The mini cruise is an enthusiastic team in search of dolphins. We were able to meet a school of dolphins at sea and this was wonderful. So mission accomplished. In my opinion they could have stayed longer at sea, because we didn’t leave on time because of a few latecomers. The ship drops anchor shortly before the harbor and there is the possibility to swim, this was not necessary for me; but seemed nice for the water rats who want to swim in the sea.

Unfortunately we didnt see any Dolphins but the guide was very entertaining and we still had a good time overall. One thing i would improve is that there either needs to be more time for swimming or none at all. On our tour we only had 20 minutes to get into the water and that really isnt worth getting wet for. Music on the boat was also obnoxious and unnecessary in my opinion.

Even knowing that there was a possibility of not seeing dolphins, we got on board and if we did see them, we would have liked to spend more time near the dolphins and not go to the bathroom, in the end we did not swim because of the uncomfortable situation and the cold it was.

Lobos Island from Lanzarote 🏖️ Prices, Reviews 2022
You will board a speed boat to explore the beautiful Lobos Island and watch the dolphins in the Atlantic Ocean during your excursion. On the island you can refresh yourself with snacks and drinks, swim on pristine beaches, walk around the island.
After your busy tour of the island, it’s time to take the Biosfera Jet back to Puerto del Carmen. On the way back you will have a lot of fun on the boat and again look for dolphins, whales and flying fish.
Puerto del Carmen
Your sailing trip will start from the marina in Puerto del Carmen, where you will board a boat and sail to Lobos Island.
Puerto del Carmen is one of the best tourist resorts located on the island of Lanzarote. It is also known as Puerto Deportivo Puerto del Carmen and specializes in leisure and tourism, welcoming its guests in a pleasant environment on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean. Travelers who reach this marina have access to a wealth of modern amenities and can indulge in their favorite water sports such as windsurfing, deep sea fishing, scuba diving, boat trips. This area is rich in nature and has much to offer both active tourists and those who want to relax and spend a relaxing holiday. It is an active resort where visitors never get bored due to the special atmosphere created by live music concerts, entertainment shows, various competitions and major events.
Biosfera Jet
You will travel to Lobos Island aboard the Biosfera Jet. This is the famous boat that is based in Puerto del Carmen, known as the “fast yellow boat” in Lanzarote. It is incredibly comfortable and so much fun and a day on this boat is definitely an adventure in itself. You will set sail along the coastline, making the long journey to Lobos Island for stunning views and a breeze in your hair as the Bisfera Jet races through the waves in search of wild dolphins and whales.
Lobos Island
Between the coasts of Fuerteventura and Lanzarote, a small island appears where sea lions used to live. A plot of land of 4.5 square kilometers that delights with its incredible volcanic landscapes, heavenly beaches and a seabed full of life and colors. The island got its name from its ancient inhabitants – sea lions.
It is located just 2 kilometers from the far north of Fuerteventura, just 15 minutes by boat, right on the sea channel that separates the islands of Fuerteventura and Lanzarote, the so-called Bocaina Strait, which is at a greater distance, exactly 8 km from the southern coast of Lanzarote.
Lobos Island or the Natural Park of Islote de Lobos is a protected area. As such, its diverse flora and fauna thrive in its volcanic landscape. For them to thrive, tourists must adhere to the paths and places allowed for them. The island may look more like a desert, but it is home to over 130 plant species.
At the end of your fantastic tour of Lobos Island, you will return to Puerto del Carmen and from there you will be taken by bus to your hotel.

(Translated by Google) It is not a simple small shop, it cannot be counted on a large selection of goods, just as there is no wide selection of bakery products. In the downstairs part, there are premium products that I don’t think deserve a premium designation. Due to the above, there is never a crowd, there are usually 1-2 ironers. At least when I come around alone vasaroloo at rest. 🙂

Egyszerű kis bolt, nagy árúvalasztékra nem lehet szamítani, mint ahogy széles valaszték nincs a péktermékekből sem. Az alaksori részen fellelhetőek premium termekek amik velemenyem szerint nem érdemlik meg a prémium megjelölést. A fentiek miatt sosincs tömeg, 1-2 vasárló szokott csupan lenni. Legalabbis amikor betérek kb egyedül vasaroloo nyugiban. 🙂

The world as if for two split,
for windows with blue glass …
“Picnic ”

Shopping is the hardest thing to write about, there is too much information, some of it is out of my head. At first I was alarmed by the fact that the guide somehow left the question about supermarkets in Los Americas. Then it became clear why he did it in order to save tourists money for the excursions he organized. Let’s start with the fact that we found at least 4 large shopping centers within walking distance. Shops, supermarkets, I would not undertake to count.
Let’s start with the fact that there was a mini market in the hotel building, where, in general, there was everything you need. Bread, booze, cuts, etc.
But the first day we found out where the nearest shopping center is located, we moved to it. 20 minutes later we crawled to a large shopping center. Mercadona (shopping center) “Grand Sur” in Los Americas.
Taverns, clothes, toys. In the basement there is a huge grocery supermarket, comparable in size to Auchan. It is not possible to give a complete picture of the prices for everything. I’ll go through the products.
‘, ‘
Under the door of the room, the daughter was frightened by a palm cockroach, Cucaracha. A cockroach was accidentally crushed 🙂
On the way there are small houses of different colors everywhere. These are garbage containers for various garbage.
And here is the first shopping center. Grand Sur. Several floors, many cafes.
Wigs, clothes, toys.
There is a huge grocery store in the basement.
You put it on the scales, you press the picture yourself.
Potato 50 cents.
Large shrimp at 8.5 e per 1 kg.
Eggs 1.95 e for 12 pieces.
The price of rice surprised me a lot – 78 cents per 2 kg. Now it is clear why the Canarians love puelha (pilaf).
And here is a gorgeous wine at 1.7 e per 0.7 liter bottle, bought to try, it turned out to be pink champagne. Tasty wine. Although the guide said something about “barrels being washed”:(
The next day we decided to go to the capital of Tenerife, Santa Cruz. On the way to the bus stop came across these super. The bus ticket cost about 7 euros. Drive about an hour.
We arrived in Santa Cruz at the bus station. There was a large shopping center near the station. We decided to go there to eat.
The cafe is located on the top floor.
The menu is very varied. A dish costs approximately 5 to 10 euros.
When we left the cafeteria, there was already a line at the entrance.
We reached the bottom in three hours. The shopping center swallowed:( These shoes cost 39 euros.
Shopping bag 270 euros:)
You can see the prices for roller skates.
In the basement of the center there is a large shop with magazines.
On the first floor in the pastry department, cakes are not cheap. In general, it was not possible to reach Santa Cruz further than this shopping center.
Los Americas. The next step was the search for a local vegetable market. We showed the market to the taxi driver on the map – he brought us. It turned out to be a local Cherkizon. Clothing market. Tents, rags…
Trousers for 10 euros.
Dress for 10 euros.
An artist will draw you for 5 euros.
And I have already seen these Indians somewhere, judging by the music, but at the end of 1905, they had a party there in the autumn in the square.
But you still had to get into the agro market. We went to the nearest taxi driver and began to explain. Does not understand. The breeder ran up. This one immediately understood where we needed to go. Most of all, I was frightened when the taxi driver taxied to the roundabout around the island, the driver could send us kilometers for 50 euros for 100. But after about ten minutes we stopped at AGROMERCADO ADEJE. I looked at the counter, thank God, only 7 euros.
The small building of the “collective farm” Santa Adeje market is located quite far from the coast. You can’t walk from Los Americas.
The market is small. After a couple of minutes of walking around the market, I felt the gaze of a policeman who was standing at the second exit. My beach bag, with its rolled up mat, clearly stood out in the crowd. I focused and found that there were three policemen. In order not to pull their vigilance, he went out to the opposite exit to smoke. I turned around, they were right there, already at this exit. “We need to take a picture of them on this occasion,” I thought, but when I took out the camera, they had already disappeared.
An assortment that sincerely surprised me one to one assortment of the market near Moscow. Potatoes, onions 1-1.2 e per 1 kg. Potatoes are local, farmers harvest from 4 to 6 crops per year.
The bananas on the market were local, but small and green. Didn’t buy. But the carambolla fruit (star fruit), exotic for the Moscow region, was good, the seller gave me a piece to try. Carambola is grown in Tenerife. 2.5 e per 1 kg. Bought a couple kilos.
Pumpkin 1 e per 1 kg.
Wine, some rags. No meat or honey to be seen. In the corner is a counter with three or four types of cheese. Like a goat, like a local. There is a queue for cheese.
Zucchini 1-1.2 per 1 kg.
There are no taxis at the market, so I had to take a walk.
Next to the market building market, next to it is a large hardware store.
Hardware store similar to Leroy.
Walked down a bit. What do you think this grandiose building is? This is not a shopping center, this is a police station – side view.
People go to the market, as I understand it, in their cars. We found a bus stop, but it was not very clear when and where the bus would go. After 10 minutes they waved their hand, a taxi stopped and after 15 minutes we were already on the beach.
On the way to the hotel, we stopped by a Chinese super-hyper. Very not catchy entrance, on the left under the stairs.
The trading floor, as it seemed to me, goes deep into the mountain. Well done uncle, who travels through these expanses on an electric trolley. Bought a kitchen knife for 95 cents.
View of the hotel from the TF-1 ring road.
The night is coming, the day is coming.
But the Chinese shop is a 10-minute walk from the hotel, judge for yourself shers 5 euros, T-shirt 5-6 euros.
What impressed me the most was the mannequins, they were really “fat”, I have never seen such ones anywhere.
On the mannequin is a swimsuit for 15 euros, for a very voluminous lady. Behind the column, a small shirpotrebovskaya shop, at first glance, sank into the basement – a large trading floor. A very decent large suitcase – 35 euros. There I bought a backpack for 25 euros.
How to choose a hotel in the Canary Islands | Saturday
Now it’s very easy to get to Tenerife: by the Boeing-757 of the Latvian airline airBaltic (a summer charter route made possible in cooperation with the international tour operator TEZ Tour). “Saturday” carefully inspected 45 hotels in Tenerife and came to the conclusion that for almost every Latvian family – with different incomes and holiday wishes – there is a hotel here!
Budget option
Coral Paraiso del Sol 2*, Playa de las Americas.
Despite having only two rating hotel stars, this is a very nice hotel! Firstly, it is located in the very center of the resort – which means that shops, bars, restaurants and discos are nearby. Secondly, the hotel is clean (although without pretensions to luxury), there are vases of flowers on the tables in the restaurant. Friendly staff.
You can buy a package with breakfast (and dinner if you wish), or you can cook yourself, as each room has its own kitchen. Food in Tenerife is cheap, especially seafood.
Cheap but comfortable
Sunprime Coral Suites@ Spa 3*, Playa de las Americas.
Vacation without children.
One of the best (in our opinion) economy class hotels in Tenerife! The rooms are large, beautiful and obviously recently imported furniture, the building has been restored. All rooms with kitchen, bathroom with shower. The balcony is spacious. Swimming pool – with plenty of sun loungers around.
Separate conversation about local cuisine. The food is like in a good restaurant, the menu is not too big, but there are always excellent dishes: tuna steak, salads, excellent ice cream and so on.
Minus one: 800 meters from the ocean, but even a little walk is useful …
Children under 18 are not accepted. The hotel is considered a zone of peace and quiet.
Hovima Jardin Caleta 3*, outskirts of La Caleta.
Suitable for all those who seek silence during their holidays. Absolutely normal food, a comfortable swimming pool, a library, washing machines, entertainment in the evenings (for example, we watched a wonderful bird show in this hotel – eagles and an eagle owl).
Nearby – literally a stone’s throw from the hotel – the ocean, and the first beach is wild, with black volcanic sand. We advise you to buy (in the hotel shop) special slippers for swimming on the pebbly shore. They cost only 7 euros.
There is a bus directly from the hotel to the center of the town (and further around the island); the fare is equivalent to public transport in Riga. A 10-minute walk is the wonderful fish restaurants La Caleta (each will show you exactly where), where for 20 euros for two you can get enough of the finest fresh fish. If you ask, they will show it to you before cooking. There are also amazing squids and octopuses. Any fish is sure to be served with Canarian potatoes, cooked in a special way in salty sea water and usually served with local sauces. Near the restaurant for lovers of gourmet cuisine La Vjeha overlooking the ocean.
Hovima Santa Maria 3*, center of Playa de las Americas.
Five minutes walk to the sea. But the hotel has a nice playground for kids! The rest is similar to Hovima Jardin Caleta 3 * – network.
Sol Sun Beach 3*, a quiet area of the Playa de las Americas resort on the very shore of the ocean, right by the beach!
On the territory of this apart-hotel – a heated pool with a section for children, a buffet restaurant, a bar in the lobby and by the pool, a cafeteria, a TV lounge, a games room.
Sol Princessa Dacil 3*, a family hotel located in Los Cristianos, at the foot of the massive volcano Montaña de Guas, a kilometer away from the center of the resort.
The sandy beach is located 200 m from the hotel.
The sixteen-story building has one buffet restaurant, three bars, two swimming pools for adults, one children’s pool, two shops, and a laundry.
It’s also a themed hotel inspired by the legendary Flintstones!
Traditional Spanish style!
Izabel Family 4*, cottage complex in Costa Adieja
Built in the national Spanish provincial style. Very colorful!
La Fanabe beach – 600 m (10 minutes walk), 50 meters – to the shopping center.
The hotel is exactly four European stars! You live as if in an old provincial town: small streets and squares, lots of greenery and flowers. Two heated pools, one of them for kids.
There is a playground and special playrooms – parents can safely leave their children under the supervision of educators (not for the whole day, of course, but for sure for three hours). Excellent sports ground.
Every evening – entertainment for children, then for adults. In cafes and restaurants, the food is tasty and satisfying. The staff is polite and responsive. The apartments have a well-equipped kitchen (stove, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, refrigerator, dishes, extractor hood), TV (one Russian channel), two sofas in the living room, two beds in the bedroom. By the way, another beautiful beach, El Duc, is a 20-minute walk away.
Strong fours
Melia Jardines del Teide 4*.
Animation during the day. Great pool, green area. Located on a hill, down to the beach by elevator. Nearby is a promenade with restaurants, on the right are golf courses. Recommended for active and family holidays. Near the shopping center.
Luxury hotels
Gran Hotel Bahia del Duque 5*.
According to experienced tourists, one of the most luxurious hotels.
The highest service and equipment of the rooms, superbly thought-out territory and chic restaurants make the rest unforgettable and allow the hotel to be recommended to VIP tourists.
Abama Golf & Spa Resort 5*.
Europe Villa Cortes 5*.
Gran Tacande 5*.
Jardines de Nivaria 5*.
Roca Nivaria Gran Hotel 5*.
Iberostar Grand Hotel El Mirador 5*.
Iberostar Grand Hotel Anthelia 5*.
Grocery prices
We advise you to buy groceries in regular local supermarkets. Alcohol is cheaper than in Riga: martini – 6 euros, wine – from 0.75 (good – 3.5-4 euros). Shrimps (the freshest!) – 4 euros per kg, king – 8 euros per kg!
Renting a car in Tenerife
If you decide to move around the island on your own, you may need a passport (and not always) and a driver’s license as documents. Citroen C-2 coupe (four seats) for seven days – 87.90 euros, Ford Focus (five seats) for seven days – 116. 90 euros. All information is available in Russian on the website www.tenerifeinfo.eu/arenda-avtomobilia-tenerife.

Brief information about Kyiv
The city of Kyiv has a long history, which is represented by both white and dark pages in the annals. The urban settlement received the capital status only in 1991, when the Soviet Union collapsed. A large water artery, the Dnieper, flows through the territory of Kyiv, which divides the capital into two parts: the left bank and the right bank. Today, the population of Kyiv has exceeded 2.8 million people, but despite this, the rhythm of life is very measured and calm. The capital of Ukraine is an important cultural and historical place, so many citizens of European countries and the CIS prefer to spend their holidays here.
Climate in Kyiv
Due to the fact that Kyiv is located in the north of Ukraine, the climate of the city is classified as temperate continental. However, recently there have been sharp changes in weather conditions, which allows us to speak about the predominance of the maritime climate. Winter in the capital is very mild, the maximum negative temperature is recorded in January and can be about 20 degrees below zero. In summer, the region is warm and comfortable – there is no sweltering heat. However, sometimes there are periods when the air warms up to a record 40 degrees above zero.
Sights in Kyiv
Rest in Kyiv will be remembered for a lot of positive emotions and pleasant impressions that tourists will definitely get by visiting the most famous sights. City tours for each person start from different places, someone goes to the Museum of Water to personally see the golden carp, someone embarks on a walk along the Brooklyn Bridge across the Dnieper, and someone remains impressed by visiting Kiev -Pechersk Lavra, which will surprise you with its incredible atmosphere. Recently, most tourists visit Maidan Nezalezhnosti (the main city square), do not miss the opportunity to personally appreciate the grandeur of the construction of the Friendship of Peoples Arch. There is also a beautiful amphitheater and an observation deck that invites guests of the Ukrainian capital to look at the amazing Dnieper. The Landscape Alley, which is a pedestrian area full of various installations, deserves a special mention. This is the place where the people of Kiev like to walk, because here you can plunge into a real fairy tale, but reigned in our time. The Oblique Caponier Fortress will not leave anyone indifferent. The building was erected back in 1844 and played the role of a defensive fortification. However, in the future, the fortress acquired a new status – a strict regime prison, where political prisoners were sent. Incredible cruelty reigned within the walls, so that the state house among the locals was called “Kyiv Shlisselburg”. To date, the prison has ceased to exist, and the Oblique Caponier fortress has been awarded the status of a historical and architectural monument. A museum has been organized on the territory, within which the famous death carriage is installed, which was used as a means of transporting prisoners to the place of execution. Tourism in Kyiv is unimaginable without visiting national places, thanks to which guests can learn more about Ukrainian traditions and features of life. In this regard, the Museum of Folk Architecture and Life of Ukraine stands out. The whole complex is divided into several separate sectors, each of which is dedicated to a certain side of the life of the people of Kiev. Tourists are very interested in the open-air exposition: on the hill there is a whole galaxy of windmills, which have already lost their former appearance due to time. The national village with original huts with thatched roofs is not left without attention. Inside the premises, the interior is recreated, which is beautifully described in the masterpiece of N.V. Gogol “Evenings on a farm near Dikanka”. Handicrafts and kitchen utensils are also presented here.
How to get to Kyiv?
Russia has both rail and air links with Kyiv. You can take a plane to the capital of Ukraine from Sheremetyevo, Domodedovo, Vnukovo. International flights are carried out by Aeroflot, S7, Rossiya, and others. There are also direct rail links between Kyiv and Moscow, Kyiv and St.

Spain. Canary Islands. Part 3. o. La Gomera. Garajonay – Hermigua – Valle Gran Rey – Santa Cruz
We spent the next 2 days of our honeymoon on the island of La Gomera. It was perhaps the most memorable island for us, where we really enjoyed a secluded and non-tourist vacation. The ferry from Los Cristianos brought us to the port and capital of the island – San Sebastian. nine0114
ferry to La Gomera
A – Los Cristianos (Tenerife) B – San Sebastian (La Gomera) C – Hermigua valley D – Vallehermoso E – valley Gran Ray (Hippie Valley) F – La Laguna Grande G – summit of La Gomera H – La Fortaleza viewpoint I – Garajonay National Park – trails J – San Sebastian
island. We did not regret that we stayed on the island for a few days: the atmosphere of unhurriedness, rare tourists and colorful provincial life. We sailed on the ferry along with the car, which we rented at the airport upon arrival in the Canary Islands. And they didn’t fail, since La Gomera has a very poor selection of rental cars: there was a lone Yaris and two Opel Corsas in the Sicar parking lot. You should not count on public transport, according to guidebooks. nine0114
Climbing up the serpentines from the capital of the island, we immediately got to the Garajonay National Park – you definitely won’t pass it, since it is in the very center of the island.
The park is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. Here you will see centuries-old relic forests, laurel trees, rare plants and animals listed in the Red Book. Part of the park is generally closed to the public so that people do not invade this untouched ecosystem. Unfortunately, we had little time for walks and hikes, we spent only a few hours on this. For lovers of trekking, there are a huge number of trails and marked routes that lead to remote villages, waterfalls and, of course, dizzying miradors. nine0114
A corner of the planet, almost untouched by man.
In addition to trekking routes, you can find countless walking trails throughout the park, we chose a few for ourselves and just walked along these trails, enjoying the atmosphere of this island.
A very old chapel built into the rock, dating back to the time of the Crusades
For several million years, the island was free from volcanic activity, which allowed the preservation of ancient vegetation. A very contrasting landscape compared to our next island, which was literally burned out by volcanoes. nine0114
La Gomera is the greenest island of the Canaries. According to tourists who visited in the spring, something incredible is happening here. Everything is immersed in greenery and flowers. But even in August it was very green, compared to the neighboring islands, where volcanoes had recently been atrocious.
Due to the warm and humid climate, there are about 450 species of plants and trees in the park. You can also find plants that grew on our planet even before the onset of the ice age. nine0114
A very rare plant called Bea (Bia), growing only at a certain height, it is strewn with the rocks of the island. Maybe somewhere else there are such, but we meet him for the first time.
Then we went down from the park to the picturesque valley of Hermigua (Hermigua), where our cozy apartments are located.
View from our terrace of the ruins of the old port, the Teide rises in the haze somewhere in the background. nine0114
El Tabayal is a small village in the Hermigua valley. Absolutely not a tourist place and one hundred percent attractive for us. Only locals live here and speak only Spanish, next to it is the only Spar store in the entire valley, which closed at 6 pm, but where you could buy everything you need. Around banana plantations, Spaniards drinking drinks in bars (of which there were also 2 pieces in the district), and clean streets.
We booked an apartment in advance, deciding that for this island it would be the best thing to live in a Spanish house, and we did not lose. It was a real Spanish house with every comfort and a terrace overlooking the valley and the ocean. This is an indescribable experience – after a busy day visiting the island, stock up on groceries, cook a delicious homemade dinner and admire the ocean. Not for advertising purposes, we recommend everyone on booking Casa Maria – the hostess is Spanish, the price is optimal for such conditions 100 euros for 2 days (fresh clean house for 3-4 people and of course with wi-fi). nine0114
View from our terrace to the village of Agulo
On the second day, after waking up and having breakfast, we went on to explore the island. Our itinerary: Valehermoso – Valle Gran Ray (Hippie Valley) – La Laguna Grande – La Fortaleza viewpoint.
Spain has a special relationship with football, it’s not just a favorite pastime since childhood, it’s a kind of cult. Every Spanish school and even a small village has a football field. nine0114
Vallehermoso is the largest area of the island and the most picturesque, landscapes follow each other along the way and in the sunlight it all looks especially colorful.
Wherever we go, the road always passes through Garajonay National Park
Valle Grand Rey or Hippie Valley (was popular among hippies in the 70s) – a picturesque area of the island and the main tourist center, consisting of several coastal villages . Here you can find good beaches, a variety of cafes where you can try local delicacies – palm honey and fried bananas. nine0114
Terraces on the slopes of the valley where the same bananas are grown.
There are many beaches both in the town and further along the coast, which can also be reached by boat or bicycle. Previously, the valley attracted only hippies (the second name is Hippie Valley), a little later artists came here to capture the beauty of these places, as well as climbers who were attracted by the sheer cliffs of the island and, as all guidebooks like to write, lovers of alternative recreation. Now there are a lot of family hotels here and young people who spend time in local clubs and bars. nine0114
In our opinion, a very pleasant place, and probably cozy in the evenings, but we had to go further.
Someone is quietly fishing…
Someone is frolicking… something like a natural paddling pool where kids had fun catching crabs
already a siesta…)))
On the way through the park, there are many special places for stops and picnics and even overnight stays, where you can find everything you need: tables, chairs, trash cans. everything around is clean and civilized: signs and signs for trekking routes in the park. nine0114
In 2012, a large part of the park burned out due to a long fire, the traces of which are still visible.
Burnt forests
It is also worth visiting the cultural center where you can learn a lot about the island and its inhabitants. Guides take all the tourists there and tell all sorts of frightening stories about this place, because before it was a sacred place where the native inhabitants of the island, the Guanches Indians, performed their rituals. nine0199 in La Laguna Grande you can have a bite to eat in a cafe or, as we are, sit comfortably on picnic tables.
The site is located on the site of an ancient lake and in the winter months it is completely flooded with water, and in the rest of the time you can see such buildings of the ancient inhabitants of the island.
Viewpoint on La Fortaleza near the small village of Igualero, whose life is above the clouds.
Monument to Silbo Gonzalez, symbolizing the fingers of the whistler using the whistle language of the Guanche Indians
Leaving the car on the edge of the cliff, we went to admire the surrounding views
The sacred mountain of Guanchi – La Fortaleza 1243m flat top. Having enough time, we recommend taking a walk above the clouds before it. A very picturesque place!
There are traces of last year’s fires everywhere.
After our route led us home through the village of Hermigua, not far from which there is such a remarkable church, which cannot be passed by, since the main road passes exactly through it. nine0114
Our ferry was leaving early the next morning, and we decided to end the day with a trip through the park at night to take pictures of the starry sky. Incidentally, the Canary Islands are a favorite place for stargazing due to their proximity to the equator, high mountains and lack of big city lights. Literally two weeks after our trip, an international astronomical festival started on the neighboring island of La Palma.
Tenerife at night is beautiful. nine0114
The Milky Way.
Somewhere below, under the clouds, the lights of San Sebastian, the capital of the island of La Gomera, shine, and bright stars shine majestically above it.
Although the island is small in length, its roads are continuous serpentines, this must be taken into account when calculating travel time.
By the way, we didn’t really see the capital of the island, paying much attention to the park. San Sebastian is notable for being the last stopover of Columbus and his crew before he discovered America. His arrival on the island is evidenced by many monuments, historical tablets, indicating, for example: “From this well, Columbus replenished his water supplies, setting off to discover America.” Local residents are extremely proud that such a historical person visited them at one time. So if you have time, then you should take a walk around the capital of the island. nine0114
And again the Teide volcano in the morning rays
And a few more words about the island: the locals keep the traditions of the ancient Silbo whistle, known and invented on La Gomera. With it, they transmitted information over many kilometers. In some cafes on the island, visitors are offered to listen to the history of the whistling language and its sound live. Now the language of whistling is a compulsory subject at school. It is also worth trying the local drink Homeron based on palm honey and moonshine, you will be offered it in any institution. nine0199 There are no luxury hotels, parties, as well as traffic and fuss on the island. It is created for moral relaxation and adventure. It was perfect for our honeymoon and we absolutely loved it. Everyone will find something to do, whether it’s climbing mountains, walking along trails, reaching remote villages, meeting dizzying sunrises and sunsets, forgetting about everything and losing track of time on wild beaches, feeling like a part of this nature carefully preserved for us.
Arriving in Tenerife, we immediately left behind Las Americas and Los Cristianos – the most popular resorts among tourists, and went to the capital – Santa Cruz, as we had a few free hours for a walk. We parked the car in the center and just went for a walk along the streets, without guides and maps.
Streets of Santa Cruz0114
While walking we came across the famous food market in Tenerife – the African Lady Market. On its territory there are stalls with fresh vegetables, fruits, meat, sweets (which is not there), cozy cafes and restaurants.
Further our path lay on the island of Lanzarote. You can get to it in two ways, by plane or by ferry (very long). We went straight to the infamous Los Rodeos Airport or otherwise Tenerife North Airport. 27 March 1977 years there was one of the worst plane crashes in the history of mankind. The chronology of events can be easily found on the Internet and history books. Now only a small memorial near the airport reminds of this.
Then our journey continued with a flight to the sun-scorched and eruptive island of Lancerot, which we will tell about in the next part!

Our research is editorially independent but we may earn a commission for purchases made through our links.
Let’s put it this way, the Golden State is not the friendliest place on Earth when it comes to public nudity. There is even a law that prohibits it altogether. Nevertheless, a long and diverse ocean coastline with an abundance of hidden spots has been serving naturists well for decades. The recipe for nude beach enjoyment in California is simple: know where the others go, follow the nudist rules, and have a great time with no clothes on.
The state is graced with a magical shore that offers lots of opportunities to become one with nature. Be aware that the majority of beaches on this list are quite wild and quite undeveloped, making it a truly unfiltered experience to leisure there. So tune yourself into a naked mood and embark on the journey to discover the best nude beaches in California.

Black’s Beach – San Diego
Best Places to Stay
An all-American icon, Black’s Beach is a mecca for all naturism lovers. This sandy stretch surrounded by the high cliffs north of La Jolla is among the largest and most frequented spots for nude bathing in the country. It represents the mighty California ocean coast at its most grandiose offering high waves, comfortable sands, and amazing weather all year round. Whether it’s picnicking, sunbathing, surfing, doing water sports, Black’s Beach is there to provide a stunning nude location. Also, the beach is an illustration of California’s legal conundrums with the southern part belonging to San Diego town and the northern part managed by the California Department of Parks and Recreation. For nudists it means that only the northern part of Black’s Beach is available for nude bathing, the other portion is off-limits. So keep that in mind for an easygoing time there.

Reaching the romantically-named Pirate’s Cove beach near San Luis Obispo is an adventure in its own right. You have to follow a steep hiking trail to find the place but it definitely worth a walk. It’s that secluded, remote location that nudist dreams are made of, full of rocks and superb vistas all around. The beach has two unofficial sections with the naked one found between the sea cave and the natural arch. Be aware that the access is quite difficult so brace yourself for an attentive hike, it’s not a hassle-free Long Beach sunbathing experience. Getting naked in California requires going an extra mile after all.

Best Places to Stay
Somewhat of an open secret of Santa Cruz, this beach has been a safe haven for nudists for many years. Hidden under the residential neighborhood, accessed by the windy path, it’s a fantastic (and quite private) place to spend some time next to the waves naked. Be aware, though, that non-nude beachgoers can come by but the nudity is mostly tolerated and you shouldn’t have any problems. The rule of thumb would be to scan the location before taking the clothes off. If there are other nudists then you’re safe. If you feel like you would be the only one baring it all, probably, it’s time to drive all the way down to Black’s Beach in San Diego to feel really welcomed.

Best Places to Stay
A little southern of Davenport lies Bonny Doon Beach, one of the most scenic coastlines in California. The far end of it is clothing-optional and you can find a diverse nudist crowd there. The beach is wide and glorious, surrounded by nothing but nature and offering larger-than-life ocean vistas. You should be aware that it is not considered as a fully naturist beach so there may be other beachgoers too like families with children, dog walkers, and college students, all clothed. However, problems rarely happen as Bonny Doon is locally renowned as a naked beach and the people coming here are tolerant to nudity in public. Also, keep in mind that the secluded location requires some easy trekking so have comfortable shoes on and be prepared to walk down and up to reach it.
Baker Beach – San Francisco

Baker Beach – San Francisco
Best Places to Stay
Baker Beach is iconic for several reasons. First of all, the view here is unbeatable. The gigantic Golden Gates Bridge is right in front of you in all of its engineering glory. Then, it has some cool history too. The northern part of the beach used to be a spot where the Burning Man festival started. Having used this sandy stretch as a venue from 1986 to 1990, the festival was forced to relocate to Nevada’s Black Rock Desert after a conflict with the local government. But Baker Beach wouldn’t make it to our list if it wasn’t a great stop for nudists. Indeed, this is one of the few places around the Bay area where clothing is optional and nude bathing is tolerated and not interfered with. As the beach is a very popular touristic place, the nudists gather in the northern side of the area where the curious clothed beachgoers don’t venture. Be aware that while Baker is good for lounging, swimming is not advised. So take extra caution when entering the waters, it may be cold and there may be strong currents.
Red Rock Beach – Stinson Beach

If you don’t look for easy ways, Red Rock Beach is a must. Hidden from everything and everyone, it has long enjoyed the status of a concealed paradise for nude bathing aficionados. Here you don’t have to worry about breaking the rules on nudity, it is very hard to reach and far from the tourist sights. Nestled among the high rocks, it is an incredible piece of California ocean wilderness. Just come here when the tide is out and plan beforehand to have the best visiting experience. And yes, the clothes are completely optional, you can profit from the freedom and the ocean breeze.

Best Places to Stay
There are two San Gregorio beaches, a state-owned and a private one. Both are strikingly beautiful but it’s the second that gives you a chance to drop your things and bare everything to the sound of the waves. The parking is for a fee and you need to go north to find the clothing-optional part. You will be rewarded by the expansive sandy beach with towering cliffs and expansive views. Being here feels great and it’s not so far from Silicon Valley so you can use it as a weekend nude getaway. Be aware that the nude part mostly caters to men. Still, the crowd is open and welcoming so if you’re a woman or in a group, you won’t encounter any problems.

Los Angeles nudists need to go somewhere to profit from natural freedom too. As the county doesn’t have any well-known nude beaches, the resorts will come in handy to have an easy time with no judgment and gawking. Desert Sun Resort is among the finest of its kind as well as the largest in Palm Springs. Adults-only, featuring sun almost all year round and boasting a sprawling territory with a swimming pool, tennis courts, and a spa, this complex is a prime nudist destination in California. There it is, a place where you can completely switch off the bustle of the city and drop your clothes to the warm sun rays of the desert. The countless canyon trails are there for you to explore in the vicinity of the resort. You’ll also have a chance to take an aerial tramway to the summit of spectacular Mount San Jacinto (this one with your clothes on) anticipating the nude pool dip afterward.

Baker Beach – Trinidad
Best Places to Stay
This magnificent secluded corner of Trinidad’s coastline will certainly take your breath away. Here the energy is felt first-hand with mighty rocks and powerful waves crashing onto them. Not a beach for swimming, Baker would be a great pick for private nude relaxation. Crowds are almost non-existent and those people who come are either fellow nudists or in-the-know Californians who tolerate the nudity. You can find plenty of places to rewind among the ocean panoramas. Park the car on Scenic drive and be prepared for a moderate hike down to the beach. Another great nude beach in the vicinity of Trinidad is College Cove, north of the city. It’s the southernmost part of the beach that attracts a mostly clothing-optional crowd so be sure to stick to that area for a calm enjoyment.

California’s Best Nude Beaches To Check Out This Summer
In the winter, people always say they look forward to getting a tan, but beach season proves those people to be all talk. Sure, they haul out their blankets and chairs, strip down to their swimsuits, and roast for way longer than the doctor would recommend, but it’s still just a half measure. Most people aren’t getting tans—not really—because they’re keeping parts of their bodies covered up in the name of “decency. ”
That’s why we should turn to the real tanning aficionados. These brave souls confidently shed their clothes—swimsuit included—before the gawking eyes of the entire beach. These people, and the beaches that welcome them, understand what the stuffy, puritanical beachgoers of yesteryear won’t admit. Bare is beautiful. Nude is the future. Unsurprisingly, California is ahead of the curve when it comes to progressive beachgoing. While you can find nude beaches across the US, if you know where to look, nude beaching is a way of life in California like nowhere else. Whether it’s San Diego’s famous Blacks Beach or the more low-key Devil’s Slide Beach in Half-Moon Bay, these are the best nude beaches in California.
Blacks Beach, San Diego
Photo: Alexandre Moraes/Shutterstock
Blacks Beach in La Jolla, San Diego, is one of the most popular nude beaches in California. Accessible via a steep, scenic, and winding trail from Torrey Pines Gliderport, the beach is known not only for nude sunbathing but also for nude sports like volleyball. The whole beach is nudist-optional, though the section north of the trailhead attracts the most nudists. Given its popularity, it tends to get extremely crowded, so if you’re not prepared to bare it all in front of a large crowd for the first time, a more secluded beach may be preferable.
More Mesa Beach, Santa Barbara

In the shadow of the Santa Barbara bluffs, between the USCB campus and Hope Beach, you’ll find the nude Mesa Mesa beach. Follow the pedestrian access path to the grove of eucalyptus trees to reach the beach. Make sure to stay to the north of the trail, as the south is designated for non-nude beachgoers and is often frequented by families. Contrary to the stereotypical perception of nude beaches being filled with octogenarians, this beach’s proximity to USCB means it’s largely popular with college students, making for a younger and more lively feel.
Devil’s Slide Beach, Half Moon Bay
Photo: digidreamgrafix/Shutterstock
Devil’s Slide Beach has it all: towering bluffs, wildlife, and nudity. Sitting under the coastal bluffs, the beach is also known as Gray Whale Beach due to the whales that often swim past in the spring. The waters are also home to great white sharks, however, so take care when entering the ocean. While it might sound like a misnomer for such a beautiful place, the name actually comes from the landslides caused by erosion in the area, making for some pretty impressive geological formations. Take note: Nudity is only permitted on the north end of the beach.
San Gregorio Beach, San Gregorio
Photo: Duilio Farina/Shutterstock
Spanning a massive shoreline in San Mateo County, San Gregorio Beach is home to several sea caves formed by wave erosion. It’s mostly known, however, for its gay scene and as one of the most accepting and inclusive beaches in California. The north end of the beach is the part where nudity is allowed (and encouraged), and even farther north is the most popular with gay beachgoers, but the south part of the beach is clothes-only—so sunbathe accordingly!
2222 Beach, Santa Cruz
2222 Beach has long been an unofficial nude beach and a favorite of Santa Cruz locals. Accessible via a winding path and hidden beneath a residential neighborhood, this beach is a perfectly private place to catch some rays, as there are rarely more than a few dozen people here. In case you’re wondering, the beach’s rather unusual name comes from the street number of the house just across the way.
Bonny Doon Beach, Davenport
Photo: Lynn Yeh/Shutterstock
It might sound like a beach in the Scottish Highlands, but it actually lies at the southern end of Davenport. The wide beach is surrounded by nature and divided into separate coves by tall cliffs. While not officially considered a fully nudist beach (so expect to see some clothed beachgoers), Bonny Doon is a well-known naked beach and broadly tolerant of the practice. So don’t feel shy about stripping down. There’s also an annual gathering of nudists here on New Year’s Day, to ring in the new year with a brisk beach sesh.
Baker Beach, San Francisco

San Francisco is famous for embracing a wide range of lifestyles, and that includes naturism. Apart from its nudist reputation (on the northern side), Baker Beach is also famous for its view of the Golden Gate Bridge, as well as its storied past as the original venue for Burning Man (1986–1990). Thanks to its stunning bridge views, the beach is particularly good for lounging and sunbathing, though strong currents and cold temperatures don’t make for the best swimming conditions.
Deep Creek Hot Springs, San Bernardino

While not technically a beach, you won’t exactly mind when you’re lounging in these restorative, clothing-optional hot springs. There’s a small sandy beach and pools of varying temperatures, from 100 to 105 degrees. The largest pool is big enough for swimming, while the smallest can only accommodate a few people at once, so you might need to get cozy with some nude strangers. You’ll have to tackle a short hike to get to the springs, but the incredible views and soothing pools are worth it. And since the whole area is clothing optional, you can even hike nude…if that’s your thing.

TOP NUDE BEACHES IN CALIFORNIA
CONTENTS
BLACK’S BEACH, SAN DIEGO
Black’s beach, near La Jolla,one of the best California beach towns, is undoubtedly one of the most popular nude beaches in California.
Bordered by craggy rocks with an inclination of 300 feet, Black’s beach flows south to the end at Scripps beach.
The beach, recognised for its nudist beachcombing and activities like volleyball, can be accessed by a lovely, meandering trail from Torrey Pines Gliderport.
Some people could find the trail challenging, especially when dragging all the beach gear up the incline. Thanks to the more convenient detour at South Blacks Beach, close to the intersection of La Jolla Farms Road and Blackgold.
The nude section of the beach starts at the beginning of Mussel Rocks, where you can comfortably drop off your swimsuits.
The North zone is usually crowded and is maintained by the California Department of Parks and Recreation. The South zone is owned by San Diego town, and you are not allowed to go nude in this section of the beach.
Plan for a Sunbathing-Sunday on this nudist beach in California, go surfing if you are an avid surfer, try skimboarding, snorkelling or unwind by the water and take in the soft sand and calming waves.
The beach will usually be occupied on all weekends, mainly with all nudist sports and nude sunbathing.
This place is mainly for the usual nude beachgoers, but if you feel shy, you can still choose to be on this beach in a swimsuit or in an isolated area.
Caution! There are no lifeguards on this beach, so it is advised that you take care of yourself while you are here.
As there are no restaurants on the beach, make sure to bring enough food, drink, and other necessities. There are no restrooms either.
PIRATE’S COVE, AVILA BEACH
Pirate’s Cove beach, also known as Cave Landing or Mallagh Landing, is one of the secluded nude beaches in California close to San Luis Obispo.
The beach got its name as it was one of the locations for Liquor smuggling in the region.
Situated between Shell beach and Avila beach, Pirate Cove beach is protected by towering boulders and often draws more casual crowds.
Drive to Cave Landing Road and look for the signboards in the main parking area near Avila beach drive that will lead you to the main cave.
Alternatively, you may ascend the steep hike maintained by San Luis Obispo County to reach this beautiful clothing-optional California beach and be rewarded with incredible views of the cave and San Luis Bay.
RECOMMENDED – 35 Best Things to Do in San Luis Obispo California
The nudist area of the beach is situated between the sea cave and the natural arch.
This lovely Californian coastal trail has much more to offer for avid hikers. Check out the Shell Beach Bluff trail, located North of Indio drive and is one of the popular trails for hiking in the area.
Ontario Ridge trail begins at Shell Beach Road and is another popular trail you should not miss, offering spectacular ocean vistas.
This is one of the best nude beaches in Ca for starter nudists who generally tend to be timid among the crowds to go naked.
On the beach, you will also see people who are not entirely naked, which may make you feel at ease dipping your toe in the clear waters and being wholly yourself.
Like Black’s beach, there are no restrooms or eateries available on the beach, so ensure to get enough food and other necessities if you are planning to visit this beach.
RED ROCK BEACH, STINSON
Towards the South of Stinson Beach, Nestled in the Mount Tamalpais State Park in San Francisco and the Marin County mountains, Red Rock Beach is one of the most popular nude beaches in California.
This beach is a thrill-seekers paradise since craggy cliffs surround it, it is hard to access, and often has fewer visitors. Red Rock beach should be on your radar if you want to party on the sand and have the utmost nudist beach experiences in Ca.
The Boho vibes, the nude volleyball sports, and blaring music make it the perfect California nude beach for all naturism lovers.
Red Rock Beach is at its most beautiful when the tides are low. During low tides, you may relax in a hot spring close to the trailhead’s south. Check the tidal charts online before planning to take the hard access path to this beach.
Get ready to make loads of new friends on this Bay area’s favourite nudist beach and indulge in fun games like frisbee and beach volleyball.
If you are not an expert swimmer, I would advise against swimming at this beach since the waves are choppy and there are no lifeguards.
Additionally, there are other family-friendly beaches close by, so be careful to land on the correct beach before removing your clothing to avoid facing implications.
Red Rock Beach has parking on both sides of Highway 1 and is located a quarter mile north of the Steep Ravine Beach entrance.
Go on a weekend road trip with your friends to this beautiful nudist beach in California.
SECRET COVE NUDE BEACH, LAKE TAHOE
One of North Lake Tahoe’s most popular locations for photos is The Secret Cove Nude Beach, located about 2. 6 miles south of Sand Harbor and a mile from the Nevada region.
The beach is distinguished by its enormous granite cliffs, mild waves, and fine sand making it one of the well-liked nude beaches in California.
Go swimming during the low tides or walk on the clean sand with your dog on this dog-friendly beach in California.
Especially during the peak summer times, the beach gets crowded, so I recommend visiting the beach in the early hours.
Plan for a short and steep hike near the lake region if you want to add an extra adventure to your California nudist beach trip itinerary.
SAN GREGORIO BEACH, SAN MATEO
Have you ever thought of what it feels like to own a nude beach? One of the best gay nude beaches in California is the privately owned San Gregorio beach in San Mateo County.
The expansive nudist beach is home to several naturally formed caves. It is a visual treat to explore these adventurous caves if you are looking for a perfect weekend getaway from Silicon Valley.
Make sure you arrive at the privately owned San Gregorio beach rather than the state-owned beach, where being nude could get you in legal hot water.
Pay a nominal parking fee when you arrive here and head towards the North end of the beach for the best clothing-optional California nude beach experience.
If you head to the extreme North end of the beach, popularly known as gay paradise, you will witness many cosy driftwood structures used as love shacks.
The beach caters primarily to guys, but if you are a woman who wants to go nude among the crowd, there won’t be any issues because the beach has an inclusive, accepting, and safe culture.
Towards the South End of the beach is the State Park beach, where nudity is not allowed.
BONNY DOON BEACH – DAVENPORT
Bonny Doon Beach, near the southern end of Davenport, is a tiny paradise separated into gorgeous coves amidst high cliffs and is reachable by a reasonably short hike.
Bonny Doon Beach is one of the top nude beaches in California, surrounded by lush green forests and uneven boulders.
The beach is not entirely in favour of naturists since you might get to see families amongst the crowds.
However, people are generally aware that this is a clothing optional California beach, especially at the far end of the beach. They are friendly and accommodating if you decide to do so.
Along the coast of Santa Cruz, hike a steep trail to stop at the Shark’s Tooth Cove for a cosy sunbathing experience and to explore natural rock formations.
Try to include Davenport Cove, also known as the Shark Fin Cove, which is 0.7 miles south of Davenport if you park close to Davenport Beach. The Shark Fin formations off the coast are connected to the name.
Check out this beach on New Year’s Eve. It is no less than a party filled with music, dance, food and beverages.
MORE MESA BEACH, SANTA BARBARA
Are you looking for a nice suntan at a fun-filled nudist beach? Go to More Mesa Beach, between Hope Beach and the UCSB campus north of Santa Barbara’s heart.
It is one of California’s most happening nude beaches, filled with younger crowds and a party vibe since it is closer to college.
Starting from Hollister Avenue, follow Puente Drive, which will eventually turn into Vieja Drive. From there, walk the remaining distance to the beach.
Pass by the private guarded property, and you will get the pedestrian entry amidst the Eucalyptus grove at the end of Mockingbird Lane.
Alternatively, steps down this path are uneven, and it might be hard if you are a beginner hiker.
At the trail’s end, head north to the designated clothing-optional beach area.
Towards the South is the Hope Ranch beach, which will be crowded with families, and dropping off your swimsuits in the area is prohibited.
RECOMMENDED – 15 Best Day Trips From Santa Barbara You Should Check Out
Grab your surfboard and head out to the choppy waves in this hidden treasure, or kick back on the fine sand and enjoy your favourite beverage to get the perfect tan.
Enjoy live music in the nearby cosy beachside cafes. Shop for souvenirs in the art galleries and chic boutiques closer to the beach.
If you want a roomier parking area, I advise approaching the beach from Patterson Avenue.
LAND’S END BEACH, SAN FRANCISCO
Are you wondering if there are any quiet nude beaches in California? Visit Land’s End Beach, a hidden treasure close to San Francisco near Pyramid rock.
Head to El Camino del Mar car park area and look for the signboards leading to the walking trail to the beach.
The rocky trail might be slippery and a little more difficult for beginner hikers, but you will be rewarded with spectacular beach vistas as you descend the rugged cliff path.
As you reach the bottom of the path, make sure you head towards the right for the nudist section of the beach.
Find a better spot, unwind yourself on this rocky beach and get ready to sun your buns since the weather is so pleasant here most days.
I wouldn’t recommend swimming on this beach since the tides are rough, and it might be riskier due to the absence of lifeguards on this remote beach.
Try to include the nearby Baker beach if you want to explore some more clothing optional California beaches.

HEARST BEACH, SAN SIMEON
Located near the Hearst Castle in San Simeon city in San Luis Obispo County is Hearst Beach, also known as William R Hearst Memorial State beach, one of the secluded nude beaches in California.
Hearst Beach is a little cove maintained by the California State Parks and is a great place to spend a relaxing weekend with spectacular beach views and hilltop castle views.
DEVIL’S SLIDE BEACH, HALF MOON BAY
If you are looking for a well-kept nude beach with all basic amenities, head to Devil’s Slide beach, located along the coast of central California.
The landslides that have previously happened in the region due to erosion give the beach its name.
Because of the significant whale sightings on this beach, it is also known as Gray Whale Beach.
Devil’s beach is one of the most excellent nude beaches in California that one may choose for a lovely weekend since it is bordered by enormous craggy cliffs and lush green woods, and the beach is home to various animals.
Head to the North end of the beach if you want to spend time in the designated nude section.
I wouldn’t advise going into the sea since there are white sharks and other hazardous predators, and the water is frigid.
Plan a trip to this beach during spring if you love watching Whales, Sharks and other gorgeous sea mammals.
The beach features well-kept parking and restroom facilities.
MORE UNDERRATED NUDE BEACHES IN CALIFORNIA
BAKER BEACH, SAN FRANCISCO
If you are wondering if there are any nude beaches in California near the Bay Area, visit Baker Beach, close to San Francisco, famous for its stunning views of the Golden Gate Bridge.
Early in the 1990s, the Burning Man Festival attracted large numbers to the beach, but due to a clash with the local governance, the event was moved to the Black Rock Desert, close to the Nevada area.
The beach draws touristy crowds, so ensure you land on the Northern side of the beach before you pop off your clothes.
You can lounge or sunbathe on this beach even though swimming is not advised owing to the strong currents and cold waters.
SAN ONOFRE BEACH, GAVIOTA STATE PARK
Located in San Diego County, San Onofre Beach is a 3000-acre state park with expansive landscapes and is known for its lovely trails, which lead to the other nearby beaches.
There are six trails in the area, and trail number six will lead you to one of California’s most lovely nude beaches, San Onofre Beach.
Walk towards the South away from the lifeguard tower when you reach the bottom of the trail and unwind on the sandy clothing-optional beach.
You may notice a barrier dividing the park into two portions since the beach is federal property owned and maintained by the Camp Pendleton Marine Corps Base. The locals claim that there is a gay nudist beach on the opposite side of the barrier.
Visit this one of the perfect ca nude beaches during summer. Go hiking around the nearby trails for the best nudist beach experience.
Check out the tidal charts online before you wish to swim in the cold waters. I suggest avoiding the sea at high tides as the tides could be a little scary.
HOLE IN THE WALL BEACH, SANTA CRUZ
Close to Santa Cruz in the town of Davenport is one of the immaculate nude beaches in California, Hole in the Wall beach.
Head south toward the Panther beach and pass through “the hole in the wall” to access this beach. You will see a sizable rocky wall separating the Panther beach from the Hole in the wall beach.
Expect fewer crowds since the beach is oh-so-not-popular. The area is also a distinctive beachside location for photography.

Ensure you look online tidal charts before heading to this beach since the tides are strong and dangerous. Although you can swim at both of these beaches, it is to your best advantage to avoid them when the tide is high.
BONEYARD BEACH, ENCINITAS
Wondering are there any secluded private nude beaches in Southern California? Check out Boneyard Beach, situated beneath a very high cliff.
Access to this beach is complex, making it one of the most remote nude beaches in California.
You must go to Swami’s Beach or D Street Beach and walk around to reach Boneyard Beach.
Avoid entering the waters during high tides. If you visit this beach during low tide, you may sunbathe while soaking in the fantastic panoramic views, crystal clear seas, and fluffy clean sand.
CRATER BEACH, SAND CITY
Crater beach, one of the best nude beaches in California, is a mile-long secluded stretch of sand near Sand City famed for its massive dunes and for offering a variety of exciting activities.
Go swimming, beachcombing, hike the Monterey Peninsula Recreational Trail nearby the beach or relax on the soft sand on this unique beach.
Suppose you travel by car to this beach, park close to the San City shopping centre and take California Avenue to the trail. The Sand City beach is also about a 10-minute stroll from the Crater beach.
Enjoy the natural slides in the sandy playground the dunes offer on this clothing-optional ca beach while admiring the beautiful craters.
If you want to take a day trip to the beach to explore the neighbourhood, there are a few museums nearby within a 30-minute drive.
PYRAMID BEACH, SANTA CRUZ
Pyramid Beach, located 2.5 miles North of Santa Cruz boardwalk, is one of the smallest nude beaches in California.
The beach is also called 2222 beach since it is located across the 2222 West Cliff.
You could get the sense of having a beach in your backyard; that’s how little the beach is! Though it is pretty tucked in the residential area, nudity is tolerated on this beach, and the locals are inclusive about the culture.
The access to the beach is a bit steep and dangerous, but it is safe. On a perfect sunny day, you will see fellow nudists and collegegoers on the beach.
Check out the nearby Natural Bridges State Park beach if you have spare time in your itinerary.
LAGUNA CREEK
A popular gay beach area near the South of Davenport in Santa Cruz is the Laguna Creek beach, a half-mile sandy stretch and a part of the Coast Dairies State Park.
The beach is known for its stunning lagoon and the variety of birds in the region, making it one of the best nude beaches in California.
Head to the North end of the beach for skinny-dipping, or hit the South end if you are timid to be in your birth suit.
The middle section of the beach is mainly for gay beachgoers, but you are free to explore the coast.
HOW TO REACH?
If you are driving from Santa Cruz, Head north of the junction of highways 1 and 17.
You may park on the inland side of Highway 1 or the unmarked Laguna Road next to the parking lot.
PANTHER BEACH, DAVENPORT
If you are into Whale watching, surfing, swimming and additionally, if you are a nude beachgoer, visit Panther Beach in Davenport, 10 miles North of Santa Cruz.
Access to this one of the famous nude beaches in California is hard, featuring rocky paths and steep slopes. So ensure you have the necessary supplies and required gear.
From the north end of the parking lot, cross the tracks and follow the steep slopes, which will lead you to the main beach.
HOW TO REACH?
If you are driving from Santa Cruz, head 10.6 miles north of the junction of highways 1 and 17. You will find Panther beach between mileposts 95 and 96 on Highway 1.
The parking area is on a ridge between the highway and the railroad tracks on the west side of the highway. It is a narrow dirt road.
FOUR MILE BEACH
The Four Mile Beach, a section of Wilder Ranch State Park, is one of the nude beaches in California recognised for Surfing.
The beach is accessible by driving approximately four miles north of Santa Cruz to the parking lot along Highway 1.
It is also called the 44-mile beach by the people of San Francisco since the distance from the junction of highways 1, and 92 in Half Moon Bay is 44 miles.
You may bump into avid surfers if you head towards the South end of the beach.
This beach doesn’t often have a lot of visitors, but you could see a ranger there who might ask you to put on your gear.
RIO DEL MAR BEACH
If you are looking for a nudist beach filled with fun activities, check out Rio Del Mar beach, located between Seacliff Beach State Park and the expansive La Selva Beach.
Play beach volleyball, go surfing or grab your favourite drink from the nearby cafe while you sunbathe on this one of the dune-covered nude beaches in California.
Spots between the dunes and hills offer more privacy if you want to stay away from the rangers on this beach.
HOW TO REACH?
From Santa Cruz, follow Highway 1 South to Aptos and take the Rio Del Mar exit. Follow sign boards for Rio Del Mar.
CARMEL MEADOWS BEACH
Another popular destination for nudist beachgoers is Carmel Meadows Beach, a small section of Carmel River State Beach located a few miles from downtown Monterey.
I recommend taking the guided e-bike tour on this one of the gorgeous nude beaches in California to explore the naturally formed rocks and the rugged coastline.
Most parts of the beach are clothing-optional, allowing you to unwind on the fine white sand while taking in the stunning surroundings.
Since the tides here are dangerous, I would advise against going into the water.
That’s it about the best nude beaches in California. Have a fun holiday!

The Playa de las Gaviotas beach is located north of the famous Las Teresitas beach on the island of Tenerife, behind the rocky promontory of Punta de los Organos. It is difficult to get there without a car. It is believed that the beach is in demand by residents of the capital of the island, who consider Las Tericitas not clean enough.

We came here by car (there is a parking lot, but it’s small), there are very few people, because it’s not the season among the locals (they were in April). Very picturesque beach with black sand and beautiful rocks. They wet their feet, the water is cool, but the daredevils swam!

For those who travel around the island without a car, you can not come here. Getting there is quite difficult, and for motorists it is also difficult with parking. But the beach itself is very good. Clean soft sand and quite secluded.

The only difference between this beach and others is the surprisingly soft sand. Although in the presence of wind, it penetrates everywhere. But you can walk on it like on an expensive carpet. Otherwise, there is nothing remarkable: it is difficult to get there, parking is unsuccessful.

Inhabited Mars, this Tenerife! Santa Cruz, machines and mechanisms, las Teresitas.
Actually, we were more interested in the beach than in the capital city. And we rushed to him already from Callao Salvaje. Rushed with an eye on the signs, as if not to receive a letter of happiness that way from one hundred to six hundred euros. It all depends on how you tread the pedal. Tolerance 7km/h. We couldn’t resist staying at Candelaria. I met one tall red-haired man at the figures of leaders. I could not resist pointing my finger at him: guancho? The joke was generously received. We continue the excursion, now in the capital. 36 overboard (in October!), but this did not deter us from taking a selfie at the steam engines near the port. The railway is only in dreams, but here such monsters are in perfect condition! In the same place, the cruise handsome Silhouette was moaning. Another 10 km and we are at the goal. The beach will be longer than Playa de la Tejita, which is near El Medano, there is a little more than a kilometer, and here one and a half, and nudists do not get it, although topless is present. Water, of course, ocean, but I prefer the open ocean. The paddling pool in a word, although it is well equipped and the sand is already from the Sahara. Parking no problem. By the way, this is not the only beach with golden sand, in the west there is another one (“secret”), it is called the almost familiar word Abama. Refreshed, we head to Benijo Beach through Anaga Park and Taganana.

Incredible place!
Wonderful place, simply wonderful. Clean and tidy, adequate money for a visit. At the entrance you will be given a brochure guide in the language you need. Informative and educational. You can buy light snacks and drinks at the entrance.
There are practically no people on a weekday, only garden workers who really love their work and treat it with love. If you are looking for peace and solitude with nature, you can’t find a better place. Beautiful trees and plants, the original arrangement of garden objects by region. A large variety of birds, which, unlike zoos, live there in the wild.
A bonus to everything – chic observation decks overlooking the ocean. Great place to take great photos. If you are very tired, then there are benches right there where you can rest before continuing the exciting path.
Another big plus is that it’s hard to get lost in this garden. The map of the garden is really made for visitors, not just for show.
I recommend it with all hands. 5/5

Nice walk
Arriving at Parque Rural de Anaga from Puerto de la Cruz, we walked along the trail “El Piharal” (“Magic Forest”), having obtained prior permission. Beautiful, pleasant … True, after hiking in the levadas of Madeira, the perception was already not so enthusiastic – it seemed to us weaker, and less diverse. But also good. In addition, we were lucky with the weather – in January there was neither wind nor rain … only sunshine 🙂

La Pinta beach
An ideal entry into the warm ocean, although the water temperature is +18-24 degrees depending on the season. Deep bay with clear water. Spoils all the abundance of restaurants and cafes on the coast of the beach.

Reward for a one and a half hour trip – plunge into the cool ocean
On a small volcanic beach, having taken out sandwiches, a couple of dozen people satisfied their hunger and strengthened their strength before the road back. The route is in demand! It is surprising that in the absence of at least some kind of road, there is housing and people live. Apparently a message across the ocean, although I did not see where you can land on the shore. Strong waves and fear to get to know the stones and rocks hidden under water prevented us from fully swimming. But you can still plunge into the cool waters of the ocean, although I was the only one.

The best beaches
Here are the top 10 best beaches in the world:
1. Turtle Island, Fiji . It is practically the smallest island in the South Pacific. There is no government, no laws, no language, no religion on this island. This corner belongs to the richest businessman Richard Evanson.
He bought this island and turned it into a real paradise on Earth, bringing animals and birds here, as well as planting various tropical plants here. The island is famous for its mangroves and incredibly beautiful coral reefs.

This is a truly unique and amazing place created by nature itself. This beach is the result of volcanic activity and is located in a basin off the coast of Puerto Vallarta. You can get here through a tunnel, the path is not exactly easy, but it is worth overcoming for the sake of the beauty that will appear before you.
The water is incredibly clear, the sand is beautiful and the scenery is amazing. The sides of the bowl, formed by karst rocks, are polished by the waters and look amazing and amazing. This place is also called the “Beach of Love”, as here you can hide from prying eyes and enjoy solitude.
The name literally translates as “sunny island”. And indeed it is. The gentle sun shimmers in the crystal clear water of the Indian Ocean and warms the fine, almost white sand.
Generally considered the best place for a romantic getaway. If you have not been here yet, be sure to visit, the impressions will remain for a lifetime. The water on this beach is so clear that visibility is 40-50 meters. You can also see the most luxurious bungalows.

That is why when you come here, you can enjoy the virgin nature and cleanliness. There is nowhere to live here, so most tourists come here only for one day and settle on a neighboring island. But this day will be remembered for a lifetime, because in this place you can observe not only a gorgeous untouched beach, but also marine life, such as dolphins.
is a unique and world famous place located in the Bahamas. And it is notable for the fact that the sand here has an interesting pink hue. It acquired this color thanks to crushed corals and pink marine life living here.
The sand is pleasant to the touch, the water is always warm, and there are almost no waves. In addition, you will not die from the heat, as it is quite cool on the shore even on sunny days. What else is needed for happiness? An amazing place to stay and definitely worth a visit!
7. The coast of the city of Negril in Jamaica . The coastline has a length of almost 11 kilometers. The sand is white, the waters are incredibly clean, the sun shines here all year round! By the way, you will not see a single tall building or industrial enterprise, so the environment is almost perfect.
The locals are friendly and always welcome tourists. If you are lucky enough to visit here, be sure to sit under a palm tree and enjoy the sunset. An incredible sight, seeing which, you will understand what beauty is.
They are considered to be practically the most environmentally friendly in the world and are under state control. In addition, there is an excellent service, so the rest in this place is perfect not only for lovers, but also for children and couples.
On these beaches you can sunbathe and enjoy refreshing drinks and even local cuisine. The water is incredibly clean and clear, so swim and enjoy. And don’t think about “catching” some E. coli, as most beaches have cleanliness awards.
9. Anse Source D’Argent in the Seychelles . A place where you can not only take pictures (this beach is almost the most photographed in the world), but also enjoy the gentle sun, warm white sand and clear turquoise water. Entrance to this place is paid, but here you will not see crowds of people or garbage.
Exotic plants are specially planted on the beach, and the order is monitored around the clock. The sandy shores of this place are combined with huge stone boulders created by nature and polished waters. Gorgeous and quiet place!
10. Beach in Tahiti, French Polynesia . This beach is located between the bays of Paoaoa and Matira on the southwestern part of this beautiful island. Here you will see numerous exotic palm trees, chic warm white sand, turquoise clear water. Enjoy the gentle sun and take a break from the hustle and bustle.
Be sure to visit at least one of these beaches! Do not spare money, because you cannot buy wonderful memories of marvelous places for any money.

Someone likes quiet, secluded beaches, someone – luxurious with white sand and a blue lagoon, someone – wild with cliffs and rocks. And which one will you choose?

For worshipers of the sun, we are constantly looking for the perfect place to worship. What makes a place perfect? Preferences can vary greatly from person to person. Some of us prefer a quiet place where we can enjoy the sun in peace and quiet. Some of us want to be where we can show off a new designer swimsuit and a toned body. Still others want to tan without annoying lines from swimsuits and swimming trunks. Regardless of your personal choice, you will agree that there are three main components: the sun, the sand and the place itself. Given these three indicators, we will show you the best of the best. From the famous to the secluded, from expensive resorts with designer swimwear to clothing-free beaches. We are sure you will find a beach that suits your style on the list. The list is in random order.
1
La Minatas beach. La Romana, Dominican Republic.
The beaches of the Dominican Republic are famous for their beauty and tranquility. The pristine and picturesque beach of La Minatas is ten minutes away from the main roads and hotels, making this beach attractive for those who prefer to sunbathe in seclusion. Despite the relative privacy, there are restaurants quite close if you are hungry and most importantly, there is a massage parlor right on the beach. Sunbathing and massage – what could be better? google maps
2
White beach. Bocaray Island, Philippines.
Over two miles of soft white sand that never gets too hot. It can be said, a tan in paradise … This piece of land was almost untouched about 30 years ago. It is now considered by most to be one of the best tropical holiday destinations in the world. If you go, try to pick a time during the Amihan period (roughly September to June) when the temperature is moderate, there is little rain and the prevailing cool breeze blows from the east. goggle maps
3
South Beach. Miami, Florida.
South Beach in Miami from the category of “others to see and be seen”, for those who like to splurge a little while sunbathing on the beach. Coming to this beach you will almost 100% meet a celebrity. If quietly and peacefully sunbathing is not your way, then renew your gym membership and plan a trip to Miami. Google maps
4
Red beach of Santorini. Akrotiri, Greece.
The red beach of Santorini is one of the most picturesque places on the list. Surrounded by tall red lava rocks (hence the name), this beach is made up of beautiful and unique red sand. The beach can only be reached by boat, or ten minutes walk downhill from the top. The whole island was formed by a now dormant volcano – which sleeps but has not died … Google maps
5
Tulum beach. Mexico.
Mexico has plenty of beautiful cities with great beaches. What sets Tulum apart from others is its proximity to some of the most beautiful Mayan ruins in all of Mexico. Tulum is located about 80 miles from Cancun, which makes it possible to visit the ruins, Tulum is still completely untouched by tourists and is still secluded and quiet. If you have an interest in archeology, ancient civilizations, or just really enjoy visiting historical ruins, then Tulum is the perfect combination of sun and adventure. google maps
6
Nudist beach. Vrboska, Hvar island, Croatia.
If you like to sunbathe without clothes, then go to the nude beach in Vrboska. Surrounded by vineyards, pine groves and olive trees, this little cove is an incredibly beautiful spot for a nude sunbath. There are plenty of rocks on the beach that can provide a spot for sunbathing in a mother-to-be if you prefer privacy. If you are an experienced nudist), then you can stay at the camp nearby, where there is a small restaurant, a shop and a gas station. google maps
7
Hanalei bay beach. Kauai, Hawaii.
If beauty is your thing, Hanalei Bay is what you’re looking for. An almost perfect semi-circle of white sand beach is surrounded by several magnificent waterfalls and mountains in passing clouds. Although the beach can get crowded with tourists, especially during the winter when the surf season starts, you won’t find more stunning views anywhere else. Google maps
8
Ocracoke Island. North Carolina.
This little secluded gem is only accessible by boat, private jet or ferry. Although modern electronics (i.e. phones and computers) have already reached this island paradise, the reception is still very poor. The deserted Ocracoke Beach has some of the most pristine sands in the world. Relax, pick up the book you wanted to read and enjoy the sun.
There are many selections of “The Best Beaches in the World”. The ranking ranks places based on criteria such as visual appeal, outdoor activities, beaches with the best party and nightlife, the most secluded beaches, etc.
TOP 10 best beaches in the world – photo
This ten will be about places that have no analogues . And since all the beaches that will be discussed are one and only, it makes no sense to assign any places to them, this is just a list.
Let’s start with the beaches that are categorized as “must-see” tourists worldwide.
Tulum
The beach is located in the Riviera Maya (Mexico). A striking feature of Tulum is its proximity to some of the most beautiful in Mexico ruins left over from the Maya civilization.
Ruins Tulum is an ancient fortress perched on a rocky cliff that offers breathtaking views of one of the best beaches in the world.
Tulum – quite popular is a tourist destination, so it may not feel like a secluded spot, but it makes up for it with its wide stretch of white sand and the mesmerizing turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea.
Navajo
Location – Zakynthos island, Greece. Navajo – isolated and strikingly beautiful sandy bay , accessible only by boat. Tourists from all over the world are attracted by:
Sheer limestone cliffs ;
White sand ;
Pure blue water .
The peculiar highlight of the beach is the remains of the smuggling ship “Panagiotis” , sunk by criminals after a long pursuit by the Greek Coastal Police. By the way, “Navaio” is translated from Greek as “shipwreck”. A stunning view of the bay opens if you stand on the high side of the cliff.
Grace Bay
The Turks and Caicos Islands are over 40 small islands and sandbars. Providenciales is the main tourist center of this archipelago. It is here that Grace Bay is located, a strip of paradise with a length of 19 km.
The clear water and coral reef system that fringes the coast is the perfect combination for snorkelling and diving. Sole fly in the ointment is an ever-increasing number of hotels that makes it difficult to feel in privacy.
CPP professor chosen as keynote speaker at English Romanticism conference
By Eliana Rodriguez, Dec. 13, 2022
The German Society for English Romanticism’s 19th international conference was headlined by keynote speaker and Cal Poly Pomona English Professor Dewey Hall.
Being this is the first time Hall was invited to give a keynote address, CPP was also recognized at an international conference while demonstrating his original research in ecocriticism. Hall teaches courses and conducts research on 19th century British romantic and Victorian writers, 18th century Enlightenment, ecocriticism, and English education at CPP.
It is through passion and dedication to their fields that CPP professors can be sources of inspiration for many students who are interested in either conference experiences or writing original research papers.
“The conference theme was Romantic Ecologies and because I have spent so much time, probably over a decade now, working on romanticism, in this case, ecology, and they’ve seen my publications, they thought I would be an adequate fit for their conference theme, and I was pleased to be there,” said Hall.
Hall’s connection with the former president of the German association, Christoph Bode, led to active support as his work was original, had a wonderful delivery and archival research assuring him that his mentor would have been proud.
According to Hall, many of those who attended the conference were movers and shakers of the field of romanticism. Hall was the only professor from the California State University system that attended and spoke about his work at the conference.
The keynote address was written over the span of six months and was over 20 pages in length. Hall spent the next six months before the conference revising and reading to prepare for the Q&A session.
“There were a lot of issues and questions I ran up against which included making the transitions sound and accurate because I wanted to present an original paper,” said Hall.

In his keynote address, Hall examined the intertextual relationships between William Wordsworth’s “Lucy” Poems and the space between the linguistic notion of nature.
Hall’s goal was to write a paper that was relevant to the people in Germany. He has read of Wordsworth being in Germany from 1798-99 and wondered how the weather affected the poet’s mind since the poetry during that time was about death and coldness.
When conducting his research, the natural climate of Germany during this time came to mind and Hall made a connection to the volcanic eruption of Pico Viejo that happened on the Canary Islands of Tenerife.
According to his keynote address, Hall explained the natural world replicating itself and how materialism formed and guided his interpretation of the volcanic eruption by relating it to humanity in terms of the body.
“This was my first opportunity to give a keynote address and basically all eyes are on you for that time, so it’s really a privilege and it represents an elevated status with regards to my work in the profession and I think people really respected the work that I did for the conference,” said Hall.
However, he recalls that while the conference proved to be a stimulating experience, what resonates with him is the connections he made there.
Even after the conference, Hall’s praise was not done. He recalls that the co-organizer of the conference talked to Hall about the quality of the paper over lunch and invited him to publish his paper for the conference volume of the association’s journal.
Hall hopes to take what he learned back to his classrooms.
“If you have a desire to go to grad school in English, ecocriticism is still growing in the field, and a lot of people are doing work in this field, in part because of the climate change issues that we are currently facing,” said Hall. “Even though we are not scientists in the work that we do, the writing we do, through the rhetoric, we can actually help shape and reshape thinking.”
Hall is set to contribute to a book for the Cambridge University Press about the early 1800s that is set to be published in early 2024, while also writing a book for a project that is due December 2023.

The most popular subjects for photography in Gran Canaria: the Vegueta quarter, the cities of Galdar and Telde, the cave of La Cue Pintada, the dunes of Maspalomas, the crater of La Caldera, the Church of Iglesia de San Juan.
Photographs of Gran Canaria with unique reliefs, picturesque landscapes, diverse landscapes, majestic granite mountains, gorges and craters, with a huge riot of tropical foliage – leave an unforgettable impression. The island is a repository of unique creations of nature, not found anywhere else in the world.
Among the photos of Gran Canaria, it is worth highlighting the pictures of spacious sandy beaches surrounded by valleys of banana plantations and sand dunes. The dunes are the biggest mystery of nature, you can’t see such beauty anywhere else.
Holidays are another great opportunity to take away memorable photos of Gran Canaria. The most famous events: the annual carnival, Holy Week, the feast of Our Lady of Carmel, the day of the Magi Kings, the feast of cheese.
Gran Canaria is a great place for a photographer, both amateur and professional. The gallery contains colorful photographs of Gran Canaria – cities, as well as natural and architectural attractions.
Where I’ve been, what I’ve seen Pictures from my travels. Canaries
author Olga Krokus | 2 comments
In Soviet times, there was nothing to dream about traveling abroad. My travels began at a very advanced age.
In this first album I have placed photos from my most distant trip – to the Canary Islands. This is an amazing corner of nature: hot Africa is very close, but here the climate is completely different. The weather in the Canary Islands is about the same all year round: neither too hot nor too cold.
Perhaps this monotonous weather is connected with the fact that in the Canary Islands many locals suffer from depression. The guide said that on each island there is a psychiatric clinic where they try to cure depressive natives. Or maybe they suffer from comparing themselves to idle rich tourists, I don’t know.
What else was negative: if you go to the city center, then there is no end to annoying sellers of any souvenir nonsense, moreover, at exorbitant prices. But there were much more positive emotions and enthusiasm.
We arrived at the airport near the city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria in the northeast of Gran Canaria and took a taxi to the hotel in the southeast of the island.
Stayed in the Canary Islands for two weeks. In addition to relaxing on a wonderful beach in the dunes, we traveled all over the island of Gran Canaria on a tourist bus along dizzying mountain roads. The ferry sailed to the islands of Tenerife, Fuerteventura and Lanzarote. Tenerife was remembered for its beaches with sand of different colors, sorry, I didn’t bring it as a keepsake.
We were in March, the air temperature was constantly 18° – 22°C, the water in the ocean is cold, we just took a few dips and swam for a long time in the large pool at the hotel. But what a soft clean sand in the dunes, how nice it is to dig into it.
Lots of bright flowers and evergreen shrubs, palm trees, cacti. There are also familiar wild plants, but only they are several times larger: dandelions grow above the waist.
Each palm tree, each bush and planted flowers has drip irrigation. Due to the fact that once the Spaniards cut down the relict forest to build their sailing ships, water disappeared from the Canary Islands. Only in some places dry stony channels of streams and springs remained. Therefore, for irrigation and household needs, sea water is desalinated here. Feelings in the shower, by the way, are different from desalinated water: it seems to be more sticky, or something, and the taste is unusual, worse than that of natural fresh water. Drinking water is brought to the Canary Islands from the mainland.

All regions experienced water extremes in 2021: UN
All regions of the world saw water extremes last year – both floods and droughts — and billions of people had insufficient freshwater, the United Nations said on Tuesday.
Large areas of the planet recorded drier than normal conditions in 2021, the UN’s World Meteorological Organization said in its first annual State of Global Water Resources report.
The report assesses the effects of changes in the climate, environment, and society on the Earth’s freshwater resources – limited supplies that are under growing demand — so they can be managed better.
“The impacts of climate change are often felt through water — more intense and frequent droughts, more extreme flooding, more erratic seasonal rainfall and accelerated melting of glaciers — with cascading effects on economies, ecosystems and all aspects of our daily lives,” said WMO head Petteri Taalas.
“And yet there is insufficient understanding of changes in the distribution, quantity, and quality of freshwater resources. “
Some 3.6 billion people face inadequate access to fresh water for at least one month per year. That is forecast to rise to more than five billion by 2050, the report said.
Between 2001 and 2018, 74 percent of all-natural disasters were water-related, according to UN studies.
In 2021, all regions saw devastating water extremes, the report said.
There were record-breaking floods in western Europe and the Amazon, while water levels in rivers in Paraguay and southern Brazil dropped to an all-time low.
The report assessed streamflow – the volume of water flowing through a river – over a 30-year period.
Drops in water volumes were twice as widespread as rises.
Major river basins in the Americas and central Africa saw water volumes shrink. Rivers in northern India and southern Africa saw above-average increases.
Frozen resources
Terrestrial water storage — all water on the land surface and in the subsurface – shrank more than it grew, the report said.
Negative hotspots included Patagonia, the Ganges and Indus headwaters, and the southwestern United States.
“Some of the hotspots are exacerbated by (over-extraction) of groundwater for irrigation. The melting of snow and ice also has a significant impact in several areas, including Alaska, Patagonia, and the Himalayas,” the WMO said.
The world’s biggest natural reservoir of fresh water is the cryosphere – glaciers, snow cover, ice caps, and permafrost – and changes to this reservoir affect food production, health, and the natural world, the report said.
Around 1.9 billion people live in areas where drinking water is supplied by glaciers and snow melt but these glaciers are melting increasingly fast, it stressed.
It urged authorities to speed up the introduction of drought and flood early warning systems to help reduce the impact of water extremes.
We will tell you where to go to the sea for a cheap trip if your vacation is in March.
The advantages of a spring vacation are very tempting: no sweltering heat, prices for food, housing and entertainment are nowhere lower, there are few people. That’s just for May. And if the vacation falls in March, the picture becomes depressing: neither you have a sunny beach, nor blooming gardens. The only thing that pleases is cheap and not crowded.
Where to go if you really want to see the sea? Of course, the first thing that comes to mind is the UAE, South Africa, Australia and Tahiti. Everything would be fine, but finances desperately sing romances, and common sense whispers: “Tahiti, Tahiti … We are well fed here too!”
Well, we know how to solve your dilemma. We offer a selection of budget beach destinations in Europe, Asia and Africa, where you can go in March.
Europe – Spain and Portugal
Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain
The Canary Islands is one of the few European places where you can swim even in winter if you really want to. In March, the weather in Tenerife, the most popular island of the archipelago, is quite tolerable, because all year round the air temperature here is kept at +20..+25°C. In the worst case, +16°C awaits you in March. The water temperature in early spring here is usually kept at +19°C.
Despite the fact that the phrase “Canary Islands” is associated with “glamorous”, holidays here can be called budget. According to rough estimates, housing, three meals a day, travel and entertainment will be enough for you $46 per day – this is exactly the amount of the budget tourist index (Backpacker Index) of this “island of eternal spring”, as it is commonly called.
Tenerife, Spain
The Backpacker Index is recalculated every year. The calculation takes into account the cost of a budget, but decent bed, three meals a day, two trips by public transport, a visit to one attraction, and even 3 cans of local beer (or three glasses of wine).
Madeira, Portugal
Of course, desperate locals and visitors manage to swim in the south of mainland Portugal on New Year’s Eve, but the real resort place is the island of Madeira. In March, the air here warms up to +18°C, and the water even more – up to +19°C.
The main city of this Portuguese island is Funchal. Unfortunately, it is not listed in the Backpacker Index, but according to our calculations, one day in Madeira will cost you about the same amount as in Tenerife. Plus, you will have a significant bonus – real Madeira wine, which is produced only here!
Madeira, Portugal
Africa – Egypt and Morocco
Hurghada, Egypt
Russian-speaking tourists are so fond of the resorts of Egypt that photos from a holiday in Hurghada will not surprise anyone. If you put aside the desire to surprise relatives and friends, you will not find a better place for a vacation in March. The sea is warm here – the average water temperature is +22. 4°C, there is a lot of sun and low prices. For example, the Backpacker Index of Egypt’s capital, Cairo, is $25 per day .
Hurghada, Egypt
Casablanca, Morocco
Morocco in March is more of a cultural destination than a beach holiday destination. You can swim here, but not everyone dares to do it: the water in Casablanca, the largest city and the most popular resort in Morocco, only warms up to +17°C. In any case, for a tourist who is tired of gray snow and sub-zero temperatures, just right.
In addition to Casablanca, we advise you to definitely visit Marrakesh. The sea is the sea, and the famous Marrakesh Medina, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is worth seeing. In the old quarter of the city you can find the quintessence of oriental flavor: delicious street food, bright stalls, traditional architecture, lively conversations of local residents.
Casablanca and Marrakesh, Morocco
By the way, Marrakesh’s tourist index is only $29 .
Asia – India and Thailand
Chiang Mai, Thailand
Thailand is an ideal destination for a European tourist who is just starting to get acquainted with an unusual Asian culture. Going here in March is more than worth it. April is the hottest month of the year in this part of Asia, but in early spring the heat is quite tolerable, and the water temperature is almost +30°C. Just for those who love warmth.
Chiang Mai is not inferior to Bangkok in terms of the beauty of architecture and nature, but it has an undeniable advantage over the capital – a more measured and relaxed pace of life.
Chiang Mai, Thailand
Despite the fact that March is the high season in Thailand, prices in this country are so low that it simply does not make sense to look for better discounts. Backpacker Index in Chiang Mai even in the most popular time of the year among tourists – $20 per day .
Goa, India
Goa is the most “cultivated” part of India, so cleanliness and fighters against unsanitary conditions, which scare Europeans so much, are not as afraid to go here as to other regions of the country.
Las Canteras – The Official Gran Canaria Tourist Website
Beaches
10 reasons to return to Gran Canaria
Accommodation:
Las Palmas de Gran Canaria
Coming to the island on a cruise? If you are one many arriving in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria on a cruise, we will quickly trust you with the keys to the city’s treasure, as soon as you set foot on the island. Why should we hide our treasure? You would end up finding it sooner or later anyway. With this, we save you time.
The jewel in the crown is Playa de Las Canteras, the pearl the city doesn’t keep hidden away. It is a long strip of sand that stretches for miles along the bay, a place of special charm you will find only 3 or 4 blocks along from the cruise terminal.
Locals keep saying Las Canteras is one of the nation’s best urban beaches. And they have every reason to believe it. This is a beach blessed with fine weather practically all year round. A getaway within the capital city, a place where the hands of time seem to have stopped. A type of beach-style Central Park, where sports can be played any day of the week. Don’t forget your swimming clothes and your surf board!
Furthermore, the island is a large marine life reserve. Its sea bed is home to a thousand fish species. On dry land, it shelters tourists, fishermen, and surfers. And it has a peculiar feature, which locals know as “La Barra”, a long rock formation spreading not far from the sand. A singular strip of volcanic rock that protects a large chunk of the beach from the tides, and which turns our bay into the best place this side of the globe to swim and practically “walk on the water” on days of low tide.
When a stroll is your undisputed choice, we recommend the long walk along the sand, past coffee shops and ice-cream parlours. The first thing you will come across are the Puntilla sidewalk cafés and the fresh-fish restaurants. At the other end of the beach is the surfing environment around the Alfredo Kraus Auditorium, with yet more sidewalk cafés and bars by the sea.
But we must warn you: if your intention is to stay for several days, on Wednesday forget about finding the beach you saw on Monday, it just cannot be done.
Las Canteras is known by all as the Changing Beach. It will never be the place you saw on previous days. This is one of its special traits: it’s always the same place, but appears different all the time.
There you have it. The treasure of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria lies hidden only 5 minutes off the cruise pier. Do not expect further clues. Should you wish to admire the jewel in the city’s crown, just walk four blocks. Follow anyone whistling as they walk with a towel, parasol, or surf board on their shoulders.

Kantera: 11 nations – realmadrid.one
Football does not speak any of the human languages, it does not have a passport or nationality. He scored in Spain, and in Colombia, and in Mexico, and in China – everywhere, a goal. A good example of how talent is everywhere is Real Madrid’s cantera, which consists of players from over 20 nationalities. From the smallest to the first team. Today we’re going to talk about eleven immigrant cantera players.
For many of them, coming to Real Madrid meant learning Spanish, experiencing a new culture, meeting their first friends. integration of immigrants.
Alfredo Di Stefano, also an immigrant at one time. Following his brilliant and long career, the stadium in Valdebabas bears the name of the honorary president of Real Madrid. There is probably no better place to train kanter players from all over the world than this field. Colombia, Argentina, Equatorial Guinea, Romania, Hungary, Germany, Sweden, Israel, Russia and Denmark, and others … They all defend the colors of the junior Real Madrid teams.
“I learned to speak Spanish thanks to football”
Miguel Larsson and Denis Cheryshev , Swede and Russian, Juvenil B Real Madrid players. Each is seventeen years old. The first was born in Sweden, and a few months later he moved with his family to the Canary Islands. “I started playing football as a kid and got to Racing from Santander, after I arrived at Real Madrid. Here I learned a lot, with comrades from various countries,” says the Swede.
The story of Denis Cheryshev , the son of a former famous Russian football player, I think will be of particular interest to our readers. In Spain, he lived with his father, who played for Sporting Gijon, and then for Burgos, to whose national team Denis was invited at one time. Then to the Castile-Leon national team. This team came to the tournament in Madrid Autonomy. Denis played very well, scoring 2 goals in three games. After the tournament, Cheryshev’s parents received a call and invited Denis to the Real Madrid football team.
“I was born in a village in Russia. I came to Spain when my father signed with Sporting Gijón. There I started playing football. When my father left for Burgos, I continued to play. Real Madrid saw me in the tournament and signed a contract with me six years ago. From the very beginning, everyone treated me very well. I have always felt equal. I didn’t play football in Russia. Started here. Learned the language with my teammates. In four months, I already spoke Spanish quite well.”
In the meantime, Denis’s affairs at Real Madrid were going nowhere better. In 2003, a team of his age won the European Club Championship, and the young Russian took with him the prize of the best sniper of the tournament. Subsequently, Madrid won many competitions – both domestically and internationally. Every time Cheryshev Jr. was in sight. He knows how to play a pass with a partner, rarely overdoes the ball, easily beats the opponent one on one. And most importantly, at every training session, one hundred percent is given. Because she wants to become a real star.
Mikael Agudo and Cristian Felipe are Invantil B. Agudo’s comrades, Argentinean. “I was born in Buenos Aires where I played until I was eight years old. In my first year in Spain, I played on the team in my neighborhood. For me, integration is much easier because I know Spanish, so I try to help teammates who don’t speak it. Argentine football is much faster and has fewer touches.” And this is the story of his teammate, Colombian Cristian Felipe : “I came here five years ago. In Real Madrid, I learned to play football better. My father also helped me a lot. They told me that I look a lot like Roberto Carlos. We have a great team atmosphere. Football has given me a lot.”
A clone of Javier Balboa, who, however, is 15 years old. The Guinean, whose name is Delfin Musibe and plays for Cadet B. He says that football helped him a lot, he found his first friends thanks to him. “I arrived in Spain at the age of three. Started playing football with my brothers. I am proud that my compatriot Javier Balboa plays at Real Madrid. It makes me happy when he plays and scores goals.”
Ricardo Longo, ‘Richie’. He is only 7 years old and plays in the youngest Real Madrid team: “My homeland is Romania and I am seven years old. We play a lot of matches. My father likes football very much. And he is happy to see me playing in the match, he tells me that I am useful to the team. If we win the championship, we will have a party.” Recently “Richie” scored 5 goals in one match.

Had a few walks and went to Los Cristiano’s . Beach is ok and is golden Sandy beach . From watching people go into the sea seems to be quite shallow for some way out to sea. People playing volleyball was very entertaining. Plenty of restaurants, ice cream parlours right by the beach . Ferry crossing you can watch go in and out to other islands. Can book trips on boats for whale, dolphins watching, fishing trips. Plenty of seating areas where you can just watch the world go by. Better and bigger beaches around the corner if you follow the coastline around to Playa Americas. If you walk around many shops as you walk further friendly m the front . Toilets actually on the beach which are free and very surprisedly clean with paper.

Tenerife (Canary Islands): Los Cristianos, jousting
How we got to the resort of Los Cristianos and in which hotel we stayed was described earlier. Today we will walk around this town.
It’s hard to believe, but at one time Los Cristianos was an ordinary fishing village. Now, all year round, among the beaches, hotels, bars and discos, noisy fun reigns. This is one of the most popular resorts in the archipelago. Boats and ferries regularly moor to the central harbor, they transport tourists along with rented cars to the neighboring islands of Canaria. nine0003
Having slept off after a busy day, we again went to the rental office to get even with the vehicle.
Having successfully completed this event, inspection of the area.
Together with the beaches of the resort of Las Americas, it makes up the famous “golden mile” of the south of Tenerife. It has clean yellow-white sand and small waves, which attracts a huge number of people. The beach has repeatedly been awarded the international Blue Flag award (an annual award is given to beaches and marinas, the water in which meets high quality standards and is suitable for safe swimming). nine0003
Lunch was held in the restaurant “Brotherhood, Fishermen”. The interior of the establishment is ascetic, but the dishes are fresh and tasty, which is not surprising – caught in the morning immediately goes to the kitchen of the establishment. We have a vegetable salad with olive oil and white fish (the name is not remembered) with Canarian potatoes.
In the evening we went to the “medieval” castle of San Miguel for a jousting tournament. The building, of course, is not ancient, but immersion in that era is real. At the entrance, visitors are given a cape in one of six colors and a cardboard crown. Which color you got, you will have to root for which of the knights. The guests are taken to the armory, where the king greets each with a handshake. The queen is nearby. The ruler shakes hands with men with special zeal. At this moment, the court photographer takes a picture. After the tournament, it can be obtained for a nominal fee. nine0003
Next, dozens of newly minted kings, queens and their offspring are led to the hall where the tournament is held. Brave knights fight for the title of the most-most (fight with swords and other weapons, prance on horseback), but the one whose support group is louder and more active wins. During breaks, the monarch and a retinue of tourists are entertained by jesters (horses show their tongues, people swallow fire), court photographers take photos for memory, and cooks bring out food that is customary to eat without cutlery, the Middle Ages after all. nine0003
In between meals, they cheered for their green caballero (knight). He was the cutest. On the table are white and red wine, bread and chicken soup. You can eat without a spoon.
While the knights were fighting with swords, the retinue rolled out chickens. So many birds, like kings in one hall, have not yet been seen.
Chicken with potatoes was delicious. Eat it with your hands. It is greedy for oil to flow over the lips (as in ancient times).
Hand-to-hand fighting continued for some time; they were followed by a tournament on horseback with spears, when it is necessary to knock out a dummy, hit a target with a spear and swoop down an opponent from a horse.
In the meantime, they brought dessert – ice cream. Spoon included. nine0003
They didn’t have time to use it – it’s time to root for your caballero. There were shouts, clapping, stomping on the floor with their feet and even banging iron mugs on the table. As a result, the yellow knight won, although in the course of the battle he was killed more than once by a sword stab in the armpit.
The tournament has ended. The actors bowed, allowed them to take pictures with them and escorted visitors to a nightclub located right there in the castle .
Susanne Braack, from our specialists OCEANO Whale Watching, fell for La Gomera and decided to base her business there. She says:
Worth the journey
Coming to La Gomera means a long journey, and people dont like that… Thats why its so unspoilt here. You need at least a week, if not three days more because its worth the journey, but it needs a bit of effort on the side of the guests as well. Dont just go there, see the dolphins, and come back. Theres this beautiful forest, the landscape, the views.
Surprise guests
The Canaries are really great because of the weather in winter. December usually has fewer cetaceans around, but we did have beaked whales that came so close to the boat. They were just curious, which is often the case with cetaceans. If you have time and their belly is full and theyre not hormone-driven, then they really like to interact with human beings if you come as a guest.
Our Canary islands Vacations
Debbie Sawyer, co-founder of our walking vacation specialists New Experience Vacations, lays out her favourite Canary Islands for hiking:
La Palma
La Palma became a designated natural Biosphere in 1983 and thats the whole island. Its landscapes, vegetation and wildlife are so unique. La Palma is also a UNESCO Starlight Reserve. There are 1,000km of trails with waterfalls, volcanic craters, wild coastlines and rainforests and best of all, after-dinner stargazing.
La Gomera
Arriving by boat, the island appears inaccessible, with cliffs and misty peaks. Walkers can enjoy hiking trails through national parks, protected abandoned villages, exceptionally rare forests of lichen covered laurel trees, peculiar rock formations and deep green ravines.
El Hierro
El Hierro is an exciting sea journey from La Gomera. Schedules may be erratic, but this enhances the appeal of going somewhere more remote. (Not an opinion shared by islanders!) El Hierro is volcanic with activity a constant threat lava fields and bubbling subterranean springs. This tiny island has miraculously achieved 100 percent self-sufficiency in renewable energy. Walkers love it.
Gran Canaria
You can witness nature regenerating itself from forest fires and unexpected snowfall on Gran Canaria. Climate is another bonus, with each landscape experiencing its own micro-ecosystem you can bask in sunshine by the sea and walk through misty forests all in the same day.
Tenerife & Lanzarote
Restoration of an ever-increasing number of self-sufficient and historical rural properties provides visitors with unique places to stay far from high rise hotels and apartments in Tenerife. Trekking through the Timanfaya National Park in Lanzarote a declared UNESCO Biosphere Reserve since 1993 is a hidden secret.
Michelle Braddock, co-owner of our accommodation experts Lanzarote Retreats, says that its time for tourists to look beyond the islands undeserved Lanzagrotty reputation.
Lanzarote life
The people in Lanzarote are very special. Theyre very friendly, because there are only about 140,000 people, so its like being in a big village its lovely Women travelers on their own can come and walk back from the restaurants in the dark. Youre going to be fine; all you need is a torch.
Get behind the wheel
I think its a shame that people dont get around the island, because its very easy to drive, there arent that many cars, and the quality of the roads are fantastic. They dont see that there are 300 volcanoes or Cesars amazing caves that he designed these things are absolutely outstanding, not expensive to visit, and so unique.
Avoid all-inclusive hotels
All-inclusives are a nightmare. You can see why, because guests are paying all the money beforehand, so it doesnt come into the country. Then, when guests do get there, their food is rubbish because the hotels are trying to cater on such a budget. So people come, and they want all-inclusive, but they say the foods rubbish. And you think, Well, yeah! Its so negative to the island.
Vicky Garnett, from our small group adventure vacation specialists Explore, has some pointers on where and when to walk in the Canary Islands:
Where to go
For volcanic scenery, walk in Teide National Park on Tenerife. If you just want volcanic landscapes then Lanzarote is your island. For forest scenery: the unique laurel forest on La Palma, which is a dense subtropical cloud forest. Walking poles are recommended, especially for the descents.
When to go
The best months for walking are October to April, avoiding the heat of the summer perfect conditions for exercise and earning your sangria and Canarian papas and jamon! The evenings can still be chilly and rain is possible in January and February. The Canary Gulf Stream and trade winds provide each island with its own microclimate, bringing different climatic conditions to each side of the islands.

Health & safety in the Canary Islands
HEALTH
The Canary Islands is part of Spains top-notch healthcare system. Call 112 (pan-European) or 062 (Spanish) in an emergency. Otherwise, pharmacies offer good health advice for minor ailments.Are you an EU resident? Apply for a European Health Insurance Card for free emergency treatment. Youll still need decent travel insurance to cover non-essential treatment, high-cost treatments, and emergency repatriation. Make sure youre up to date with your usual vaccinations, including measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) and diphtheria-tetanus-polio. Dont let the cooling winds in the Canary Islands trick you they cover strong sunshine and up to 30C temperatures. Wear high SPF sunscreen (preferably with the reef safe label) and sunglasses with UV filters. Most vacations to the Canaries include a hike or two. Youre unlikely to find 9-5 shops in rural areas, so pack snacks and a two-litre refillable water bottle when walking. Tap water is usually drinkable; itll just taste a little strange, thanks to the desalination process. Try a filtered water bottle for a better taste. Most mountains are below the altitude sickness trigger of 2,500m apart from Mount Teide. At 3,718m its double the size of most Canarian mountains, so if youre heading for the peak keep an eye out for the symptoms of acute mountain sickness like dizziness, nausea, breathlessness, loss of balance, headaches and a persistent dry cough. If symptoms worsen, descend immediately. Avoiding alcohol and acclimatising are also wise; you can stay overnight at the Refugio Altavista. Youll need a permit to scale Mount Teide, too; your vacation company should be able to sort this.
SAFETY
Most trips to the Canary Islands are trouble-free, but like several European countries Spain is currently under a heightened threat from terrorist attacks from various groups. Recent incidents have occurred on mainland Spain only. The UKs Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) is a good source for up-to-date information. The ocean around the Canary Islands can have very strong undertows. Watch out for flags indicating water safety on the beaches and dont go swimming if a red flag is flying. The Canary Islands have very low crime rates. The most serious tourist crime is often the pick pocketing of wallets, phones and passports in beach resorts. Keep a copy of your passport in your accommodation. On that note, hotels are required to register your passport details when you check in. Its best to stick around until staff has taken note of your details dont leave your passport at the hotel desk. Forest fires are a criminal offence in Spain even accidental ones. Dont drop cigarette butts or leave glass in the hot sun, as it can ignite tinder-dry grass and woodland. Unfortunately, the climate crisis means the increased risk of extended heat waves in the Canary Islands which means that dry brush can have fires spreading out of control quickly.

Jill Manwaring went on a Lanzarote beach house vacation
If one were looking for varied, gourmet food with a vibrant nightlife the town would not provide it. This to me was an advantage but if evening socialising was sought you might be disappointed. From my point of view it was ideal. Sarah Reeve on a Gran Canaria walking tour
Walking is reasonably strenuous, so you need to be used to steep ups and downs. Few places take cards, so go with plenty of cash (there are ATMs). Weather conditions meant it was not possible to get to the summit peak on the allotted day, but [our guide] chose a lovely alternative walk. Helen Jones on a Gran Canaria walking tour
If you don’t like battling strong winds, don’t hire a bike! Sarah Slade Wilson stayed at a Lanzarote self catering cottage
Lunches and evening meals weren’t included, but the optional meals organised by the guide were good value: allow less than five euros for picnic lunches and 15 euros for three-course evening meals. Jane Lucas on a Gran Canaria walking tour
Hire a car to explore the island, there is lots to see, from beaches to the national
park, it’s well worth it!
Lila Caballero went on a Lanzarote beach house vacation
Book your rental car early. Nancy Carey stayed at a Lanzarote self catering cottage
Travel light. There was no porterage on the trip (which reduced tippage) which meant you carried your luggage. This included traveling on a ferry (to and back) from Tenerife and checking in to three hotels. Lindsay Challoner on a Canary Islands walking vacation
Lanzarote is windy! It is also very dry and rocky, so pack sensible shoes and a hat which won’t blow away. Take goggles to see the fish when swimming in the sea. Keep an eye out for wildlife the landscape seems very barren but there are lizards and geckos and lots of birds. We even had a wading bird outside our window one day! Gemma Wilkins stayed at a Lanzarote seafront apartment in Punta Mujeres
Walk around the volcanoes in a small group with an accredited guide early on during your vacation. This will change your outlook on this amazing island and its inhabitants. The unusual beauty of the island, the influence of Cesar Manrique, the sea and the weather had such an impact on us that we would love to go back. Sophie Nelson stayed at luxury yurt accommodation in Lanzarote

Canary Islands Travel Guide | Kuoni
Tenerife is the largest and most popular island, with tropical forests, hiking trails and over 200 miles of volcanic coastline. Costa Adeje is one of the island’s newest resort areas – you’ll have sands which rival nearby Playa de Las Américas but a little more peace and quiet too, as well as a great range of luxurious beachfront hotels. Lap up views over Spain’s highest peak, Mount Teide, indulge in wonderful spa treatments while little ones make the most of the kids’ clubs, and give watersports a go; if you’re out and about during the day, hunt for bargains at the local shops, before checking out the vibrant restaurants and bars. Guía de Isora is the ultimate tranquil retreat where you can enjoy time away from the busier coastal resorts – head into the mountains for a scenic walk or hike, take a seafront stroll by the deep blue waters and tuck into superb Canarian cuisine in the local restaurants.
Take a 40-minute ferry ride across the water and you’ll find La Gomera, a refreshingly peaceful and unspoilt mountainous island. It may be tiny but it still packs a punch – you can see Tenerife and Mount Teide from its east coast, and it’s a great spot for discovering stunning natural landscapes, either on a day-trip or from one of its picturesque coastal hotels. The island has been listed as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and is a paradise for walking and hiking; you’ll see rolling valleys, misty forests, pebble beaches and dramatic cliffs. Pay a visit to the incredible UNESCO-listed Garajonay National Park, go hiking through the forests up to the island’s dormant volcanic centre, swim in the warm ocean and head south to see the captivating deserted villages by the Valle Gran Rey.
Fuerteventura is a great choice if you’re travelling with young kids or looking to try watersports. It has stunning sand dunes, turquoise waters, unspoilt beaches and cool, refreshing breezes – in fact, it’s windier than the other Canary Islands during the summer, making it the ideal host for the World Windsurfing Championship each July down south on Jandia Peninsula, home to secluded Sotavento Beach. We also recommend heading to the northern tip of the island for Corralejo; this former fishing village is in a wonderful setting by the Corralejo Dunes Natural Park, where the dunes can be up to 50 metres tall and stretch right down to the ocean. The small and uninhabited Lobos (‘Wolves’) Island, home to a nature reserve and open for day trips, is also just a ten-minute ferry ride away.
Another family-friendly island is Lanzarote, home to long, golden beaches and fun-filled resorts with loads of activities. Playa Blanca has some of Lanzarote’s best beaches – think soft, white sands and calm waters, and is well connected to other areas; head up to the scenic Timanfaya National Park, or catch a ferry from the harbour to Fuerteventura just across the water. Puerto Calero is one of the island’s glitzier parts; it has a chic marina filled with luxury yachts, indulgent spas, numerous gourmet restaurants and boutique shops, as well as dive centres and superb golf courses. For something a little different, get out and explore the island’s unique landscapes, awarded World Biosphere Reserve status by UNESCO; whether it’s rusty-red craters or volcanic vineyards, you’ll be sure to find some otherworldly-looking spots.
Gran Canaria is known for its strollable golden-sand coast and mountainous interiors. Visit Tamadaba Natural Park on the island’s west coast for sweeping green forest and spectacular views from rocky ridges, and be sure to stop off at the resort town of Maspalomas on the southern tip. This desert-oasis hybrid has over three miles of golden beaches, a landmark 19th-Century lighthouse and some of the most incredible sand dunes you’ve ever seen – the Maspalomas Dunes Nature Reserve has been beautifully sculpted by the wind, reminiscent of the Sahara not far across the water in North Africa, and the 18-hole Maspalomas Golf Course, the largest in Gran Canaria, is nearby.
Where are the Canary Islands? The Canary Islands are off the coast of north-west Africa, near the southern tip of Morocco and north of Western Sahara. Tenerife, the largest, and Gran Canaria are two of the most central islands, while Fuerteventura and Lanzarote are the closest to mainland Africa.
Food & drink In the Canaries you’ll find plenty of hearty meat and potato-style options, including puchero canario, a broth similar to the typical Madrid stew which is drained and served as soup for a first course, with its meat and vegetables for the second course – ingredients are typically pumpkin, cabbage, sweet potatoes, pork, and beef. Papas arrugadas, or ‘wrinkled potatoes’, are a popular side dish, where baby potatoes are boiled in salt water until soft, giving them wrinkles and a salty crust. There’s also mojo picón, a spicy sauce containing red or green pepper, olive oil, cumin, garlic, salt and vinegar, as well as bienmesabe, a tempting dessert made from egg yolks, ground almonds, cinnamon and honey.
SPAIN has seen its travel rules change on multiple occasion throughout the course of the covid pandemic. The most recent travel corridor change saw the Canary Islands removed from the exempt list. Today the Foreign Office updated its travel advice for Spain.

Spain is a hugely popular destination both for Britons eager to escape on holiday and for those keen to relocate permanently. Travel has been made tricky as a result of changing rules amid the covid pandemic. The Canary Islands, in particular, have seen measures chop and change.

The Canaries were removed from the travel corridor on Saturday, December 12, joining mainland Spain and the Balearic Islands on the quarantine list.
However, the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) is not currently warning against non-essential travel to the archipelago.
Its ongoing travel advice for Spain states: The FCDO advises against all but essential travel to Spain, including the Balearic Islands but excluding the Canary Islands, based on the current assessment of COVID-19 risks.”
Today, however, the Foreign Office issued a new update for the Canaries.

The new guidance concerned coronavirus testing.
“If you’re travelling to the Canary Islands, local authorities have announced that a negative COVID-19 antigen test is also valid, as well as a PCR, TMA or LAMP test,” detailed the FCDO.
“You can find further information from the Canary Island Tourism Authority and check entry requirements with your travel provider prior to travel.”
The FCDO explained what this means for those booked into hotels, rental villas and suchlike.

“If you are booked into regulated tourist accommodation in the Canaries, you will be obliged to present an official, negative COVID-19 test taken no more than 72 hours earlier, when checking in to your accommodation,” clarified the authority.
“This can be the same test used to enter the Canary Islands providing you check-in within the 72 hours of having taken the test. “
Travellers to the Canaries also need to download and activate the Radar COVID notification app.
You will need to have this throughout your stay on the islands and for 15 days after your return home.

“These measures are specific to the Canary Islands and apply to all guests aged six years and over unless they have proof of travel confirming their uninterrupted presence on the islands for the previous 15 days,” said the FCDO.
“Any traveller failing to comply, risks being refused access to accommodation.
“For further information, refer to guidance from the Canarian tourist board, and check with your accommodation provider prior to travel.”
Holidaymakers were also issued a warning regarding testing services in the UK.
“You should not use the NHS testing service to get a test in order to facilitate your travel to another country,” cautioned the FCDO.
“You should arrange to take a private test and should confirm with the testing facility the type of tests available prior to booking an appointment.”

Michael Asher, Chairman & CEO at Better2Know Ltd, told Express.co.uk: “Our Government has made it clear that NHS covid testing services are there for those with a clinical need for testing, and not for the pleasure traveller.
“We all need to play our part in taking pressure off our NHS, allowing it to focus on those who are ill and most in need.”
Prices for private tests generally range between £100 and £150.
It is also mandatory for all passengers travelling to Spain to fill out and sign a Health Control Form 48 hours prior to travel.
This can be done on the Spain Travel Health website or downloadable app.

Travel Changes For Mainland Spain, Canary Islands And Balearics – All You Need To Know – Forbes Advisor UK
On 26 July, the government removed Spain from its ‘travel corridors’ exemption list, just 16 days after the list was put in place.
This means all passengers travelling from Spain to England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland will have to self-isolate for 14 days on arrival. This includes passengers arriving from both the Spanish mainland and its islands – the Balearic Islands and the Canary Islands.
The Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) has also updated its guidance (on 27 July) to advise against all but essential travel to Spain, including the Balearic Islands and the Canary Islands.
Previously, only travel to mainland Spain was included in the advice against all but essential travel. There had been hopes that the requirement for self-isolation for those returning from the Canaries and Balearics would be removed, but this now seems unlikely.
The FCO’s latest guidance is: “From 27 July, the FCO advises against all non-essential travel to Spain, including the Balearic and Canary Islands, based on the current assessment of COVID-19 risks in the country.
“This advice is based on evidence of increases in cases of COVID-19 in several regions, but particularly in Aragon, Navarra and Catalonia (which include the cities of Zaragoza, Pamplona and Barcelona).
“The FCO is not advising those already travelling in Spain to leave at this time. Travellers should follow the advice of the local authorities on how best to protect themselves and others, including any measures that they bring in to control the virus.
“If you are returning from Spain you will be required to self-isolate on your return to the UK, but the FCO is not advising you to cut short your visit. You should contact your tour operator or airline if you have any questions about your return journey.”
You can see the FCO advice for Spain here.
The Balearic Islands are Majorca, Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera.
The Canary Islands are Tenerife, Fuerteventura, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, La Palma, La Gomera, El Hierro and La Graciosa.
Update: The authorities in the Canary Islands have negotiated a COVID-19 insurance contract with AXA which will provide tourists with cover for medical expenses, additional expenditure while quarantining on the islands and repatriation costs.
Travellers automatically receive protection under the policy if they didn’t know they had coronavirus prior to travelling to the Canaries. They must be residing in tourist accommodation (rather than with friends or relatives) in order to qualify. Further information here
Whether you’re in Spain at the moment, have a holiday booked or are considering travelling to Spain and its islands, here’s what you need to know.
What does self-isolate mean?
Now that Spain has been removed from the government’s travel corridors list, all passengers arriving into the UK from the Spanish mainland or its islands will have to self-isolate on arrival.
You must fill in a public health passenger locator form before your arrival into the UK and then remain at the address you provide on this for 14 days. This can be:
your home
the home of friends or family
a hotel or other temporary accommodation.
You should not have visitors, unless they are providing essential care, and the only friends and family you can have contact with are those you travelled with or the people you are staying with.
You should not leave this address for work, shopping or other reasons and, in England, you must only exercise in your home or garden.
There are limited circumstances which allow you to leave your accommodation in England, including attending a funeral of a family member or someone you live with, for urgent medical assistance and to get basic necessities if you can’t have these delivered.
If you don’t self-isolate in England, you could be fined £1,000, which could increase to £3,200 if you don’t provide an accurate or up-to-date contact detail declaration.

I’m on holiday in Spain now – what should I do?
The FCO is not advising holidaymakers already in Spain to leave prematurely.
It says you should contact your tour operator or airline if you have questions about your return journey – but be aware that there may be delays in response times due to a high volume of queries.
If you are due to return to work after your break or have any other commitments that require you to leave your house, it’s worth talking to your employer and anyone else impacted by your self-isolation as soon as possible.
In its announcement on the changes, the government says that it is “urging employers to be understanding of those returning from Spain who now will need to self-isolate.”
Will my planned holiday to Spain be cancelled – and what are my rights if it is?
While the FCO travel advice is in place, package holidays to mainland Spain should be cancelled by the operator.
Always wait until your operator cancels rather than cancelling yourself.
If this happens, you are legally entitled to a refund. You may be offered travel vouchers, a change of holiday or a Refund Credit Note in place of a cash refund, so decide whether you are happy with any of these options.
Under the EU Package Travel Directive, a refund should be paid within 14 days – however, due to the unusually high volume of cancellations at the moment, this may not happen so ask your travel provider about its expected time-frame.
TUI issued the following statement on 31 July:
Due to the on-going travel restrictions TUI UK have now cancelled all holidays to the Balearic Islands and Canary Islands until Monday 10 August and all holidays to the mainland of Spain until Monday 17August 2020.
All holidays to Cyprus are cancelled until 15 August 2020.
All holidays to Bulgaria have been cancelled for the 2020 summer season.
Customers will be able to cancel and receive a full cash refund, or can amend their holiday to a later date, or a new destination and receive a booking incentive. Customers currently enjoying their holiday will be able to continue as planned.
Following the demand from customers to still get away this summer, TUI UK confirms it will add another seven flights on Saturday 8, Sunday 9 and Monday 10 August to popular destinations in Greece and Turkey.
See TUI’s dedicated coronavirus page here.
easyJet holidays has said that it will cancel holidays to mainland Spain, the Canary Islands and the Balearic Islands when it restarts operations on 1 August.
Matt Callaghan of easyJet holidays says: “We’ve contacted affected customers already and will process a refund for them which will be available very shortly should they wish to book another holiday.
“We also have a very flexible approach for customers with existing bookings who are feeling unsure about travelling and will support with free changes to their booking up to 28 days before departure and wherever we can in other circumstances. ”
Jet2 issued the following statement on 28 July:
Mainland Spain, Balearic and Canary Islands
Following the latest government advice regarding travel to the Balearic and Canary Islands from the UK, we have taken the decision to suspend flights to Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura, Lanzarote, Majorca, Menorca and Ibiza up to and including 9 August 2020.
We have already suspended flights to our destinations in Mainland Spain (Almeria, Alicante, Malaga and Murcia) up to and including 16 August 2020.
Where customers are affected by any programme changes, we are offering customers the option to rebook with no admin fee, a Refund Credit Note or a full cash refund, and we will be contacting customers to discuss these options.
We will also be contacting customers who are currently in these destinations to advise them of their options regarding flying back to the UK, so we urge customers not to contact us.
For customers who are due to travel to these destinations after the dates given above, we will provide an additional update once we receive more information from the government.
I booked flights and hotels separately – will I be entitled to a refund on my flight?
Flights are likely to continue running and, unless your airline cancels your flight, you are not automatically entitled to a refund.
As a result of the coronavirus pandemic, some airlines have introduced more flexible policies, though. As an example, if you booked direct with easyJet and your flight is more than 14 days away, you can transfer to any other flight with no change fee, although you will have to pay any difference in fare.
For flights in the coming days, easyJet says: “We plan to operate our full schedule in the coming days. Customers who no longer wish to travel can transfer their flights without a change fee or receive a voucher for the value of the booking.
“Should any flights be cancelled for later in August customers will be notified and informed of their options which includes transferring to an alternative flight free of charge, receiving a voucher or applying for a refund via a webform on our dedicated Covid Help Hub at easyJet.com.”
It is, therefore, worth checking your airline’s latest policy if you wish to cancel or move your flight.
What about my accommodation?
With hotels and other accommodation, you’ll have to check the policy of the company you booked with as a refund isn’t guaranteed. It’s worth contacting your accommodation to see if there is any flexibility over and above this too as some may allow you to change the dates of your booking or claim vouchers.
Again, some more flexible booking policies have been introduced as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. Hilton, as an example, introduced a Flexibility for the Future policythat allows customers to change or cancel future bookings up to 24 hours before arrival, if they were booked on and between March 12 and August 31, 2020. Find out more here.
Can I claim on my travel insurance?
If you can’t claim a refund for your flights or hotel, or any other aspects of travel you have paid for such as car hire, you may be able to make a claim on your travel insurance.
However, this is most likely to be possible if you bought your insurance and booked your holiday before the start of the coronavirus pandemic in mid March. The majority of policies bought since then have exclusions relating to the pandemic.
If in doubt, you should contact your insurer for clarification.
What happens if my holiday is going ahead but I no longer wish to travel?
If you wish to cancel a holiday that is still running, and the FCO isn’t advising against travel, you are not automatically entitled to a refund. You are also unlikely to be able to claim anything back on your travel insurance as this is known as ‘disinclination to travel’, which is not an accepted reason for a claim.
It’s worth checking how flexible the policy is with your travel company, though, as a number of policies have been introduced as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. The terms and conditions of some popular travel companies are listed below.
British Airways – flights
BA says that its flights will operate as normal but, if you no longer wish to travel, it will allow you to claim a voucher for future travel. Find out more here.
British Airways – holidays
BA introduced a ‘book with confidence’ commitment, giving customers options to change booking dates and destinations, or even cancel a holiday completely.
For bookings made from 3 March until 31 August, for journeys due to be completed by 30 April 2021, BA will allow you to change your dates and destinations without paying a change fee – but you will need to pay any difference in price.
If you wish to cancel a holiday during the same date range, it will allow you to cancel your booking and you will receive a voucher to the same value for a future booking.
Different terms and conditions apply for other dates. Find out more here.
easyJet flights
As mentioned above, easyJet is allowing customers to change flights without a change fee for all flights more than 14 days away – but you will have to pay any fare difference.
Customers with flights booked to Spain in the coming days and weeks who no longer wish to travel can transfer flights without a change fee or receive a voucher for the value of the booking.
Customers with flights to Spain later in August will be informed of their options.
Find out more here.
easyJet holidays
easyJet holidays has cancelled upcoming Spanish holidays. Find out more here.
Ryanair
Ryanair introduced a new policy on 10 June saying that any customers who booked from then for travel in July and August will be able to move flights without a change fee to travel until 31 December 2020. The date change will only apply to the route you have already booked, though. On 17 July, this was extended to include September flights too.
If you’d like to change the date on any other flight that is still running, you’ll have to pay the normal change fee.
Find out more here.
What happens if I travel against the FCO advice?
If you travel to Spain while the FCO advises against it, your travel insurance is likely to be invalid and you’ll have to pay your own costs if something went wrong.
You’ll be able to use your European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) to benefit from free or cheap medical treatment (on the same terms as a local).
This arrangement will be in place until 31 December, when Britain comes to the end of the Brexit transition process.
Could this change in government advice happen to other popular holiday destinations?
The decision by the government to change its travel advice for Spain, and the speed at which the decision was made, may worry you if you’ve got a holiday booked.
The government points out that, if there are increases in coronavirus cases in other holiday destinations, this may happen to other countries too.
A government spokesperson said: “Protecting public health is our absolute priority and we have taken this decision to limit any potential spread to the UK.
“We’ve always been clear that we would act immediately to remove a country where necessary. Both our list of quarantine exemptions and the FCO travel advice are being updated to reflect these latest risk assessments.”

British Foreign Office continue to exclude Canary Islands from their advice against travel to Spain, the Dutch can now travel to the islands too. : The Canary
The Dutch can travel here from Saturday. Spain’s Ministry of Foreign affairs are set to allow travel from the UK into Spain without tests from May 20. The UK have separated their advice for Canary Islands from the rest of Spain, it is thought in preparation to soon allow return travel from the UK without quarantine. Right now Spain is on the UK Amber list, which means travel is allowed after Monday, but requires 5-10 days of quarantine and negative PCR results.
The British FCDO (Foreign Office) made a slight change to their information published on the main gov.uk website travel recommendations for Spain advising “against all but essential travel to Spain, including the Balearic Islands but excluding the Canary Islands, based on the current assessment of COVID-19 risks.”
For the moment however it still remains true that only legal residents or people travelling for essential reasons can enter Spain, with tourism still prohibited, though this week Spain’s tourism minister has expressed confidence that is soon about to change.
The UK Foreign Affairs office has made clear that they support that “there are restrictions and curfews that vary between regions“, but recommend “before you travel,” that travellers familiarise themselves with “Spain’s current entry restrictions and requirements. ” They make clear also that “these may change with little warning.” warning Brits to “Monitor this advice for the latest updates and stay in contact with your travel provider.”
Starting this Monday, May 17, the UK will open its borders and allow citizens to travel to 12 destinations, without the need for mandatory quarantine upon return. Though Spain is not currently on this list, the country is marked on the UK amber list, which will allow travel to the UKs favourite holiday destinations, but with the requirement to take a test and quarantine at home, on return to Britain, for a minimum of five days, ir they are negative on two PCR tests, which they must pay for themselves, or ten days if they choose not to take the second test.
Spain is negotiating with the United Kingdom for the reactivation of tourism, having blocked incoming tourists in the face of the pandemic, and now the infection rates have significantly dropped, Reyes Maroto, Minister for Industry, Commerce and Tourism, has made clear that she is working hard to resume the tourist flows between both countries.
“We are reviewing recommendation 912 (regarding the temporary restriction of non-essential travel within the EU) and it is being negotiated in the framework of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which will be approve new guidance on May 20 to allow the British to come to Spain without PCR”, she asserted last Tuesday, following Spain’s Council of Ministers meeting in Madrid. In addition, she said “we must offer certainty” to the British to come emphasising that it is essential “to continue lowering the accumulated incidence and increase vaccinations” if Spain wants to be included on the UK Green List.
Maroto has said that there is the will of the Government and the CCAA to control the pandemic, “something that will allow British tourism to reactivate.” In addition, “the purchase of 17 million doses of Pfizer accelerates the vaccination plan”, something that has been cataloged as key to ” give confidence and plan trips .” He has ruled that the massive purchase of vaccines “will make it possible to show that we are open, that we are going to be a safe destination and that we are looking forward to receiving them. ”
Netherlands will allow travel to Canary Islands from Saturday
The Government of the Netherlands have this Friday announced that they will allow, as of Saturday 15 May, Dutch holidaymakers to travel to the islands – both the Canary Islands and the Balearic Islands – without having to undergo an active covid diagnostic test or quarantine upon return to the country.
Holland has been one of the most restrictive countries when it comes to putting limits on travel and until now forced passengers who returned from the Canary Islands to a test carried out four hours before the flight departure and a 15-day quarantine, which “has slowed down” many tourists, according to the vice president of the Federation of Hospitality and Tourism Entrepreneurs of Las Palmas (FEHT), Tom Smulders.
Following this week’s successful test group of more than 80 Dutch tourists selected to visit Gran Canaria, to demonstrate the island’s “Safe Tourism” credentials the Dutch Government have given their approval to reopen summer travel, though there are still restrictions in place for the Spanish mainland.
Dutch tourists will not have to quarantine or present a negative PCR upon return from the Balearic and Canary Islands. “I am pleased to announce that from tomorrow Dutch tourism will be open to the Balearic and Canary Islands,” wrote the Dutch Ambassador, Jan Versteeg on Twitter.

Dutch tourism has been one of the source markets that has remained most constant, even despite the pandemic restrictions, almost 6,000 dutch tourists have visited the islands during the first three months of this year, similar to the amount of British who have also managed to visit during the first quarter. In the first 3 months of 2019, 4.5 million Brits had visited the islands along with almost 600,000 Dutch.
Tenerife tips. Holidays in Tenerife: useful tips for tourists .
And in winter there is snow, so it makes sense to take a thicker sweater.
As for the “dress code”, it is, as it should be at the resort, beachwear. However, in the evening, the hotel administration asks not to visit the restaurant in shorts. So it’s still worth it for men to take trousers with them.
Beach accessories – sunglasses, towels, swimwear, sun cream, etc. can be purchased from the many shops in the resort. This is especially true in winter, when the choice of such goods in domestic stores is small.
Quality imported alcoholic drinks in Tenerife are cheaper than in Russia; and tobacco products are more expensive.
When passing through passport control at Tenerife airport, you need to present to the police officer, together with your passport, a migration card filled out in Latin letters. You will receive a blank card either on the plane or directly in the control room. The migration card consists of two parts. The lower part will remain with you until the end of your stay on the island and must be handed over at passport control on the way back.
You can exchange dollars for euros immediately upon arrival in Tenerife right at the airport. Or at a hotel. But it will also be the most disadvantageous course for you.
The most favorable exchange rate is in bank branches (open until noon) and street exchange offices. The latter are often open until very late in the evening and sometimes refuse to accept $100 bills.
ATMs are located at almost every corner of the resorts. In shops and restaurants of large (by the scale of Tenerife) settlements, all major credit cards are readily accepted, except for American Express. However, it is better to always have some cash with you, and outside the habitats and movement of tourists, cash will be needed.
The most expensive phone calls are from your hotel room. The most cost-effective way to call Russia is from street phone booths. Moreover, for payphones of different companies, tariffs can differ by more than 3 times. We recommend using blue-green payphones, which can be found in Tenerife literally at every turn. The minimum amount required for a call to Moscow (approximately 30 seconds) is 0.45 €. To call Russia, dial “007” followed by the area code and phone number.
Computers with Internet access are available in almost all hotels, but this is also the most expensive option – approximately 6 € per hour. In Las Americas, you will see many slot machine halls (including several on the promenade): 1 hour of Internet access costs 2 €. Be prepared for menus in Internet Explorer and for the fact that entering some characters from the keyboard (for example @) is not entirely obvious.
Tenerife is a prosperous place with a high standard of living of law-abiding and friendly indigenous people. However, it is worth paying attention to the following obvious, but often neglected rules.
Do not leave valuables, money, documents in the car or unattended on the beach when you go swimming. Keep significant amounts of cash, jewelry and other valuables in a safe in your hotel room (paid service – approximately 2 € per day). Be careful about dealing on the street with those who will offer you free lottery tickets, “cheap” real estate services, and the like.
Despite the fact that there is no shortage of stores in Las Americas and other southern resorts, it is more expedient to go shopping in the capital of the island, the city of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Large shopping centers are concentrated in Santa Cruz, where prices are lower and the assortment is incomparably larger.
Tips for tourists in the Canaries, tips for tourists in Tenerife. Travel tips .
Since Tenerife, like all other Canary Islands, is exempt from import tax, prices for many categories of foreign-made goods are lower here than in continental Europe. First of all, this applies to high-quality alcoholic beverages, perfumes, clothing and leather products (including crocodile).
Tenerife is said to have cheap consumer electronics. This is only partly true. For outdated models, prices can really surprise you. And some tourists cannot resist the temptation to take with them to their homeland not only a camera or a video camera, but also a 25-inch TV at a “ridiculous” price. However, prices for new models of digital cameras, video recorders, etc. are quite comparable to those offered by Moscow stores.
If you have any difficulties or problems while in Tenerife, first of all, contact the representatives of the host country.

Loro park in Tenerife
Loro Park or Parrot Park is one of the main attractions of Tenerife, which is world famous. Tourists preparing to visit the divine island have probably already read that 3.5 thousand species of animals are kept in Loro Park, and not just parrots, and that its area is huge. So I’ll go into details.
To visit Loro Park, you should allocate a whole day. Opening at 8.30, about this time and you need to navigate. Because it’s physically impossible to get around EVERYTHING in two hours, and it’s a pity to miss something)) The territory of the park is luxurious, in the first minutes the main thing is not to lose the company with which you arrived at the park. The first place that all visitors go to is a pond with colorful Japanese koi. They are wonderful and greedy! The guide assured us that carps are fed from the belly, but their peculiarity is that they are always hungry. On the advice of a senior comrade, we threw a piece of bread into the water and the fish attacked him! At some point, I even thought that I could hear their growling and chattering of teeth.
In some places, the park is densely planted with palm trees, on which bright exotic birds of incredibly large sizes flutter. A giant tortoise may crawl out. Behind the armored glass are terrible black gorillas, jaguars and tigers (including albino tigers), crocodiles, sloths, meerkats, flamingos. Tiny like toy marmazettes.
Penguinarium in Tenerife is the largest in the world. Flocks of penguins live in almost ideal conditions – the water and air temperatures in the enclosure correspond to their natural habitat. They are also behind glass. Penguins are not at all afraid of people and allow themselves to be examined at close range. To avoid crowds, visitors look around, stand on a moving walkway that carries through the entire penguinarium.
The oceanarium is a huge aquarium with a tunnel inside, through which visitors walk.
Show of parrots, killer whales, dolphins and fur seals. I am delighted with all four performances.
You must come in the morning, of course, otherwise you won’t have time to see everything. At the expense of food – the choice is small, mostly fast food of medium quality, surprisingly. Unlike Siam Park, where you can just overeat, here the choice is meager. Therefore, if you are with children, it is better to take care in advance. At the entrance, everyone is photographed with parrots, so if you suddenly have two families or a company, then immediately ask either to take several photos, or take pictures separately. Since only one photo at all will be waiting for you at the exit! Immediately take the schedule of all shows, booklets are everywhere. There everything is on time, so one is over, go to another. You can do everything!
If you want to climb to the very peak of the volcano (all tourists take the funicular only to the observation deck), you must obtain an electronic permit in advance. Having it in your hands, you can climb the hiking trail to the very peak! Permission is presented at the guard post, after you go up the funicular.
You can arrange it yourself (unfortunately I don’t remember the link of the site, but you can easily find it on the forums on the Internet). And yet, if you want to climb the peak, then do not take a group tour, no one will wait for you while you continue climbing. Either rent a car and drive yourself, or an individual tour with a car and a driver. We took a Mercedes minivan for 2 families for 10 hours (Teide + Maska Gorge), very convenient.
The national park and the volcano itself can be visited in two ways:
1. independently (buses 348 (from the north) and 342 (from the south), rented car)
2. with a tour, which is easy to purchase at agencies or at the reception of your hotel.
In the park itself, on the way to the volcano, there are many interesting places and beautiful landscapes, observation platforms are equipped everywhere.
If you are afraid of heights, then a trip through the park will be enough for you.
At an altitude of 2356 m above sea level, there is a funicular station that will take you to the observation deck at Teide Peak (altitude 3555 m) in 8 minutes, the cost of an adult round-trip ticket is 25 euros, 09. 00-16.00, downhill 09.00-17.00.
There are 3 hiking trails here. 2 of them are free to visit (11 and 12), and Peak Teide (route 10 – high difficulty, height 3718 m) requires pre-registration, since the entrance to the peak is limited.
You can book a visit at the link: “http://www.reservasparquesnacionales.es/real/ParquesNac/usu/html/listado-actividades-oapn.aspx?cen=2”, however, it is better to take care of this in advance, there may not be places on time convenient for you, you need to print the reservation, or write down the number, upon presentation you need a passport. When booking for a group, be sure to specify the number of people.
Recommendations:
– Take a passport (if you have a reservation)
– Comfortable shoes (better sports or special)
– Bring long sleeves, as at any time of the year there can be very cold winds and snow at the top.
– Take sunscreen (during the day the sun is merciless)
– Take drinking water
– It is better to clarify whether the funicular is working (in winter it is especially important), it can be closed for various reasons, tel. 922 010 440 or at the funicular site.
To visit Tenerife and not to go to the Teide National Park is a big omission! Happy travels!
Welcome to the blog, I am very, very glad to see you!
From the travel diary article you will learn:
1. Vacation in Tenerife. How to arrange a trip on your own?
How to plan a trip on your own and why do tourists increasingly do without travel agencies?
First, business, in economy . An independent trip to Tenerife cost us 2 times cheaper than a tour from a travel agency.
Secondly, traveling alone is much more interesting. This is not a banal vacation for 7 or 14 days, but a whole adventure! You get to know and understand the life of the people of another country more closely.
Third self waiting and preparing to independent travel is a real quest!
Planning a trip to Tenerife is easy:
Need to make a travel itinerary (in our case, the route was as follows: Kyiv – Barcelona – Tenerife and back)
Order tickets on famous low-cost websites (eng. , low cost) airlines (flight to Barcelona – the website of the low-cost airline Wizzair, flight from Barcelona to Tenerife – the site of the most famous low-cost airline in Europe (the ticket from Barcelona to Tenerife cost only 25 euros! )
Book a hotel or apartment (the most famous and trusted sites that I always use. For booking hotels – Booking.com , for booking apartments – Airbnb )
If there is no visa, then apply and get a visa. As a rule, it is required that air tickets and hotel are booked.
Book flights and hotels in advance (1-2 months or more in advance) . Then the cost is much lower. For example, a ticket from Barcelona to Tenerife, bought on the airline’s website for 2 months, cost only 25 euros . And a week before departure, the ticket price increased to 70 euros .
All low-cost airlines have the right to reschedule a flight for several hours. Therefore, it is impossible for the connection between flights to be small. This may seem like a minus … But in fact, for us, this “minus” turned out to be a plus. We got two trips in one (both to the Canary Islands and to Barcelona). You too can stay for 1 night in Barcelona. This is a fantastic city! We walked 2 days in Barcelona on the way to Tenerife and 2 days on the way back. Next, I will tell you in more detail about how you can see all the sights of Barcelona in a few days.
Take hand luggage only. This will allow you to save money on flights and travel light! Please note that the size of the bag or suitcase that you take on the plane for FREE must be no larger than 42 X 32 X 25 cm – in Wizz Air and 50 X 40 X 20 cm – in .
Don’t be afraid to book hostels in Barcelona . Hostels in Barcelona are actually small hotels with private rooms. The fact is that hotels in Barcelona are expensive and even the cost of a hostel starts from 40-50 euros for a room for 2. We stayed at Pension Miami . This is a nice little hotel with friendly staff right in the center of Barcelona.
A room for 2 (with a bathroom in the room) cost 50 euros in September. Can be searched using filters on Booking.com hostel is cheaper (further from the center of Barcelona).
Boqueria Market Barcelona
Where to eat cheaply in Barcelona? You can combine business with pleasure. An excursion to the famous Boqueria market on La Rambla should definitely be on the program to experience the authentic atmosphere of ancient Catalonia. You can also eat here – jamon will be cut into thin slices for you. The market has an abundance of fruits, crispy buns, sausages. You can buy freshly squeezed juice for only 1 euro.
Why do travelers not go to the south of Tenerife, but to the north? The answer is very simple. South of Tenerife – these are expensive hotels with white sand imported from Africa. Rest here is similar to rest in a luxury hotel in Turkey on the All Inclusive system. But is it really worth going so far for such a banal holiday? And in the north, in the oldest resort town of Puerto de la Cruz, you will feel all the charming atmosphere of Spain!
How to get from Tenerife South Airport to Puerto de la Cruz? There are 2 airports in Tenerife – north and south. But even if your plane takes you to the southern airport, it’s not scary. Because there is a shuttle bus from the airport. The distance from the southern airport to Puerto de la Cruz is about 95 km. The ticket costs about 10 euros. The distance from the northern airport to Puerto de la Cruz is about 38 km.
But there is another, more comfortable way (especially if you are traveling with small children), you can pre-order a taxi from the airport at very loyal prices on the site of the famous Kiwitaxi service .
Where to stay in Puerto de la Cruz? We were struck by the cheapness of hotels in this famous resort. I used to associate the Canary Islands with expensive holidays. But this is a myth! In our hotel with a swimming pool and a large beautiful area – a room of 35 sq.m. with a balcony, a bedroom and a kitchen-studio cost only 25 euros at the end of September. By the way, when I was choosing a hotel, I noticed that almost all hotels have a small kitchen in the rooms. We fell in love with our hotel. We liked that from the hotel we had to go down to the sea along a pedestrian street, pass cafes, shops, beautiful houses with carved balconies. You can see all hotels in Puerto de la Cruz.
Here is the view from the window of our apartment on the courtyard of our hotel
When is the best time to relax in Tenerife? Here the air temperature is from 20 to 26 degrees all year round. Therefore, people do not have batteries or air conditioners. Nets on the windows are also not needed, because for some reason there are no mosquitoes here. Simply wonderful living conditions! The most ideal time to relax is early autumn. We were at the end of September. The air temperature was 25 degrees. The water in the ocean was also about the same temperature. The whole city was covered in flowers. We walked only on foot, enjoying the color of the Canarian streets with colorful houses and carved balconies.
3. Tenerife attractions
The main attraction is the city of Puerto de la Cruz itself. It is absolutely different from other tourist centers. There are few hotels here and you involuntarily find yourself in the unhurried philistine life of the indigenous people, who do not bow to tourists, as is often the case in resorts. In this city you feel not like a tourist, but like a visiting relative.
Black sand on the beaches of Puerto de la Cruz. Black sand is the hallmark of Tenerife. It is of volcanic origin. I have no idea why it was necessary to bring white sand to the south of Tenerife, because this is such a banal thing, it is on all the beaches of the world. Be sure to take pictures on the black sand beach!
ATTENTION! If you want to bring black sand as a souvenir, then keep in mind that this is prohibited. For my friend, I poured some sand into the pockets of my jeans and thus quietly carried it on board the plane :)))
Lago Martianez artificial lakes with sea water. Were built back in the 70s with the participation of the famous architect Cesar Manrique. It is surprisingly beautiful and cozy here – fountains, flowers, palm trees, cafes, sun loungers. When the ocean is raging, you can relax here. The cost of a ticket for the whole day is only 3 euros.
Lago Martianez
This is an extraordinary beauty garden and zoo. Every year, all the countries of the European Union allocate an amount with many zeros so that work is carried out here to restore many endangered species of birds, animals and plants.
More than 1000 different native plants have been collected in Loro Park. There are several theaters on the water with shows of killer whales, dolphins, fur seals. And even a parrot show. There are several performances per day lasting 30 minutes. Be sure to go to Loropark, even if the price seems high to you. You will not regret. An adult ticket costs 34 euros, a child ticket costs 23. Opening hours: from 8:30 to 18:45.
Loro Park
Teide volcano is an important attraction in Tenerife. It is known that Columbus, Cook, Darwin admired this volcano. Tourists try to visit it. We left this peak at 3718 m to conquer for the next trip. We definitely want to come to the Canary Islands again.
Tenerife Teide
Ancient wine storage about. Tenerife Casa del Vino is only 10 min. drive from Puerto de la Cruz in the town of El Sauzal. It has a tasting room, a wine museum and a restaurant serving Canarian cuisine.
Architectural highlights of Puerto de la Cruz. This is an old square. Charco, on it is a statue of the Holy Virgin Mary. There is also the Nuestra Senora de la Pena de Francia church, where weddings are held at night. Abaco’s house – Casa Abaco, it houses a museum of Canarian architecture.
Miranda’s house – Casa de Miranda, now it houses a restaurant and a souvenir shop. Castle of San Felipe, Royal Customs – Casa de la Real, a small local fishing port.
Entertainment in Puerto de la Cruz. The most cheerful, crowded streets are the embankment, Charco Square, Quintana, Santo Domingo, San Telmo streets.
The Fiesta Canaria Concert Hall hosts shows of Canarian folklore, the Andromeda restaurant, the Taoro casino host evening shows in the style of Moulin Rouge. There is a wonderful Blue Not Jazz bar and famous discos – Castillo, Victoria, Joy, h3O, Playa, Jockey Night Club Cabaret.
The beaches of Puerto de la Cruz. The city has 2 large beaches for tourists with unique black sand – Playa Martianez and Playa Jardin. Martianez Beach (Playa Martianez) is wilder and less equipped, it is not protected from the waves and it does not have sun loungers, but it has fewer people. Jardin beach (Playa Jardin) has everything for a comfortable stay – showers, changing rooms, cafes, honey. paragraph. And protected from the waves by a powerful concrete breakwater. There are lakes (pools) with sea water Martianez, which I wrote about above. And we also found one beach – city. It is quite small (between the Martianez lakes and the Jardin beach). Very colorful, locals rest on it. The beach is not black sand, but volcanic rocks.
Where to eat in Puerto de la Cruz? Prices in cafes and restaurants on the waterfront are higher than far from the sea. In small cute cafes not far from our hotel, food was often served to us by the owners of the establishments themselves. The prices are ridiculous, and the portions are huge – you can take 1 serving of paella for two.
Seafood pizza, freshly caught and grilled dorado fish – delicious. I also fell in love with Sangria. We bought it in supermarkets. The price is about 1 euro for 1.5 liters. You won’t try such delicious Sangria here 🙁

Find out what tourists think about Tenerife! Reviews about the rest, the choice of hotel and beach, weather review. Prices and tips for 2019.
Tenerife is a paradise in the Canary Islands. Not so long ago, rest here was a bright dream of any inhabitant of the post-Soviet space. I wonder how the travelers’ expectations were justified, is the island as good as they write about it in tourist booklets? We analyzed the reviews of tourists about Tenerife in 2018 and highlighted the most important.
Tenerife reviews: general impressions even black, warm ocean, comfortable beaches. The weather conditions are so favorable that you can visit the island all year round.
True, travelers complained about the slow Internet, and this applies to any part of the island. Perhaps such a policy is aimed at ensuring that people have a little rest from high technologies.
Reviews of hotels in Tenerife
Hotels on the island, judging by the responses, are designed for a variety of categories of tourists – there are luxurious five-star hotels, where there are no complaints from vacationers, and two- and three-star hotels, where not bad, but not all so smooth. By the way, we recommend searching for hotels in the Canary Islands on the Roomguru.ru metasearch engine, which searches among several leading booking systems at once and finds the best price.
According to the reviews of tourists in 2018, in Tenerife, most hotels were highly rated, regardless of the star rating and cost of living. Vacationers appreciated the level of service, good in most cases, the location of the hotel, but at the same time noted some shortcomings.
The Iberostar Anthelia 5* hotel in Costa Adeje deserves the best ratings among tourists. The hotel is suitable for families with infants. Large well-groomed territory, swimming pools, restaurants, mini-club for children and other services, two beaches with black and white sand nearby. Excellent European cuisine, extensive Spanish wine list.
People who crave a relaxing holiday recommend Jardines De Nivaria 5* in Costa Adeje. The hotel is located near the beach and promenade, close to the airport – 20 minutes drive. The rooms are always clean, excellent cuisine, two swimming pools, SPA. Young people will be bored here, because there is no animation and noisy discos.
Judging by the reviews of tourists for 2018, the Sol Tenerife 4 * hotel in Playa de las Americas is quite popular with our compatriots. Excellent beach in front of the hotel, excellent cuisine, well-groomed territory, many services for children, cafes and shops. There are noisy streets nearby, so you need to choose your room carefully.
A fly in the ointment deserved a resort complex of apartments Playa de Las Americas – Flamingo Club 3 *. The hotel stands on the first coastline, a beach with light sand. Animation at a high level, shops and cafes, near the port and the yacht club. The rooms have a kitchen. But people complained about the inattentive attitude of the guides, the noise of the parties, as well as the dishonest tricks of the hotel management regarding the timeshare service. As tourists warn, there is too much false information, and the price of the offer leaves much to be desired.
The Los Cardones budget apartment complex in Playa de las Americas has received its share of negative reviews, although the reviews are generally good. Vacationers complained about insufficient cleanliness, old furniture, sometimes unsanitary conditions in the rooms, problems with hot water, indifferent behavior of staff, and attempts at theft were recorded. Obviously, the hotel is designed for a very unpretentious tourist.

If you plan to visit other Canary Islands as well, we recommend that you read the detailed article about where information about food and hotel prices, transport, weather and reviews is collected.
Most tourists note the European level of prices in Tenerife. Souvenirs and household items with food are quite affordable. But what is inexpensive for a European is not always suitable for our compatriot, so some travelers tried to limit their expenses by avoiding visiting local cafes and restaurants. The average check in a cafe for a lunch with wine is about 20-25 euros per person. Expensive excursions and prices for entrance tickets to attractions – from 30 to 60 euros per person.
The island is a tax-free zone, everything can be bought a little cheaper than on the continent. Shops delight shoppers with discounts, some items of famous brands can be bought at a 60-70% discount. The central street of the town of Playa de Las Americas – the Golden Mile – is popular with vacationers, there are many multi-brand stores. The largest number of shopping centers and shops is located in the capital of the island, Santa Cruz.
Beaches and resorts in Tenerife
Judging by the reports, our compatriots prefer to relax on the south coast of Tenerife, here the weather conditions are milder and the infrastructure is well developed – this situation will not change in 2019year. The most popular resorts are Playa de Las Americas and Costa Adeje. The latter is preferred by lovers of respectable rest.
A relatively inexpensive place in Tenerife – Puerto de la Cruz. Low prices attract a large number of tourists, many rent transport here or stay in a tent city.
The general impression of the cities of the island, according to the responses, is very clean. Sidewalks are washed, flower beds are decorated. All beaches are public, you need to pay 3-5 euros for a sunbed with an umbrella. Every morning the beaches are cleaned with special equipment, the shores are perfectly clean.
According to the reviews of tourists in 2018, in Tenerife the best beach is located in Las Americas – Playa del Duc. Clean, picturesque, with perfectly clear water and light sand. Las Vistas Beach is located right behind the port of Los Cristianos and extends towards Las Americas. Very long, wide, water – the color of azure.
Playa Jardin is famous for its exotic black beaches – spacious, well-equipped, with a waterfall on one of the plots. The very beautiful and quiet black beach of San Marcos is located near Puerto de la Cruz.
According to tourists, holidays with children in Tenerife exceed all expectations. You can safely go to the island with a small child: there is no danger of getting infected, which is typical for most exotic resorts, or being bitten by insects or snakes. In addition, the pleasant climate is very well tolerated by children. Tourists also note the high level of service and good food. A whole network of entertainment has been created for children in Tenerife – zoos, water parks, dolphinariums, theaters and shows of marine animals and more.
Many tourists noted that excellent wines can be purchased on the island for around 5-10 euros per bottle. Experienced travelers recommend bringing Malvasia wine and palm honey as a souvenir. It is better to buy pearls in special centers where certificates are provided for the goods.
The island is very comfortable on your own. To do this, it is enough to buy a card and rent a transport or hire a driver for the whole day. You can rent any vehicle – bicycles, scooters and cars, the cost depends on the brand and year of manufacture. Excursions are more profitable to buy for several days.
In general, holidays in Tenerife, according to tourists for 2018, are primarily suitable for those who love nature and a relaxing pastime without night races in clubs and discos. Perhaps that is why there are so many European pensioners and couples with children on the island.
At present, Spain is no more dangerous than any other country. The most serious problem is bag theft and pickpocketing. Therefore, we advise you not to carry large sums of money with you. If you intend to make a large purchase, do not put money in a lady’s handbag – it can be torn off by motorcyclist thieves passing by. Leave all valuables in the hotel safe. When you check in, hotel employees may ask you for an identity card (passport) and write out the data necessary for registration from it, but under no pretext have the right to detain your documents. If you are staying in a hotel, it is more economical to make phone calls from street booths or call centers. Hotels have the right to set mark-ups for telephone calls and are happy to use this right. When making a long-distance car trip in Spain, try to plan your trip in such a way that you are on the road from 2 to 4 in the afternoon. At this time, the Spaniards are used to having lunch, and most autotourists (and, most importantly, truck drivers) will eat at roadside restaurants, and you can rush along almost empty roads with a breeze. It is forbidden to take pictures at military bases, in the areas of military ports, police, military and government employees. If you want to take pictures of locals, ask permission first. If you decide to have a bite or something to drink in an unfamiliar city, do not rush to go to the first bar or restaurant that comes across. If there are no visitors at all, this is a clear sign that something is not quite right with the institution, and it is not popular with local residents. Possible reasons are food and drink fraud, hygiene problems, uncleanliness in settlements with visitors. In a restaurant, you should round up the amount and add 5-10% to the waiter. The maid should be tipped the day after arrival, a few days later and before departure. Having arrived for a short time in a major Spanish city (Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia), it is better to travel around it by public transport than by your own car or taxi. You will be able to spend more time seeing the sights of the city than in traffic jams. It is best to use the metro – this will allow you to be as close as possible to the purpose of your trip. If you intend to travel to several places, it is better to buy a ticket for 10 trips – each trip will cost you almost half the price. You can use a ticket for 10 trips not only on the metro, but also on buses. Approximately the same applies to urban transport in other major Spanish cities. If you are stopped by the Highway Patrol and asked to be tested for alcohol, never refuse the test, whether you have been drinking or not. Even if the test shows that the alcohol limit is exceeded, in the worst case, you will be subject to administrative punishment. Refusal to check is a criminal act with all the ensuing consequences. Do not try to find public toilets in Spanish cities, they are practically non-existent, except perhaps at train stations and bus stations. Feel free to go to the nearest bar or restaurant. If there are several visitors in the institution, calmly go deeper into the room and look for the treasured door. If there are practically no visitors, you may have to order something first – a cup of coffee, a glass of beer or a soft drink.

Every time we come abroad, and especially closer to the end of the trip, we face a dilemma: what is the dilemma? bring something like this home to please yourself and your friends for a long memory. Arriving in the Canary Islands, and specifically in Tenerife, you run the risk of going crazy with the abundance of bright and colorful souvenirs for every taste and budget, but you should know that most of those presented are Chinese consumer goods and it is important to know what exactly is worth buying and what is not worth buying pay attention at all.
The Canary Islands are known, first of all, for their first-class wine, namely the famous malvasia (malvasia) – obtained from white grapes grown in special conditions, thanks to which the wine acquires a unique and very rich taste. Malvasia was preferred by many historical celebrities such as Shakespeare, Byron, Walter Scott and even the first US President George Washington. To this day, this type of wine is extremely popular with tourists from all over the world. You can buy it in any supermarket (price from 7 €), but we strongly advise you to go for a tasting in the small town of Icod de los Vinos, famous for its Canarian vineyards, only here you will have the opportunity to taste the wine, before than to buy it.

Canary Islands – a paradise for tourists – Interesting about Spain
Getting to a real island – who did not dream about it in childhood, reading adventure novels?! Making discoveries, going on adventures, experiencing exotic travels – it would seem, what could be better? It only became clear with age: there are no white spots on the map for a long time, there are no undiscovered islands left, and the seashore, so mysterious and alluring in childhood, turns out to be an ordinary beach for verification – with sun loungers, umbrellas and a bar.
Of course, all this also has its own charm, and over the past two decades, Russians have mastered the most famous beaches on the planet: from Turkish Antalya to Mexican Acapulco. But I still want to realize a childhood dream! Set out on a journey, become a trailblazer, remember yourself and show the children what it is like to blaze a path along a lost path, navigate the terrain, sleep under the stars and sit by the fire…
And, of course, our ideas about the necessary level of comfort have changed with us . So any adventure should be not only exciting, but also enjoyable! And most importantly – feasible both for ourselves and for our loved ones.
Cozy Islands
Fortunately, there are places on the world map where all of the above is possible! And you don’t even have to climb into the unknown jungle: the desired happiness is not so far away, halfway from cozy Europe to sultry and exotic Africa. We are talking about the Canary Islands: a volcanic archipelago belonging to Spain, located in the Atlantic Ocean, not far from the northwestern coast of the “black continent”.
For a long time holidays in Spain and the Canary Islands were something mythical for us. Even today, very few Russians can boast of having visited this piece of paradise. But in vain! After all, the local climate – mild, comfortable, as if specially designed for recreation – is rightfully considered the best in the world!
Friendly people, delicious national cuisine, numerous monuments of architecture and nature – everything here is at the service of tourists. But most importantly – in the Canary Islands you can not just bask on the beach! The developed infrastructure of active tourism allows travelers to go in search of adventure without any risk.
And you won’t get bored from repeating the same routes either: the bizarre relief and the unique natural conditions of the islands made it possible to lay hundreds of different hiking trails here. So any family can choose adventures to their taste: according to the length of the path, the difficulty of the obstacles encountered on it, the duration of the trip, the degree of comfort that the guides will offer.
Only one thing is invariable: this is the intensity of emotions that await everyone who has visited the Canary Islands! After all, here, at the junction of continents and civilizations, people have a real chance to experience previously unknown sensations, merge with nature, discover something new in themselves and in their friends and loved ones!
Mysterious Islands
Tenerife is the largest island of the Canary archipelago. Anaga Natural Park is located here, which is dotted with rare plant species – the famous blue laurel forests and huge ferns. In the park, travelers will be offered to follow the route “Tropa de los Sentidos”. Your journey will start at Cruz del Carmen, which has a tourist information center where guests can get route information. Following the trail, tourists can enjoy the picturesque and rich nature, as well as see how the locals live and visit architectural monuments.
A distinctive feature of the island Gran Canaria is one of the most emblematic places – the rock of Roque Nublo. There is a 4.8 km route to this rock, which is ideal for walking with children. The route runs through sacred places where travelers can get acquainted with one of the most impressive natural monuments – volcanic rocks and a real crater.
Island La Palma is one of the youngest islands in the archipelago. It was formed during the eruption of an underwater volcano, located at a depth of 4000 meters below sea level. La Palma is the third highest island in the world in relation to its area, which has been declared a World Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO. A significant part of the island is covered with pine and laurel forests, and a chain of volcanoes runs from the center to its southernmost part.
The island of La Palma is crossed by a network of prepared hiking trails stretching over a thousand kilometers. The route, which is called “Volcanoes of Tenegia”, has a medium-low level of difficulty, it passes all the time on the descent from the mountain, through an amazing landscape formed as a result of the last volcanic eruption in 1973.
Island La Gomera will surprise tourists with its rocky reliefs, with deep gorges flowing into the sea. The almost untouched nature of the island is strewn with historical monuments that envelop the atmosphere of being of people who lived here centuries ago. Hiking route “Las Ayas – Las Creses” – ideal for spending time with the whole family. You start your walk through fabulous and mysterious places through green valleys covered with palm forests, pastures and low mountains from the chapel of Ermita de las Ayas. After 3 kilometers you will be able to make a halt in a small grove, which has tables for picnic and rest in front of the upcoming road.
El Hierro is a real paradise, strewn with lush vegetation, impressive high cliffs and washed by the clear waters of the Atlantic. It is part of the worldwide network of European Biosphere Reserves. In the town of El Pinar, where dates and almonds grow, one of the most popular routes of the island, the Path de la Llanya, is located. Depending on the mood of your family, you can choose one of three route options that differ in length: the shortest is 4.5 kilometers, and the longest will take you 7 kilometers. The choice is yours!
The most popular place – which cannot be deprived of the attention of the guests of the island Lanzarote – Cave de los Verdes. Accompanied by a guide, not only adults, but also the youngest travelers can overcome the 2-kilometer route. At the end of the route, a tunnel of volcanic origin awaits you, passing between caves and underground galleries. This journey into the bowels of the Earth will not leave indifferent any member of your family!
One of the smallest islands in the Canaries archipelago is a volcanic and uninhabited island Lobos , which is less than 5 kilometers away. The age of the island is estimated to be between 6,000 and 8,000 years old. Lobos, despite its tiny size, will impress visitors with black volcanic sand beaches. But Lobos is not only about the sun and the beach, which is suitable for water sports. On this island, you can enjoy the scenery of wide plains, and impressive dunes, which overlook the uninhabited virgin island – a special conservation area for birds.
Treasure Islands
Traveling along the routes of the Canaries, inquisitive and curious travelers who are not afraid of trials will be able to find real, incomparable riches: good mood, unique impressions, memories of an amazing vacation!
Thoughts of such a holiday will warm you in the coldest months. And you will surely want to return to the Canary Islands to rediscover them, island after island! After all, this archipelago, so changeable and so constant, seems to be specially created in order to serve as the embodiment of a dream and inspire hope. I hope that the scattering of colorful islands that appeared under the wing of the plane will turn out to be a real treasure: thus, that we have been for so long – since childhood! – searched unsuccessfully in this vast world.

Holidays in Gran Canaria – 5 most beautiful places written Per Vium
Holidays in Gran Canaria – visit Melenara
Many Danes have holidayed in Gran Canaria and they are the Canary Islands something in itself, although in fact Spain. Gran Canaria is not only Gran Canaria; so here are some insider tips on the island. We start in Melenare.
Melenara is a small local town with a great beach. It is located between the airport and the capital Las Palmas. That is, on the east coast. The Spaniards themselves come here and they can enjoy the beautiful sandy beach.
If you want to stay cheap, the city has Hostel Albacar Melenara, located 400 meters from the beach area. Along the beach there are good fish restaurants and cozy cafes.
The sand is black, and one theory is that the Canary Islands have just chosen sand that doesn’t initially attract northern European tourists. A characteristic feature of Melenara is a large statue of Neptune standing in the water.
Find cheap flights to Gran Canaria here.
Saint Augustine
San Agustin is located east of the famous Playa del Inglés. A popular beach in San Agustin with black sand. There are large beach hotels along the beach. There are also bungalows, and some of them can be rented on AirBNB and other portals.
There are no high mountains in San Agustin – and therefore there is almost never a shadow. Unlike, for example, the popular Puerto Rico, located between two very high mountain slopes. It provides shade in the morning or afternoon, depending on the location of the hotel. In San Augustin, you can enjoy the sun all day long.
San Agustín is a hub for several bus routes and is easily accessible by public transport. The transport hub is within walking distance of the beach and most hotels.
The area has a shopping center with many restaurants. Maybe a bit too much, but the competition is great and the prices are low.
Find all the best car rental rates here
Arguineguin
Arguineguin is located seven kilometers south of the popular city of Puerto Rico – on the southwest coast. There are many, many hours of sunshine all year round.
Unlike Puerto Rico, for example, this is a real city with a lot of locals. Arguineguin has a harbor and next to it you will find a beautiful beach. Arguineguin has plenty of local bars and restaurants, and the city is deep into the mountains.
If you are booking an apartment in the city, check the location. Many apartments are located several kilometers in the mountains, and walking is a long way – especially home…
A special attraction for bathing guests is the beautiful beach of Patalavaca, located north of Arguineguin. You can walk to it in 20 minutes.

Tasarte and Venegera – more holidays in Gran Canaria
Do you want to experience magnificent nature and high in the sky? Then enter the country.
Take the freeway towards Mogan. When it stops, turn right towards the city of Mogan itself. After a few kilometers the road splits into two parts. You need to turn left onto the GC-200. Now you are driving up the side of the mountain, and after five or ten minutes you have reached the top, and on the other side a magnificent landscape begins.
The districts are called Tasarte and Venegera.
There are several places where you can stay in small rest areas and you should definitely do this. In good weather, this is a completely unique adventure. After that, you can return back along the same road or continue north and go around Gran Canaria in a clockwise direction.
It takes at least an hour to travel around the island, but it is unique because you pass through many pictures and types of cities.
Find accommodation offers in Veneger here.
Vecindario
The city is located 10 km south of Las Palmas airport and was seen by many from the highway heading south. Vecindario is a real city and has a lot of locals living in it. It has a pleasant atmosphere, many shops, bars and restaurants.
Hotel Elba Vecindario – four-star and very beautiful. Absolutely reasonable prices, nice rooms with a balcony – and last but not least: a rooftop pool!
Avenida de Canarias is even cheaper and less nature oriented. Great hotel with cheap breakfast buffet. There is no beach in Vecindario, but by car or bus you will quickly reach the aforementioned San Agustin.
