Entertainment Tenerife
Boat trips
For those who love the fresh sea breeze, waves and get a lot of pleasure from contemplating the sea landscapes, one of the best entertainment will be a boat trip in Tenerife.
In the company of friends, on a yacht, catamaran or pirate ship, under the guidance of an experienced captain, you will go on an exciting journey. nine0005
A boat trip in Tenerife can be very different, you can go to the shores of Los Gigantes, watch dolphins, whales and sea turtles. Some boats for sea trips in Tenerife have a transparent bottom, which allows you to see the inhabitants of the ocean in their natural environment.
Dolphins and whales
Many people wonder if they will see dolphins and whales accurately. As local guides joke, they have dolphins in their salary, so you can almost always see them. And not just to catch a glimpse, but to get a lot of pleasure watching their games, jumping, etc. Off the coast of the Playa de Las Americas resort, or rather between the islands of La Gomera and Tenerife, you can see black dolphins, and near Los Gigantes there is a high probability see bottlenose dolphins. With whales, the situation is more complicated, here, with luck, you can either see or not. The situation is similar with sea turtles. But even if you are not lucky to see everything you wanted, the boat trip itself in Tenerife will leave an unforgettable experience. nine0005
Fishing
Representatives of the strong half of humanity will enjoy a boat trip in Tenerife with the opportunity to go fishing, since the coastal waters are rich in fish. An experienced captain knows the places where fish is well caught, so it is almost impossible to be left without a catch.
Sea fishing in Tenerife
Landscapes
It is very interesting to see Tenerife from the sea, the boat trip offers magnificent views of Playa de Las Americas, Costa Adeje, Los Gigantes and Los Cristianos, the beaches, mountains and the Teide volcano itself. Going on a boat trip in Tenerife, you should definitely take a camera or video camera, photos and videos will turn out great. nine0005
Safety of boat trips
All boat trips in Tenerife are organized at the highest level, everything is done to ensure that people get the maximum pleasure from the trip.
Boat trips in Tenerife are carried out only with the appropriate license. All boats intended for sea trips are carefully checked. If the weather is bad or a storm is possible, the yacht or catamaran will never go out into the ocean.
Where to order?
Individual tours
Yacht charter
Sea fishing
Group tours
You can order a boat trip to see whales and dolphins in Tenerife from three ports: the port of Los Cristianos, the port of Puerto Colon and the port of Los Gigantes. Tickets are on sale in the same place, in pavilions. Many sellers speak Russian. On average, a sea excursion takes two hours, sometimes three, depending on the company. Each port has several companies that sell their tours at different times, so if you arrive late, you won’t have to wait long. nine0005
Live on a volcano
Almost the entire central part of Tenerife is occupied by the Teide National Park and the volcano of the same name (by the way, he is the champion – he holds the title of the highest peak in Spain, 3718 m above sea level).
The scenery gets more amazing as the road goes up. Emerald slopes, where pine trees grow (the islanders are proud of them), are replaced by lava fields: anthracite, like plowed black soil, and terracotta where iron ore came to the surface of the earth along with magma. nine0005
From the mark of 2356 m to the summit, almost to the crater of the volcano, tourists are delivered by a funicular (approx. 27 EUR). It does not work every day – it depends on the weather (there are strong winds at altitude).
Teide National Park
But if you find yourself at an altitude of 3555 m, the scenery opens up incredible, and the clouds seem to be easy to touch with your hand. From indescribable sensations (and a little from the lack of oxygen at altitude) my head is spinning!
After descending from the “Moon” to the earth, plan a walk through the colonial towns of Orotava, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Puerto de la Cruz and La Laguna. What a pleasure to look at colorful houses with openwork wooden balconies in the Canarian style (you will not meet two alike!) And enjoy the resort atmosphere. nine0005
And, of course, without beach pleasures! With all the love for the golden sand, which is also here, do not miss the chance to get to know the real volcanic black sand beaches. They say that such sand charges with special energy.
No ocean experience is complete without sailing and whale watching. Black pilot whales follow the yacht, snorting and making high-pitched sounds.
A dolphin adhering to a flock masterfully chases a school of fish — everything is visible tens of meters deep in the crystal clear ocean water. nine0005
To the center of the earth
Black volcanic sand and white houses with azure or green doors and shutters – in such a contrast, all the cities of the island of Lanzarote look fabulous.
Thanks to the legendary islander, artist Cesar Manrique, a number of laws regarding architecture were passed here: any buildings fit into the volcanic landscape without changing it. By the way, the uniqueness of the landscapes allowed Lanzarote to receive the significant title of the Biosphere Reserve!
The cosmic landscapes of the protected Timanfaya National Park (another name for the Fire Mountains) served as the backdrop for George Lucas’ Star Wars. nine0005
Just admire hundreds of volcanoes of various shades, frozen seas of lava, cracks in the earth’s crust, through which, it seems, a stream of magma is about to pour from the very center of the Earth.
House-museum of a peasant in Lanzarote – one of the works of César Manrique
El Diablo restaurant demonstrates how close the fiery “underworld” is here: they cook food in the volcanic heat of 600ºС, placing grills over a crevice well!
The name Los Ervideros is also translated “demonically”: boiling cauldrons. Once in this place, hot lava met the ocean. Hissing and exploding, she spawned new bizarre rocks. Walking along the paths near the coast, take a closer look: in the lava stones you can find inclusions of chrysolite – an olive-colored semi-precious stone. nine0005
For chrysolite jewelry and other souvenirs, we recommend going to the Sunday market in the town of Teguise. All kinds of aloe vera cosmetics are also sold here (plantations of the plant are scattered throughout the island).
But Canarian specialties – mojo sauce, palm honey and goat cheese are better to buy in a regular supermarket in the capital city of Arrecife, it will be cheaper.
A vivid impression
We recommend dedicating one of the days to a sea excursion. From the port of Orsola in the northern part of the island, go to the island of La Graciosa and there, transfer to a pleasure catamaran, keep your way to a secluded sandy beach in a cozy lagoon. nine0005 Black pilot whales escort

Those who are bored with a relaxing holiday can go kayaking or snorkeling (tour organizers bring everything they need with them), www.

The Unspoilt Guide to Fuerteventura, Canary Islands
Isla de Lobos, Fuerteventura
Fuerteventura is the second largest of the Spanish Canary Islands in the Atlantic. Not far from the coast of Africa, it’s a true desert island—in the sandy sense of the word—with vast dunes and over 150km of delicious beach. A reliable destination for pasty Northern Europeans to top up their vitamin D levels during the winter, myself included.
It may the second largest island but development is fairly restrained compared to Gran Canaria and Tenerife. Much quieter than its popular neighbours, resorts here are modest and family-friendly, with the north of the island popular with Brits and the south with Germans.
It’s also the nearest island to Morocco and this is reflected in its arid landscape and dry climate. It has the least amount of rainfall of all the islands. The landscape is barren and windswept, although a bit softer and less geologically weird than its neighbour Lanzarote. If you’re looking for white sandy beaches and turquoise seas but a short flight from Europe then Fuerteventura should be top of your list. The trade-off is that you may be blasted by strong winds as well as a strong Saharan sun. In fact, the name Fuerteventura is sometimes translated as ‘strong winds’, although the breeze helps keep it cool through its 3000 hours of sunshine a year.

VIBE
Fuerteventura is an intriguing blend of intensity and nothingness. More rugged and windy than it appears in photos, but with a noticeable gentility and contentedness amongst its inhabitants. After goats ate all of the vegetation on the island – leading to its desertification – the only agriculture that remains is goat farming and aloe vera, so the population never reached the levels of the other islands.
Locals here may be outnumbered by foreigners, but everyone looks extremely happy to be here. Endless blue skies and seas mean towns are full of expats and chilled out surfers with contagious smiles. People come to Fuerteventura for the elements and simplicity of life. It’s all about the wind and the waves here.
The west coast of the island is gloriously wild, whereas the clean and gentle east coast waters are perfect for kids.
Dusty, barren, windy, with whitewashed towns. You won’t find rowdy groups on lads’ holidays here, even the developed resorts are low key and targeting families with small kids or older couples. Many of the package tourists don’t stray inland, save for the odd jeep safari or day-trip to Betancuria for a token bit of culture, leaving the rust coloured undulating hills peaceful and free for exploring.
Development along the coast is fairly restrained, especially since it was made part of the UNESCO Biosphere and Starlight Reserve in 2009. Large swathes of beach are either protected or too wild for resort development.

WHICH AREA TO STAY ON FUERTEVENTURA
For a complete rundown on accommodation options, including a guide to Fuerteventura’s beach resorts, check out Where to Stay on Fuerteventura: An Ultimate Resort Guide.
For a quick overview, read on . . .
The administrative capital of Fuerteventura is Puerto del Rosario, but most visitors head for one of the larger beach towns such as Corralejo (in the north east), Caleta de Fuste (in the middle of the island, just south of the airport), Morro Jable or Jandia (in the south). Puerto del Rosario was only named the capital in 1860 so you won’t find much in the way of historical buildings here, head to the historic capital of Betancuria instead.
Corralejo. I stayed in Corralejo (pronounced ‘coral echo’), a relaxed resort town in the north about 40 minutes drive from the airport. At its centre is a small old harbour town, with accommodation spreading out along some of the best beaches on the island. It’s also the watersports capital, with the many of the surfing outfits based here. Tourist tat and tacky bars are mainly confined to one strip. I found it a little lacking in atmosphere, but it is conveniently located, has good bus connections and plenty of cheap accommodation options. The famous sand dunes are a 30-minute walk as long as you can brave the wind.
El Cotillo is a traditional fishing village on the north-west of the island. It has a unique feel thanks to its proximity to beautiful lagoons, pirate connections, wild winds, beautiful sunsets, good surf spots, and some of the best seafood on the island. But it can feel a bit quiet, windy, and cut off out of season, serving as a stopping point for campervans and surf schools.
If you’re looking for boutique accommodation, the most interesting options are inland, in the triangle formed by the small villages of Lajares, Villaverde, and La Oliva.Thanks to their cheap prices and prime location with the coast accessible in three directions, these villages have become a popular base for surfers and a quietly bohemian vibe is flourishing. They are small though, so if you’re looking for evening entertainment you would be better off on the coast.
Caleta de Fuste in the centre is the best base for families. Another English holidaymaker favourite, it has a long strip of man-made beach with great facilities.
Jandia. The Jandia peninsula at the southern tip of the island has one fantastic long beach that encompasses the popular resorts of Costa Calma, Playas de Jandia, and Morro Jables. It’s more popular with German holidaymakers than English tourists, and the bar/restaurant scene reflects this.
FOOD
Canarian cuisine is simple and big on fish, goat, and goat’s cheese. There is no shortage of local cheese in the supermarkets here, I particularly enjoyed the smoked variety.
Potatoes here are cooked in salt water, boiled away to leave a salty residue on the wrinkly tatties and called papas arrugadas, and served alongside a red mojo picon or green mojo verde sauce. There is no shortage of goat or the famous local Majorero goat’s cheese. Another Canarian speciality is gofio – an ancient kind of maize. Try it in a thickened chickpea stew.
My favourite find was almogrote, a spread made from peppers and goat’s cheese.
I was delighted to discover lapas (limpets) on the menu in Fuerteventura. Not commonly eaten in the UK but considered a delicacy in Portugal, I became a fan whilst in the Azores, where I watched locals pluck them straight out of a bucket and eat them raw. But they’re also good cooked with garlic, lemon, and herbs.
Foodies should check out this food tour which takes in various agricultural stops and tastings.
Restaurants in the resort towns can tend towards the typical international tourist fare. Being a fishing village, the fish restaurants in El Cotillo are of good quality and have sunset views.
Corralejo Playa Grande
BEACHES
Corralejo. There are a few town beaches in Corralejo which are good for kids, but for space and spectacle head south to the 10km Playa Grande backed by sand dunes.
La Concha. A beautiful sheltered bay with white sand and turquoise waters at El Cotillo.
El Castillo. A wide organised beach with plenty for the kids to do at Caleta de Fuste.
Cofete. For a touch of wilderness, head to the 12km Cofete on Fuerteventura’s west coast. It’s backed by the Jandia mountains and accessible only by a dirt track. With strong winds and currents it’s not suitable for children or swimming, but worth it if you like to get off the beaten track.
Sotavento. Join the kitesurfers, Scandis and nudists at this photogenic beach in the north of the Jandia peninsula which sports a shallow tidal lagoon.
BetancuriaCorralejo dunes.
HIGHLIGHTS
Parque Natural de las Dunas de Corralejo. Who needs the Sahara when you have 11km of dunes right by the sea?
Take a surf lesson. There’s no shortage of surf outfits, particularly if you’re staying in Cofete. Or try stand-up paddleboarding. Or if you just want to soak up the surf vibe, head to El Cotillo (link) for sunset fish dinner.
Stargaze with local astrological outfit Stars By Night, who also run astrophotography sessions. Fuerteventura is a designated UNESCO Starlight Reserve, meaning it is committed to preserving the quality of light.
Isla de Lobos. This tiny island is the perfect day or half-day trip from Corralejo. Read more below.
Hiking. Tindaya – Fuerteventura’s highest point and spiritual centre – is closed to the public, you need permission from the authorities to hike this volcanic peak with its ancient carvings. Join an organised hike, or check out alternative routes which take in dry river beds and secret beaches.
Lanzarote. Playa Blanca is just a 25-minute ferry ride from Corralejo, or plenty of excursions are available if you fancy a wine and volcano tour over on neighbouring island Lanzarote.

EL COTILLO
El Cotillo is a quiet fishing village on the west coast with an offbeat feel. Much smaller than Corralejo, it can feel like the edge of the world when the wind is howling.
The Clean Ocean Project is a cool little NGO which organises beach cleans and initiatives around the reduction of plastic use. Their shops in El Cotillo and Corralejo sell incredibly fluffy bamboo t-shirts and hoodies, ideal if you’re under-dressed for the sometimes chilly Atlantic winds.
BETANCURIA
Lush gardens in BetancuriaBetancuria
The first capital of the Fuerteventura, Betancuria has a refreshingly different character to the seaside resorts and is the best place to get a taste of Canarian history and culture. Located inland to protect from invaders and still sporting some traditional architecture, as well as a few interesting museums, the first convent on the island (now abandoned), and some green things that aren’t aloe vera for a change, Betancuria is now a prime day trip destination.
The little archaeological museum gives a clue as to why there is so little on the island: goats.
It wasn’t always so. Known in classical times as the Fortunate Isles, Fuerteventura was once green and fertile, but goats and logging resulted in desertification and the island went into decline until the tourism boom in the 1970s.
Relatively little is known about the indigenous period of the Majos, before the European conquistadors arrived in the 13th and 14th centuries, as few archaeological sites have been excavated.
Casa de Santa María, a restored 17th-century house, has lovely gardens, a great restaurant, and demonstrations of traditional textiles. There’s cheese-tasting available at nearby Finca Pepe, a working farm.
ISLA DE LOBOS
Isla de Lobos
My highlight in Fuerteventura was Isla de Lobos, a tiny volcanic island just off the coast at Corralejo.
There is nothing much here which is precisely why I loved it.
Lobos is a protected ecological zone so visitors are contained to walking trails. The only settlement is at El Puertito, a few simple cottages and a restaurant with one item on the menu: fried parrot fish with potatoes and red pepper sauce.
The water is an astounding turquoise here. Lobos is just big enough to nip over on the ferry, read about the flora and fauna, walk a circuit of the island, eat a fish, have a swim, head back. The snorkelling is fantastic.
TRANSPORT
AIR
Fuerteventura Airport (El Matorral Airport), in the centre of the island, is served by international and domestic flights. The airline Binter Canarias will connect you with the other Canary Islands.
FERRY
The closest island to Fuerteventura is Lanzarote, a mere 25 minute ferry ride from Corralejo. Fuerteventura also has direct (although less frequent) ferry links to Tenerife (from Puerto del Rosario), Gran Canaria (from Puerto del Rosario and Morro Jable), and La Palma (from Puerto del Rosario).
GETTING AROUND
It’s best to rent a car in Fuerteventura if you can—the roads are easy and uncrowded. Tourism here is mainly geared towards package holidaymakers so there’s no shortage of organised trips, but locals seemed perplexed by an independent traveller not in search of a wave. The Tourist Office in Corralejo is simply a shed for tour leaflets and bus timetables.
Buses are cheap and reliable. Corralejo has bus links to Lajares, La Oliva, and El Cotillo, and Puerto del Rosario where you can change for buses to the south of the island.
BEST TIME TO VISIT?
Fuerteventura is a year-round destination with relatively little variation in weather.
Crowds:
There are two high seasons in the Canaries. December to March brings Europeans looking to escape the cold winter, and July-August brings the summer holiday crowd and Spaniards looking for respite from the mainland heat. February is Carnival time. May, June, and September are the quietest months when some family businesses close for a break, but otherwise you’ll find amenities open all year.
Weather:
Summer sees average daytime temperatures of around 26-28ºC (though sometimes much hotter, depending on the wind), with sea temperatures of around 22ºC.
Winter sees average daytime temps of 19-22ºC and sea temperatures of 19ºC. Feb-March can bring the possibility of Saharan dust storms.

Fuerteventura: the best beaches of the Canary Islands
Fuerteventura is an island with a melodic name in the Canary Islands (Spain), washed by the Atlantic Ocean. The beaches here are the longest in the entire archipelago.
Fuerteventura – 100 km from Africa
Created by volcanoes, the island is located just 100 km from Africa, from Morocco. And therefore it is considered the most “African” island of the Canary archipelago. He is also one of the “elders” here in terms of age, and in size is second only to Tenerife.
Sandy, not too “populated” beaches, stretching for many kilometers – the main reason why travelers come here. A calm beach holiday lasts almost the whole year. Ocean water temperature + 20-22 °. And you will not meet languishing heat even in hot July: you will find about +27 ° in the shade. Almost constant fresh breeze and low humidity. Rains are extremely rare. The wind is very favorable for windsurfing.
Feel like Robinson
A significant part of Fuerteventura is not inhabited and it is quite possible to feel like a Robinson. Especially if you go to Cofete Beach with untouched nature, strong winds and constant waves.
You can have a good rest from the hustle and bustle of civilization on the sand and pebble De Sota . You can also go scuba diving or surfing. Equipment included. At the same time, there are several cafes, shops, and free parking nearby.
Careta del Fustes Beach
Visit Resort Caleta de Fuste with excellent golden sandy beach, diving, surfing and windsurfing. The place is closed from the wind and is well suited for family holidays. There is also a salt museum here. Find out how it is mined from the ocean. And in the surroundings, admire the old windmills.
Another pretty village is a small historic Betancuria with snow-white houses. There was a time when she played the role of the capital of Fuerteventura.
Worth a visit Cactus Garden , where as many as 2.5 thousand species are represented.
Island capital – Puerto del Rosario , which means “Port of Roses”. There are also several beaches – sandy and rocky. Alas, there is nothing more remarkable behind the picturesque name, but you can walk along the old streets, buy original lace and souvenirs.
People and goats
There are few local people on the island, they speak Spanish. There seem to be more goats in Fuerteventura than people. It is not surprising that the goat also acts as an island symbolism.
There is no noisy nightlife and this also attracts lovers of a quiet atmosphere. However, the resort is young, intensively built up with hotels, more and more tourists arrive and, perhaps, soon the silence will remain only in memories.
The airport is located 5 km from Puerto del Rosario. You can fly from Tenerife, Barcelona, Madrid, London, Berlin and other European cities.
There are ferries from other Canary Islands.
Fuerteventura: weather, recreation, beaches
Fuerteventura – Spanish island lost in the Atlantic. This is the most “African” among the European islands. European restraint and African color are intertwined here.

Unlike Fuerteventura, the more famous neighbor of Tenerife, the place is not so noisy, but no less popular among tourists.
This paradise on Earth is chosen by lovers of a relaxing holiday.

The history of villa begins in the late 30s and early 40s of the last century, when the German merchant Gustav Winter bought the land in the area.
An industrialist built a structure whose walls resemble a medieval fortress. He fenced off the area, and round-the-clock security guarded the estate heavily. All residents living nearby were evicted.
All work that was carried out inside this closed area was carried out in complete secrecy . It was forbidden to disseminate information regarding the goals of the work being carried out. The workers of the estate were prisoners of the local concentration camp .
There are many rumors and legends about the purpose of the mysterious building . However, there is no reliable data on what the work was carried out for.
After the end of the Second World War, all traces of the process that took place in the villa were carefully destroyed.

Winter in Europe: Destinations You Need to Visit
Rovaniemi, Finland
When it comes to having a claim to fame, few places can compare to Rovaniemi, the capital city of Finnish Lapland.
If you ask me, claiming to be the official hometown of Santa Claus is quite a bold statement.
However, once you set foot in the region, it’s not easy to deny that it is enchanting. Brimming with reindeer farms, husky sledding, and ice skating rinks, it’s rather magical.
Oh, and did I mention the city’s famous Northern Lights safaris? Undoubtedly one of the real highlights of Finland in winter.

Prague, Czech Republic
The grand and epic city of Prague in winter is a strong competitor for many things. One of them is being the best city in Europe to visit in winter.
Now, while most locals flock to more sunny and warm destinations, you’d be wise to explore its city streets as the cold sets in.
Picture old-world grandeur, stunning hotels and places to stay, with heaps of culture lightly dusted by crisp white snow. Pretty majestic, isn’t it? Welcome to Prague, intrepid traveller.
Beyond the atmosphere winter brings, the nightlife here is impressive as its cosy pubs and the famous European Christmas Market are sure to keep you entertained.
Suggested Stay: Cosmopolitan Hotel Prague
Zagreb, Croatia
Come wintertime and the rise of questions like, ‘Where to go in Europe in winter?’, I’ve got a stunner for you.
The central European capital of Croatia, Zagreb. Cobbled streets within its old city quarter meeting classic baroque architecture create quite the scene.
Zagreb is also home to one of the best winter festivals in Europe. Wondering what to do in one day in Zagreb? The annual Advent in Zagreb festival brings together over 25 markets, ice skating rinks, and stunning illumination events.
And if you want some scenic beauty, take a trip to the nearby Plitvice Lakes National Park, which features 16 terraced lakes and numerous frozen waterfalls.
Suggested Stay: Swanky Mint Hotel
Tallinn, Estonia
Sitting snugly on the fringes of the Baltic Sea, you’ll find the charming city of Tallinn.
An Estonian treasure characterised by turreted castles, mediaeval churches, and decades-old merchant houses.
The city boasts one of Europe’s best-preserved historical centres and falls under UNESCO preservation.
Trust me, exploring its streets and markets in winter is whimsical, but the views from Toompea Castle are pure magic. Tallinn easily makes it amongst the best winter city breaks in Europe.
Suggested Stay: Radisson Blu Hotel Olümpia
Vienna, Austria
Regardless of the season, the capital city of Austria, Vienna, is a must-visit. But there’s something special about the facade the city wears during winter. Once you see Schönbrunn Palace and St. Charles Church dusted with snow, you’ll agree.
What’s there to do, though?
Indulge (or overindulge) in the variety of hot chocolate or sachertorte cake the city overflows with. And while doing so, attend one of the many free outdoor simulcasts of opera, or join the fun at a classical holiday concert.
Suggested Stay: Hotel Brauhof Wein
Reykjavik, Iceland
There are few destinations as perfect for a winter city break in Europe as Reykjavik.
While most other destinations simply muddle through winter, you’ll find abundant things to do in Reykjavik during the chillier months – you could even say it’s when the city is at its very best.
So much so that one of the most significant winter events, the Reykjavik Winter Lights Festival, coaxes thousands to its streets.
The hot springs of Iceland – like the gorgeous Sky Lagoon will warm you up if you want to find the perfect respite from the cold. On the other hand, so will the local Icelandic schnapps.
Suggested Stay: The Reykjavik EDITION
Budapest, Hungary
Another winter destination in Europe that gloriously embraces the season is Budapest. It’s awe-inspiring how well the best things to do in the city adapt to the colder and shorter days of winter.
What most come for in Budapest, however, is the city’s renowned thermal baths, which are a true godsend during winter.
Another way to keep warm while enjoying the city in winter is to indulge in treats like chimney cakes served by the many cafes. You can’t skip ice skating at Vajdahunyad Castle either.
Suggested Stay: Silver Hotel Budapest
Copenhagen, Denmark
The Danish concept of ‘cosiness’ or hygge, as it’s locally known, originates in Copenhagen.
It’s not hard to see why due to the splendid way the city welcomes winter. Pastry shops, cafes, and Michelin-starred restaurants in the city draw inspiration from the season, and you’ll praise them for it.
Sure, you could stay indoors, but dare to step outside. You’ll find attractions such as the Tivoli Gardens and the city’s canals bathed in a wintery glow. Then head on a sightseeing adventure to feast your eyes upon Nyhavn’s buildings set in the winter background.
Suggested Stay: Ascot Hotel Tip: Find out how to spend three days in Copenhagen with this perfect itinerary.
Venice, Italy
What happens to Venice when peak season is over?
Okay, obviously, tourist numbers drop significantly, but something else happens. A quiet, almost surreal atmosphere takes over the city as winter mist covers the canals.
So besides not having a selfie stick poking your sides in massive crowds, what else can you look forward to? Winter in Venice signals the arrival of Carnevale. One of its most famed events, you’ll witness parades of locals extravagantly dressed, brandishing ornate masks take to its streets. Two words — pure magic.
Suggested Stay: Hotel Scandinavia – Relais
Hallstatt, Austria
When you hear the term ‘storybook setting’, I bet that quite a variety of images cross your mind. One of them should be the quaint village of Hallstatt in Austria.
About an hour from Salzburg, it’s one of the best city breaks in winter in Europe.
You can expect the norm regarding winter activities, including skiing, snowshoe hiking, and horse-drawn carriage rides. However, what sets Hallstatt apart is its gorgeous 12th-century churches and the Dachstein Mountains, stunningly tinged in white snow.
Suggested Stay: Heritage Hotel Hallstatt
Amsterdam, Netherlands
What could be better than hearty Dutch food served in cosy restaurants with epic views of snow and mist-shrouded canals? Well, during winter in Amsterdam, only a handful of things. Let me be the first to say that few places personify wintery glory quite like this city.
Its list of attractions is incredible, but one stands out far above the rest.
The annual Amsterdam Light Festival is a global collaboration of the best in modern illumination displays. Each festival follows a theme, and each is unique from the previous. Think of massive drones shaped like butterflies fluttering through a snowy drizzle. And that’s just one example.
Suggested Stay: YOTEL Amsterdam
Lofoten Islands, Norway
If you’re in the mood for some hardcore winter adventures, then the Lofoten Islands of Norway beckon.
Although not for everyone, this icy region draws those yearning for serenity set to the tone of a cold winter’s day.
The perfect way to spend winter for many, indulge in picturesque coastal walks, or tackle the many hiking trails through the snow. Bring your camera, every inch of Lofoten is worthy of a buzzworthy snapshot.
Suggested Stay: Anker Brygge
Transylvania, Romania
Come on, did you think I’d skip the gothic and mysterious region of Transylvania? Exploring the many cities throughout, especially with the looming winds of winter and snow, is a one-of-a-kind adventure.
From the 100 merchants in Sibiu’s Christmas Market to the UNESCO historic centre of Sighișoara and the famous castles of Brașov, what more could you want? How about a trip to Bran Castle? Although not the home of Count Dracula, it’s a fantastic experience nonetheless.
Suggested Stay: Hotel Pin Azuga
Stockholm, Sweden
Saying that Stockholm shines in winter might seem like cosmic irony, but it genuinely does.
Devoid of snow, winter in the city entices visitors with crisp, fresh, icy air. While one can expect things to slow down when this happens, the exact opposite happens here.
Christmas markets fill the streets, spiced glögg flows freely, and wintertime activities go full swing. And no trip to Stockholm in winter is complete without a winter boat cruise or catching a game of ice hockey. I almost forgot to mention that a visit to the oldest open-air museum, Skansen, is also a must.
Suggested Stay: Connect Hotel City
Tromsø, Norway
What’s so unique about a small fishing port in Norway? Well, two things.
The Aurora Borealis and the Polar Night Season. Sure, you can experience these elements in other places, but none come close to Tromsø in winter.
Seeing the northern lights dancing in the skies above you, which, if you’re here from November to January, will always be dark, the town is almost otherworldly.
Dog sledging, skiing, and snowshoeing take on new levels when done to the backdrop of a dark sky illuminated by the northern lights.
Suggested Stay: Radisson Blu Hotel Tromsø
Strasbourg, France
Blending French and German culture perfectly, Strasbourg, on the German border of France, stuns during winter.
Renowned for its Christmas markets that date back to the 16th century, prepare for a sensational time.
The streets fill with scents of mulled wine and bredele cookies, a staple of the city. Then there’s the iconic illumination of the city’s centrepiece — the Cathédrale Notre Dame de Strasbourg.
Suggested Stay: Hôtel Restaurant Athena Spa
Nuremberg, Germany
If you haven’t realised yet, Christmas markets personify winter in Europe. The top contenders for the best, however, overall come second to those in Germany. And Nuremberg takes the top prize with ease.
The Bavarian city transforms almost entirely into a dreamland of Christmas cheer when winter comes.
Hosting the Nuremberg Christkindlesmarkt makes it one of the best places to spend winter in Europe. More than 100 merchants sell everything here, from traditional gingerbread to imaginative knickknacks.
Suggested Stay: The NIU Leo
Abisko, Sweden
Let me, for a bit longer, rave about the Northern Lights. Abisko in the Swedish Lapland, one could think, specifically aims to allow the best experience of this phenomenon.
Sitting north of the Arctic Circle, it does get freezing here, but endure the cold and visit the Abisko Aurora Sky Station.
Providing panoramic views so intimately that you could easily reach up and touch the lights, this is a must for any unforgettable winter vacation.
Suggested Stay: STF Abisko Turiststation
Innsbruck, Austria
Known as the go-to place for the best winter resorts in Europe, Innsbruck, Austria, is a textbook wintertime destination.
Set against the backdrop of Austria’s Alps in Tyrol, proudly wears the crown of an incredible getaway spot.
Here winter activities and cultural heritage blend seamlessly, and you can easily spend the morning exploring its landmarks. And at night, indulge in traditional Austrian winter cuisine. For outdoor lovers, it’s a playground for skiing, snowboarding, tobogganing, and ice-climbing.
Suggested Stay: Hotel Garni Römerhof
Lapland, Sweden
Officially covering the entire Arctic region of Sweden, Lapland is a breathtaking collection of pristine landscapes. Picture frozen lakes, sprawling snow-capped forests, and secluded wilderness retreats.
Yes, taking in the scenery is a must, but other activities like snowmobile excursions, dog sledge tours, and reindeer farm visits are incredible. Naturally (pun intended), this is also a fantastic gateway to the Northern Lights.
Okay, I’ve said enough about the lights, I promise.
Suggested Stay: Aurora Camp Kurravaara
Bruges, Belgium
Filled with mediaeval cities, Europe tends to show off quite a bit. But Bruges in Belgium takes it to a whole new level.
Officially the most well-preserved of these cities, it’s a bewitching destination, especially during winter.
Imagine a city where every tree and storefront sparkles with light displays and twinkling lights. Now add to that the atmosphere of cobbled streets and a piping hot cup of Belgian hot chocolate. What more could you want to do in Bruges, one of the best European cities in winter?
Suggested Stay: Grand Hotel Casselbergh Brugge
Trentino, Italy
An autonomous province in Italy, Trentino is famous for its majestic natural landscapes, imposing mountain ranges, valleys, and lakes. For context, this small province has over 290 lakes (I mean, wow).
Take all of that and bathe it in the air and atmosphere of winter. Explore its landscapes on snowmobiles, hit the mountain slopes, or have dinner in a mountaintop hut. Or pamper yourself at one of its many luxurious spas and wine and dine through its outstanding restaurants.
Suggested Stay: I Dodici Mesi Rooms & Apartments
Lake Bled, Slovenia
Slovenia is a picture-perfect testimony to wintery beauty. Nowhere is this clearer than at Lake Bled. This majestic Alpine lake is one of the best winter destinations in Europe.
Providing views of the Julian Alps, surrounding forests, and Bled Castle in the distance, how could you not fall in love? And when you stay in the small town of Bled, you have easy access to the stunning lake. Trust me on one thing, indulge in a Bled Cream Cake, and your tastebuds will thank you.
Suggested Stay: Čarman House Tip: Use this 4-day Slovenia itinerary to experience the best it offers.
Val-d’Isère, France
How does a winter vacation to the French Alps sound? I bet just reading that sentence puts a smile on your face. And it should. Few places compare to the ski resort of Val-d’Isère, near the Italian border.
A part of the Espace Killy ski area, this is heaven for those on the hunt for a wintery adventure. Nearby Tignes gives you access to Face de Bellevarde and the Grande Motte Glacier.
Suggested Stay: Hôtel l’Aigle des Neiges

Germany. Holidays here are held in several cities at once. It all starts with the “woman’s storm” of the city hall. Then a costume procession starts, during which sweets fly at the audience.
In search of romance
Where can a couple in love go on vacation in Europe in winter? Of course, to Paris. Kissing at the Eiffel Tower. Magical night lights. Wall with declarations of love in Montmartre. Archeveshe bridge, on which you can hang a padlock as a sign of strong feelings. A cafe where you will be given mulled wine and a warm blanket. Even slush on the roads will not be able to spoil your romantic mood.
On the eve of February 14, you can visit the Italian Verona, where the legendary Romeo and Juliet fell in love. The city is beautifully decorated with red heart-shaped lanterns, performances are played on the streets, music sounds, fairs work. On the day of the holiday, interesting events are held in Piazza dei Signori, including a kiss of couples for a minute, after which confetti fly up into the sky – “Sighs of Love”.
Lovers of mysticism
Many tourists are attracted by everything mysterious and unknown. Where to go to Europe in winter to tickle your nerves? Of course, there are many places in the Old World where ghosts live and chilling legends come to life. You can visit:
Dracula’s Castle. It is located in Romania, in the city of Brasov. The ancient walls covered with snow look impressive. Tourists will be introduced to the terrible secrets of Vlad the Impaler, who was immortalized in the famous novel under the name of Dracula. There are several more ancient fortresses in the district, a visit to which will allow you to mentally travel back to the Middle Ages.
Prague in winter is extraordinarily beautiful and, as always, full of secrets. It is here that you can find the House of Faust, meet the spirits of Jan Hus and Yachim Berkha, see the clay Golem at night, animated by Kabbalists.
The city of Edinburgh (Scotland) has the beautiful gardens of Princess Street, majestic castles and the throne of King Arthur, and also Mary King’s dead end.

Stately palm trees and lush anthurium welcome visitors to Casa de Las Palmas, ushering you back in time to old Hawai‘i. photo by Patrick Stover
By Sara Stover
On an unassuming country road outside of Hilo, perched above the ancient waters of Waiākea Stream, grows a menagerie of rare and endangered palms. Before you even step foot onto the grounds of Casa de Las Palmas (Spanish for House of the Palms), stately palm trees usher you back in time to old Hawai‘i.
Irene and Lars explain how many of the garden’s fascinating palms are from Madagascar, including this towering Marojejya darianii. photo by Patrick Stover
As you cross a smaller stream by way of a carved arch, wander along the moss-covered lava rock walkways, and inhale air perfumed with the scent of orchids, you’ll lose all sense of time and place. A jurassic garden where magical creatures are seemingly beyond the next majestic tree, clad in the ruffly, velvety-soft leaves of Hainan, China’s Alpinia rugosa (tropical shell ginger), you’ll suspect you are returning from another world when you emerge onto the lush lawn at last.
Built to be the late Jerry Hunter’s private retreat, the nearly seven-acre paradise still exudes a sense of serene seclusion. An acclaimed nurseryman, Mr. Hunter established Hilo’s Palms of Paradise Nursery as growing grounds for Rancho Soledad, his California nursery. In collaboration with designer Brian Lievens, he worked to transform this upper Hilo farmland into the botanical dreamscape that Casa de Las Palmas is today. Until his passing in 2012, Mr. Hunter’s garden remained largely a mystery to the public. In 2017, Irene Francis and Lars Woodruffe purchased Casa de Las Palmas from the estate of Mr. Hunter.
“It was love at first sight!” Irene says enthusiastically.
Irene and Lars live on the property, hosting exclusive events. Accompanied by Master, their ebony cat, the couple also leads private tours under verdant canopies of palm leaves and past exotic waterfalls and a shimmering koi pond. Koa, the one-eyed rooster, often joins the revelry, while Marcus, their ginger cat, naps on the lānai.
“The Johannesteijsmannia altifrons is from Malaysia, Borneo, Sumatra, and Thailand,” says Lars, pointing to a palm by the front door that boasts large, triangular leaves. To hear him explain how many consider this very palm to be one of the largest in a private garden, it’s easy to assume that Lars has been studying tropical plants for decades. In reality, everything he and Irene know about the flora is what they’ve learned living at Casa de Las Palmas.
Mastering the Art of Palm Care
New Zealand natives, Irene and Lars spent over 30 years working for the television industry in Auckland, London, New York, and Singapore before they heard the call of Casa de Las Palmas. The couple moved to Hawai‘i Island intent on being stewards of this East Hawai‘i legacy garden, a job that began with clearing the overgrown trails and making major repairs around the garden home, and evolved into a hands-on learning experience.
Click the cover to see this story in our digital magazine.
“It’s been like climbing up the side of Mt. Everest! But we’ve been fortunate to learn from the best,” says Irene of the help they’ve received from the Hawai‘i Island Palm Society, a group of palm enthusiasts who promote the use of palm trees in private gardens and the general landscape, and perpetuate rare and endangered palms by sharing seeds and plants.
“Casa de Las Palmas’ original master gardener, Cristabol, has also been instrumental in teaching us the art of palm care,” says Lars, affirming that he and Irene follow Cristabol around the garden during his weekly rounds.
“And we spend our evenings studying books about palm trees,” says Irene, explaining that there are around 2,600 species of palms, all of which are one of three shapes. Pinnate palms, like the coconut, have feather-like leaflets that are completely separated from each other. Palmate palms have adjacent leaflets or leaf segments that are joined laterally and fan out like the palm of a hand. And costapalmate palms have leaves that land somewhere between pinnate and palmate in shape.
“This palmate is a Kerriodoxa elegans, from the island of Phuket in Thailand,” notes Lars before revealing that the underside of this black-stemmed palm is reflective.
Preserving Exotic and Endangered Palms
Irene and Lars work tirelessly to maintain Casa de Las Palmas’ original glory, lending their own artistic talent to the property’s improvements. Today, this private estate is available for garden tours, film shoots, wedding photography, and as a romantic location for exclusive events, small weddings, and vow renewals.
Catching the eye of some of the world’s most renowned photographers, the vibrant property has been featured in Vogue Mexico and Jason Dewees’ book Designing With Palms, and been the site of a Nike photoshoot and Love Island film shoots.

More importantly, Casa de Las Palmas is an international sanctuary for the preservation of endangered and rare palms, including the Pelagodoxa henryana, which is considered critically endangered.
“Originally from the Marquesas Islands, it’s now almost extinct there,” laments Lars. “At one point there were fewer than 12 adult trees on the islands. ”
Discovered in 2005, the Tahina spectabilis is faring slightly better for now, with close to 100 trees in the wild. Fortunately, Irene and Lars were able to grow three of this Madagascar palm from one of the first batches of seeds distributed.
Madagascar stands out as the source of an array of rare and fascinating palms, including the garden’s towering Marojejya darianii and the Dypsis mananjarensis, which is commonly called the “mealy bug palm.”
“See the white, waxy powder on the leaf sheath? It looks like a mealy bug, but those are actually the palm’s scales!” says Irene, clearly impressed by a plant clever enough to divert the attention of actual predators by presenting itself as diseased.
In another colorful corner of the garden stands the spiny Aiphanes horrida. Hailing from South America, this palm is armored in intimidating spikes for protection. Although not deadly, a brush with its spikes comes with extreme pain and a 100% chance of infection.
“Learning these Latin names is definitely a brain teaser,” Lars admits, before launching into an effortless, eloquent introduction to the Borassodendron machadonis. “This palm’s seed is the size of a large grapefruit. It’s undoubtedly the biggest seed in our garden!”
First planted in the 1980s, rare palms from Indonesia already soar overhead, the tallest being Sulawesi’s Pigafetta filaris, standing 100 feet tall. And palms aren’t the only flora that seem to grow brighter and bigger at Casa de Las Palmas. Here, the Anthurium cupulispathum are so enormous that a human head could easily be enveloped in its leaves.
Reaping the Benefit of Hard Work

The ability for Casa de Las Palmas’ plants to flourish can be attributed to the work that Irene and Lars lovingly pour into the garden’s care, paired with an ideal tropical climate. The rainy Hilo weather that the palm trees adore, however, comes at a price. Thriving in the presence of damp, warm conditions, fungus and mold are a threat to the palms.
“To help fight both, we try to give the palms more light and air by pruning all the plants,” Lars says. “We also fertilize, mulch, and weed.”
General maintenance also includes hauling away 1,500 to 3,000 pounds of green waste, which Irene and Lars do every week. In turn, much of the green waste is converted to mulch, which the couple then uses to gradually build the garden’s soil back up. It’s an unending cycle that is not without its challenges.
“The hardest part of owning a huge, tropical garden is the fact that there is never nothing to do!” Irene asserts, before conceding that the hard work is rewarding for many reasons. “The palms’ crowns provide shelter for birds. And the plants’ flowers and fruit attract honeybees searching for food.”
Throughout the garden and across the globe, palm tree preservation and restoration are catalysts for change. The seed of South America’s Phytelephas aequatorialis, or ivory nut palm, is being used as a humane substitute for jewelry once made from elephant’s ivory.
“Perhaps the best part of owning a garden like this is the ability to empty your mind by working in it,” offers Lars. “And those magic moments of finding something new growing or flowering, and the journey of figuring out what it is!” he says of the many plants that self-seed.
Irene and Lars live on the property, hosting events and tours, accompanied by Master, their cat. Here, the palms are safe from danger and the husband and wife duo intend to keep it that way. photo by Patrick Stover
Guardians of the Garden
Globally, the main threats to the palm come from loss of habitat by burning and logging for construction, as well as harvesting the trees for palm heart and destroying them for agricultural land.
What’s especially problematic is that almost all palms only have one growing point. As such, they can’t be propagated using common techniques. The palm tree can only be grown from seed, so when the top is cut off for any reason, a new branch or tree will not grow in its place and the palm will die.
It’s assuring to know that at Casa de Las Palmas, the palms are safe from dangers that might otherwise threaten these enchanting plants. And as stewards of the garden, Irene and Lars intend to keep it that way.
“We are certainly grateful to be the current guardians of this beautiful place,” exclaims Irene. “I also think we are all guardians. Every time we visit a beach or take a walk, our responsibility is to leave a place as we find it, so the next person on that path gets to enjoy it as we do!” ❖

No expense was spared when planning this outdoor retreat complete with a massive resort-style salt water pool with two cascading waterfalls, an oversized spa, and much, much more! As the sun begins to set, the sky puts on a colorful show contrasting against the purple mountain tops stretching as far as the eye can see.
POOL & SPa
Pool Party Time
The massive pool can accommodate all of your pool party needs! Kick back in one of the lounge chairs, or better yet, enjoy a volleyball match. The tanning shelf at the opposite end of the pool is great for a leisurely soak. The pool umbrellas can provide a shaded tanning shelf, a nice feature in the summer. In the evening, unwind in the oversized spa which comfortably seats 12+ guests. The pool lights have a fun color changing feature to match your mood. Choose from upbeat color changing lights or opt for a more relaxing solid color like teal or purple. Pool heating is available by request and for an additional fee. An outdoor Sonos sound system is available for guest use and can be controlled with a smart phone.

Enjoy the Scenic Views
On the north side of the yard is a pergola with a day bed swing overlooking the sprawling green lawns. This space, or the adjacent area lined with palm trees, both make for an absolutely stunning backdrop for wedding ceremonies! There is plenty of room on the lawn to play yard games like giant Jenga and corn hole. This is also a great place to roll out yoga mats and enjoy a good stretch, fresh air and some sunshine. The entire backyard comes to life again at night with an abundance of landscape lighting, pool lighting, and both pergola areas feature strung bistro lights with a warm golden glow.

Las Palmas Cruise Port (Gran Canaria). What to see around Las Palmas
Las Palmas International Port, also known as La Luz Port, is the largest port in the Canary Islands. It is one of the three largest and busiest ports in Spain and continues to grow and develop constantly.
With five centuries of history as a port in Gran Canaria, this sheltered harbor has traditionally been a resting place for ships halfway from Europe to Africa and America. The first serious port facilities, similar to modern ones, appeared here at the end of the 19th century; they were built by the British from the well-known company Swanston and Company. Due to its favorable geographical location, La Luz Port quickly gained worldwide importance.
Today, the port of Las Palmas is connected by sea with 180 ports in different countries and on different continents. It can simultaneously serve cruise liners, merchant ships, container ships, local ferries, pleasure and sports yachts. The throughput of the port is up to 1000 ships per month. The piers and pier form a large rectangular “pocket”, which is protected from storms and strong currents, which makes the port bay convenient and safe.
Port La Luz was one of the busiest and most active in the world in 1970s – 1990s, after which, until the early 2000s, there was a slight decline in activity. Now its importance has increased significantly again, it is regaining the status of the most important port in the Central Atlantic. So, for the last year, 2015, the total passenger traffic in the port amounted to more than 2.5 million people, which is almost twice as much as in 2010. The total trade turnover for the past year exceeded 20 million tons.
One of the most important factors contributing to the development of the port, according to experts, is the status of a humanitarian port. The agreement granting this status to the port of La Luz was signed at the beginning of May this year. From now on, it becomes one of the six world ports through which most of the UN humanitarian cargo is distributed. The status of a humanitarian port contributes to the strengthening of La Luz’s position in the international arena.
Another important aspect contributing to the development of the port of Las Palmas is the fact that a free trade zone operates here. The status of an offshore zone has been preserved here for a century and a half, which makes this region especially attractive for businessmen from all over the world.
La Luz Port Director Luis Ibarra has made no secret of his ambitious plans to transform the harbor into one of the main operational and logistical centers of the Atlantic. In particular, negotiations are currently underway with representatives of the commercial and export industries in Brazil to make the port of Gran Canaria the main re-export base for their products supplied to Europe and Africa. The Port Authority calls this project one of the priorities for today. Also among the strategically important areas are the United States and Canada.
The port of La Luz has everything you need to interest Brazil and other major players in the international economy. Thus, today the port offers facilities for storing up to hundreds of thousands of tons of frozen fish, special conditions for storing fruits and vegetables, conditions for storing fuel, etc. Three container terminals have a total length of 1800 meters. The throughput of the port is already 2 million containers per year.
One of the main logistics platforms in the region is the container terminal La Luz, which has been operating for 23 years. It provides first-class services related to the storage and transportation of various goods – in the last two years alone, trade here has increased by 9%. The terminal is constantly being modernized, its total area is 161,466 meters, it is equipped with three berths with a maximum depth of 15.5 meters.
The Opsca terminal, which has been operating for 30 years, also plays an important role. This international terminal has a total area of 42 hectares and a capacity of up to 43,040 TEU. It is one of the most modern in the country and boasts the most high-tech equipment and highly qualified staff.
Among the most important plans for the near future is the commissioning of the new Gesport multifunctional terminal, which will cover an area of 63,000 m. Approximately 5 million euros will be invested in its development and modernization over the next 20 years. This terminal will become an important distribution center for products destined for the African market.
Tourists and guests of the island are greeted by the cruise terminal of the port of La Luz Santa Catalina, where cruise ships and ferries moor. This terminal, capable of simultaneously receiving two large cruise liners, is located near the central part of the city, which is very convenient. It is always noisy and crowded here, guests are provided with all the necessary amenities, including a shopping center, restaurant, car rental, etc. It is this terminal that is the home base for the ships of such large cruise companies as Tui and Aida Cruises, and recently this cooperation was officially extended until 2018.
The development of the port and the port areas is not stopping. Thus, Armas recently confirmed the intensification of construction and design work on the construction of a new large passenger terminal. At the same time, the port authorities announced a tender for the construction of a new large yacht repair center for which a land plot of about 15,000 meters will be allocated.
Undoubtedly, the development of the port, its growth and modernization are in many ways the key to the development of Gran Canaria and all the Canary Islands as a whole. That is why so much attention is constantly paid to this issue.
The northern part of the city is Santa Catalina Park. In many cafes under lush palm trees, there are a lot of people day and night. In the port part of the park there is an interesting Elder Museum (open: Tue-Sun 10.00-20.00, admission fee) – a well-organized museum of science and technology. From the museum, a landscaped pedestrian area stretches past a futuristic sail that hides a bus terminal to Muella Santa Catalina. The sparkling yellow and blue shopping center “El Muelle” houses shops, cinemas, discos, restaurants and cafes. On the other side of the square, a stone’s throw from the 3 km beach of Playa de las Canteras. Thanks to this beach, Las Palmas became the first tourist resort in Gran Canaria. However, today the golden days of the resort are in the past, and young people have moved to the south. A wide promenade lined with palm trees stretches along the entire beach. Hotels and restaurants lined up here, some of which have been operating since the 60s. 20th century A few hundred meters from the shore is the natural reef of La Barra, which turns the beach into a calm lagoon, where children and all those who cannot swim feel absolutely comfortable.
Return by bus from Santa Catalina to the picturesque Doramas Landscape Park, named after the Guanche chief. The park is surrounded by the Catalina Hotel. Next to it is the “Canary Village” – Pueblo Canario. Here you can buy handicrafts and see the performances of folklore groups (Sun 11.30, admission is free). The village was built by local modernist artist Néstor Fernández de la Torre (1887-1938) and his brother Miguel, a renowned architect. The Nestor Museum exhibits works by the artist, but now the museum is under restoration and is closed to the public.
To the south is San Telmo Park, where the main bus terminal of Las Palmas (underground) and the beautiful little chapel of Ermita de San Telmo are located. An elegant Art Nouveau kiosk, decorated with shiny tiles, marks the beginning of one of the oldest districts of the city – Triana. On Mayor de Triana, a long pedestrian street, you will find many magnificent Art Nouveau houses. There are a wide variety of shops and shops here. There is also the Perez Galdos House Museum (open: Tue-Fri 10.00-16.00, Sat, Sun 10.00-14.00, admission is free). The writer was born in Gran Canaria in 1843. He is rightly called the Spanish Balzac. The house itself is a fine example of Canarian architecture.
Next to the museum you will see two beautiful squares – Plasoleta de Cairasco and Hurtado de Mendoza, more commonly called Las Ranas (The Frogs), because in the center of it there is a fountain with two frogs. On Plasoleta de Cairasco, there is a real masterpiece of Art Nouveau – Gabinete Literario, which is considered an artistic and historical monument.
Cross the busy street of Juan de Quesada and you will find yourself in the oldest part of Las Palmas, Veguete. The Spaniards set up camp here in 1478. It is said that Christopher Columbus prayed in the chapel of Hermit de San Antonio Abad before sailing to the New World. Many monuments of colonial architecture have been preserved in this area. You will be pleased to walk along the cobbled streets, admiring the white houses, entwined with bright bougainvillea. The area comes alive in the evenings, when bars and restaurants open almost until the morning.
There is a beautiful 15th century mansion on Colon Street. – House of Columbus (open: Mon-Fri 9.00-19.00, Sat, Sun 9.00-15.00, admission fee). The house is the residence of the first governor of the island. It is believed that Columbus stopped here, although there is no evidence for this. Today it is a curious museum with a beautiful courtyard. The exposition tells about the era of great geographical discoveries. Displayed here are navigational instruments, maps and weapons, a replica cabin on Columbus’ Niña caravel, and pre-Columbian artifacts from Mexico and the Ecuadorian island of La Tolita.
The massive Cathedral of Santa Ana rises around the corner (open: Mon-Fri 10.00-16.30, Sat 10.00-13.30, admission is paid, only through the church museum). The appearance of the cathedral combines elements of Gothic, Renaissance and neoclassical style. Nearby is the Diocesan Museum of Religious Art (open, like the cathedral; entrance from Via Espiritu Santo). See the beautiful cloister and the orange patio, where the silence is broken only by the singing of birds. A modern elevator will take you up to one of the cathedral’s two towers, from where you can enjoy a beautiful view of Las Palmas. On Santa Ana Square, opposite the cathedral, there is a magnificent administrative building – Casas Consistoriales.
Not far from the square, you can see the Atlantic Center for Contemporary Art (CAAM) (open: Tue-Sat 10.00-21.00, Sun 10.00-14.00, admission free), which presents the work of young Canarian artists. The neighboring Canary Museum (open: Mon-Fri 10.00-20.00, Sat, Sun 10. 00-14.00, admission fee) displays a collection of objects dating back to the period before the Spanish conquest. In one of the halls you can see the skulls and mummies of the Cro-Magnons.
Market
Especially popular in Las Palmas is the Begueta Market, which is located on Medisabel Street (open: daily 6.30-14.00). They sell fruits and vegetables, fresh fish, smoked meats and cheeses. There are many good eateries and bars in the market and neighboring streets.
Our two-week cruise to the Canary Islands started from Las Palmas. From the airport to the San Telmo area, where our Hotel Parque was located, we took bus number 60. The ticket price is 2.95 euros per person. On the way 15 minutes. The same bus goes further – to the port in the Santa Catalina area. From the hotel then we went not on this bus, but on a simple bus number 12. The fare costs 1.40 euros per person, the journey takes 6 minutes.
Hotel Parque cost 71 euros per night with breakfast, dinner was also ordered 10 euros per person. Dinner is very simple, but hearty, and for such a price, we are unlikely to have eaten somewhere in the city. Dinner included: broccoli soup or appetizer – spinach sticks, 1 main course: a choice of three dishes (fish, chicken in curry sauce, mushroom risotto), 1 dessert: a choice of 4 types (yogurt, ice cream, pudding, fruits), also included 1 soft drink and coffee/tea.
The hotel is located in the area of San Telmo, it is almost in the old part of the city – 10 minutes walk to the Cathedral. A bus station is located 100 meters from the hotel: it is convenient to arrive from the airport and then go to the port. The room is spacious, large bathroom. Free wi-fi. Not far from the hotel, just 5 minutes away is a large supermarket.
Minus: the beds are moving apart, because the floor is tiled. And poor soundproofing. When in the morning the cleaner in the hallway started making noises, it was already difficult to sleep.
We were at the hotel around 5 pm and dinner started at 8. We decided to take a walk before dinner. First we went to the supermarket. There they stocked up with a local Canarian liqueur – honey rum: Ronmiel. Then we walked a little along the pedestrian street Triana (Calle Triana).
It was getting dark and we turned back to the hotel. Yes, and fatigue from an early rise plus a long flight affected our bodies. We decided to walk around the city in the morning.
We reached the Cathedral of St. Anna (Catedral de Santa Ana). Opposite the cathedral there are bronze sculptures of dogs, after which the Canary Islands got their name. As you know, the Spanish name of the islands – Las Islas Canarias comes from the Latin Canariae Insulae, which literally means “Isles of Dogs”.
From the City Hall (Casas Consistoriales de Las Palmas de G.C) we went to the tiny square of Plaza del Espiritu Santo, on which an old fountain is installed. The style of architecture is slightly oriental – there are balconies everywhere.
We reached the end of the street. Here was a view of the city. The houses seem to be climbing the hillside. Multi-colored houses look like a Lego constructor. They didn’t go upstairs, they turned back.
Christopher Columbus House. It was here that Christopher Columbus himself repeatedly stopped – he spent time here, waiting for his ships to be repaired. The building itself was rebuilt in the middle of the 18th century. From 19For 52 years, the building has been a museum dedicated to the great geographical discoveries and famous sailors of the past.
From the old part of the city we headed towards the hotel past Plaza Hurtado de Mendoza. We went to the pedestrian street Triana. On Sunday morning it was almost deserted. Here is a different style of architecture. The park after which our hotel is named.
We took our things and went by bus number 12 to the port, after 6 minutes we were there.
After having lunch and putting things in the cabin, we went to a nearby shopping center. I needed to buy some cosmetics. An interesting situation happened in a cosmetics store. The sales girl did not know at all where among all the types and colors to look for the cosmetics I needed. And I myself showed her what I needed. My husband laughed and said that if we move to the Canary Islands, then there will already be work for me.
The Santa Catalina Cruise Terminal in Las Palmas is the main port for ferries and cruise ships, so it’s always busy. Located right in the city center, the cruise terminal can accommodate 2 large ships. El Muelle is a very modern shopping center 100 meters away. Directly in front of the terminal is the bus station where local buses leave. In addition, there are many taxis waiting for passengers here. You can easily see everything on foot.
After the smaller capitals of other Canary Islands, Las Palmas, with its 600,000 inhabitants, may seem like a real metropolis
How to get from Gran Canaria Airport to Las Palmas Cruise Port
You can take bus number 60 from the airport to the seaport. The stop is at the airport exit, slightly to the right of the exit. You need to go to the final stop, which is called Santa Catalina, the journey takes 45 minutes. The fare is 3 euros, this includes luggage. The suitcase will need to be placed in the luggage compartment. The bus runs from 6 am to 11 pm, with an interval of 45 minutes.

What to see in Las Palmas on a cruise
In the heart of the Vegueta quarter stands the Cathedral of Santa Ana with twin towers. This is the first architectural structure in the Canaries, which was built at the direction of the Catholic kings after the conquest of Gran Canaria in 1478. The construction began around 1500 and took almost 4 centuries, which made it inevitable that several architects and artists intervened in the process. The result of this was the unification of three main architectural styles: Gothic, Renaissance and Neoclassical.
Another fun attraction is the “live” moving sculpture. You can watch it for free at the entrance to the Museum of Technology, which is only 150 meters from your mooring.
The tourist office is located at Calle Leon y Castillo, 17.
Routes, excursions, transport in the port of Las Palmas
Buses with free entry and exit await you near the terminal. Since life here slows down between noon and 3 pm (siesta), this interval is perhaps the best time to land.
Taxis are matte white vehicles with a red stripe on the front doors. Other signs that will help you recognize a taxi are the letters SP (which stands for Servicio Publico) and a green light on the roof or windshield (which indicates that the taxi is free).
A four-hour taxi tour costs about 100 euros. Drivers know all the lovely places.
What to see around Las Palmas
In the northern part of the city (take a bus or taxi from Parque Santa Catalina, but you can also walk) there is a 3-kilometer sandy beach de la Canteras with many restaurants and a pleasant atmosphere.
The south of the island is a resort area, the road to which takes about 50 minutes. There are many good beaches, as well as high-rise hotels.
The best things to do in and around Las Palmas Port (Gran Canaria)

Las Palmas de Gran Canaria
or simply Las Palmas is a beautiful, cosmopolitan, bustling city where the cultural traditions of Spain, England, Holland, and African countries are intertwined. For all its modernity, it continues to maintain a certain amount of conservatism; here, in the old areas, like nowhere else in the Canaries, you can feel the real colonial atmosphere.
This city, large not only by island, but also by European standards, lies in the north-eastern part of the island of Gran Canaria
, in a picturesque, beautiful place. It is one of the two administrative capitals of the Canary archipelago. The population of Las Palmas is constantly growing and has almost reached 400 thousand inhabitants. Today it is a large, important economic, political and cultural center of the islands, 25 km from the city there is an international airport, and the city port of Puerto de la Luz
, due to its exceptional location, is one of the busiest not only in Spain
but throughout the Atlantic
.
Thanks to the favorable location of the island of Gran Canaria, at one time here, in a convenient harbor, where the city subsequently arose, the Phoenicians also landed
and the Carthaginians
, and the Moors
, and the Genoese
. The first permanent settlement here was founded in 1478 by the Castilian military.
who defeated the local population – the Guanches tribe
. It was not laid on the coast, but a little to the south, on the site of modern Vegeta
(Vegueta) – the old urban area. It is known that in 1492 Christopher Columbus once again stopped here on his way to America.
, a hundred years later, English pirates repeatedly attacked the harbor
, their claims to the Canary Islands
nominated by the Dutch
In a word, the history of the city is full of bright, often tragic moments.
Its rapid development began only in the 19th century, after Sir Alfred Levy Jones opened the Gran Canaria Coal Company here.
, and a port was built near the city. It was at this time that Las Palmas began to expand to the north, the coastline began to be built up. In the 1970s, tourism began to actively develop in the Canary Islands, and this served as another impetus for the development and renewal of the city.
Today Las Palmas
is a cluster of striking historical monuments, modern entertainment centers, shopping malls, office and residential buildings, many luxurious and modest hotels, restaurants, bars and cafes. And near the city you can find several wonderful beaches, the most famous of which are Las Canteras
and Las Alcaravaneras
– long, wide, covered with golden sand and incredibly picturesque. Well, it’s not even worth talking about the opportunities for entertainment of any kind: surfers, divers, fishermen, lovers of hiking and extreme travel, noisy discos and colorful shows are waiting for a lot of discoveries.
Las Canteras beach
Moreover, the climate of Gran Canaria
and the region around the resort of Las Palmas, after lengthy research, has been recognized as one of the most favorable in the whole world, although winter time is inferior to the climate in the south of the island. In total, there are 18 climatic zones on the island.
. Seasonal temperature fluctuations are not particularly noticeable here, it is almost never too hot (only when the wind brings the hot breath of the Sahara
, which is only 180 km from here). The average summer air temperature is +27 degrees, winter is about +24. Of course, it is simply a sin not to use such conditions for medicinal, recreational purposes – in the Las Palmas area, there are many health centers where hydro and aromatherapy, salt baths, thalassotherapy, pressure and reflexology, massages, treatment with algae and mud are practiced.
The capital of the island, Las Palmas, located in the north of Gran Canaria, has a completely opposite climate, environment and lifestyle compared to the south of the island and the unofficial capital of Maspalomas.
The most famous local sights
can be called also known as St. Anne’s Cathedral
, Museum of the Canary Islands, House of Columbus
, Doramos parks
and Santa Catalina
, Bishop’s Palace
, Atlantic Center
contemporary art, Canary Village Museum
. Fans of theatrical art should visit the Perez Galdos Theater
, which has been operating for almost 130 years!
Best time to visit Las Palmas
– this is … any month of the year! Many people prefer to go to Gran Canaria in winter, when we have cold, cloudy days, but here the sun shines and the streets of the city are full of bright greenery and flowers. If you are lucky to be in Las Palmas in February
, you should definitely wait for the famous carnival
, during which the whole city turns into a huge platform with incessant music, various competitions are held, where clowns and jugglers, magicians and acrobats constantly perform, fireworks thunder, fireworks shine and wine flows like a river, every local resident and knowledgeable tourist are looking forward to this bright events all year long, and in anticipation they select costumes and outfits in which they will join the festive atmosphere for several days! Carnival Las Palmas
can be compared if only with Rio de Janeiro
!
In a word, whenever you come to Las Palmas, you will definitely not be disappointed! This city enchants and falls in love with almost everyone!

Bilbao is a city that impresses with its life, energy, cultural development and, at the same time, tranquility. The origin of the city’s name is unclear. Some believe that the name comes from the Old Spanish bel vado , which means “beautiful crossing of rivers”, because not far from the city there is indeed a common mouth of three rivers: Nervion, Ibayzabal and Cadagua. However, according to another version, the name of the city was given by a combination of the words of the Basque language bi albo , that is, “the banks of two rivers. ” Today, Bilbao is a thriving city with an ever-improving infrastructure. Bilbao is building a new metro system and new museums. The port, which was formerly located on the banks of the river, has been moved downstream and is now located on the Bay of Biscay, making room for the development of new residential areas on the banks of the river. The city still remains an industrial center, with steel production, energy, machine tools, aeronautics, electronics and information technology as key industries.

Its fascinating history began in the era of the Roman Empire – even then the city began to actively develop both culturally and economically. After the Moors captured this territory, Valencia was the capital of the Mauritanian kingdom for a long time. It was during this period that a large number of luxurious palaces were erected in the city, irrigation canals and powerful defensive structures were built, which were subsequently tested for strength more than once. The city is rich in sights – a huge Gothic cathedral (where the cup is kept, which is recognized by the Catholic Church in the person of the Pope as the Holy Grail) with a bell tower known as “Miguelete”, ancient churches, richly decorated inside and out, fragments of city fortifications, including several impressive gates , the medieval Gothic building of the La Lonja silk exchange, ancient urban buildings, elegant buildings of the 19th – early 20th centuries in the Art Nouveau style (Central Market, train station, post office), museums, modern zoo and aquarium. Valencia has been part of the World Heritage of Humanity since 1996

1 Madrid
1st place – Madrid
Population: 3 165 235
Autonomous Community: Madrid
Area: 607 km 2
Archaeological excavations on the banks of the Manzanares River prove that the appearance of man in the vicinity of Madrid dates back to the Lower Paleolithic (about 100 thousand years ago). However, references to Madrid as a city appear much later. It is believed that the city was founded by the Emir of Cordoba, Mohammed I, to protect the approaches to Toledo from the Leonese and Castilians. The name Madrid comes from the Arabic “machra” (water) and “it” (abundance) and means “source of full waters”. Madrid is a leisurely city, quiet and great for leisurely strolls. The city comes alive during football games – Real Madrid and Atlético fans come from all over the country to enjoy the game of their favorite teams. At night, the city is also not like itself – night parties do not stop until the morning, and noisy companies roam from institution to institution. The habitual state for Madrid at night allowed us to call the city one of the party night cities in Europe.

Jesé Rodriguez. Lost soul – football.ua
Football1/Football2 channel commentator Kirill Krutorogov talks about a PSG player who forgot about football.
Madrid. March 24, 2012. Real Madrid hosts Real Sociedad. It’s the 80th minute of the match. “Creamy” leads with a score of 5:1. 76,000 spectators at the Santiago Bernabeu greeted Ronaldo with a standing ovation, who scored a double. Instead, 19 enters the field-year-old Jesé Rodriguez. This is his debut in the Example and the first appearance in front of the Madrid public. Earlier, in November, he made his debut for Real Madrid in a cup match against Ponferradina. But now it is a completely different, special event in the life and career of a native of the Canary Islands.
BEGINNING
José Mourinho, who then headed almost the world team with Ronaldo, Kaka, Di Maria, Higuain, Ozil, Alonso and others, saw the talent of the young Canterano of the Academy of Madrid. He rejected the young Canales and Pedro Leon, who managed to show themselves in adult football as part of other teams and did not come to Real for free, but sympathized with the club’s pupil. Took on a pre-season tour in the US, allowed to train with the first team. The sympathy of Special One inspired Jesé. He understood that he needed to make an effort, and the transition to adult football would take place at the top level, he would become a full-fledged player of the Galacticos, one of the stars. With an appropriate salary and life prospects.
But Mourinho’s pedagogical methods are very specific. In September 2012, he stopped Jesé from playing in a match for the Santiago Bernabéu Trophy against Colombian Millonarios, in which many of the affiliate took part. Moreover, the entire 2012-2013 season, Rodriguez played for the second team of Real Madrid, which just rose in class, rising from Segunda B to Segunda. He scored 22 goals, becoming the second scorer of the tournament. But the Portuguese did not even involve him in the training of the main team. Thus, Jose made it clear that the guy has no right to relax. Or maybe even then he saw through his nature and tried to re-educate, force him to show willpower, teach him to deal with difficulties, love work, football in himself, and not himself in football … tactical nuance: “We do not have such a position in which he operates in Castile.” There Hese played a drawn forward.
A CLEAR FUTURE AND THE FIRST STRIKE
In the summer of 2013 Mourinho left Madrid and Rodriguez signed a new four-year contract with Real Madrid as a first team player, of course on decent terms. It cannot be said that Carlo Ancelotti really trusted him, but he consistently included the pupil in the application. Hese was not ready to compete with someone from the Air Force trio, but he qualitatively replaced the main stars, sharpening the game and adding speed to it.
Madrid. March 18, 2014. Second leg of the 1/8 finals of the Champions League. Jesse is in the starting lineup for the game against Schalke. There is a second minute of the meeting. Rodriguez is actively fighting for the ball on the right flank of the attack near someone else’s free kick with Joel Matip. Tom is trying to help Sead Kolasinac. He violently flies his hip into the opponent from behind, he falls, screams furiously and writhes in pain …
It immediately became clear that something bad had happened. During the break, Florentino Perez even went down to the locker room to support his player. Doctors diagnosed Hese with a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. The prognosis for such an injury is not encouraging – more than six months without football. By that time, the striker was in great shape, scoring eight goals and making six assists.
But what happened did not make the football player think: maybe he is doing something wrong in this life, as well as a serious fire that happened in his rented house a week after the ill-fated match with Schalke. Then a whole floor burned out, a worker and two guards were injured, and the attacker temporarily moved to Alvaro Arbeloa.
Much later, Jesé will say narcissistically in an interview: “I am 100% sure, if it weren’t for the injury that Kolasinac inflicted on me in 2014, I would have become an unconditional player in the Real Madrid base.” The statement is in the subjunctive mood, no one can prove it in any way.
RETURN
He returned to the field after a long nine months of recovery in December. Visual changes caught my eye – the guy didn’t mature so weakly – it was only incomprehensible – it was overweight or an impressive muscle mass. But already in the first match against Ludogorets, he scored an assist, and a week later he scored a goal at the Club World Championship. Real Madrid fans rejoiced at the return of their Jesé, a talented pupil capable of becoming a big star. Ancelotti cautiously allowed the forward to play, trying not to harm. But Rafa Benitez, who came in the summer, did not trust the Canarian too much. It was rumored that the entrenador was unhappy that the player was not focused enough on football – he was too fond of music and led an undisciplined lifestyle.
Zinedine Zidane tried to help Jesé, but the Frenchman saw him only as a rotation player, although he again made good use of the few minutes after substitutions, scoring and giving assists. For some reason, Unai Emery believed in Rodriguez more than others. As head of PSG, he wished the Parisians to buy Real Madrid’s canterano. They paid 25 million euros and gave him a salary of 2.6 million per annum. On the eve of moving to France, Hese, under the pseudonym Jey M, released a song and presented a video in which he was with a thick gold chain around his neck, half-naked girls, expensive sports cars and a bunch of friends. Perhaps someone considered this a directorial move (very hackneyed, it is worth noting). In fact, it was an illustration of the real life of a football player. He did not pass the test of money and fame … But Emery probably saw this clip too late.
Jese went to Paris with his new passion – Aura Ruiz, a model from the Canary Islands and a participant in the popular reality show in Spain “Mujeres y hombres y viceversa” – an analogue, God forgive me, of Doma-2. For her sake, Rodriguez left his previous sweetheart Melody Santana, with whom they had two sons. Aura posed with a guy at a presentation as a PSG player, attracting attention with her magnificent forms, and became a discussed person by French fans and journalists.
A completely new stage in his career began for Jesé. Yet, you see, the difference in the perception of status is too great: in Madrid, he is a talented student of the academy, of which there were many, whose significance is clearly lost against the background of the people of Cristiano Ronaldo and co. In Paris, he is a Real Madrid player, bought for 25 million euros. Unlimited possibilities opened before him … then the thoughts of a possible tragedy, of course, did not creep into their heads with a friend.
Rodriguez played fourteen games for PSG in two years (only twice as a starter) and scored only two goals. Even the initiator of his transition – Emery – quickly realized that he had made a huge mistake, exposing his shortsightedness. Half a year of pale play, criticism from fans bordering on mud spilled on social networks, and Jesé went on loan to the Canary Islands, signing a contract with Las Palmas. But it seems to have been a football illustration of the tale of how Brer Rabbit outsmarted Brer Fox: “Do whatever you want with me, just don’t throw me into the thorn bush.” Having never played for modest Las Palmas, Jesé, like Brer Rabbit, ended up in his own home. And there are a lot of acquaintances for whom he is a superstar with unlimited cash, ready to blow dust off him, talking about his extraterrestrial greatness and injustice towards him from everyone – coaches, presidents, journalists, fans …
SHOWING ABOVE ALL
In his debut match for the Canaries, Rodriguez was remembered for a blunder, not hitting an empty net from a couple of meters. On the field, he looked heavy and distracted. And the first goal, even two (out of three) at once, was scored in a month. Celebrating, he stuck the ball under his T-shirt, letting the world know that he was preparing to become a father again. By that time, the former had already calmed down, allowing Khesa to see the children. What he was incredibly happy about on Instagram. And in general, he did too much for the show. She and Aura, an experienced reality TV contestant, made another show out of their lives, exposing every step, every action and every thought in stories.
The third son was supposed to be born in July, but it happened ahead of schedule, in June, and, as it turned out, he was born with a serious pathology – the lungs of the baby, who was named Nyan, did not have time to form properly. Therefore, he is forced to spend the first months of his life in the hospital, and breathe with the help of a special device.
In the summer, Rodriguez was not averse to staying on loan in the Canary Islands, as part of the underdog Examples – it’s not hard to guess why. But the club refused to renew the agreement, considering his performance and statistics unconvincing, and behavior outside the football field unacceptable. The 24-year-old striker did not see football as his priority, rather, as a burden that did not allow him to always live the way he showed in his video – with endless parties, a crowd of people who idolize him and complete reliability.
Fiorentina planned to loan Jesé for two years with an option to buy for 10 million, but PSG, for some reason, refused and sent him to Stoke City. There, Mark Hughes called the Canarian an “elite footballer”. And he loves that kind of treatment. At first, the coach was going to build the team’s game around a star rookie. But that was not about football. He explained his scattered state, as well as constant absences to the Canary Islands, by the situation with the child and the fact that the family needs him, and he cannot do otherwise. How not to treat this with understanding? Moreover, it seems like Rodriguez constantly posted photos with a sick baby on Instagram as a report of his suffering. Increasingly, Stoke City supporters learned about Jesé’s life from this social network, and not from previews or reviews of the team’s matches.
FALSE
Something strange happened in November. The football player asked the leadership of the “potters” for a known reason and flew home, and his girlfriend published an angry message that he never got to her and the child. True, just a few hours later, Aura already posted joint photos.
In December, Hese habitually watched the Premier League match against Swansea from the bench, and when Mark Hughes made the third substitution in the 70th minute, without releasing him on the field, the Spaniard freaked out and voluntarily left for the locker room. After that, the coach promised to fine Rodriguez, noting that he was very upset due to personal problems and the lack of stable match practice: “We let him know how to behave in the future.” But he still did not have a football future as such. Despite the incident, the Canarian, having enlisted the support of the coach and the club’s functionaries, took time off from the next match against Tottenham, explaining that the child had a complication, and went to Spain. He moved the baby along with Aura to a Madrid clinic and disappeared for a month. More precisely, Rodriguez disappeared from football, and so he regularly posted stories and photos on Instagram, informing subscribers about the situation with Nyan. There, in the hospital, they celebrated Christmas, the first for the “little warrior,” as his father called his son.
INSTAGRAM WARS
And on January 27, thunder struck. Right there on Instagram, of course. Jesé announced that his relationship with Aura Ruiz had come to an end, expressing his hope that they could continue to live separately but peacefully. The girl was clearly against it. After 12 days, she wrote that during this time the football player had never visited the baby and did not ask about his condition. After that, Khese came to the hospital, stayed there for seven minutes and disappeared again. Later, the footballer appeared on the air of two Spanish TV channels, in which he explained the problems in football with the situation with the child for whom he lives and whom he tries to help with all his might.
To which Aura posted an angry message:
“Keep flying private jets, posting thousands of dollars worth of diamond photos, buying cars and branded clothes while your son needs everything. His clothes are washed by hand in a small sink, and he himself sleeps on a couch.”
The most interesting thing is that Rodriguez continued to ask the coach for time off to visit his sick son. And he really flew to the Canary Islands, but did not get to the hospital, as the former tirelessly reported:
“Your son is not well in the hospital, but you are great at the party! At work, you say you’re going to Nyan’s, but he hasn’t seen dad for a long time.”
“You’re an hour away from your son, but you don’t bother to visit him. It’s not difficult for you to fly four hours on a plane to have a drink with friends, but it’s difficult to spend an hour to visit your son.”
The football player himself no longer bothered with the answers of the mother of his child.

One of the things I love about visiting Lanzarote is the incredible fish and seafood, plus masses of tapas. How I don’t waddle back onto the plane is a mystery. So I’ve picked a few of my favourite restaurants, the best places to eat in Playa Blanca with kids.
While normally I’d focus on the ones which are great with kids anyway, this being Spain, it means everywhere is pretty family-friendly. High chairs are standard, some have kids’ menus but all are happy to adapt adult dishes to toddler appetites or even create something special.
My daughter’s first trip came aged three months (when she wasn’t eating much, I admit) and most recently we’ve been back aged nine, so they’ve definitely stood the test of time.
For places to stay in Playa Blanca with kids, check out these villas from Jet2Holidays
Restaurante Brisa Marina, Playa Blanca
Right in the heart of Playa Blanca – by the perch with the two parrots – Restaurante Brisa Marina (Juan El Majorero) is as full of Spanish family groups as tourists.
You’ll find a lot of Canarian favourites here, including the famous papas arragudas, the small salty potatoes in their wrinkled skin with mojo sauce, plus wonderful fish and seafood and a kid’s menu.
In peak season, you can expect queues (especially with limited numbers inside when we visited in summer 2021) but it’s worth the wait – staff are busy but friendly, so not the best if you’re short of time, but otherwise slip into Spanish time, gaze out to the water and relax.
La Taberna tapas bar, Marina Rubicon
A visit to the marina’s market is another regular favourite whenever we visit Playa Blanca, with lunch by the seafront after browsing the stalls.
And La Taberna is perfect for lunch, with a whole string of tapas options (plus child-friendly options on the menu if they don’t fancy sharing) at shady tables overlooking the sea.
It’s easy to get carried away, with deep-friend baby squid, garlicky prawns, a whole string of meat and fish dishes, plus side dishes galore. Save room for ice cream around the corner though.
It’s worth remembering that everywhere along this stretch gets very busy on market days, Wednesday and Saturday, so try to arrive a little earlier on these days.
For more ideas, check out my guide to the Canary Islands with kids
Bistro del mar, Marina Rubicon
Formerly the Cafe del Mar, this is another of my favourite spots along the marina – not least for its fantastic ice cream.
Around the corner from the restaurant proper, there’s a takeaway section with a huge range of flavours and some of the best ice cream in Playa Blanca so we always make a stop even if we don’t eat in.
But if you want a sit down meal, the menu here includes enormous (really, huge) pizzas and fresh fish.
There are plenty of restaurants to pick from here, all with a great view of the yachts and sea, but with incredibly slow service at some others, Bistro del Puerto gets extra points for the staff too.
Restaurante Luna Rossa, Playa Blanca
It might seem odd to be recommending an Italian restaurant in Spain, but Luna Rossa is so good, it would be a crime to miss it.
Further west from the main stretch of Playa Blanca, along the seafront towards the lighthouse at Punta Pechiguera, there are some great views out to Fuerteventura (it’s worth booking ahead if you want a table right by the balcony).
The menu has masses of choice, including fresh fish, but also some great seafood pasta (including squid ink versions on the specials) and pizza – if, like my daughter, you can’t finish the whole one, you can take it away too.
Add in little touches like complimentary dough balls (forget Pizza Express, these are salty, pillowy and addictive), delicious wine, desserts and some of the friendliest staff we came across and it’s well worth visiting.
Restaurante Mar Azul (formerly Restaurant Placido), El Golfo
A short drive from Playa Blanca, El Golfo is always worth a trip – for the food as well as the scenery, including the bright green pool of Charco Verde.
After driving through Lanzarote’s volcanic landscape and past the salt pans, the white buildings of El Golfo suddenly appear overlooking the sea.
Again there’s a string of restaurants along the coast overlooking the sea – our favourite was always Restaurant Placido, which now seems to have combined with next door Restaurante Mar Azul, but it just as good.
Fabulous paella (if someone will share), limpets in season, wonderful baby squid and a whole selection of fresh fish – so fresh you’ll see them on the beachfront with the catch at times – plus local classics like mojo sauce for the bread and Canarian potatoes.
They will also whip up some chips for a small girl with big blue eyes and a beseeching gaze… And you can spot the chef cleaning fish down on the rocks by the waves, watched by expectant seagulls!
We come here pretty much every time I visit Lanzarote, easily one of my favourite places to eat near Playa Blanca.
There are also shady umbrellas and glass panels for days when the sea breeze is blowing, and a playground at the edge of the village – although Minnie was just as entertained by the cats prowling for leftover fishy scraps.
For more ideas of things to do in Lanzarote with kids, check out this post for my top 10
Former favourites: now closed
These great child-friendly restaurants in Playa Blanca have sadly now closed but you’ll find alternatives to all of them above.
El Peregrino, Playa Blanca
This might not have the sea views of some of the other tapas bars in town, but the food easily makes up for it.
Chalked up onto the blackboard there’s cheese and meats galore, some fantastic twists on classic tapas such as steak with onion marmalade or artichokes with ham, and some great wines by the glass.
It’s on Calle Correillo, keep an eye out for the barrels at the front.

Best Places to Eat & Drink in Lanzarote

** These photos are not from any of these restaurants. I don’t have any, but I don’t like to write blogs without photos as I find them hard to read 😛 ! **
La Taberna del Puerto, Puerto Calero ($$)
Located in the beautiful harbour of Puerto Calero is La Taberna del Puerto. This restaurant is famous for its paellas and other rice dishes and is said to serve the best in the area.
If you like fish, you should try the classic fideua dish; fresh fish, a variety of tapas (appetizers) and salad.

The restaurant is in a lovely location on the promenade at Playa Honda and serves some of the best tapas on the island. The food is all homemade and very delicious. Give the goats cheese tarts and meatballs a try!
Casa Tere is frequented by locals as well as tourists.
La Orilla Beach Bar, Playa Honda ($$$)
Good for cocktails & picoteo (small bites)
The food and cocktails here are very tasty! The downside is the portion sizes of the meals are rather small, and quite expensive. However, it’s a beautiful place to sit and enjoy the view over the beach and the quality of the products is great!
Cofradia, Old Town Harbour, Puerto del Carmen ($$$)
Fancy some fresh fish, tapas, or seafood? Head to Cofradia. With delicious food and an outdoor terrace overlooking the boats in the harbour, you have yourself the perfect spot!
La Veletta, Old Town Harbour, Puerto del Carmen ($$$)
Right next to Cofradia, is La Veletta. It has a very similar vibe to its neighbouring restaurant and is equally delicious!
Vino+, Puerto del Carmen ($$$)
Vino+ has become a hotspot in PDC and so it’s necessary to reserve a table or you won’t get in. This place is pretty overpriced to be honest but it has a great atmosphere and both the food and service is good!
Best Places to Eat & Drink in Lanzarote
Lava bar, Puerto del Carmen ($$)
The Lava bar is in the same square as Vino+, has live music, great cocktails and a ‘grill your own meat’ option on your own personal hot plate! This is a great place to do something a little different!
P. S. The cocktails are amazing and the guy can make you anything you want if you ask for it! I had a passion fruit mojito that wasn’t on the menu and it was that good, I had 2 more 😉
El Goloso, Biosfera Shopping Centre, Puerto Del Carmen
This restaurant is located in the main shopping centre of Puerto del Carmen, on the same floor as McDonalds. It probably isn’t somewhere you would usually think about going to eat, but the pizzas here are probably one of the best pizzas on the island!
The pastas are also homemade.
Restaurante Cala de Luis Leon, El Charco ($$-$$$)
Luis Leon is a well known chef on the island and so you can expect to eat a great meal here. The restaurant is located in El Charco de San Gines in Arrecife, which is a beautiful harbour where all the small boats dock. There are many restaurants in the area and there is a great atmosphere.
The croquettes, tomato bread, burgers, ribs and steak are all to be recommended.
La cascada, Puerto del Carmen ($$$)
This restaurant is one of my good friends favourite restaurant. She swear that the ravioli starter de rabo de torro is one of the best things to eat on the menu.
Other items that this restaurant is known for is their meat; specifically their cordero or wagyu.
La Ópera – Playa Honda ($$)
Located in Playa Honda close to Deiland shopping center, with plenty of parking. They have a great selection of lunch specials and it is a popular spot among the locals. Favourite items include their meat, fish, ribs and wine.
Best Places to Eat & Drink in Lanzarote
La cantina – Mexican, Puerto del Carmen ($$)
Mexican cuisine has become one of my favourites over the past few years so I have to include a good Mexican restaurant in this list! La Cantina has really good food and is on the main strip of puerto del carmen.
El Pisquito, Arrieta ($$-$$$)
If you enjoy eating tapas, this restaurant in Arrieta is a great place to go! It’s located on the seafront and has some of the best fish and octopus on the island.
The Black Buffalo, Puerto del Carmen ($$)
If you like ribs you have to check this place out! The BBQ ribs are great and the price is extremely affordable! We had a sharing platter and it was huge, we couldn’t finish it. They have a jack daniels BBQ sauce which is delicious and definitely worth a try!
La Bodega de Santiago, Yaiza ($$-$$$)
Located in the local town of Yaiza, La Bodega de Santiago is known as a must-visit restaurant on the island to discover the gastronomy of Lanzarote. The house is 200 years old and was converted to a restaurant in 2005. In this restaurant you can expect to find fresh fish, a selection of great meat and wines, plus other tapas options!

A nice sports bar. If you’re a footy fan and want to see premier League games they show them all. The beer is just 1.50euros a pint during happy hour 4-7pm. The food is fantastic value for money and I can recommend the home made Sunday lunch which was delicious. The staff are polite, efficient and extremely friendly. Our waitress Ashleigh was delightful and so hard working even at the end of her shift she was still smiling. A lovely lady. A great value bar.

Visited here to watch Blackburn rovers vs hull, the place were very quiet. Drinks were good and well priced. Staff need to communicate more to each other as asked if meal ok by one then straight after by another. Also felt like I was being watched all the time by the girl waiting on watching me eating ribs isn’t good made me uncomfortable. An entertainer just setting up as the match finished so must get busier later.

There must have been at least 14 of us ordering starters, main courses and Tapas overall the food was very disappointing don’t go by the pictures on the menu because you certainly don’t get what you see the staff are very friendly and they made up for the food by giving us 2 bottles of caramel vodka which pleased everyone including me! The guy playing music was also getting on everyone’s nerves so I would not recommend at all

We love Playa Blanca and we love the Ice House, try their fish and chips, you would think your back home, and their steak night is always worth as try (so is the Gammon). Great for UK sports with TV’s dotted around the walls. Music and Karaoke on some evenings, come along and enjoy any time of the day.

The bar was very near to our hotel so was an ideal stopover to and from the hotel. We stopped a few times for drinks or lunch during our stay in Playa Blanca. The menu was good for lunches, Jacket Potato with Chilli was superb, and the beer, Estrella, was always lovely and cool. The Monday night with the soul singer is definitely worth going to. The singer is superb.Thank you I’m glad you enjoyed our singer he is the best.

Came across this bar on our first evening and usually finished here at the end of the night on our way back. It is small, but packs a big punch. It has seating inside, on the terrace and on the street. As you would expect they have a great selection of beers and spirits, but it’s the staff that make it special. Always smiling and friendly. Could never pass by without a wave. Kept the bar open longer without any complaint. Give it a go, you wont be sorry

Amazing hotel from start to finish. Lovely clean hotel. The staff were so helpful. We had a family room on the ground floor which overlooked some of the gardens and the pool which meant a toddler could walk in quite easily. The entertainment staff made an effort to include a small one although she didn’t attend the kids club. The food fully lived up to expectations. I have a seriously fussy toddler and a husband who loves trendy restaurants but they are both happy at this time! I really want to come back as soon as possible!

For our anniversary we decided to stay for the first time at Iberostar… The hotel is located in the most beautiful area of Lanzarote, Yaiza, the property has sea views and inside it has banana trees and modern decor which makes a pleasant atmosphere. Unfortunately, since the hotel is considered 5 stars, it was actually like staying in one of the lower Caterioria not so much for the hotel but for the management. We opted for the Star Prestige formula, which was supposed to guarantee us “respect” for the treatment, and this gave us the opportunity to have a mini bar with refills included and a dedicated room with drinks next to the reception. The “prestige restaurant with carte menu” was nothing but a very nice room next to a shared buffet open to all but with so little choice that there were “migrations” of Prestige guests going to and from the buffet with dishes in hand, taking Something else to eat. The quality of food, coffee and drinks was mediocre and I don’t say this because we are Italians we have stayed in Spain/Canary Islands/Balearic Islands but we have never found such low quality in a hotel of this category, especially given that in in the restaurants around him he ate excellent and drank fantastic espresso.

I wasn’t sure if many of the top ratings were all true. But they all voted. Hammer hotel. The people are all super nice. Top class food. If you can’t find anything here, you must go straight to the sea. The rooms are very nice, the only downside is the open bathroom area. You could create better solutions regarding “acoustics” and “flavor”. The bed is gigantic and a good mattress. Iberostar still stands for quality. Highly recommend.

The hotel is simply amazing. I booked Star Prestige so I could be adults only and the peace and quiet was so worth it. In star prestige, the pools are heated, but they are not too warm. The rooms are out of this world as the hotel has recently been refurbished. I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough and trust me that the staff cannot do enough for you.

Lovely hotel right on the sea. We ordered star prestige. The room was large and bright. Fantastic beds. Large sanitary area. Guests of the Prestige can enjoy the large private pool and dine in the private dining room. Dinner à la carte (two menu offers) or buffet. The buffet leaves no desire open. The staff is cordial, you feel welcome in this hotel at any time. View of Fuerteventura and Lobos beautiful. Preferably we would have stayed longer.

5 star beachfront hotel with excellent cuisine and two different restaurants with one card for star service owners Prestige and another buffet. We eat well with a good variety of food, great quality breakfast with fresh centrifuges and lots of choice in both salty and sweet. The nearest beach is 300 mt, in front of the hotel there is a very romantic seaside promenade that extends for several km to the center of Playa Blanca where there are several beautiful beaches including the point to Playa Blanca. Little Entertainment and musical evenings that end too soon.

Iberostar Lanzarote Park is located in Playa Blanca, right on the coast. The view is great but the private sandy beach is gone. In Lanzarote, however, they are usually not. It’s just a volcanic island. The service is good, the staff is polite and friendly and I came to visit the hotel again.

We were happy to leave 2 years ago. Then the hotel was rebuilt and modernized. We visited it in November 2017 once, but it would be too posh for us as a beach-and-holiday hotel. The waiters run around the pool with a jacket and fly around, between the guests of the bath. Also book a 2-class company, with or without children. No, not with us! Small beautiful swimming bay nearby.

We had a great experience here. The staff were lovely and very helpful. Facilities are good with several different pool areas including separate children’s areas. There is entertainment and there are several on site dining. The hotel also has many tourist services. The location is good. There is a path along the coast that will take you to the marina and several restaurants and shopping areas. The city center is about a fifteen minute walk. My only complaint would be that adding the hotel dinner is quite expensive and still doesn’t include drinks. I think it’s worth exploring the local dinner options instead.

That’s it. First of all, stay in August, until the conversion to 5 *. We appreciate with 4, not 3 for the price. €172/night 2 adults + child in MP for these dates is a very good price. But the hotel had quite a few things to improve. The theme of the “reserve” hammocks to look at it. That you lean on the terrace of your room before 08:00 and see all the hammocks with towels put gives a very bad image. It’s true that you can ask a lifeguard to release you, but not everyone does that either. The buffet was short in quality, it was noticeable that the raw materials were better (nothing to argue with the cooks and chefs or room staff). Having to queue for breakfast to catch water from vending machines is a point to fix. The pools were somewhat small for the maximum inflow of these dates. Allowing large inflatables in them as well as playing with balloons both adults and children did not improve the situation. Some areas did not evacuate well the water next to the pools. The showroom was small one night, with seating very close together to take advantage of the space which hindered mobility. At the pool bar, the food is somewhat slow. In the room, the shower has a door too high, leaving a little hollow to ‘breathe’, which sometimes causes the smell of humidity.

Just returned from a week at this hotel with my husband and 2 kids aged 5 and 7. This was our first holiday abroad and we couldn’t have had a better time . The hotel was immaculate, all the staff were more than helpful. It was such a friendly family that put us at ease. There were plenty of activities for adults and kids that weren’t forced to pin you down but were affordable. Only minor gripe was the kids water park was freezing resulting in my daughter not using it. The food was varied and delicious. Thoroughly deserves five stars. Would recommend to anyone with small children.

Very good situation. Comfortable and beautiful rooms all with sea view. Small downside regarding the restaurant reserved for members prestige stars. The system is no longer self-service. Service is sometimes slow. The staff may be in insufficient numbers to follow during periods of attendance. Salt and pepper shakers were missing from the tables for the first 3 dinners. The card offers a limited number of items, which leads customers to go and look for something else at the main buffet. Finally nothing changes and there is always so much traffic at meal times. This hybrid solution doesn’t work for me. This system has been in place since October 2017. I stayed last January with the old restoration system.

I love it here, all the staff are welcoming and friendly. They treat you like royalty, we only stayed here for a week and my family and I wish we could have stayed longer! We upgraded to “prestige” and got into an adults only hotel and it was so calm and peaceful. The “animation” team were great and always want you to get active and have fun! They didn’t fail it. The views were amazing if I could watch them out the window. Both the rooms and parts of the hotel have been kept to a high standard of cleanliness. The only problem we had was with the staff at the spa. The young lady was very rude to us, telling us that we had to pay for white towels despite the fact that our advice was an all round plus and we were in star prestige. It was also my mother and fathers wedding anniversary and they treated us with a decorated table, in the room, bottles of champagne, and with origami swan truffles. It was a beautiful touch and made my parents smile. All in all, we will definitely come back here!

The hotel has a sea view in almost all rooms, because the rooms located inside have a swimming pool. After a 5/10 minute walk you can easily reach two beautiful beaches located on the left and the other on the right of the resort. He has a big buffet. It is divided into 3 swimming pools, one of which is reserved for “VIP” clients, with a Jacuzzi and a hot pool; 2 is formed by three fan-shaped swimming pools, one on the sea, another in the center and the last one for children; The 3rd part has a pool with slides from 15 to 25 cm, from 40 cm to 1 m. I personally also found all the staff very welcoming and friendly.

We spent a week with half board. With a 3 star hotel you can’t put any hits. We had a room with a fridge available apartment (kitchen closed and locked) and a view to great Fuerteventura. Get up and see what a luxurious view from the terrace. As for the buffet, impressive. Because the variety (every night thematic area) in the service. The staff is professional, friendly and first. With a deal not seen in any hotel. And if you are traveling with children, have a Miniclub area with 2 fans who have organized activities in the club as an exterior. For some, but only free half an hour Wi-Fi is available in the hall. But… buffet schedules from the end of lunch until 21.30. Too early, but when traveling with a child, the problem was not for us. It is located in a quiet area with a small beach 100 meters away. Basically… perfect. We’ll be back!

This is the fifth time we have been to Playa Blanca and the third time in this hotel so I think you can work out we love it! We like this hotel because it’s in a great position, the food is good, the staff is great and the rooms are really good – all pretty much have a sea view, even if it’s a side view. It was our 24th wedding anniversary even though we were there and I sent the hotel to ask if it would be possible to have the same room as we used to and if I could buy a bottle of fizz to be in the room when we arrived as a surprise for my hubby. We were told that we couldn’t get the same room, but they would give us a really nice room and that the hotel would give us a fizz, so that was a really nice surprise. When we arrived check in was quick as usual and as we had just missed dinner the lady said we could have a late arrival meal for about an hour so we went to the room which was a family room which at first we thought was really big, a bit more space and a separate bedroom. Although we found that as the bedroom next to the walkway was a bit noisy and rather dark, it was a bit like sleeping in a cave! We have always had a double room in front where the bed is in the main room and it was lovely as you could hear the sea as you lay in bed and it was very peaceful.

Me and my girlfriend went all inclusive in May, we had a great time, food, drink and service where everything is great. The only downside we had was that the evening entertainment wasn’t all that great.

You need a number reform. It would be nice if at least one of the pools was heated The location is good. Shortcomings complements it with daily small things. Treatment and service is excellent. The location is unbeatable, 2 minutes from the beach and 10 minutes from the center of the village.

Rooms are ok, but if you need wifi for planing trips it’s another 7€. And that’s shit. They should lower the price or fix it.
