel tour.

        Lanzarote best things to do: Camel Ride

        12. Scuba Diving

        What to do on Lanzarote? With an abundance of marine life surrounding the island of Lanzarote and the beautiful crystal-clear waters makes Lanzarote an excellent location for scuba diving. Scuba diving is a year-round activity in Lanzarote.

        Whether it’s your first dive or you’re an experienced diver, there are lots of options available and many dive schools to choose from. As well as spotting the marine life and discovering wreck sites, a must-visit for scuba diving in Lanzarote is the underwater museum which has over 300 underwater sculptures. One of the top things to do in Puerto del Carmen.

        13. Old-Salt Factory

        Las Salinas del Janubio is an impressive natural salt factory located by the coastline in the south of Lanzarote.

        From a viewing point above the salt factory, you can watch the”plots” used to acquire salt. Dozens of clay-stone trusses forming a kind of checkerboard in which the seawater after evaporation leaves a glassy pane of salt.

        Currently, the salt obtained from those plots covers most of the Lanzarote population’s needs for this spice. So, next time when you eat Canarian Potatoes, there is a big chance that the salt, used to prepare them, came from one of the fields you have seen ?

        It really is one of the best sightseeing in Lanzarote!

        Things to see Lanzarote: Old-Salt Factory

        14. Janubio Beach

        This stunning, stretching just over 800 meters, black-sand beach is located just stone’s throw from the Old Salt factory. And it a must-have stop on your way to Los Hervideros! You will have to go off-road to get there, but it shouldn’t take you more than 5-10 minutes.

        It is worth going for a walk on the black beach – the scenery is just breathtaking and you feel like walking on the Moon!

        There is always a red flag present, indicating that bathing on the Janubio Beach is dangerous – the current here is very strong. A lot of people will skip this beach which makes it an ideal spot for all looking for a quieter place on Lanzarote Island. Janubio Beach is one of the most interesting beaches in Lanzarote to visit, its colour reminded us of the famous Reynisfjara beach in Iceland.

        10 best things to do in Lanzarote: Janubio Beach

        If you still ask yourself where to go in Lanzarote? This is a truly unique attraction!

        Lanzarote beautiful places: Janubio Beach

        15. Los Hervideros

        Los Hervideros, known as boiling coast, is a must-visit stop on the LZ-703 road to El Golfo. This viewpoint is a fragment of a rugged shore which was created during volcanic eruptions when huge masses of hot lava met with cool seawater. It is a complex of rocks that have formed into specific labyrinths and amazing caves.

        This free attraction on Lanzarote is really spectacular – a reminder of nature’s power and beauty!

        Best to visit on a windy day when the masses of sea-water flowing into the caves creating beautiful “performance“. All you have to do is just stand and admire this awesome spectacle. It’s one of our favourite and possibly one of the best places to visit in Lanzarote.

        Most of the best places in Lanzarote were created by nature!

        16. Playa Montana Bermeja

        Playa de Montaña Bermeja, at about 400m length, is a bit shorter than the Janubio Beach – but it is also very impressive! It is located on the way to El Golfo so be ready that the car park will be full. But no worries, there will plenty of space.

        The current is very strong on the beach, so you will not be able to take a swim there as it’s highly recommended to not enter the water. But this shouldn’t stop you from visiting Playa Montana Bermeja! You can still have an amazing time on the beach by taking a walk and observing little crabs hiding in the rocks and cliffs. There is also a mini lake, between the sea and the road, which combines with the red mountain & black beach creates spectacular scenery.

        17. Day Trip to Fuerteventura

        Best places to go in Lanzarote while on Canary Island holiday? Enjoy the best of two islands on one trip, with a ferry day trip to Fuerteventura. Fuerteventura offers beautiful white sandy beaches and extensive dunes which is perfect if you want a relaxing beach day in new surroundings.

        As well as the Instagrammable beaches, Fuerteventura is home to lots of water sports. Here you can try your hand at windsurfing or kite surfing! There are several ferries running between the two islands, and the sailing duration takes just 25 minutes.

        18. El Golfo

        Going to Charco de Los Clicos, it is worth to stop in El Golfo. This little town is famous for its beautiful landscape, where white, traditional houses contrast with the dark, volcanic cliffs. You can also try the excellent local cuisine here – there is nothing better than lunch with a sea view ?

        Make sure you park your car at the end of the El Golfo town. So, you can walk and enjoy the stunning coastline – make sure to take a few pictures there.

        We couldn’t forget to add this place to our list of top Lanzarote attractions, could we?

        Activities to do in Lanzarote: El GolfoWhats to do in Lanzarote?

        19. Charco de Los Clicos

        Charco de Los Clicos (Charco Verde) is another place of the most visited tourist attractions on Lanzarote. It is located in Elf Golfo, on the south-west coast of the island. The Green Lagoon, approx. 10 m deep, is a natural lagoon powered by seawater. It was created as a result of the volcano El Golfo in the eighteenth century.

        There is a viewing point which you can reach by foot. From there you will get an impression that you see a lake in the middle of the black beach. But Charco de Los Clicos is not a lake!

        24. Playa de la Cera

        If you are after relaxing things to do in Lanzarote? La Cera beach is located just next to the very popular beach of Playa de Papagayo. It is also one of the six beaches of Papagayo.

        We absolutely loved that golden sandy beach. It is surrounded by many cliffs, which create a spectacular landscape. Where you are on the beach or watching it from the above cliffs – you will love this unspoilt and natural beach.

        What to do Lanzarote? Playa de la CeraDo&see in Lanzarote: Playa de la Cera

        During low tide, you will have the chance to walk from La Cera beach to the other beaches on the northern side. On your way, you will find many small coves tucked between the cliffs – a perfect place to relax.

        If you continue walking you will get to other beaches such as Playa de las Ahogaderas or Playa de las Coloradas.

        It’s worth to mention that the road leading to Playa de la Cera it’s not a concrete road – it’s a dirt road. Its condition is pretty good, but it will take you a bit of time to drive to the car park if you didn’t rent out a 4×4 car.

        25. Papagayo Beach

        Probably the best beach in Lanzarote and one of the most beautiful European beaches! A must-see while visiting Lanzarote Island.

        Papagayo Beach is located in the south of Lanzarote, inside Los Ajaches Natural Park. Since you are entering a protected natural space, there is an entry fee of €3 – luckily for us, the entry was free during Xmas time ?

        Papagayo Beach is one of the most advertised attractions on Lanzarote, so it can get crowded very quickly. Locals say that it used to be a well-kept secret once upon a time… but these days it’s probably one of the most visited beaches on the Island. There are even some organized boat trips to Papagayo Beach.

        WHAT TO SEE

        If someone tells you in secret that there is “nothing to see” in Lanzarote, just smile condescendingly in response. Yes, the fate of the world was not decided here and the wonders of the world were not erected. There are no documented facts of the arrival of UFOs either, although many films have been made about alien planets. Local attractions do not claim the Guinness Book of Records, but they do not complex at all and do not even get upset. This is their special charm, in such a self-sufficient, provincial identity. And in general, the whole island is one big attraction.

        As for entertainment… There are also entertainment. Let not so much, but people come to Lanzarote not to spend time on the slides of the water park or at the casino gaming table. However, there is also a water park and a casino …

      Lanzarote – Manamana

      Los Hervideros

      Lanzarote, my love. An amazing example of how in a lifeless, lava-filled space, without greenery, trees and reservoirs, you can create very comfortable living conditions. The industriousness of the inhabitants of Lanzarote knows no bounds. On my fifth visit to the island, I finally rented a car and felt how comfortable it is to live here. You can drive from end to end of the entire island in an hour and a quarter. There are practically no serpentines, all roads are of excellent quality and all viewing platforms can be reached by car. The cities are small, so everyone can quickly get around on foot. All houses are white and clean. The matter ended with the fact that we moved to live in Lanzarote.

      An artist, sculptor and architect lived and worked in Lanzarote César Manrique . A unique personality, like a sponge, he absorbed all the best and, with the help of close friends, created recognizable projects. Cesar Manrique had his own style and impeccable taste. As Salvador Dali was in love with the rocky coast of Cap de Creus, so Cesar Manrique worshiped the volcanic nature of Lanzarote. He so skillfully inscribed houses and restaurants in black lava flows that it is thanks to Manrique that Lanzarote compares favorably with other Canary Islands.

      Jameos del Agua is the creation of Cesar Manrique. Lush garden with pools and a cave in the shape of a volcanic tube. In the cave there is a reservoir with snow-white crayfish, and on both sides there are restaurants. There is also a performance stage. During the day, tourists come to admire the garden, and in the evening, concerts and festivals are often held here.

      Mirador del Río – designed by Cesar Manrique in 1974. Skillfully inscribed in a 400-meter cliff, an observation deck with a cafe offers a stunning view of the smallest inhabited Canary Island – Graciosa. The Canarians call the river a narrow strait between Lanzarote and Graciosa.

      Jardin de cactus is the latest creation of Cesar Manrique. The garden contains various types of cacti from all over the world, the cafe is decorated with cactus elements, and in the souvenir shop you can buy many gizmos with the symbolism of a prickly plant. The garden is located in the crater of an old volcano, on the site of a quarry for the extraction of rofe – black volcanic sand, which was used for agriculture. The garden is decorated with a windmill and a fountain in the form of a stone monster.

      Monumente al Campesino is another creation of Cesar Manrique. A large sculpture in his style, at the foot of a pretty complex in the form of an old manor. Inside there is a cafe, a two-level restaurant, artisan shops, a tasting room and a gift shop. Nice place.

      If you’ve become interested in César Manrique, , don’t miss his house-museum in the village of Haría. This picturesque green village with a thousand palm trees is located in the north of Lanzarote. The mountains surrounding the village accumulate moisture from the clouds. Right here at 1986 Cesar Manrique mortgaged his new house with a swimming pool, surrounded by a palm garden. 6 years later, Manrique died in an accident leaving his old house in Teguise. He was 73 years old. The house has preserved personal belongings, the workshop – everything, as it was during Manrique’s lifetime.

      Finally, just beyond Arrecife is the Cultural Center Taro de Taíche, Fundación Cesar Manrique. In 1970, the artist discovered a fig tree surrounded by frozen lava flows. He decided to build a house here, at a distance from the villages, among the black plain. The owner of the land did not know its value and simply gave Cesar a plot. During the construction process, five round volcanic caves were discovered, from which Cesar constructed rooms. An ingenious system of corridors-caves, partly painted white and an unchanging pool make this house extremely interesting and unusual. Here are collected the main works of the master, here he lived.
