The Maspalomas Beach and Sand Dunes are situated in the south of Gran Canaria and constitute a protected Nature Reserve space since 1987.
The area of Maspalomas is one of the most popular tourist centers on the island and the sand dunes play a big role in the popularity of the resorts developed around them.

The Maspalomas Sand Dunes occupy an area of around 400 ha (1000 acres) and although some people thought the sand arrived here from the Sahara Desert, this is not a true fact.
How the Maspalomas dunes were formed
The Atlantic Ocean, along with the wind blowing on this coast, is responsible for the formation of the Maspalomas Dunes.
The sand was washed up from the bottom of the ocean during the last ice age when the water retreated and the sand was left exposed. Over a long period of time, the winds blowing here carried the golden sand towards the shore and this is how the dunes were born.
Even today the dunes are still moving constantly from east to west, at a rate of 2 to 5 meters per year. The wind coming from the ocean blows the sand towards the shrubs, which in Spanish are called El Balancón (traganum moquinii). This is a bush specific to the Canary Islands, which appears especially around sandy areas like the beaches and the dunes. Besides being found around the sand dunes of Maspalomas, this bush can also commonly be found in Fuerteventura, in the sand dunes in Corralejo National Park.
Walking on the Maspalomas dunes is allowed only the dedicated paths
After the lockdown in 2020 as a consequence of the coronavirus pandemic, the authorities have announced that the general aspect of the dunes had improved due to the absence of people, so it was decided that the Maspalomas Dunes Special Nature Reserve will have permanent surveillance to guarantee its protection.
So from now on, it is only allowed for people to walk over the dunes following the 8 km of trails, which are properly signaled for visitors to know where they are allowed to go or not.
There will be police and environmental agents present on the ground, to make sure that the rules are respected by everyone. The surveillance team has the ability to issue fines to anyone who does not follow the rules, so we advise you to only access the Maspalomas dunes through the appropriate routes.
How to get to Playa de Maspalomas and the sand dunes
The dunes are situated between the town of Maspalomas and the Playa del Ingles resort and they are a MUST SEE if you are visiting Gran Canaria.
It is easy to get to the dunes from the beach in Maspalomas and also from Playa del Ingles. There is also an entrance from the Dunas Mirador, in Paseo Costa Canaria which is adjacent to the beach at Playa del Ingles.

from Puerto Rico 21 km; 21 minutes drive
from Puerto de Mogan 27 km; 27 minutes drive

Things to do at the Maspalomas Dunes
Maspalomas – Lose yourself through the endless sand dunes in the south of Gran Canaria
Since the space is so vast, you can take your time to explore around and enjoy the beautiful landscape. Although the dunes are a popular attraction on the island, there is always a place to be found if you desire to have intimacy and a quiet moment away from the crowds.
Maspalomas Lighthouse
The lighthouse is very close to the dunes and since it is a tall structure it is easy to get to it just by walking in its direction. The construction is 56 m tall and it is only surpassed by the Morro Jable Lighthouse in Fuerteventura, which measures 59 m in height.
The Maspalomas Lighthouse it still active and the area is full with shops and good restaurants. It is well worth the stroll and you can enjoy the beautiful scenery as well as all the entertainment that is to be found in the streets.

This beach is considered among one of the most unique beaches on the island, due to the views of the dunes and also the island’s mountainous interior.
The beach is also popular among nudists, especially the part near Playa del Ingles.
Maspalomas Beach has lifeguards and calm waters, but there are no toilets on the beach. Families with children prefer the beach section near the lighthouse, because it is the safest for small children.
Maspalomas beach looks wonderful at sunset and you should especially avoid walking through the dunes in the afternoon, when the sand gets very hot.
You can take a romantic walk at sunset along the 2 km of beach towards the Punta de Maspalomas, then you can continue your walk towards the resort of Playa del Ingles along the shoreline.
If you plan on getting to the beach by car, it is advisable to arrive early in the morning, since there are far too few parking spots for the number of tourists that drive here.

Birdwatching
Maspalomas Lagoon, also known as La Charca, is located among the dunes and it is an area of great importance. The place is considered an important bird nesting center and there are many protected birds species living here.
The place is also frequented by migrating birds such as the kingfisher, curlew and egret.
The local authorities are making an effort to protect the habitat of endangered bird species, but this proves to be a difficult task with all the construction and development that is being done.
Camel rides at the Maspalomas sand dunes
This is a popular attraction in the area and some people see it as a way of protecting their feet from walking on the hot sand. The tours leave from the east, they go towards the lagoon and give you a chance to enjoy the views without getting tired.
We are not fans of camel riding and we never tried this type of attraction (not in Gran Canaria or anywhere else), so it’s not something that we would recommend.
At the end of the day, it’s no wonder that the dunes and the beach in Maspalomas are on top of visitor’s preferences, with so many things to do in a landscape that looks so unique and magical.
The beauty of the place conquers everyone’s hearts and once you come to see with your own eyes the beautiful landscape, you will fall deeply in love with the place.
Maspalomas Beach is a charming destination, and once you get to know it, you will want to come back here again and again.

Maspalomas Beach and Dunes – The Desert in Gran Canaria
When Is the Best Time
The “Dunas de Maspalomas” of Gran Canaria are for sure unique and a Must-Visit. When we reached the dunes for the first time, it was an aha moment. After walking along the hotels and through the RIU Hotel, we suddenly saw this fascinating landscape. We didn’t expect such a desert vibe on the Canary Islands.A dessert vibe next to the sea.
With more than 4 million visitors annually, this magical place can get crowded at times. However, if you don’t mind walking for a while in this 400 ha huge Nature Reserve, you can find “instagramable” spots and tranquillity.You easily shot such photos on the dunes.
The best time for an unforgettable visit to the Maspalomas Dunes is either in the morning, in the late afternoon or watch an amazing sunset here.The Maspalomas Lighthouse to the right is 60 m high completed in 1890 according to Wikipedia.
Spring, autumn, and winter are great seasons for Gran Canaria. To avoid the crowds, watch the sunrise from the majestic dunes. The sand is hot during the day and burning in summer. Walking barefoot on the dunes is impossible. The walkway after the RIU Hotel.
Wheelchair accessibility until the dunes outlook after the information centre. The scenery is already spectacular from “Mirador Las Dunas” at the end of this footpath.
Crowds
Maspalomas Dunes, the Mirador, and the RIU Palace Hotel
Due to the popularity of Maspalomas Sand Dunes and the excellent sunny weather many resorts were developed nearby. It is a touristy and busy area that’s for sure. To beat the crowds, arrive early for the sunrise. The majority is still sleeping after the party. Famous are the awesome sunsets. The busiest time is around midday and from 5 pm onwards when it tends to get colder. However, if you don’t mind walking you have the dunes for yourselves.
Are the Maspalomas Dunes Worth Visiting
Thar’s me on the breathtaking dunes.
Yes, these dunes are magical changing with the sunlight throughout the day and seasons. Although it was half an hour drive for us we visited them multiple times during the day and especially in the late afternoon waiting for the golden hour and the sunset. Some beaches are utterly overrun but Maspalomas is quite a walk and crowds are spread. For me, Maspalomas is one of the most fascinating places in Gran Canaria.

Strong winds in the south – famous for Kitesurfer
The south of Gran Canaria is a great destination throughout the year experiencing just a little amount of rain between October to March. The Atlantic Ocean influences the pleasant weather and temperatures in Gran Canaria. It is always a few degrees warmer here at Maspalomas than in the north.

Spring (March-May)
Spring is busy, but not too crowded. It is warm, but not too hot. Pleasant temperatures around 24°C in the south and roughly 22°C in the north. Night temps are on average around 16°C. Some quick showers occur during this season rarely for longer. The sea is refreshing cold after the winter around 20°C.
Summer (June-September)
The summer is hot, almost always sunny in Maspalomas and Playa Ingles. With climate change, the summer is getting hotter reaching almost 40°C like in July 2021. It is the second peak season of the year like elsewhere due to the summer school holidays. Hotel rates are higher early booking is required. The beaches are crowded in the south. It is a splendid time for sunbathing and swimming. Nevertheless, expect UV 12 during the day.
Sunscreen, a hat, and shade are essential. The sea temp in June is on average 22°C reaching 24-25°C at the end of the summer. If you also want to hike in the summer temperatures are bearable in higher elevations and at Pico de las Nieves. However, the sun is intense. Although fall officially starts in September it is more a summer month.

Playa del Ingles in the back of the Maspalomas Dunes
Like spring autumn is busy but not overrun. Day temperatures in October are still more like summer at least 25°C and November roughly two degrees colder. Night temps are slightly below 20°C. First rain showers occur in October. Nevertheless, it doesn’t rain much in Maspalomas and Playa del Ingles. After the long and hot summer the sea temperature is warm in autumn usually around 25°C.
Winter (December-February)
Me on the Maspalomas Dunes at sunset.
The winter is one of the peak seasons in Gran Canaria. It never gets too hot, hiking temps are pleasant, and the sea is cold between 19-20°C. Many Europeans visit Gran Canaria to escape the cold winter for a while. Snow occurs only in the mountain range on higher elevations occasionally rain showers in the south.
Maspalomas lays in the warmest area of the island. Day temperatures are rather warm above 20°C in the shade and colder at night around 15°C. Summer clothes are needful and a jacket for the morning and evening. Even in the winter you easily get sunburnt with UV 6.
Don’t miss out on my top tips at the end of the article and for nearby places.

Location and Tips
Gran Canaria, Maspalomas
Spain
Maspalomas Beach and Sand Dunes are located in the south. The dunes are constantly changing by the wind and during the night appearing virgin each morning when most footprints disappeared. We visited the sand dunes several times, once after rainfall. The entire dunes looked cleaned and renewed.
It is a 60 km drive from the capital city Las Palmas de Gran Canaria in the east, 26 km from Puerto de Mogan, and a 90 km – one hour drive from Agaete in the northwest. Experiencing some of the finest weather the entire year.
3 Entrances to the Maspalomas Dunes
Maspalomas Beach; the dunes are behind.
From the east from Playa del Ingles
The west site from Playa de Maspalomas next to the Maspalomas Lighthouse
Or take the path outside through the RIU Palace Maspalomas Hotel.
Most people come from the RIU Palace Hotel side as we did soon after the hotel is already the outlook – mirador where you can sit for a while. When you start walking to the dunes and the silky sands, everything looks closer than it actually is. It takes time and can be a little exhausting climbing up and down the sand dunes. Don’t come in a rush. You easily spend half a day around the dunes and the sea.
New Regulations
The Maspalomas Dunes Nature Reserve
Nowadays, there are strict rules to protect the dunes from shrinking. The sand is drifting to the beach and sea. New sand was brought several times already to let the dunes grow again. There are 8 km of marked trails where visitors are allowed to experience the sand dunes of Maspalomas. Some local people are still not convinced that this will stop the loss of the dunes. The occurring wind and the Atlantic Ocean are damaging the dunes far more. There are plans to guard the dunes in the entire area. This means one day, you can’t walk unrestricted any longer. However, we hadn’t seen any guard or sign.
Parking
It is quiet at the hotel and dunes early morning
You can park your car for free in the entire area. Depending on your arrival time, a little luck is needed to find parking nearby.
There is plenty of onside road parking, but not enough direction RIU Maspalomas for the busiest time of the day.
There is another big car park for the dunes visit where you may find a space Google Maps Link
At Playa del Ingles is also a big parking lot Google Maps Link
9 Facts About Maspalomas Dunes
Map of the Maspalomas Dunes
Stretching 5.6 km from east to west from Playa del Inglés to the Faro de Maspalomas.
It’s an almost one km walk, from the inland to the sea
This long stretch of fine sand became the status of a Special Nature Reserve in 1994
The sand is not from the Sahara; these are crushed coral reefs from the last ice age.
Access for free
Information Centre after the RIU Hotel, open from 9 am-4 pm only. Restrooms are available next to the Info Centre but open only during information centre operating hours.
8 km of maintained trails leading through the dunes and along.
Maspalomas Dunes are a famous spot for sunsets.
There is a nudist beach close to Playa del Ingles.
Packing List
Do you love to watch sunsets? These are my 5 Best Sunset Spots.
Wear trainers instead of walking barefoot. Depending on the season and time of day, the sand can be hot. I saw shards of glass here and there; not many.
Carry plenty of water, especially during the day. In the end, you may spend more time in the dunes than expected.
Bring a scarf to protect your mouth if it gets too windy. There is lots of wind on Gran Canaria in the south and south-east therefore famous for kitesurfing.
Sun protection and a hat are highly recommended during the day. The sun is powerful even in the winter.
Towel and swim clothes for a bath in the sea when reaching the very end of the dunes.
My Top Tips Nearby
This is one of the Must-Visit places in Gran Canaria; the Barranco de las Vacas. It is a famous Instagram spot, but there are quiet times as well. Read my detailed guide about Vacas Canyon the Antelope of Gran Canaria.
Depending on where you stay on Gran Canaria, combine the breathtaking dunes with the picturesque Las Salinas de Arinaga. Watch the hard work to get the salt from the evaporated seawater. The owner of the saline does not speak English. However, he is super friendly and sells the salt for a small amount.
Even if the saline is not open, you can see the stunning colours of the production from the wall. This is definitely a Must-Visit place in the south for colourful pictures. Attached is the location of the salinas Google Maps Link. We came from Arinaga Beach and walked along the sea to get there. The main road was closed because of road construction.
The Maspalomas Dune system is a unique wild place in the Canary Islands due to its beauty and range of ecosystems. Its 400 hectares, protected by the Canarian government as a Nature Reserve of special value, include a fantastic beach, a dynamic sand dune system, palm grove and a brackish lagoon. This mix of desert and oasis is at the southern tip of Gran Canaria and is surrounded by the famous Maspalomas resort.
What to do in the Maspalomas dunes
To learn more about the area visit the information centre and lookout point in the Hotel Riu Palace in Playa del Inglés in northeast Maspalomas. From here take fork number three of the trail through all the different types of dune in the reserve and down to sunny Maspalomas beach. From the beach you can see the abundant wildlife in the lagoon and relax in the shade of the palm grove.

Bird watching in the Charca de Maspalomas
The Charca de Maspalomas is a ideal location to watch aquatic birds. This brackish lagoon full of tamarisks and reeds is in southeast Gran Canaria within the Maspalomas Dunes nature reserve at the southern tip of Gran Canaria. It’s just 200 metres from the iconic Maspalomas lighthouse. A walkway along the western edge of the lagoon is the best spot for photography and binoculars. With luck you’ll see as many as 24 species of migratory and resident birds in a bay. Grey herons and common egrets are resident most of the time and hunt for fish and insects, while sanderlings search the mud bottom of this quiet wetland. Yellow-legged gulls fly overhead and moorhens and coots are common. The area gets occasional visits from ospreys and Barbary falcons.

Camel rides through the Maspalomas dune
Adventure in the Gran Canaria desert
One option for exploring the Maspalomas dunes is in a dromedary camel train. A ride on these desert animals, adapted so perfectly to the conditions at Maspalomas, shows you the wonderful blend of desert and oasis in the dunes system. A trip through the desert in south Gran Canaria is an excellent holiday memory to take home.
The camels leave in a train on a route that takes 35 minutes and takes you through an area of the dunes consisting of low dunes and native desert plants. To catch a camel ride go to the tents on the eastern edge of the Fataga barranco just a few hundred metres inland from the Maspalomas lagoon. We recommend suntan lotion for this unforgettable adventure.

Sustainability
Sostenibilidad
– Never leave waste of any type lying around, including cigarette butts. Leftover food leads to a proliferation of rats and wild cats, which pose a serious threat to the fauna.
– Respect the animals. Do not bother them or feed them. If you see an injured specimen, you can call the emergency number: 112. Do not pick flowers or plants.
– Do not pick up or take away stones or any other item from the natural environment. And do not move them to pile them up into sadly famous ‘towers’.
– Do not walk in areas where it is not allowed and respect the signposting along trails. Leaving the set paths causes damage to the environment and could also be dangerous for you and anyone with you.
– Do not light fires outside the permitted areas and be especially careful during the summer months.
– Try not to alter the peace of the environment with excessive noise (loud music, yelling, etc.).

MOSCOW, November 12 – RIA Novosti. On the Spanish island of Gran Canaria, tourists and especially couples who retire in nature are accused of destroying a unique landscape, CNN reports. Guests (the Canaries hosted 14 million tourists a year before the pandemic) trample on vegetation, destroy greenery, build shelters in the dunes, leave cigarettes, condoms, toilet paper, jars, napkins. This causes damage to nature and threatens the existence of eight species of plants, three of which are endemic, as well as giant local lizards. The Maspalomas National Park is famous for its sand dunes, located right on the coast. This is one of the main attractions on the island and a resting place for birds migrating between Africa and Europe. In 2018, Spanish scientists examined almost three hundred beaches located next to the dunes and concluded that travelers visiting these places, especially couples who arrange dates, negatively affect the ecosystem of the dunes. Cruise tourists who spend a lot of time on the island are also to blame. As a result, nature, according to experts, is no less harmed than driving through the dunes in a car.

The famous Dunes of Maspalomas are both a nature reserve and a luxurious sandy beach. We will go to a real mini desert, we will die of thirst overcoming the dunes, and at the end we will go to the cool ocean and enjoy the golden sandy beach.
Maspalomas Dunes (photo: Vic-Designs)
One of the main natural attractions is the Maspalomas National Reserve. The sand dunes of Maspalomas (Dunas de Maspalomas) is a tourist Eden in the south of the island, a picturesque desert covered with clean sea sand.
The entire tourist complex of Maspalomas covers 1,060 hectares. It includes coastal beaches, hotels, bungalows, restaurants and shops. Part of the resort of Maspalomas is the city of the same name. The territory of the dunes of Maspalomas occupies 403 hectares, their length is more than three kilometers.

The national park’s ecosystem is divided into two natural areas – the sand dunes and the La Charca lagoon. The climate here is special, unique. Maspalomas is protected by a mountain range and there is almost no rainfall. The weather is dry, sunny and moderately warm all year round.
The dunes of Maspalomas look almost alive. Their relief is unstable, the outlines of the dunes are constantly changing, sandy hills move under the influence of the wind. It seems that only this yellow sand changes under the deep blue of the sky, while the surrounding space and time stand still.
The dunes are especially beautiful at sunset, under the golden evening sun and light pink clouds. They cannot be called absolute deserts – among these sands there are representatives of the desert flora: thickets of gorse and tamarisk, ephemeral plants with a short development cycle, capable of moving after the movement of the dunes. Rare insects also live here. Some species are found only in Maspalomas, but in the deserts of Africa.
Closer to the La Charca lagoon, the sandy landscape gives way to the green area of El Oasis. Tall palm trees grow there, sea birds live. On the shore of the lagoon there are huge prickly balls of rush, similar to our tumbleweed. In such balls during the day, birds take refuge from the heat. In the oasis, you can also meet the “queen” of Gran Canaria – the giant Canarian lizard el lagarto canarión.
Maspalomas National Park (photo: Ted and Jen)
The La Charca Lagoon has a unique environment for fauna and flora. During the rainy season, the narrow spit that separates the lagoon from the Atlantic erodes, and the salt concentration rises along with it. With ocean waters fish come, mollusks, seaweeds appear.

It’s good to roam the dunes on foot, but you can get around this small desert and, as it should be, riding a camel. You can rent a majestic “ship of the sands” and navigate the dunes towards the western end of the nature reserve.
Above the beaches of the El Oasis zone rises a darkened old lighthouse – Faro de Maspalomas. This lighthouse is active. Faro de Maspalomas was built in 1890 when these lands were completely deserted. To this day, Faro shows the way for ships. From the 60-meter height of the Faro de Maspalomas observation deck, you can see the dunes, the turquoise La Charca lagoon and the endless ocean.
The dunes of Maspalomas have been granted the status of a national park since 1994.

Maspalomas is the main tourist destination on the island of Gran Canaria. More than 2 million tourists come here every year. The resort is especially popular among residents of northern European countries: Sweden, Norway, Germany, the Netherlands.
Even 50 years ago, there was nothing on the site of a modern resort, but the authorities decided to turn this place into a resort and gave 19 kilometers of the coast to a French company for development for the needs of tourism.
The city is located in the very south of the island of Gran Canaria, so you can relax in the resort almost all year round. This is the warmest place in the Canary Islands. In winter, the average temperature is 19-24, in summer – 26-30. The climate is dry, in summer there is no precipitation at all, in winter there are rains. The Atlantic Ocean in this resort warms up best, and you can really swim here, unlike Tenerife, although the waves are high, but who doesn’t like to ride the waves!
Maspalomas resort has best beaches among all the Canary Islands, the length of the beach is 12 km, the width of the beach reaches 100 meters! Look at the photo: the beach is not just wide, but very wide.
In fact, Maspalomas is a kind of resort complex, which combines the following small resort villages:
Bahia Feliz and Playa del Aguila
San Agustin
Playa del Ingles
Campo International (Campo Internacional)
Meloneras
Part of the resort called Baia Feliz and Playa del Aguila is suitable for windsurfers. San Agustin is more suitable for lovers of silence and solitude. Campo International is the most respectable part of the resort. There is a lot of greenery, chic golf courses, ponds with exotic birds, and an oasis with beautiful palm trees. Millionaires like to buy bungalows and other real estate in this place, although Campo International is far from the beach. In the evenings, millionaires put on gold watches, decorate themselves with gold jewelry and walk along the embankment.
District Meloneras is still developing, so far the worst beaches are here, but a good place for shopping. There are both luxury stores and the budget Varadero shopping center, where arrogant Chinese trade.
Place called Playa del Inglés
English sailors were the first to choose , now life does not stop here for a minute, people hang out here all year round from morning to evening. There are a lot of cheap hotels, restaurants, casinos, discos, clubs, bars and shops. Here are the best beaches.
The undoubted advantage of the Maspalomas resort is the promenade, which connects all the pieces of the city, along which vacationers like to walk for hours and breathe in the fresh air of the Atlantic. I don’t know how long the embankment is, but you can walk along it for more than an hour at a fast pace.
Now it’s time to tell you what to see in Maspalomas and what to do besides sunbathing and swimming in the ocean.
Gold Dunas de Maspalomas are sand dunes in the south of the island that look like desert dunes. The dunes are the hallmark of the island, and of the Canary Islands, now the Dunes of Maspalomas are a nature reserve. And people sitting on them like to enjoy the sunset. Nudists have chosen this piece of Sahara for sunbathing.
El Faro de Maspalomas Lighthouse is the largest lighthouse in the Canary Islands. The height of the lighthouse is 68 meters
Aqualand Maspalomas – the largest water park in Gran Canaria, with an entrance fee of € 26, you can swim, sunbathe and have fun on 19 different slides!
Palmitos Park is a large botanical garden with parrots and other animals. By paying € 29.5 for entry, you will see a dolphin show, a parrot show, a show with exotic birds. The following areas also operate in the park: an orchid garden, a cactus garden, a butterfly garden, and a large zoo with various parrots, toucans and exotic birds. The park, of course, loses to the famous one in Tenerife, but it is younger, and we also wanted to see the parrot show, which was closed in Loro Parque.
Yumbo center Maspalomas is the largest entertainment center with restaurants, bars, casinos and shops. The first floor is given over to gays, here they host theme parties, shows, and many cafes are open for them. By the way, good souvenirs are sold in this center.
In general, the resort of Maspalomas is a favorite holiday destination for LGBT tourism (Gay tourism). In the world ratings of gay resorts, Maspalomas occupies high lines. There are many discos and gay parties. In the spring, the resort hosts a kind of Gay Pride love parade, and in the summer there are many open-airs.
If you are bored with spending time at the resort, then you can go to the capital of the island or to other interesting towns, for example, to the city. Such comfortable modern air-conditioned buses will take you to these towns.
But don’t think that discs are only for rear-wheel drive, there are also excellent discos for normal people. For example, in the centers Kasbah, Plaza de Maspalomas and Metro you will find great clubs and bars like Club Pacha .
Maspalomas is not only a passive beach holiday. Here you can go in for sports (golf, diving, windsurfing, skydiving, football, karting). Not far from the resort there is a good karting club (Gran Karting) and Aeroclub de Gran Canaria (Aeroclub de Gran Canaria) . But the most popular sport is minigolf, which hundreds of tourists play in the evenings.
In the resort, you can rent cheap hotels for 10 Euros per night, such as Bungalows Club Maspalomas, and check into luxury hotels with ocean views, such as Seaside Grand Hotel Residencia – Gran Lujo. In general, Maspalomas is one of the most important resorts in Spain, which can accommodate more than 100 thousand tourists at a time, both young people who want to relax cheaply, and millionaires who want to get excellent service.
As for food, you can buy food both in a supermarket (for example, in the Spar chain), and go to eat in a restaurant. Prices in supermarkets are higher than in the Czech Republic, and the products are worse. As for restaurants, a dinner for two with alcohol costs an average of 30 Euros, prices in restaurants here are slightly higher than in Tenerife, this is especially felt in Sangria. Although everything in the restaurants is very tasty, especially seafood, and for lunch they often offer a set lunch with discounts. The best restaurants with seafood and Canarian cuisine, as well as ocean views, are located on Calle las Dunas. We remember one restaurant for the fact that after dinner, as a compliment (that is, for free), they bring the famous Canarian rum and ice cream.))
Summing up, I can say that I liked my vacation in Maspalomas much more than in Tenerife: it’s more fun here, the beach is better, and the water in the ocean is warmer, the people here are much more friendly and smiling, and the weather is more stable.))

City of Maspalomas in Spain
Maspalomas is both a city and a resort, so let’s immediately define the terms. The coast where Maspalomas is located is called Costa Canaria, it also includes San Agustin, Meloneras, Playa del Inglés and other small towns, but is often referred to by the general word “Maspalomas”. Here we will mainly talk about a particular city, a popular tourist center.
About 33 thousand people live in the city, the main income, of course, comes from tourism. Due to its favorable location – in the very south of the island – this resort welcomes people from all over the world all year round. And in winter you will see bathing in the ocean, sunbathing, satisfied tourists. And summer is not too hot. The Canary Islands are generally the only point where lovers of European holidays can enjoy a beach holiday all year round. Since the resort has been developing for a long time, the entire infrastructure works fine, the beaches are clean and beautiful, there is a sea of entertainment, and there are also opportunities to go on excursions.
Hotels in Maspalomas
First of all, you need to decide on accommodation. Of course, the Canary Islands are not a cheap place, so all the most economical and, oddly enough, the most expensive hotels are sold out long before entry. Sometimes – for half a year, for popular dates – even earlier.
If you want to stay in the best hotels in Maspalomas, then you also need to take care of booking in advance. Despite the price, they sell out pretty quickly. Pay attention to SeasidePalmBeach (about 200 euros for a double room per night, depending on the season, great location, great reviews), as well as SiestaSuites – from here, in general, perhaps no one left dissatisfied. Great reviews, great hotel in Maspalomas, about 250 euros per room per night. And another option is the Seaside Grand Hotel Residencia (Gran Lujo). By the way, if you got a good hotel in Maspalomas, please leave a review for future travelers.
Transport in Maspalomas
Maspalomas is not a very big city, so transport (and in Gran Canaria these are buses) is usually used in situations where you need to get from Maspalomas to other cities or the airport.
You can take the bus from the airport to Maspalomas. The stop is located in the international terminal, one floor above the baggage claim and exit. Tickets are sold at vending machines or from the driver. Bus 66 runs to the city center and stops at Playa del Aguila, San Agustna, Playa del Inglés and Campo Internacional de Maspalomas. The final one is Faro de Maspalomas (this is already on the coast, where the lighthouse is). Usually bus 66 runs from early morning (7 am) to evening (approximately 8 pm).
Alternatively, you can take bus number 90 from Telde to Maspalomas. This bus also stops at the airport, Playa del Aguile, San Agustin, Bahia Feliz, Playa del Inglés. The final one is Faro de Maspalomas. Usually the journey takes about half an hour, sometimes – a little more. The island is quite small, you can easily live in the south and drive constantly to the north.

Things to See in Maspalomas
Of course, people come to Maspalomas not only for a beach holiday, but also for impressions. You can combine all types of recreation in one place. Firstly, of course, the dunes are among the attractions of Maspalomas. About them – even a separate article.
Secondly, for outdoor enthusiasts there is a go-kart track, very long and interesting. The helicopter club will allow you to see all the most beautiful places of the island from a height, you can also jump with a parachute.
Fans of excitement will appreciate the casino in Maspalomas (in San Agustin), but for the calmer there are many options for entertainment: clubs, discos, bars. In principle, Gran Canaria is a small island, so here you can not be tied to a specific city, but immediately go to the page of attractions.
Near Maspalomas there is also a wonderful water park, the opportunity to ride camels and see “almost a real desert” – those same dunes, a piece of the Sahara. Nightlife is also thriving, with separate entertainment centers and small clubs, a golf course and an amusement park.
And, of course, one of the attractions of Maspalomas is the nature around the city.
The beaches of Maspalomas
Since it is very easy to move between the beaches of the resort, sachala – briefly about all, and then in more detail – about the beach in the city of Maspalomas.
San Agustin Beach is one of the quietest and most peaceful, quite long, popular among divers. In Maspalomas itself, there is a beach with gorgeous sand, in Playa del Inglés it is very beautiful, Las Burras is a bay about 400 meters long, Cochino is a small beach, but with a developed infrastructure.
The beaches of Maspalomas are free, but it is possible to rent a sun lounger and an umbrella (usually a few euros per day), and the main attraction and landmark is the old lighthouse (Faro de Maspalomas). From here begins the promenade, thousands of tourists walk along it every day, enjoying the views and the sun. Along the pedestrian zone – bars, cafes, shops. You can walk to the dunes of Maspalomas, which are part of the reserve, see the Palm Grove, the lake. At the other end of the promenade is Playa del Inglés (cities in the Canary Islands often pass one into another). Maspalomas beach has both popular spots and quite deserted areas. Surfers are usually located where the coastline bends, and there are companies renting various equipment along the entire length.
Maspalomas is a great place to stay in Gran Canaria! We welcome your questions and feedback. Have a nice vacation!
Gran Canaria, Spain, Canaries. city of Maspalomas – “The dunes of Maspalomas are a small desert on the ocean. Lighthouse. La charka.”
Good day!
I want to dedicate this review to the city of Maspalomas, which is located on the Canary Island of Gran Canaria.
This city is unusual in the first place because it contains the famous Dunes of Maspalomas.
This is such a real desert on the ocean. Very unusual, beautiful and exciting.
But first things first.
Maspalomas ( Maspalomas ) is a city that is part of the tourist complex Maspalomas – Costa Canaria , which is often called by the name of the city Maspalomas (local name also includes the adjacent resorts of El Sur 906 San Agustin , Playa del Inglés and Meloneras ).
Located on the southern tip of the island, Maspalomas is the largest tourist area in the Canary Islands.
It has a developed infrastructure that is rarely found in other tourist areas, including two hospitals and private clinics, local and foreign educational institutions (Spanish, English and Swedish schools), shopping centers, two casinos, golf courses, sports centers , theme parks and the Summer University (specializing mainly in tourism and collaborating with the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria)
We lived in Playa del Inglés in Montemar apartments. Maspalomas was explored on foot and by car, which was rented from the Canarian company Cicar.
THE DUNES
A promenade led from our hotel towards Maspalomas, along which you could walk almost to the beginning of the dunes. In general, this promenade is very long, it connects all the resorts that are part of Maspalomas.
We have been to the dunes several times, in different ways, so the photos will be from different days. But this will not affect the format of the story
Or you can walk along the beach itself. He will eventually also lead you to the dunes. Most people do just that. One gets the feeling that this is some kind of endless human stream that moves in both directions along the edge of the ocean. At the same time, the beach area is so wide that this stream does not create inconvenience for those who come to sunbathe or swim.
The dunes begin gradually. At first it seems that the already quite wide beach just became even wider
But further the sand becomes more and more and it seems that there will be a real desert ahead. Even a little exciting, especially for the first time, because the size of this desert is still unfamiliar.
In general, of course, when I read about this desert in Gran Canaria, I imagined it a little differently. It seemed to me that it was larger and more deserted. In fact, of course, you will not feel like a lonely person in the desert there, there will be no complete immersion, since you can see the ocean and the road and the city in the distance
BUT it’s still a very unusual and interesting place. If you tune in, lie down on the sand, or, if you wish, find a place from which civilization will not be visible, you can feel like a real wanderer of the desert.
The relief of the dunes of Maspalomas is unstable;
Take a lot of great pictures, in which no one will distinguish this desert from the real one, if you don’t tell in advance. And during this photo shoot, the main thing is not to forget that this is not a real desert, otherwise it becomes a little scary. Even so, we drove to the water, not to the sand
With relief you see a chain of tracks, and you understand that you are not alone in this desert, there are people here, and we will find them
For me personally, the dunes were a real gift of this vacation. There is a feeling that you are relaxing in different places at once and it seems that relaxation is twice as strong.
From tips – keep in mind that during the day the sand is very hot, it is impossible to walk on it for a long time, and no shoes are uncomfortable, as your feet get stuck in it. It is better to come to the dunes in the morning or in the evening, when the hot sun has not yet heated the sand.
Of the minuses of – there are a lot of nudists in this part of the island. Here and there you can see couples of different ages. We were probably lucky and too close or too many of them we never saw, but I read that this does not always happen. Also, this part of the island is loved by LGBT tourists, this should also be taken into account when traveling to Gran Canaria.
LIGHTHOUSE. Laguna LA CHARCA.
El Faro de Maspalomas lighthouse is the largest lighthouse in the Canary Islands. The height of the lighthouse is 68 meters. This imposing ancient structure has been lighting the way for ships since 1890 years to the present day, it is considered one of the oldest operating lighthouses.
You can walk to it through the dunes, it is just on the outskirts, or vice versa, start moving from the lighthouse and go towards the dunes. We did just that. It is located in the Meloneras region, which is also part of Maspalomas.
The embankment leads to the lighthouse, on which there are many shops, the Varadero shopping center and the Fund Grube perfume shop
The embankment itself is not very long, the lighthouse is immediately visible in the distance
The embankment is wide, there are benches for relaxing and admiring the ocean
Well, since there are many tourists who travel along the lighthouse-dune route, then of course there are a lot of street vendors here. Who can. During our vacation, this way of earning was popular – people in the form of famous characters stand motionless depicting a statue
The lighthouse itself is so big that it can only be photographed from afar, the closer you get, the smaller it fits
Further towards the dunes, the road will pass by or through beautiful alleys, expensive hotels
There will be something to see, time will fly by, and now we are approaching the no less famous Laguna La Charca.
Everything I’ve read about it has been basically described as “beautiful lagoon with clean beach and shore”.
We purposefully walked towards it, but in fact it turned out to be a small reservoir, something between a lake and a swamp
Already preparing this review, I found such a description of this reservoir and it describes it as accurately as possible in my opinion. Perhaps at some other time of the year it becomes larger, but on our visit it really looked like a puddle – both in size and color of water
The lake, or “Charca de Maspalomas” (literally – “Puddle of Maspalomas”) is located near the lighthouse of Maspalomas (Faro de Maspalomas) at the edge of the sand dunes of Maspalomas famous throughout the island of Gran Canaria and is a small coastal lagoon brackish water, where once there were ancient swamps
But still, in combination with the dunes, this does not spoil the impression. Perhaps if you walk all the way through the dunes on foot from the beginning to the end, this small piece of water will really seem like a lagoon.
CITY.
The city itself is large and similar to all big tourist cities. Lots of people, hotels, cafes, shops.
But at the same time it is quite cozy and in places very homely.
During the visit, I did not yet know that I would write a review about it someday, so the photos were taken for myself, what attracted attention, and everything else looked through the eyes
Unusual shopping center Cita. I found out that this is a shopping center much later. Then I thought it was some kind of entertainment center for children.
Conclusion
Maspalomas is a beautiful resort, modern, comfortable, where everyone will find their area to their liking, both with fun and with home comfort.
Desert by the ocean is a breathtaking sight that is worth seeing.
I recommend visiting this place if you get the chance.
Have a nice trip!

Zori – News of the Seversky District
We continue the story of our journalist about the trip to the Canary
islands
(Continued. Beginning at nos. 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 16 and 26)
A long road in the dunes
Time on vacation flies fast. I’m in Gran Canaria
in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean for several days, but I haven’t seen much yet:
daughter Lilya cannot quit her job due to the arrival of her mother (she is a coach in
fitness)…
I search the Internet for local places of interest. I have already talked about
the island of Gran Canaria, which, due to the diversity of its relief and climatic zones,
is a continent in miniature. In the south of the island, where I, in fact,
I am located one of the main natural attractions of Gran Canaria
– sand dunes of Maspalomas (Dunas de Maspalomas) – a picturesque desert,
covered with pure sea sand.
My daughter reacted somewhat strangely to my request to take me to the dunes:
“Mom, this is a desert – it’s hot there”, “You won’t get there”, and the last, killer argument
– “There are only nudists and gays!” That scared me! This “nightmare” I somehow
I will survive. The main thing is to see the Sahara desert in miniature. The locals say that
huge sand dunes came from Africa. And poured them from the sky, starting with
ice age. And this is quite likely, since the sandy “rains and fogs”
called “kalima”, are not uncommon on the islands.
Lilya brought me to the hotel portal, through which there is a passage immediately
to the dunes, and left to train another client. We agreed that she
will pick me up on the Maspalomas beach at the Tipsy restaurant, where we are going to celebrate her anniversary.
Fairy-tale alley with palm trees of a luxury hotel leads directly to
dunes. Here, paving slabs rest against the parapet, behind which huge mountains
golden sand go almost to the horizon. And only the blue border of the Atlantic
ocean gives hope that I will overcome the desert. Dunes area of Maspalomas
occupies 403 hectares, their length along the beach is more than three kilometers. I’m up to
the ocean, in principle, is not so far – a kilometer, maybe two. Of course, dunes
the height of a multi-storey building – nothing to compare with Anapa …
I was lucky that day – a little cloudy and light sea
the breeze makes hiking in the desert very comfortable. I stomp on the crest of the dune,
singing: “Uchkuduk – three wells …”. I read that in the dunes of Maspalomas they ride on
camels, but this is somewhere to the west, where there are green islands – oases. ahead
a helicopter buzzes over the desert, taking pictures of beauty from above. Although
the dunes are trampled by thousands of tourists’ feet, the sand around is clean. In one place,
finding some white object on the sand, she rushed to investigate what kind of garbage.
Nearby it turned out to be a dead seagull …
I must say that the usual yellow sand for us is not typical for the Canary Islands.
On many beaches, it is almost black, due to being ground up by wind and water.
volcanic rocks. The dunes of Maspalomas seem to be covered with this volcanic dust
and are still beautiful. Among the dunes, black pits are the dry bottom of salt lakes.
The bottom is easier to walk.
Closer to the ocean sunbathing nudists begin to come across. I finally
descending from the dunes to the shore. There are many such walking along the surf
uncomplexed citizens. Beaches in European countries are regulated, and,
if the sign “nudist zone” hangs, and their neighborhood is unpleasant for you, swim and
sunbathe elsewhere.
I know that Gran Canaria is one of my favorite holiday destinations
representatives of sexual minorities with their gay parades and drag carnivals. But
the island is also a favorite vacation spot for pensioners from Europe (and they can afford
allow holidays in the Canary Islands!). Old nudists and so the sight is not for the faint of heart,
and if they are also gay … Imagine this explosive
mixture: on the beach, holding hands, two respectable old men wander, and on them
only baseball caps and backpacks.
In such a cheerful environment, I walk towards the city beach, and through
I’ve been at Tipsy for an hour now. I must say that my Megafon tariff is a thing in the Canary Islands
useless. You can only make calls over the Internet. But near the restaurant
For some reason the free Wi-Fi refuses to connect. If I don’t call my daughter
sit me here until the evening …
Lucky that the owner of Tipsy knows Lilya. In broken English
clicking on the word “boss”, I ask the waitress to call the owner. The same one appears
a handsome boy, with whom the daughter agreed, calls her and tells me
phone: “Mom, you’re like a little …”.
In the evening, final preparations for the anniversary party. Lily
trusts me to make weights for balloons. The holiday is prepared in white style
party – a white party, when guests, hall decoration and even food – everything should
be white. I stuff rice into white balls while my daughter and her friend make skewers
from marshmallows. In big
cardboard box for all guests, the birthday girl prepared souvenirs – envelopes with
white sweets and bracelets – “baubles”. Cheap but very cute…
And we are all in white…
Half a day we move furniture on the upper terrace of the Tipsy restaurant,
we drape the openings with white organza, Lily’s friends inflate white balloons with helium.
Half of the terrace is open air and the view of the ocean and the beach is amazing!
Everything is ready for the arrival of the guests.
Unlike Russian rich feasts in Europe, it is not customary to throw
money. Everything is modest, within the budget. Along with a souvenir, guests are given
according to the flyer-postcard, according to it in the bar you can drink a limited amount
alcohol. If you want more, buy it yourself. The appetizer is also symbolic and sugary
sweet – marshmallows, white gingerbread, sweets and at the end a big cake – again,
white! For a Russian person, this is somewhat strange, but in Spain this format
is considered normal – people came to congratulate a good person on his anniversary, and not
eat for free.
A daughter in a “little white dress” is like a princess with a tiara on her head.
She also offered me a crown – “I’m a princess, so you’re a queen.” I joked:
“There will be time to fix it.”
Friends and clients of all ages came to congratulate Lilya,
nationalities and professions: bartenders, businessmen, bikers, policemen…
Several Russian friends with Spanish husbands, as well as older “girlfriends”
me, who do free yoga with Lily on Sundays. Since for
we did not pay rent for the terrace, the bar that evening served everyone who went up
to the second floor. One compatriot, very broken-looking, accidentally wandered
here with their Italian sisters-in-law (husband’s sisters). They fraternized and drank
of course, for the birthday girl and “For Russia!”.
The fun lasted until late at night. The daughter met and saw off the guests,
received and gave gifts, dealt with a bar-restaurant, filmed and
broadcast the video live, danced and took pictures with everyone two hundred times.
Then she cut a snow-white three-story cake with white marzipan lilies and
thanked the guests into the microphone.
The National Health System in Spain is managed by the Autonomous Regions health services. The public health system includes primary, specialist and hospital care provided in its own centres. Only some private centres have agreements with public health services for taking care of patients. Treatment in the public health system is free of charge. The customers should only pay a share when collecting prescription medicines from a pharmacy.
Dental care is usually not available in the public health system. In Spain, you must pay for private treatment yourself.
Accessing care
You can obtain medically necessary treatment by presenting the European Health Insurance Card (EHIC), when you are temporarily staying in Spain, the Canary Islands and in the cities of Ceuta and Melilla. Medically necessary treatment refers to treatment that cannot wait for your return home. You may need such treatment in case of acute illness or accident. You can also receive treatment related to pregnancy and childbirth or to a chronic illness. The need for treatment must emerge during the course of your stay. If your illness requires regular treatment while you are temporarily staying abroad, agree with the treatment provider beforehand on the arrangement of treatment. Treatments that need to be arranged in advance include, for example, dialysis, oxygen therapy, specialised care of asthma and chemotherapy as well as echocardiography in chronic autoimmune diseases.
You will receive treatment on the same terms and at the same price as the locals. It is advisable to carry copies of your European Health Insurance Card with you, along with the card itself. If you didn’t have your EHIC with you or it was not accepted, and you were required to pay all the costs of treatment yourself, you might be able to apply for reimbursement from Kela retrospectively.
Be aware that some health centres, doctors and hospitals may also provide appointments for private patients. There are different appointment times for public and private patients, however. If you are asked for a payment, you will not be receiving treatment within the public system; rather private treatment. In that case, the European Health Insurance Card will not be accepted, and you will be charged the full price for treatment.
Information about medical care services can be obtained from Spain´s National Social Security Institute (Instituto Nacional de la Seguridad Social) local offices or from the offices of the regional health services (Servicio Regional de Salud). You can ask the offices for the contact information of health centres, doctors and hospitals belonging to the public system. You also obtain contact information by area from the Ministry of Health.
In certain parts of Spain, especially in the islands outside mainland Spain, there may be a long journey to treatment services within the public system.
Please note that Gibraltar is part of the United Kingdom and no longer belongs to the European Union after Brexit. However, you may continue to use the European Health Insurance Card for medically necessary treatment while temporarily staying in Gibraltar. A passport is currently not accepted as a certificate of right to treatment if the treatment has been provided on or after 1 January 2021.
Sudden illness
Doctor
You will be able to access a general practitioner (medico de familia) or paediatrician (pediatra) directly when you seek treatment at a health centre (centro sanitario or centro de salud) or at the consulting office (consultorio) of a doctor within the public system. You can see a specialist if you have a general practitioner´s referral. Make sure that the doctor treating you belongs to Spain´s public healthcare system (asistencia sanitaria pública or asistencia del Sistema Nacional de Salud) and present your European Health Insurance Card and ID at the appointment. In this way, treatment is free. It is a good idea to have a paper copy of your European Health Insurance Card with you, so that you can show the original card at the reception desk and give the copy to the doctor.
Dentist
Dental care is usually not available in the public healthcare system, nor are its costs reimbursed. Only cases requiring urgent treatment are free of charge in the public healthcare system.
Medication
When you collect prescription medication prescribed by a doctor in the public system from a pharmacy (farmacia) in Spain, present your European Health Insurance Card and ID. All customers must pay a share of their medication costs by themselves. If you are staying in Spain on a temporary basis, you pay a 50 per cent co-payment for necessary medicine treatment by showing your European Health Insurance Card. Pensioner tourists pay a 10 per cent co-payment. Finnish pension recipients permanently residing in Spain usually pay the 10-per cent co-payment too. If it is not apparent from the date of birth on your health insurance card that you are a pensioner, you may be asked to provide additional proof.
Hospital treatment
You can access hospital treatment with a specialist´s referral. In urgent cases, however, you can go directly to an outpatient clinic (ambulatorio) or a hospital (urgencias). When you present your European Health Insurance Card and ID, in addition to the referral, at the hospital´s reception desk, treatment, including medicines, will be free of charge. Otherwise, you will be regarded as a private patient and you will have to pay for treatment.
Ambulance transport is free if transportation is necessary for a medical reason and you present your European Health Insurance Card.
If your illness requires you to use special transport when returning to Finland, you will be liable for the travel costs in their entirety. You are recommended to take out a travel insurance that covers these costs.

Useful websites
If you wish to travel to Spain for the purpose of using healthcare services, you can find general information on our site concerning seeking treatment abroad. Some useful sources of information are also listed below. You should direct your questions about healthcare in Spain to the Spanish National Contact Point.
The website of the Spanish Ministry of Health has a search service (in Spanish) where you can find a public or private hospital. The search service operates primarily on the basis of geographical area.
The General Registry of Health Centres Services and Establishments (REGCESS) enables you to search for information about public and private healthcare providers in Spain and about their services. The registry includes hospitals, clinics and other treatment facilities, medical centres and, for example, optician and pharmacy services. You can set the search criteria in English or Spanish. The information on places of treatment is mainly in Spanish.
Additional information about healthcare service providers is available on the website of the Spanish Ministry of Health. All of the regions of Spain have their own websites concerning regional healthcare services. Some Regions have listed service providers (in Spanish) on their websites (see list of links at the end of the page) and information, for example, about waiting lists.
The website of the Spanish Ministry of Health has a list of patient associations that may be helpful if you are seeking treatment for a specific disorder.
Quality and safety of treatment
The Regional Authorities supervise the quality and safety of healthcare services provided in their region. You can obtain additional information by contacting the authorities for the region in which your place of treatment is located.
In the event of treatment injuries, the legislation and patient insurance of the country providing the treatment is always applied. In case you are unhappy with the treatment you received, you should primarily try to sort the matter out with the treatment provider. The national contact point can help you with finding the right authority if you wish to make a complaint.

before you can register as a resident
when you apply for a visa
This will usually be through social security contributions as an employee, private insurance or paying voluntary contributions (the ‘Convenio Especial’).
If you’re working or self-employed in Spain, you’re entitled to state healthcare on the same basis as a Spanish worker. Your dependants are also entitled (see ‘If you’re a dependant of someone living or working in Spain’ below).
Register at your local health centre with your social security number. You can get a social security number from your local National Social Security Institute (TGSS) office in Spain.
Your dependants need to register separately with the INSS.
You may be entitled to a Spanish EHIC for travel, including visits to the UK.
If you are not working and not entitled to an S1 form
If you’ve been a resident in Spain for 5 years or more, you can apply for permanent residency. This will give you access to state healthcare on the same basis as a Spanish citizen.
Once you’re a permanent resident, you need to register for healthcare at your local INSS office.
You’ll need to show a ‘legislation letter’ (‘documento de no exportación’ in Spanish) stating that you are not covered by the UK for healthcare. You can request this by calling NHS Overseas Healthcare Services.
NHS Overseas Healthcare Services
Telephone: +44 (0)191 218 1999
Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm
Saturday, 9am to 3pm
The INSS will give you a document which you need to take to your local health centre.
If the UK pays for your healthcare, for example through an S1 form, you cannot register for healthcare as a permanent resident.
If you are not a permanent resident and you are not working
If you’ve lived in Spain for over one year, you can apply to join the public health insurance scheme. This is called the Convenio Especial. You pay a monthly fee to join the scheme, which gives you access to the Spanish health system.
You can apply if you’ve been registered on the ‘padrón’ (at your local town hall) for at least one year.
Find out how to apply on your regional health authority’s website.
If you’ve lived in Spain for less than one year and cannot get healthcare cover, you’ll need to buy private health insurance.
If the UK pays for your healthcare, for example through an S1, you cannot join the Convenio Especial.
You may have the right to apply for a UK S1 if you start drawing a UK State Pension.
If you’re a dependant of someone living or working in Spain
Dependants and family members are classified differently in Spain than the UK.
Find out who’s considered a dependant under Spanish law.
If you classify as a dependant of someone entitled to state healthcare in Spain (because they’re either working in Spain, a permanent resident or receiving Spanish benefits) you’ll need to apply at your local INSS office.
If you are covered by the Withdrawal Agreement, you are entitled to access state healthcare in both Spain and Gibraltar for as long as you continue to live in Spain and work and make social security payments in Gibraltar. You can apply for an S1 form from Gibraltar.
If you are not covered by the Withdrawal Agreement, from 1 July 2022 you are no longer covered for state healthcare in Spain under reciprocal healthcare arrangements. You must check if you are entitled to access state healthcare in Spain via another route, or take out private healthcare insurance.
Contact the Spanish social security office (INSS) or the Gibraltar Health Authority if you are unsure of the status of your healthcare cover.
How to access healthcare services
Once you’re registered for healthcare, you’ll get a health insurance card. Take it with you whenever you visit a doctor, hospital or pharmacy.
Find your nearest clinic or hospital on the Spanish Ministry of Health website (in English)
How much you’ll pay
Once registered for healthcare, basic state services are free.
There are some things that you may need to pay a percentage of the cost for, such as orthopaedic services.
Spain uses a co-payment system where residents usually pay between 10% and 60% of the cost of prescription medication. How much you pay depends on your circumstances.
If you’re paying into the Convenio Especial, you’ll pay the full cost for prescription medication. You’ll also pay for:
non-urgent transportation
orthopaedic supplies
prostheses
dietary supplies
Some basic dental treatment is available under the state system, but most people use private dentists. Many private insurance companies have specific dental policies.
If your UK employer has sent you to Spain temporarily (‘posted workers’)
A posted worker, also known as a ‘detached worker’, is someone employed or self-employed in the UK, but temporarily sent to a European Economic Area (EEA) country.
UK posted workers can access healthcare in Spain using an EHIC, GHIC or S1 form.
HMRC has a helpline for National Insurance enquiries from non-UK residents. They can answer questions about posted worker status and explain which documents you will need to get healthcare while posted.
UK-funded healthcare: getting and using an S1 form in Spain
There’s different guidance if you’re a ‘posted worker’ (see ‘If your UK employer has sent you to Spain temporarily (‘posted workers’)’ above).
You may be entitled to state healthcare paid for by the UK if you’re a resident in Spain and receive a UK State Pension or an exportable benefit. See Planning your healthcare abroad on the NHS website for more information about eligibility.
You may also be entitled to an S1 form if you’re a frontier worker (someone who works in one state and lives in another). You must contact HMRC National Insurance enquiries to find out if you’re eligible.
When you get your S1 form, you must register it with the INSS.
This will mean you and your dependants will be entitled to state healthcare on the same basis as a Spanish citizen.
You’ll also get:
a UK-issued EHIC or GHIC for travel
planned treatments in other EU countries
If you’re entitled to an S1 form as a dependant of a State Pensioner, your health cover will be cancelled once you begin claiming your UK state pension.
You will be sent a new S1 form to your registered address from NHS Overseas Healthcare Services. You must register this form with the INSS to ensure continuation of healthcare cover.
You are responsible for informing NHS Overseas Healthcare Services if you change your address or your circumstances change.
NHS Overseas Healthcare Services
Telephone: +44 (0)191 218 1999
Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm
Saturday, 9am to 3pm
How to get an S1 form
If you have a UK State Pension or another qualifying exportable benefit, you must request an application form by phone from the Overseas Healthcare Services (see contact details above). This is part of the NHS Business Services Authority (BSA).
How to use an S1 form in Spain
You must register your S1 at your local INSS office or via the INSS online portal.
Read the guide to registering your S1 form online.
If you are experiencing delays registering your S1 with local authorities and require emergency or urgent treatment, contact the Overseas Healthcare Services on 0044 191 218 1999.
You can also check the status of your application online on the INSS website.
Once your registration has been processed, the INSS will send you a Spanish social security number by post. Take this to your local healthcare centre to register.
You’ll be given a medical card which you can use when you visit a doctor, hospital or pharmacy.
Studying in Spain
You should apply for a Student GHIC to get medically necessary, state-provided healthcare for the duration of your study period in Spain, whether this is for part or all of your course. This means that you’ll get necessary healthcare services on the same basis as a Spanish citizen either for free or at a reduced cost.
If you already hold a valid Student EHIC you can use this until the card expires.
Read more about eligibility and how to apply
Getting treatment in the UK
Because the NHS is a residency-based system, under NHS rules UK nationals who move abroad on a permanent basis may lose their entitlement to free NHS healthcare.
If you are a UK national and move to the EU, you should not expect to be able to use NHS services for free when visiting the UK unless you have an EHIC, PRC or S2 to show your healthcare costs are funded by the EU country in which you now live, or another exemption applies.
Some former UK residents do not have to pay for NHS treatment when visiting England. This includes:
UK war pensioners
UK government employees
UK nationals living in the EU on or before 31 December 2020, once they have a registered, UK-issued S1
Read more about using the NHS when you no longer live in the UK (see ‘UK nationals who no longer live in the UK’ in Healthcare for visitors to the UK from the EU).
If you return to live in the UK you’ll be able to use the NHS like any other UK resident.

The health care system in Spain is often considered as amongst the best in the world. On the whole, Spain has more doctors and hospital beds (per 1000 people) when compared with the US and UK.
When moving to a new country, it’s important to consider how you’ll stay safe and well. Medical insurance should be a serious consideration when relocating, to avoid substantial medical bills should you fall ill.
If you have something in place already, make sure you understand what medical treatment you are already covered for in your new country. If you don’t already have anything in place, here at Aetna International, we can help arrange full health insurance plans suited to your individual needs, so that you and your family get the best quality treatment, no matter how far you are away from home.
The health care system
Health care in Spain consists of both public and private facilities. In fact, some of the nation’s hospitals (hospitales) and health centres (centros de salud) offer both private (privado) and public (asistencia sanitaria pública) services. National health care is decentralised in Spain – it is the responsibility of the local authority in each region – and therefore health services can vary dependent on region.
Spain’s national health care system (el Sistema Nacional de Salud) is funded by social security (income tax) contributions known as Tesorería General de la Seguridad Social (TGSS ). Therefore, state health care is free at the point of use for anyone living and working in Spain. As an expat, you will be entitled to state health care if you are a resident of the country and are making social security contributions (through either employment or self-employment).
Once you are registered with the social security system in Spain, you are then able to apply for a health card (known as Tarjata Sanitaria Individual or TSI). The TSI should be presented when receiving medical treatment in a public facility and entitles you to free doctor and hospital treatment, as well as subsidised fees for prescription medication.
If you are not eligible for state health care then you should consider a private health insurance policy, to avoid costly medical fees if you do need to seek medical treatment.
Private medical cover is not a necessity for expats relocating to Spain, however, you may wish to choose it for the purposes of quicker treatment in private facilities.
Whilst el Sistema Nacional de Salud is generally rated as world class, like any national health service across the globe, it is not without its issues. Decentralisation of the health care system means there is a disparity in the quality of facilities available in individual regions of Spain. There can also lengthy waiting times and staff shortages for those using the public system.
Whilst many Spaniards do still rely on their national health service, most who are in a financial position to do so are now opting for private medical care. Dental care is not covered by el Sistema Nacional de Salud and the vast majority of dental and eye care is carried out in the private sector.
Help with health care costs in Spain
Pensioners from certain countries which have reciprocal agreements with the Spanish government, such as the UK, may be entitled to state care. For additional information on how to receive access to Spanish health care as a retiree, you can contact the social security department in your country of origin.
There is one other possibility for gaining assistance with health care costs in Spain: a pay-in scheme called the Convenio Especial. This scheme is designed to be low-cost public health insurance for those who otherwise do not meet the criteria to access the state health care system.
The scheme has not been launched in all areas of Spain, however, as of 2017 it is available in several provinces including Andalusia, Murcia, and the capital Madrid, as well as both the Balearic Islands and the Canary Islands.
To apply, you must have been registered at the local town hall on the Certificado de Empadronamiento for at least one year.
In an emergency
The number for most emergency situations in Spain is 112 and most operators speak both Spanish and English.
Health risks
Very few health risks are associated with travel to Spain. Indeed, risk from the sun — sunburn, prickly heat or heat stroke — are the most common visitors will face. These can be easily managed and prevented with adequate sun protection, keeping hydrated and staying in the shade during the peak sunshine hours (11am – 3pm).
It is also worth being aware that the UK Health Protection Agency deems Spain to be an ‘intermediate risk’ zone area for contaminated water, no doubt in large part due to the tourist industry and the many swimming pools in the country. Inadequately treated swimming pools can be hotbeds for the transmission of pathogens which can cause diarrhoea, vomiting, or infection of the ears, eyes, skin, or the respiratory system.
Measles outbreaks are reported fairly frequently in Spain and therefore MMR immunisation is strongly recommended. Other illnesses which are associated with Spain and the Mediterranean in general are: Tickborne Encephalitis (TBE) — usually associated with forested areas only — and Leishmaniasis, which is spread via insect bites. Precautions against insect bites are therefore wise, as is the case in any warm country.
In Catalonia, an outbreak of Enterovirus occurred in April 2016. Seventy-three children have been affected but most cases have resolved favourably and, as at May 2016, the virus has been confined to Catalonia.
Other risks
Spain is by and large a safe and trouble-free destination for foreigners but Spanish roads are some of Europe’s most dangerous. Drunk driving and a lax attitude to road rules in general mean that average fatality numbers on the roads are the second highest in Europe. Be extra vigilant while driving in Spain, and when crossing the roads in major cities such as Madrid, which has a particularly bad traffic problem.
Theft from parked cars in larger cities is also sometimes an issue, so be sure to hide valuables and park in secure parking lots, rather than on the street. There are reports of various confidence tricks being played on tourists in major holiday destinations. Be wary of lottery ticket and timeshare scams being operated in holiday resort areas, particularly the Canary Islands and the Costa del Sol.
Political concerns
Spain is a peaceful democratic country and there are few major political concerns or problems that tourists or expatriates are likely to encounter. There have been isolated bomb attacks by the Basque separatist group ETA in tourist areas within the last decade, leaving a handful of people dead, but the risk to expatriates and tourists from their activities is minimal. In 2011, the group announced a permanent ceasefire. Large-scale demonstrations occur occasionally in big cities and should be avoided, although the risk of serious violence is minimal.
That being said, Spain along with many other countries in the world also faces threats from terrorist activities in the current global political climate, the threat being deemed highest in large cities, especially the capital of Madrid.

At the InterNations Events, I didn’t only enjoy dancing the night away at some great venues, but I also got to know some great friends.
This guide will provide you with an overview of the healthcare system and health insurance in Spain. We go over everything from who is eligible for public healthcare coverage, to finding a doctor, what costs to expect, and an overview on giving birth in the country.
Spanish healthcare is established widely throughout the country. It is public, free, and available to every Spanish resident. People who work pay monthly social security contributions to uphold the public healthcare system. These contributions guarantee that almost everyone can access healthcare for free and only has to pay a percentage on prescriptions.
There are only very few cases in which people are not eligible for public healthcare. These cases are mostly non-residents who still have their own health insurance abroad. Be advised that some health centers and hospitals offer both public and private services. You will need to make it clear which service you are opting for. When in doubt, consult Sistema Nacional de Salud (SNS), which regulates public healthcare in Spain.

How Healthcare Works in Spain
Apart from some small costs, like a deductible on prescriptions, the public healthcare system in Spain is free for every citizen. This is made possible because it is funded by social security payments from employed and self-employed workers. Everybody working and paying taxes in Spain is eligible for public healthcare, which covers almost everything you need. Spouses and children of the insured person also benefit from coverage. In this section, we will break down Spain’s healthcare system and explain how it works, as well as list the pros and cons.
Spain’s Public Healthcare System: Pros and Cons
Relocating to a new country requires a lot of research on the local healthcare system. It is advisable to relocate with travel insurance that can be cancelled when the local insurance comes into effect.
Before breaking down the pros and cons of Spain’s healthcare system, let’s look into some interesting healthcare facts.
According to a national survey, the general opinion is that public healthcare services work well and provide sufficient care.
This is not very surprising, considering that spending for healthcare amounts to 9% of the country’s annual GDP. Spain is the 13th biggest spender in Europe, with an average annual spending of 2000 EUR (2,265 USD) per person.
Spain is required by law to provide emergency and basic care for its citizens.
Pros of Public Healthcare in Spain
The Spanish public healthcare system is generally of high quality, with well-trained medical staff.
Spain has a good network of hospital and medical centers, some of which are ranked among the best in the world.
The public healthcare system also covers the direct family of a beneficiary, such as spouses, dependents under 26 years of age, and siblings.
Cons of Public Healthcare in Spain
The waiting times for surgeries, procedures, and treatment from specialist doctors are frequently cited as the main setback of public healthcare in Spain.
Public healthcare services do not allow you to choose your doctor or specialist.
You may have some difficulty finding English-speaking staff in public hospitals or care centers.
Lack of coverage of dental care and other treatments often leads insured people to supplement public services with private insurance.
What Does Public Healthcare Cover in Spain?
When thinking of public healthcare, most people automatically think of Medicare. Public healthcare in Spain is called SNS (Servicio Nacional de la Salud) and is more inclusive than Medicare, as it is targeted at every resident. It also provides primary care services, such as family medicine, pediatrician, nursing services, midwives, and physiotherapists, as well as all matters related to prevention, diagnosis, rehabilitation, and emergency services. You will be appointed a family doctor and pediatrician in your region, who will refer you to a specialist when needed.
The type of healthcare services provided may vary between autonomous regions, so always check the conditions that apply to you and your place of residence.
Does Spain Have Free or Public Healthcare?
Free healthcare is confused with public healthcare. In order to explain the costs of Spain’s healthcare system, it is necessary to differentiate both terms. Spain offers public healthcare. Basically, every person paying into the social security fund is making public healthcare available to everyone else, as well. Old people, children, unemployed workers can all access healthcare for free even if they themselves don’t pay social security. The costs of public healthcare may vary between autonomous regions as well. On average, you will find out-of-pocket payments to be around 24% of the total cost. This is higher than in most European countries.
You are also responsible for the costs of any pharmaceutical, orthotic, prosthetic, and other health products. You may pay between 10 and 60% of the full price, depending on your level of income. Medicines and pharmaceuticals can only be purchased at pharmacies, and some require prescriptions.
Public healthcare does not usually cover adult dental care, except for basic extractions. Dental prostheses and eyeglasses are also not covered by the Spanish healthcare system.
The national healthcare system issues documentation for sick leave or other medical discharge certificates that are deemed necessary.
Who is Eligible for Public Healthcare in Spain?
Spain offers its residents public healthcare, which is covered by social security contributions. To benefit from public healthcare, you will need:
legal residency;
to be registered with the Instituto Nacional de la Seguridad Social (INSS), the National Institute of Social Security;
public health card, tarjeta sanitariaindividual (this card must be shown every time you visit a public hospital or health center).
Family members of insured people may also benefit from public healthcare, but only if they legally reside in Spain. This includes spouses, children under 26-years-old, and siblings of the insured person.
In Spain, if you do not meet the criteria for any type of public healthcare, the Spanish Social Security offers a special pay-in scheme, the Convenio Especial. This allows access to the public healthcare system for a monthly fee. You can request the Convenio Especial by presenting the form TA-0040 at the social security office of your place of residence.
How to Obtain the Tarjeta Sanitaria Individual?
You can get a tarjeta sanitaria individual at the local health center (Centro de Salud) that corresponds to your place of residence. You will need to contact your local Centro de Salud to know the exact procedures for applying for this card, as requirements may vary by autonomous regions. In general, make sure to bring your identifying information and any other documents that prove you are eligible for social security.
If you are living in Spain, but cannot benefit from Social Security (for example, you do not work in the country), or you are a beneficiary of an insured person, you can apply for public healthcare. To do so, you must visit your local social security office with the following documents:
The application form for recognition of the right to healthcare.
An identification document:
EU citizens: the certificate of registration and national ID or passport;
Non-EU citizens: TIE (Tarjeta de Identidad de Extranjeros) and your passport.
If registering beneficiaries, such as spouses, children, or siblings, you will need a family record book, or civil registry that proves your relationship with the insured person.
After the INSS confirms that you qualify as an insured person or beneficiary, you can apply for a tarjeta sanitaria individual.
Costs for People Who Do Not Qualify for Public Healthcare
People who do not have medical insurance will be treated in case of an emergency, but they will be required to pay for the treatment. The costs vary depending on the type of treatment.
As mentioned above, if you do not meet the criteria for any type of public healthcare in Spain, the Spanish Social Security offers a special pay-in scheme. This allows access to the public healthcare system for a monthly fee of 60 EUR (67 USD), or 157 EUR (176 USD) for people over 65 years of age. To request this type of healthcare plan, fill out the form TA-0040, and hand it in at the social security office of your place of residence.
An Overview of Private Health Insurance in Spain
Generally, you do not need private health insurance in Spain but knowing how it works is always a good idea. If you would like to avoid the delays of public healthcare, or if you simply prefer to have private health insurance, there are many insurance types and plans to choose from.
However, it is important to keep in mind that you need health insurance to enter Spain. Most visa applications require proof of healthcare. It is advisable to either have travel health insurance from your home country or, better yet, apply for a private healthcare plan in Spain. The insurance companies in Spain will know how the local healthcare system works and which procedures are covered with your plan.
How to Get Private Healthcare in Spain?
Anyone can get private health insurance in Spain. There are no specific requirements. Opting for it has manybenefits such as allowing quicker access to specialists, the possibility of choosing English-speaking healthcare providers, and overall more comfortable hospitals and medical centers.
In general, private insurance is used by around 19% of Spanish residents. Many Spaniards choose to add a private plan to their public healthcare to access quicker and more extensive treatments. A lot of health insurances even offer both public and private provisions. Some job contracts may include private health insurance, so check with your employer before signing with an insurance company.
Private healthcare plans are especially popular among expats. Mainly because in 2013, a law that regulates the Spanish healthcare system was modified and a lot of healthcare services became inaccessible for expats. Moreover, expats are required to show proof of health insurance when applying to visas. If you cannot find work right away, you need to demonstrate to the government that you won’t cost them a lot of money in case of an accident.
Why do I need Private Health Insurance in Spain?
Which are the specific situations in which expats need to show proof of private health insurance?
When applying for a residency card as a family member of an EU citizen.
When reuniting a family member.
When you are a non-EU citizen on a student visa.
When applying for a non-lucrative residency.
When applying for Golden Visa.
When applying for a tourist visa.
Types Private Health Insurance Providers
When choosing private healthcare insurance, it is advisable to make your decision based on the coverage and package each provider offers, and not solely on the cheapest plan. This could turn out costly in case of emergencies, if your plan does not cover everything.
You can choose from a variety of health insurance plans in Spain: from low-cost plans with few services to more extensive health insurance coverage. Health insurance plans vary depending on the insurance companies. You can check prices and deals on their individual websites and easily sign with an insurance plan online.
The most popular Spanish Private Insurance providers are:
Sanitas
Adeslas
Asisa
If you are unsure which provider to choose, you can always check out the websites Rastreator and Acierto. Both compare different private plans and options and help you find the best one for your individual needs.
Average Cost of a Health Insurance in Spain
Are you wondering how much private health insurance is? The cost will depend on your age, gender, and any pre-existing conditions. The average cost of health insurance is typically from 100 to 200 EUR (112 to 224 USD) per month. You can also find plans for as low as 50 EUR (56 USD) per month with some of the bigger insurance companies. Primary care consultations and specialists in the private sector usually cost between 100 and 150 EUR (112 to 168 USD) per consultation.
For those who prefer to use private health insurance to supplement services not covered by public health insurance, there are basic, affordable plans that include services like dental care and blood tests, but exclude surgeries and hospitalization.
With most private plans, you will be asked make co-payments upfront for services. The rest of the treatment will usually be covered by your insurance. However, you may still receive additional bills via the mail even after your co-payments, so always check which specific procedures are covered by your insurance plan. You may also have some triangulation between your insurance provider and hospitals or medical centers, so expect to play some part in the communication between these services.
How to Find Doctors or Dentist
If you are at the stage in your relocation, where you are wondering how to find a doctor or dentist, then congratulations, you have come very far. As part of the public healthcare system in Spain, you are entitled to a family doctor who can offer consultations free of charge. You just need to register with your local clinic and bring along your registration documents (such as the empadronamiento from when you first registered your place of residence). A family doctor will then be assigned to you. These are general practitioners who can refer you to a specialist in the public healthcare system whenever needed.
In general, if you need to find a doctor or specialist, you should not have much difficulty. You can easily find private practices if you search for médicos near you. Dental services are not covered by public healthcare, so you will need to look for a private dentist. To find a dentist, you can look up dentistas online. You can also search for reviews and compare prices on specialized websites such as Medigo.com.
The first dentist appointment and dental check-up are often free of charge, but any procedures thereafter are charged. The prices are set by each medical practice. For reference, a filling tends to cost around 60 EUR (67 USD).
How to Find Specialists
If you need a specialist, your general practitioner (family doctor) will refer you. This referral is important for insurance purposes. If you visit a specialist without a referral, your insurance may not cover any of the costs. You also run the risk that a specialist may not treat you without a referral. If you want to look for a family doctor or a specialist, you can check the medical directory.
Keep in mind, whenever you request public healthcare services, be sure to carry your personal health card with you (tarjeta sanitaria individual).
What are the Waiting Times to See a Doctor in Spain?
You can expect long wait times and delays with public healthcare services in Spain. On average, you may have to wait around 57 days to see a specialist. The longest delays are for traumatologists (68 days) and ophthalmologists (64 days).
For surgeries, the average national wait time is 93 days. However, these delays vary from region to region. Madrid, La Rioja, and the Basque Country tend to have the shortest waiting periods for surgery: 48 days. The Canary Islands, Castilla-La Mancha, and Catalonia have the longest wait times: around 140 days.
Hospitals in Spain
The public healthcare system covers emergency care, which includes going to the hospital in case of an emergency or having to undergo surgery. Public and private hospitals in Spain are ranked among the best in the world. The only downside to public healthcare in Spain is the long waiting lists for specialists and non-emergency care.
To find the nearest hospital, check the Spanish health ministry website.
Ambulance Services in Spain
To call for emergency assistance (ambulance, police, fire department) in Spain, you will need to dial the number 112. The first responders are trained staff among of which at least one is an emergency physician, an emergency nurse, an emergency medical technician, and a patient transport assistant. The Spanish emergency medical services consist of a two-tiered response system, Advance Life Support with physicians and nurses, and Basic Support with technicians. After assessing you on site, the staff will transport you to the nearest hospital.
Emergency care is generally covered by public health care in Spain. If you have private healthcare or are not yet eligible for Spanish healthcare, you will probably need to pay for the services yourself and send an invoice to your healthcare provider.
Where to Get your Medication in Spain
Over-the-counter medication in Spain can be purchased in pharmacies. Prescription medication will need to be prescribed by your physician and can later be obtained at a pharmacy.
Costs for Prescription Medication in Spain
There are prescription fees in Spain. Children are free of charge. Pensioners who receive a state pension are only charged 10%. Employed Spanish citizens pay the highest rate, with a charging fee of 50%.

Giving Birth in Spain
Giving birth in Spain as a non-resident is not such a hassle. The costs for uninsured foreigners are reasonable. However, it is crucial to have insurance to obtain a visa. It is not possible to be uninsured in Spain.
As a registered short-term or permanent resident with access to public or private healthcare, the cost of having a baby in Spain is covered by insurance. The benefits of giving birth in Spain as a permanent resident are many. Mother and child are accompanied medically throughout the whole pregnancy and after with prenatal exams, scans and intervention during delivery and after childbirth.
Having a Baby in Spain as a Foreigner
As a registered working resident in Spain, you have access to public healthcare. If you are pregnant and decide to give birth in a public healthcare facility, a hospital in your district will be assigned to you. If you happen to go into labor while far away from your assigned hospital, other hospitals will take care of you.
Cost of Having a Baby in Spain
If you are entitled to using state healthcare, giving birth in Spain is free. If you have private insurance, the additional personal costs might vary depending on your insurance plan. In this case, it is best to find a plan that covers childbirth in full.
Giving Birth in Spain without Health Insurance
Being uninsured in Spain is practically unheard-of, as it is stated in the Spanish constitution that the government has to provide basic and preventative care for all. If you really are uninsured for some reason, then you won’t risk bankruptcy just for having a child. According to a study, the costs for giving birth in Spain are one of the lowest in the world at around 1,950 USD.
Giving Birth in Spain for Citizenship
In the US, children born in national territory are immediately awarded citizenship, regardless of their parents’ nationality. Spain operates with different laws. A child of foreigners is not automatically awarded Spanish citizenship just for being born on Spanish ground.
Spanish law follows the concept of Ius sanguinis (right of blood) before applying the concept of Ius soli (right of territory). Children born in Spain to non-Spanish parents, will have the parents’ nationality. If either of the parents are Spanish nationals, or were born in Spain, then the child is eligible to apply for Spanish citizenship.
This said, according to article 17 of the Civil Code, Spain does award Spanish nationality to babies born in Spain, if the parent’s nationality cannot be awarded to the child for legitimate reasons. For example, if both parents come from a country that does not automatically award nationality by blood. In these cases, Spain operates under article 15 of the Universal Declaration of Human rights, which dictates that every human being is entitled to a nationality.

The Canary Islands intend to become a “paradise” for startups

Madrid, June 10, AZERTAC
Less taxes in exchange for a stable job. The authorities of the Canary Islands intend to use this formula to attract start-ups and fuel the economy of the archipelago, which has been hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic.
According to AZERTAC, the President of the Special Zone of the Canary Islands (ZEC), Pablo Hernández, has indicated that innovative science, technology and audiovisual companies will no longer need to make a minimum investment in archipelago assets in order to receive income tax benefits. However, innovative companies need to create and sustain quality jobs.
Startups that register with the ZEC will be subject to Spanish corporate tax at a reduced tax rate of 4 percent. (instead of 25 percent in the rest of Spain), and must also create at least six jobs.
ZEC is a low-tax area created under the “Economic and Fiscal Regime” of the Canary Islands with the aim of stimulating the economic and social development of the archipelago and diversifying its industrial structure.
The Canary Islands, while nowhere near the numbers of Madrid or Barcelona, is the second region in Spain to attract the most digital talent in percentage terms in recent years, only behind the Basque Country. From 2019 to the first quarter of this year, according to the National Institute of Statistics (INE), this indicator grew by 32 percent, and the number of active technical workers reached 22,000 people.

An appointment with specialist doctors is possible with a referral from your local general practitioner. An appointment with a therapist must be made at the reception of the medical center. In Spain, it is not practiced to call a doctor at home, only in emergency cases you can call an ambulance.
To call an ambulance in Tenerife, call – 112
The same applies to children, even if your child has a fever, you must go to the pediatrician’s appointment yourself. The disadvantages of free medicine are that there are huge queues for specialist doctors, especially to get an appointment with any specialist you need a clear reason (complaints, pain). If you need emergency care, then you will be examined on the day of treatment, all the necessary tests will be carried out. Social Security drugs are purchased at a discount with a doctor’s prescription, and some drugs, such as antibiotics, cannot be bought without a doctor’s prescription.
Pharmacies in Tenerife
Pharmacies are called “Farmacia”. All pharmacies work on an individual schedule, mostly until 21:00. In pharmacies, in addition to medicines, you can buy baby food, cosmetics, medicated shampoos, toothpastes, sunscreens, and they are of the best quality.

Private health insurance
Private health insurance gives you more options. Firstly, access to any specialist doctors without a queue, and secondly, you save a lot of money, since medicine in Tenerife is not cheap. You can choose your own doctor and hospital, come to consultations, take tests, do ultrasounds, medical tests and get test results faster than social security patients. During hospitalization, a separate room and food will be provided.
Private health insurance does not cover infertility treatments, transplants or cosmetic surgery.
There are other so-called “dark spots” of private health insurance that you should know in advance. For example, you need a complex surgical operation, but you have recently insured, then in this case you will have to pay yourself. The insurance covers all expenses for surgical operations after 8-9 months from the date of conclusion of the contract. Similarly for childbirth, the insurance bears the costs if you have concluded a contract for 9-12 months before pregnancy.
The amount of private insurance depends on the company, on the insurance policy, and on the age and sex of the insured person.

An investigation linking monkeypox to partying in the Canary Islands
Portuguese authorities believe that some cases of monkeypox may be linked to parties that took place in April and May in the Canary Islands, reports CNN Portugal.
The report says that there was a case of a man who presented with skin lesions on April 20, but since the circulation of this virus in Europe was not yet known at that time, the case was not evaluated at the National Institute of Health of Dr. Ricardo Jorge , an organization that conducts tests to be sure of the presence of a given viral agent. At that time, the patient was tested several times for sexually transmitted diseases – and they were all negative.
However, national health authorities believe that this case may have been the first or one of the first cases of monkeypox in Portugal.
The medical report describes the lesions and all other symptoms as those now known to be caused by the Monkeypox virus. When contacting the medical services, this man said that he had returned from a trip to the Canary Islands, where he participated in some parties. This could mean that the disease was already in Portugal in mid-April.
In the meantime, there are other reports that link the transmission of the disease to other parties in the Canary Islands, namely Pride Maspolamas, an event that attracted 80,000 people and took place from 5 to 15 May.

We are glad to share with you new information about Spain:
PURPOSE. From July 1, Spain is ready to receive foreign tourists on safe terms. This will save part of the tourist season while ensuring maximum sanitary safety conditions and minimizing the risk of contracting the virus by importing it from abroad.
BORDERS. With the reopening of the country marked on the calendar, we continue to work more intensely and closely with our European partners than ever to define reopening rules and general rules for the restoration of freedom of movement in the Schengen area (+ UK) based on three prerequisites: security guarantees, health system capabilities and transparency. We rely on a gradual, coordinated and non-discriminatory opening between territories with the same epidemiological situation, that is, not only countries, but also regions.
CORRIDORS. The possibility of opening safe routes with third countries located outside the EU, which have appropriate adequate epidemiological conditions and are based on reciprocity criteria, is being considered. This decision will be made by the European Center for Disease Control.
DIRECTIONS SPAIN. By the end of June, all destinations in the country will complete the process of easing restrictive measures and achieve normalization of life in the new conditions, therefore, if the epidemiological situation does not require otherwise, all of them will be open to receive tourists from both their own country and foreign ones.
SAFETY AND TRUST. Tourism needs security. Security is essential both at the point of departure and at the destination. We guarantee that tourists will not be at risk, nor will they bring risks to our country. We are ready to accept foreign tourists. Work has been done to implement maximum hygiene measures throughout the tourism chain in order to reduce the risk of coronavirus infection (21 guidelines developed).
CONTROL. Quarantine is canceled from July 1st. In Europe, work is underway to develop common protocols / controls to ensure safety and not mislead tourists.
Travel memories, desire to return, places we want to visit… today we already know the date when we will stop dreaming and make our dream come true: July 1st.
Mark this date on your calendar and start planning your visit to Spain.

The pandemic in Spain has stabilized and every day the Spanish Ministry of Health reports a reduction in new infections.
The Spanish government, along with the EU countries, have been negotiating the opening of the borders between the Schengen area since June 15th.
And for other countries, Spain plans to open its borders from the end of June.
Of course, if the development of the pandemic allows it.
The first hotels are already opening (for national tourism), although most hotels will open from 01 July.
Museums, concert halls, parks, palaces, cathedrals and other places of cultural interest will operate normally by the time the borders are opened, but with a reduction in the number of visitors.
The Spanish government has developed a draft with the standards necessary for opening hotels.
The main condition is to ensure the safety for the health of guests and employees.
These standards have not yet been finally approved, since some of them are either unrealistic or excessively expensive, but the silhouette is already clearing up.
So, the new reality in the organization of the hotel assumes:
Reducing hotel occupancy to 50-70% (calculation of people per square meter)
Transition or increase of online check-in to minimize the accumulation of check-in queues
Denial or restriction of parking service by hotel staff
Reducing the acceptance of cash payments, switching to card payments
Schedules for the hotel restaurants on buffet
Refusal of some hotels from the buffet, switching to a la card and room service.
At the buffet table, the serving of prepared dishes and food products will be done by a waiter or a chef at the request of the client.
Avoid sauces, gravies, butter, salt, etc. in reusable bottles.
With All Inclusive service waiter service.
Distance of 2 meters between sunbeds and tables on site and in public areas.
Installation of ionizers and UV lamps for complete disinfection of public areas.
Daily general cleaning of the rooms, down to hair dryer filters, decorations, hangers, etc.
Reducing the number of decoration items in rooms and public areas.
If possible, remove carpets, curtains, minibars in rooms.
Individual covers for pillows and blankets.
Hotel employees must be tested for COVID19, decontaminate work clothes daily, avoid contact with other hotel employees unnecessarily, refuse to wear loose hair and jewelry to work.
Hotel back rooms, vendors and all deliveries will also be monitored.
Hotels that meet all government conditions will receive a COVID FREE certificate.
Beaches officially reopen in Spain on June 7th.
The government does not mandate the installation of plastic partitions, as in other countries, but it will be necessary to maintain a distance of 2 meters between sunbeds and towels.
Not all hotels will be open, but only those that have the required number of bookings. Chain hotels plan to open one per zone.

Source : press release from Tenerife Tourism Office
hotels for quarantine. This statement was made by the head of the Canary Islands, Victor Torres. He explained that the experience at h20 Costa Adeje Palace showed that it is not necessary to insulate the entire building. Only those who have tested positive, as well as those who have had direct contact with the infected, should be quarantined.
At the same time, the Canarian authorities noted that the introduction of quarantine in the h20 Costa Adeje Palace was the right decision, meeting the requirements of the World Health Organization, the Spanish Ministry of Health and was supported by the Adeje City Hall. These measures have helped contain the spread of the coronavirus outside the hotel.
Coronavirus did not affect the life of Tenerife in any way – it is safe on the island
The coronavirus outbreak has significantly affected the global economy. The Tenerife Tourism Office, together with the city administration, has developed a plan that is designed to mitigate the negative impact on the tourism industry of island Spain.
The detection of the COVID-19 virus does not affect the daily life of Tenerife in any way. Schools, shops, ports and airports operate as usual without any restrictions. The same can be said about beaches, parks, museums and other public places.
The plan to reduce the damage to tourism consists of two parts: the first is devoted to information work with local residents, the second is the dissemination of reliable information outside the island. To do this, the Tenerife Tourism Office monitors daily news about the virus abroad, especially in the UK, France, Germany, Russia and the United States of America.
Up-to-date newsletters for travel operators, agencies, airlines and news portals will be prepared daily. The strategy of the plan also includes a large-scale advertising campaign on the Internet and offline.
The Tenerife Regional Health Authority announced that on March 3, another quarantined tourist tested positive for coronavirus. The infected guest is not related to the group of Italian travelers – epidemiologists are working to establish the source of infection. The patient feels normal, the disease proceeds without any complications – he was transferred to a separate ward of a local hospital. There are also five other residents who tested positive for COVID-19..
In turn, 193 people who were quarantined at the h20 Costa Adeje Palace hotel have already gone home. The Spanish Ministry of Health, in conjunction with the regional health department, has set the rules for guests leaving the hotel. Tourists who arrived on February 24 along with those infected with coronavirus could fly home in three cases. If they test negative the day before departure, they have no symptoms and their countries guarantee that they will be monitored further.
The regional health department notes the prompt actions of the authorities and the professionalism of doctors, their strict adherence to the protocol developed by the World Health Organization. This played a key role in limiting the spread of the Wuhan virus on the island.
The Minister of Health and the Head of Epidemiology have advised tourists who develop any symptoms of coronavirus (dry cough, sore throat, fever, fever, difficulty breathing) or if they have been in “risk areas” in the last 14 days, call 112. Visits to medical centers should be avoided. Taking tests at home is one precaution to avoid expanding areas of close contact.
Risk zones are China, South Korea, Japan, Singapore, Iran, as well as the regions of Lombardy, Emilia-Romagna and Piedmont in Italy.

Source: official statement by the President of the Canary Islands, Mr.
Along with August, September is one of the hottest months for Tenerife, Canary Islands, when the days are long and sunny, the nights are warm and short and rain is almost guaranteed not to fall. During this month, the average temperature for the island is 23⁰C, created by average highs of 27⁰C during the daytime and average lows of 20⁰C at night.
Both the weather and the temperature can vary greatly between Tenerife North and Tenerife South. The southern resorts, such as Los Cristianos and Playa de Las Americas, generally enjoy higher temperatures and more sunshine than northern resorts, such as Puerto de La Cruz. So if you’re a sun worshipper and want the highest temperatures and clearest skies possible, you’re best off staying in Tenerife South in September. Nevertheless, if you prefer slightly cooler temperatures and don’t mind the odd cloudy day, Tenerife North might be better for you.
In September, daily averages gradually decrease as the month develops. Daily averages start off at 26⁰C during the first few days of the month, before they drop down to 25⁰C. During the final two weeks of the month, daily averages fluctuate between 25⁰C and 24⁰C. This makes the first week of September the hottest time to visit Tenerife.
Highs and Lows
The highest temperature ever registered in Tenerife in September is 41.8⁰C, which was recorded at Tenerife South Airport on September 6th 1986. The lowest temperature ever registered on the island during this month is 0⁰C, which was recorded at Izaña on September 14th 1970.
If you don’t like hot temperatures and would prefer to visit Tenerife when things are a bit milder, consider holidaying in October or June, when average temperatures are 21⁰C-22⁰C.
Rain
Tenerife receives only a tiny amount of rainfall in September, when the likelihood of precipitation steadily increases as the month develops. In Tenerife North, the probability of rainfall starts off at 18% on September 1st and rises up to 28% by September 30th. In Tenerife South, the chance of rainfall begins at 5% on September 1st and rises up to 10% by September 30th.
Throughout the month, the whole of Tenerife receives an average of 9mm of rainfall which falls on a single day. The most common types of precipitation you can expect to see on the island during this month are drizzle, light rain or moderate rain.
The highest monthly rainfall ever registered in Tenerife in September is 142.3mm, which was recorded at Izaña during September 1967. The 12th of that month was declared the wettest September day ever, when 75.9mm of water fell within a single 24-hour period. What’s more the maximum number of wet days Tenerife has ever seen in September is 14, which was registered at Tenerife North Airport during September 1993.
Average Sunshine Hours
During September, Tenerife boasts an average of eight hours of daily sunshine, along with median cloud coverage which slowly increases as the month develops. In Tenerife South, median cloud coverage begins at 31% on September 1st and steadily rises up to 38% by September 30th. In Tenerife North, cloud coverage begins at the slightly higher 40% and climbs up to 44% by September 30th.
Average Sea Temperatures
Thanks to the year-round mild temperatures that Tenerife enjoys, the sea is almost warm enough for swimming in. In September, the average sea temperature for the island is 24⁰C that’s as hot as it gets in the Canary Islands.
Humidity
The relative humidity for Tenerife in September averages at around 70%, ranging between 51% (mildly humid) and 82% (very humid), rarely reaching as high as 100% (very humid) or dropping below 24% (dry).
In Tenerife North, the air is driest around September 1st, when the relative humidity falls below 61% (mildly humid) three days out of four, whilst it’s at its most humid around September 23rd, when it rises above 88% (very humid) three days out of four.
In Tenerife South, the air is driest around September 1st, when it drops below 61% (mildly humid) three days out of four, whilst it’s at its most humid around September 22nd, when it rises above 78% (humid) three days out of four.
Wind
Over the course of an average September in Tenerife, typical wind speeds vary between 1 m/s (light air) and 10 m/s (fresh breeze), rarely rising above 13 m/s (strong breeze). The highest average wind speed of 6 m/s (moderate breeze) happens around September 1st, when the average daily maximum wind speed is 10 m/s (fresh breeze).
The lowest average wind speed of 5 m/s (gentle breeze) occurs around September 30th in the north and September 26th in the south, with the average daily maximum is 7 m/s (moderate breeze) in the north and 9 m/s (fresh breeze) in the south. The strongest wind ever registered in Tenerife in September is 38.3 m/s, which was registered in Izaña on September 14th 2014.
Weather Hazards
Calima
Even though calimas can affect Tenerife during any month, they’re especially bad when they happen during summer and the months either side, like September. A calima occurs when instead of cool trade winds blowing in from the north east, they blow in directly from the east.
When they blow in this way, the winds first pass over the Sahara Desert in northern Africa, bringing with them high temperatures (often as high as 10⁰C above the average) and low visibility due to a high concentration of dust and sand particles in the air. Although there is no severe danger caused by a calima, it is generally uncomfortable for everyone on the island, especially those with breathing conditions.
When there’s a calima, the Canarian MET office issues a weather alert. On September 7th 2011, the weather office issued a yellow alert for high temperatures of up to 35⁰C in south, west and east of the island. This alert was then upgraded to orange on September 8th 2011, when temperatures were expected to be in excess of 40⁰C in Tenerife, as well as in Gran Canaria.

Tenerife Beach for September
Playa Fanabe
If you’re looking for a family-friendly beach in the south of Tenerife, Playa Fañabe in Costa Adeje is ideal. This beach is backed by a long promenade where you’ll find a wealth of British and international cafes, bars and restaurants, plus souvenir shops and supermarkets. The sand here is a cross between golden and volcanic, which can sometimes make it look a bit grey. The eastern side of the beach is the most family-friendly section, where you’ll find sun loungers and parasols available to hire, plus showers, toilets, lifeguards, a beach bar and water sports, including jet skiing, pedaloes and banana boats.
The western side of the beach is more upmarket and has more expensive beach bars which play chilled out dance music, Balinese-style beds and the same facilities you’ll find at the eastern side of the beach.
The sea at Playa Fañabe is protected by the harbour on the eastern side and several rocky breakwaters staggered along the rest of the coast. Not only do these breakwaters make sure the sea stays calm and perfect for swimming in all weather conditions, but they also provide the perfect environment for snorkelling and diving. If you get tired of sunbathing and swimming, head to the promenade where you can play a round of crazy golf or watch the kids have fun on the trampolines.
Playa El Camison
For something a bit quieter, visit the Blue Flag Playa El Camison in Playa de Las Americas. This small golden sandy beach is located just a short walk down from the Safari Centre and has basic facilities, including sun beds, shades, showers, toilets and an ice cream kiosk, as well as a small and rather expensive restaurant which closes early evening.

Although during busy seasons, you might struggle to get a spot even here! Thanks to its small size and the rocky structures which wrap around the outside of this bay, the sea at Playa El Camison is really calm, making it popular with swimmers of all abilities.
Bars and Restaurants
Harriet’s Tea Room

Things to do in Tenerife in September
Anaga
Anaga is a beautiful part of north eastern Tenerife which includes mountains, coastline, forests, ravines and remote villages. This area is a protected landscape and includes the famous Roques de Anaga large rock formations in the sea which have been shaped by erosion. The Barranco de Las Huertas is another interesting part of the area where you can see amazing views which stretch on for miles over the green mountainous parts of the area and out to sea.
Walkers and hikers of all abilities will love the numerous walking trails. These trials are very clearly signposted and last for anywhere from ten minutes to six hours, making them suitable for everyone. Since Anaga is so high up and mountainous, this part of Tenerife is often very cool, cloudy and misty all-year-round. So make sure you take a jumper or jacket and a pair of trousers to throw on before you go exploring.
Parque Taoro
Parque Taoro in Puerto de la Cruz is a great place to spend the day, whatever the weather. This park covers 100,000m2 and is divided into three sections La Atalaya where you’ll find the impressive lookout point, el Camino de La Sortija and Los Jardines del Taoro. All the gardens are bursting with flower beds full of native species, stone steps, ponds, waterfalls, old maps and great views.
There are also loads of small lizards throughout the park which will be happy to eat any leftovers if you brought a picnic with you. There are also several cafes in the area, where you can relax and enjoy a coffee as you watch the world go by. This park is open all day 365 days a year and is totally free to enter.

A-ZABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
The largest and most populated of the seven Canary Islands, Tenerife sees an estimated five million tourists a year. It is the site of one of the world’s largest carnivals and allows access to tourists via not one but two airports. Many of these visitors come to Tenerife to enjoy the stunning vistas of its UNESCO world heritage sites, such as the city of La Laguna, and the beautiful and vast Teide National Park, featuring the highest points of the island.
Many of Tenerife’s tourism is centered around its historical sites, as well as the many beach resort towns it has to offer. The stable and mild climate of this island has its geo-location to thank for, as it is nestled between the Atlantic ocean and its chilly trade winds, and the Sahara and its hot and arid breeze. This creates a balance in this region’s temperatures that cause the weather to change only minimally, even between the height of summer and the dead of winter.
The start of the year in Tenerife is surprisingly warm, considering it is the height of winter. January has an average temperature of around 19°C, with approximately 10 hours of sunlight per day to spend outdoors. However, these months also mark the most unpredictable in Tenerife’s weather, as January especially is said to bring much rainfall. On average, you can expect up to 160mm of rain, which can occur suddenly and without warning. During brighter days, the sea is still a joy to swim in, as its temperature usually stays around a lovely 20°C.
FEBRUARY
Should you choose to spend Valentine’s day in Tenerife, you will be pleased to know that the average temperature during February is around 20°C. This means that days and evenings spent by the beach are cozy and comfortable, although you may need a sweater at night as the temperature drops to 13°C. In February you can expect some 148mm of rainfall, as the weather is hard to predict, while the temperature of the sea lingers at a pleasant 19°C still.
MARCH
Tenerife in March has an average temperature of around 21°C, as the summer months come closer. As it is still the end of winter, evening temperatures can always drop to a cool 13°C on average, so you should have some warmer clothes ready for nights spent dining outdoors. Quite a bit of rain can be expected in March, as the average precipitation is around 140mm on average. However, this month also marks the start of the days getting longer, as you can get up to 12 hours of sunlight per day, with the sun setting just after 7pm.
The climate in Tenerife in April can still include some rain, with scattered rain showers being the norm, as 159mm of rain is expected to fall on average. The days will feel long, with 12 hours of sunlight, and the average temperature slowly rises to around 22°C. Evenings can still cool off quite a bit, so it is smart to pack some clothes to cover up with when the temperature drops to 13°C. The temperature of the sea stays stable at a warm 20°C, much to the delight of watersports enthusiasts.
MAY
May is when the dry seasons begins on Tenerife, reducing the chances of rain and bringing in a more stable and predictable climate. The temperatures will start to soar, with an average of 23°C, while the evenings may still require some warmer clothing. Summer winds from the Sahara may blow over Tenerife more regularly, causing drastic changes to the temperature and humidity. In May, you can indeed start enjoying the coastal regions, as the temperature of the sea stays at around 20°C.
JUNE
The weather in Tenerife in June will become noticeably warmer, as the temperatures begin to rise to around 25°C on average.

You will get an average of 14 hours a day of sunlight, as the sun sets around 9pm in the evenings.
As the months get hotter, the possibility of rain falls considerably, with July only having a chance of 90mm of rainfall in the month. Tenerife will have glorious weather at this time, and you can expect that the days will feel hot with an average of 27°C in temperatures. Those who want to spend the day dipping in and out of the sea will be pleased with its temperature at 22°C. UV levels will be at their highest around these months, so sun protection should not be neglected, especially as the days bring in more hours of sunlight.
AUGUST
The warm average temperatures in Tenerife will peak around August, as you can expect to spend much of your days basked in sunlight. You will have 14 hours of daylight to enjoy every day, with clear blue skies and temperatures of around 28°C. Even the evenings will be balmy so you can stash your sweaters to the far corner of your suitcase as al fresco dining will be at its most enjoyable. In August, the sea’s temperature will rise to 23°C, making it easy for you to spend most of your long days merely floating in the ocean. Sun protection should be a priority, as the UV rays are at their most potent at this time of the year.
SEPTEMBER
In September you are likely to encounter the hottest day of the year, as the Sahara winds will cause some dry and arid air to be swept onto Tenerife, causing spikes in the temperature. On average, you can expect it to be hot, with 27°C as your daily average temperatures. The sea will be extra warm as the summer peaks, with temperatures measuring at 24°C, as the summer slowly comes to a close and the days begin to feel shorter again with 12 hours of sunlight daily. Rainfall is usually at a minimum in September still, although the incoming winter can cause some unexpected showers at times.
OCTOBER
As the winter starts to roll in gradually, the average temperature in Tenerife drops down to 25°C in October. The evenings are still comfortable, although you may be better off with a sweater when dining outside. The temperature of the sea stays warm, however, almost matching the average air temperature with a whopping 24°C. Beach days are still possible, as the average rainfall remains low for the most part, with the occasional surprise shower.
Tenerife in November can bring occasional dust storms from Western Sahara, which can cause the weather to be erratic and unpredictable. More rainfall than usual can be expected, as your days of sunlight are cut down to 11 hours per day. This month’s temperature is usually measured at an average of 23°C, which is neither hot nor cold, and on sunny days can still serve as the perfect sunbathing temperature. The sea’s temperature slowly dips to around 22°C, as the nights are breezy and dominated by the cooling Atlantic trade winds.
DECEMBER
Even though December marks the height of winter for the rest of Europe, in Tenerife you will still be able to enjoy days outdoors with plenty of sunshine. Days are shorter with an average of 10 hours of sunlight, while rainfall can increase as Mount Teide attracts it from the north. Swimming and watersports are still possible, as the water’s temperature rarely falls below 21°C. The average daily temperature is around 20°C, while the evenings will see a drop, cooling things off on Tenerife. The sun can be expected to set early, at about 6:15pm during the end of the year.
MORE ABOUT THE WEATHER IN TENERIFE
There can be slight changes not only in landscape but also in the weather between the north and south of Tenerife. The majority of travelers choose the south because of its mild and dry conditions, which is perfect for the types of visitors who prefer to spend their days lazing around and relaxing by the beach. Those who are looking for hotter temperatures and a drier climate will favor resort towns such as Costa Adeje, Los Cristianos, and Las Americas, for their bright blue and warm waters, and the little chance of rain.
The famous Teide National Park has the tendency to be much colder than the rest of the island, especially in the coastal areas, due to the height of its mountains, with its peak at around 3,718 meters above sea level. Other stops in the north such as Santa Cruz and Puerto de la Cruz will have milder temperatures compared to the south, with a higher chance of rainfall. Los Gigantes, which is situated on the west coast of Tenerife will usually have very similar temperatures as the south, with a slight chance of occasional showers from time to time.
Tenerife is profoundly affected by the trade winds coming from the Atlantic, keeping the higher temperatures and drier winds from Western Sahara at bay, for the most part. This is especially true in the north, as the south is slightly blocked off from these winds due to Teide National Park and its higher peaks. Frost usually is only observed on the highest peaks of the National Park, as Tenerife’s climate can be most accurately described as mostly tropical.

Tenerife is an amazing island! I want to come here again and again.

It is neither too hot nor too cold on the island: in winter the air temperature here is about 18 °C, and in summer it is about 27 °C.

Weather in Tenerife by months (photo: paramonguino)
Tenerife is divided into two main climatic zones. The southern part has a more favorable climate. It is here that you can enjoy summer all year round, besides, there are a huge number of open free beaches. However, in the northern part of the island it is very cool, especially in winter. This part of the island is most suitable for sports recreation.
It is noteworthy that the relatively small area of Tenerife is divided into 28 climatic zones. Therefore, one should not be surprised that, for example, in one part of the island it can be pouring rain, and in another – a bright and scorching sun shines.
It is very pleasant to be in Tenerife in winter. But you won’t be able to ski or sled here, as there is almost never snow here.
And now let’s look at the temperature in Tenerife in more detail (by months).

Before planning a trip to the largest of the Canary Islands, Tenerife, it is perfectly wise to know what the weather is like there? What are the air and water temperatures by months at different times of the year? Let’s look into this issue.
The island of Tenerife is an unusual corner of wildlife and, by coincidence, one of the largest in the archipelago called the Canary Islands, or the abbreviated name “Canaries”, which is more familiar to us. The area of the island is almost two thousand square kilometers, and its heart and main attraction is the once active volcano Teide. This mountain has not shown any activity for many years, but the desert areas around it speak of how dangerous it was earlier.
What attracts tourists to Tenerife? Definitely, this is an unusual local climate “without extremes” – it is neither too hot nor too cold here. The reason for this is in the depths of the Atlantic washing the island: warm currents ensure that the average temperature in the autumn-winter period remains at the level of +19 … +20 C, and in the spring-summer – +25 … +26 C.
Despite the relatively small area, the climate in the northern and southern parts of the island is significantly different. To be precise, the difference lies in temperature fluctuations throughout the year – if in its south, tightly closed by mountains from cold winds, it is 7-9degrees, then in the southern part immersed in greenery it can reach 15-17 degrees.

When is the best time to go to Tenerife?
By and large, you can spend a week or two in Tenerife at any time of the year. The only question is how exactly you want to spend your vacation. When it comes to staying on local beaches, it is better to go south, at least in winter. Generally speaking, for tourists who prefer getting a beautiful tan to any other type of vacation, the doors of the island are open all year round – the water in the ocean does not cool below +21 C. And if for some it is quite cool, then for the most part it will be very acceptable.
Mount Teide
New Year in Tenerife – warm and almost rainless
December: the daily temperature background is determined by +21 C. The water temperature is + 18 C. The number of days with precipitation is similar to January – it is 12.
January: the average daily temperature of the first month of the year and the second of winter is +20 C, at night it is 5-6 degrees cooler. Precipitation falls within a third of the month. Those wishing to take sea baths should prepare for water, the temperature of which is +18 C, which is very invigorating.
February: The February weather differs only in the decrease in the number of rainy days, while the temperature background remains similar to January.
Spring is the best time to explore nature
A riot of colors and smells – such a very modest description characterizes the onset of spring on the island of Tenerife. The weather is in all respects just perfect, namely:
In March: the first month of spring brings long-awaited warming. Although the air temperature in March barely exceeds +20 C, it is characterized by a decrease in “wet” days and an increase in sunshine. Water in March retains the temperature of the previous two months.
In April: the temperature background of April is almost the same as in March, with the only difference that the daily temperature rises to +23 C – +24 C. The water is still cool.
In May: The average daily temperature in May is +24 C, water – +18 C. In May, there is a significant decrease in rainy days – no more than four.
Summer, oh summer…what is it like in the Canary Islands?

Summer is a great time to relax in Tenerife. The weather is pleasant, there is no sizzling heat, the water in the ocean is not cold, but it is also far from the state of “fresh milk”. How do the months of summer differ from each other, for all their homogeneity?
June: the first month of summer in Tenerife is marked by an increase in daytime temperatures up to +26 C, and at night – up to +20 C. All this creates very comfortable conditions for relaxing on the coast and in Tenerife hotels.
July – the equator of summer and the beginning of the massive swimming season. This is facilitated by a fairly high air temperature, reaching +28 C and water heated to +21 C. This is of course not fresh milk, but still relatively acceptable for most vacationers.
August: The average daytime temperature in August is close to the thirty-degree mark, the water temperature reaches +22 C. August in Tenerife is characterized by dry weather.
Autumn is a real velvet season

Although the climate in Tenerife is not extreme, there are still times of the year when you can combine all kinds of activities, such as swimming on the beaches and sightseeing.
September: the climatic conditions of the first autumn month are similar to those of August, but there is a slight decrease in air temperature by several degrees while maintaining the water temperature at +23 C.
October: In the second, the active swimming season ends. Rains begin, daytime air temperature drops to +26 degrees, in water – up to +21 C.
November: in the last month of autumn, the air temperature continues to gradually decrease to +24 C, and the water temperature to + 18 C. The average number of rainy days is 11-12.

Monthly weather in Tenerife
But there are nuances.
Firstly, despite the fact that Tenerife is located at the latitude of the Sahara (so it is warm in winter), there is no unbearable heat here in summer , thanks to the cold Canary Current. The temperature is comfortable – around 28 ° C, which is much nicer than the August 40 ° C somewhere in Rome or Madrid.
Secondly, Tenerife is an island of volcanic origin, and in its middle is the Teide volcano with a height of 3718 meters. The mountains do not allow the cool northeast trade winds to freely reach the south of the island. It is this circumstance that determines the difference in climate between the server and the south of the island.
And the third caveat – we are looking at the temperature on the coast, where people live. In the mountains at cloud level, the weather is completely different, but you most likely will not have to live there.
So, in the south of the island:
More sun
Warmer
Less waves and wind (except El Medano, on the contrary, there is a lot of wind and windsurfers)
Now to the numbers, let’s see how the weather (air temperature, water temperature and rainfall) differs in the three most touristic areas of Tenerife:
The temperature of the water in the ocean is the same along the entire coast of the island.
Precipitation varies greatly. In the south they are almost non-existent, while in the north it is very dry only from May to July. But, in fact, even 46 mm of precipitation in the north in November is still two times less than, for example, in the middle of summer in Moscow. Therefore, you should not be afraid of rain, there are more clouds in the north – this is true. But the vegetation is much prettier than in the desert south.
In general, come at any time of the year, the weather in Tenerife will not disappoint you. You can get to know the island even closer on an individual excursion (on average 180 € per group), and you can watch whales and dolphins in the Atlantic Ocean by taking part in a boat trip (from 50 € per person).
Air temperature and precipitation by months and years: Tenerife
During the day cloudy, in the afternoon rain showers. The highest temperature 26 °C. Total rainfall 5.5 mm. At night cloudy. The lowest temperature 22 °C. Total rainfall 0.1 mm.

Tenerife Weather in September – Is September a good month to visit?
Is Tenerife a good place to visit in September?
In Tenerife, and in the Canary Islands in general, the month of September is still regarded as a summer month, although officially the autumn season has begun. But not in the Canaries! Over here, summer lasts a little bit longer…
In our opinion, September is the perfect month to visit Tenerife, or any other Canary Island actually.
You wonder why?
Because the weather is still hot, the sea is as warm as it gets and the islands are a bit less crowded once the school year starts throughout Europe. So we are able to enjoy the beautiful September weather in Tenerife without having to deal with all the bad parts that come with a popular tourist destination.

Things to do in September
Events in September
But don’t think that September is a quiet or low month for tourism in Tenerife.
The island is a year-round destination and each season has its own advantages and disadvantages. For me, the best time to visit Tenerife is either in the last 2 weeks of September, either between December – February, but this is a personal opinion, as I don’t like too much heat, which is why I avoid the summer months.
Weather in Tenerife in September
Statistically, August is the hottest month in Tenerife.
But September doesn’t fall much behind it.
The weather in September in Tenerife is still as hot as it gets, rain is still an event unlikely to happen and the sea is at the perfect temperature for swimming.
The differences in climate between the north and the south start to be more visible again starting in September. If during the summer months both the north and the south are warm and pleasant, starting the second half of September the weather in Puerto de la Cruz starts to feel a bit cooler than the south. For us, it’s still perfect in September in Puerto de la Cruz, but for a sun worshiper, the south – Los Cristianos and Playa de Las Americas, should be a more suitable choice.
Tenerife South in September
September in Tenerife South is still regarded as a summer month.
The beaches are still the main attraction in Tenerife South in September and we are not surprised. Everyone wants to extend their summer as much as possible and in Tenerife that is possible. We would advise you to explore as many of the best beaches in Tenerife as possible, as the weather is still perfect for sunbathing.
Don’t miss a day at Playa la Pinta (Puerto Colon) or Playa las Vistas, our 2 favorite beaches in the south.
Temperatures in Tenerife in September
Temperatures in September in Tenerife are still around 30°C during the daytime and the nights continue to be pleasant with temperatures in the low 20s°C.
Average high temp at Tenerife South Airport: 27.9°C (82.2°F)
Average low temp at Tenerife South Airport: 21.1°C (70.0°F)
Average high temp in Santa Cruz de Tenerife: 28.1°C (82.6°F)
Average low temp in Santa Cruz de Tenerife: 21.7°C (71.1°F)
Although it may seem like the South of Tenerife is a bit cooler than Santa Cruz, the island’s capital, please keep in mind that the temperature is from the Airport station, where it’s a bit cooler and windier than on the southern coastline of Tenerife where the tourist resorts are located.
Record low & record high temperatures
The highest temperature ever recorded in Tenerife in September (at Tenerife South Airport station) was 41.8°C and the lowest was 16.5°C.
Rainfall
September is pretty much a dry month, as it hardly ever rains, especially in Tenerife South.
The chances of rain start to increase considerably towards the end of the month, mostly in the north of the island. Chances of rain are about 10% in the south towards the end of September and around 27% in the north. So if you’re going to one of the southern resorts in Tenerife, you don’t have to worry about the rain yet.
Even in the north, September is a good month for visiting, as the rain period doesn’t last for long and it’s nothing like the usual storms that happen in November in Tenerife.
Sunshine hours
Tenerife gets an average of 8 hours/day of sunshine in September. So although the weather is still hot and perfect for sunbathing, the sunshine hours are considerably reduced compared to August, when we had around 10 h of sunshine per day.
Sea temperature
The average sea temperature in September in Playa de las Americas: is 23.7°C / 74.7°F.
This means that September is pretty much an ideal month for swimming in Tenerife. Take advantage of the gorgeous weather and hit the beaches!
Things to do in September
September is a month full of possibilities in Tenerife: from sunbathing, to hiking, cycling and practicing water sports, everything is at its best.
Go to Punta de Teno
The lighthouse at Punta de Teno on the west coast of Tenerife
From Punta de Teno you get one of the best views in Tenerife. While in winter the weather can be sometimes tricky, as it can rain fairly often and the wind usually blows hard, in September you still have good chances to arrive there on a day with sunny weather, just perfect for taking in the view of the Los Gigantes cliffs, as seen from the other end of the island.
Go and see the authentic Canarian architecture in La Orotava
Casa de los Balcones in La Orotava, Tenerife
The weather in La Orotava can be pretty crappy in winter. This is why we recommend you to visit either during the summer months or in September.
I’ve never managed to visit La Orotava on a dry day. I’m not even wishing for a sunny day, just a day when it’s not pouring horizontal rain. It’s true that we’ve usually been there in winter, so this is why we advise you to go in September if possible. Just check the forecast or one of the online webcams to see how the weather is.
La Orotava is a gorgeous town and you shouldn’t miss a visit to the famous Casa de los Balcones.
Events in September
Summer Carnival in Puerto de la Cruz: 25 August – 11 September 2022
Yes, the summer carnival in Puerto de la Cruz takes place in September.
It’s a great event and a chance to dance and have fun while on holiday. It lasts for 4 days over a weekend and you can listen to local bands and mix in with the other tourists and locals as well.
Puerto de la Cruz Oktoberfest
Oktoberfest is yet another event in Puerto de la Cruz celebrated in September. It usually takes place in the first weekend of September in Plaza de Europa.
This is a festival with great tradition in Tenerife, celebrated in Puerto de la Cruz since 1973.
FAQ about Tenerife in September
Is Tenerife warm in September?

The entire month of September is still very warm in the south of Tenerife, even hotter than the summers in many other European countries.

Current satellite and rain images for Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spain
The location marker is placed on Santa Cruz de Tenerife. [More]
The real-time satellite image combines visible light during daytime with infrared radiation during nighttime. At night, the image is not dark as infrared radiation can detect temperature differences. Unfortunately, low clouds and fog are difficult to distinguish from ground temperatures and thus can be almost invisible during the night. Meteosat satellite images for Europe are updated in real-time every 5 minutes. GOES-16/GOES-17 (North & South America) and Himawari (Asia) images update every 10 minutes.
Precipitation is estimated from radar and satellites. At night precipitation estimates from satellites are less accurate than during daytime. Orange crosses mark places where lightning was detected (over Europe).

Actual nearshore temperatures may vary by several degrees from the indicated values. This is noticeable after heavy rain or after prolonged periods of strong winds. Some downstream winds cause cold, deep waters to replace surface waters that have been warmed by the sun.
To develop a forecast, we use our own mathematical model, which takes into account the current change in water temperature, historical data and the main weather trends, wind strength and direction, air temperature in each specific region. We also take into account data for other resorts in Spain.

Tenerife: weather forecast
The weather forecast is shown in local time in Tenerife
Tenerife – the largest island of Spain can boast of really great weather and practically all year round. The mild climate means that the place is often visited every season of the year, especially since the temperature fluctuations are not too great here. Tenerife is often called the island of eternal spring and there is a lot of truth in it. The sun shines here for over 300 days a year, and thermometers show on average over 20 degrees, virtually every day.
Climate of Tenerife
Tenerife is influenced by the subtropical climate. However, it is not uniform throughout the island. Its mountainous shape makes dry and desert climate predominate on the waterfront, while in the middle it turns more towards the Mediterranean.
Weather in Tenerife: January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December. Forecast.
In addition, Tenerife is clearly divided in terms of weather and climatic conditions into the northern, wetter and greener part as well as the dry and warmer south. Temperatures in these two parts of the island can be noticeably different. And when, for example, La Laguna is almost 20 degrees, then in Playa de las Americas thermometers can show over 30 degrees.
Weather differences can be clearly seen, for example, in to the surrounding vegetation.
In the north it is lush and green due to moisture, greater rainfall and fog phenomena. However, in the south, where it rains very rarely, only natural desert plants can be seen in the natural landscape – succulents, cacti and aloe plantations. However, this does not mean that in one or the other part of Tenerife you cannot spend a great holiday.
However, when checking the weather on the island, it is worth considering specific locations, because sometimes it can happen that 10-20 kilometers from an area under heavy rainfall there will be no rain at all!
However, when it comes to the higher parts of the mountains, which are also found in Tenerife, you need to be aware that they have typical weather for such altitudes. The higher it is, the more precipitation you can expect, it gets colder, and the temperature differences between mountain areas and the beach are at least 10 degrees. In summer, you can go hiking in the mountains of Tenerife, use as a springboard or escape from the heat. In winter, however, snow can occur on the highest peaks. That is why it is worth taking warmer clothes throughout the year for mountain trekking around the island.
What influences the weather in Tenerife?
Not everyone knows that Tenerife is on the same latitude as Sahara and Florida. In addition, it is an oceanic island located on one of the largest water reservoirs in the world. All this has a decisive impact on the local climate and the weather we find on the spot.
In addition, the Atlantic Ocean works like a thermal insulator, which gives off its heat in winter and heats the island. In the summer, on the other hand, cools the local weather conditions. To this must mention the sea currents surrounding Tenerife – warm Golfstrom and cold Canary. Their mutual influence is shaping the temperature of the local bathing beaches, where the water has an average temperature of 19 to 24 degrees.
The close presence of the African continent is also significant – it plays the role of a kind of radiator from above, from which warm air masses fly over Tenerife. Bringing a weather phenomenon called kalima. In addition to raising the temperature above the island, kalima carries sand particles that look like clouds. This phenomenon occurs most often from November to April, but it also happens in the summer. After all, it has only a little over 100 kilometers to cover from Africa.
The last factor that affects the weather in Tenerife are the winds blowing here. They can either bring cooling and moisture if they blow from the north. They can also increase the value on thermometers even more if it is southern winds. It blows on the island for over 260 days a year, which enthusiasts of various water sports enjoy.
Air temperatures in Tenerife
As we have already mentioned, air temperatures in Tenerife can vary from town to town. However, when it comes to average values for the whole island, the case is as follows. The warmest months of the year are June, July and August, when temperatures reach 28-29 degrees. However, such values are not felt too much due to the winds blowing here. In September it is still sunny and warm, because the thermometers show 27 degrees. The evenings are pleasant because the temperature is around 20 degrees. Such weather persists around October and November. It is only in December that the temperatures drop slightly to 24 degrees, while the nights are cooler (15 degrees), so you should pack something warmer in your luggage. From February and March, the thermometers are slowly starting to show increasing values (25 degrees), which in April and May are pleasant 26 degrees. Evenings and nights get warmer then (18-19 degrees).
Water temperature in Tenerife
Regarding the ocean water temperature, despite not very large fluctuations, it changes slightly over the year. The warmest period is of course the time from July to November. Then the average ocean temperature in Tenerife reaches 22-23 degrees. It may not be the warmest bathing water, but we must be aware that such a large reservoir does not get hot, like the closed Mediterranean Sea. The cooling of the ocean to 19 degrees comes in December, and then continues until April. From May, the water slowly begins to warm up again.
Spring weather in Tenerife
Spring in Tenerife is a time of warm but not hot weather. In the south of the island, temperatures range from 20 degrees in March to 24 degrees in May. The evenings are also pleasantly warm. It’s the perfect time to explore, relax with the family and enjoy all the attractions on the island. The temperature in the ocean is not encouraging yet, but there will definitely be daredevils who will also bathe. It is also a good time for water sports enthusiasts, because in Tenerife there are perfect wind conditions. Rather there is no chance for rain.
As for spring in the north of Tenerife, it is a bit cooler than in the south. Temperatures in March can reach as low as 15 degrees. However, the good news is that it gets warmer every day. Thermometers show 18 degrees in April and over 22 degrees in May. Evenings and nights can be cool, while the number of sunny hours increases to 12 in May. However, the presence of the Teide massif makes the sun disappear faster behind the mountain, making the sun a little less. It’s better for plants, because the sun doesn’t burn them for so long and, in the spring in the north, rains are frequent.
Long-term weather in Tenerife: Spring, summer, autumn, winter. Water and air temperature.
Summer weather in Tenerife
Summer in Tenerife is very sunny but not overly hot, because you can feel the influence of the cooling ocean. It is not stuffy, and by the way it is not raining at all during the summer months.
In the south of the island in summer there are the highest temperatures reaching up to 30 degrees. The nights are pleasantly warm, and the number of sunny hours increases up to 14 per day. The days are longer and the water in the ocean heats up to 23-24 degrees. It’s a good time to relax on the beach. In the south there is no chance of rain, and in the coastal belt you will not even see clouds (do not confuse it with Kalima).
On the other hand, the weather is good in the north of Tenerife, but temperatures are slightly lower. They reach a maximum of 28-29 degrees, and the number of sunny hours reaches 13. Even in the ocean water is a little cooler because it reaches 22-23 degrees. Tenerife North is a good place for people who prefer a slightly cooler summer edition. The sky is also cloudy here, which gives plants relief. However, when it comes to wind, it is stronger here than in the south of the island.
Tenerife weather in autumn
The autumn in Tenerife is very similar to the local spring. Temperatures drop slightly and it is more pleasant, sometimes rainfall can happen.
In the south of Tenerife, temperatures still reach 27-28 degrees, even in the evenings it is still warm (23-24 degrees). The water in the ocean keeps its temperature (23-24 degrees), while the number of sunny hours decreases (to 9-10). From November, there may be a small rainfall or episodically low rainfall.
Whereas the north of the island is slightly cooler. The temperatures in autumn reach 24-25 degrees, and at night they only drop slightly. There are more rainy days and the number of sunny hours is 9-10 a day. The sky is more cloudy and the number of tourists is also slightly reduced. Some of them run away in search of the sun to the south. As for the ocean water temperature, it is still warmed to these 23 degrees.
Winter weather in Tenerife
The weather in winter in Tenerife is excellent: it rains a little more, but it is still relatively low rainfall and the wind blows harder. It’s a good time to travel around the island.
The south of Tenerife keeps temperatures at 20-22 degrees, only at night it can be a little cooler (about 18 degrees). Sometimes there are rainfall, but it also blows harder. The number of sunny hours drops to 9 during the day and the ocean cools down to 19 degrees.
As for the northern part of the island, the daytime temperatures also stay at a decent level (18-21 degrees). In the evenings and nights are cooler, because thermometers can show 15-16 degrees. Winter is the time when it rains the most in this part of Tenerife, compared to the whole year. The temperature in the ocean drops to 19 degrees, and in addition to rain, apart from rain, strong wind bothers. The number of sunny hours drops to nine.
For people who want to plan their holidays in Tenerife on a specific date, we also present a weather picture broken down by month.
January in Tenerife – weather
This is one of the least favorable months for tourism, even though temperatures are moderate at the time. Thermometers show 17 to 21 degrees, depending on which part of the island you are in. At night the temperature drops to 15 or even 10 degrees Celsius. Usually 4 to 7 days is rainy throughout the month. Swimming in the ocean is more for those who tolerate cold.
February in Tenerife – weather
February is a month very similar to January. The weather is good because the thermometers show 18-20 degrees, only at night it can be much cooler. The number of rainy days in a month can be extended from 4 to 9. In contrast, sunny hours are still not too many (only 6 a day). The ocean temperature doesn’t rise either.
March in Tenerife – weather
In March, the weather in Tenerife is slowly beginning to head towards good: temperatures fluctuate around 18-21 degrees, and at night it is a bit warmer than in February (16-19 degrees). The water in the ocean is still insensitive to slow warming and thermometers show 19 degrees. Rainy days should not be more than 8 throughout the month. Instead, the number of sunny hours increases to 7 per day.
April in Tenerife – weather
In April, Tenerife is getting noticeably warmer. Rainy days are fewer (about 6 throughout the month), while the temperature can rise from 19 to even 23 degrees during the day. In the evenings it can be cold sometimes, and sometimes it is quite pleasant. It is still not enough to heat the ocean water a little. On the other hand, in April the number of sunny hours per day increases to 8 on the island.
May in Tenerife – weather
In May in Tenerife we can feel like summer in Europe. Temperatures can reach as high as 25-26 degrees, and evenings are definitely pleasant. Precipitation is rare – up to 3 days throughout the month. And finally, the water temperature in the ocean increases by a degree or two and reaches 20-21.
June in Tenerife – weather
Since June, Tenerife has really summer, holiday weather. Temperatures do not fall below 20 degrees, and most often reach 26-27 degrees. The number of sunny hours reaches 9 per day. Rainy days are almost gone, or there are literally single days. However, the water in the ocean is almost perfectly heated for bathing.
July in Tenerife – weather
July in Tenerife is the high season. Thermometers show 28 to 30 degrees Celsius, and at night they do not fall too much. In the south it is not raining, while in the north there may be episodes of showers. The ocean temperature invites you to swim, while the number of sunny hours is still high.
August in Tenerife – weather
August in Tenerife is practically no different from July, only the temperature during the day is slightly higher, just like the one in the ocean. It’s a good time to come for all beach fans. There is no rainfall, days are long but not too hot. In case of emergency, you can always escape to the slightly cooler north or mountains, or simply enter the ocean to cool down.
September in Tenerife – weather
In September, Tenerife is still summer. It’s warm, but not hot. Temperatures reach 27 degrees and there is no reason to worry about heavy rains. The ocean is still warm and the number of sunny hours is 8 per day. In places where there are no clouds, it is worth remembering a cream with a filter, because the sun here shines twice as hard.
October in Tenerife – weather
October weather is very similar to that of September. It is warm and pleasant – temperatures reach 26 degrees, and at night it is only 5 degrees less. Cloudy days can happen, but you will not find rain because it rains no more than three times a month. The water in the ocean is still 23 degrees, while the number of sunny hours is reduced to seven per day.
November in Tenerife – weather
There is slightly less sunshine in Tenerife in November. Rainy days can happen, but sooner in the north than in the south. Mornings can be cloudy and thermometers show 24-26 degrees during the day. The evenings can be cooler (19 degrees). Swimming in the ocean is still possible, as the water temperature is around 22 degrees.
December in Tenerife – weather
December in Tenerife is the second of those slightly colder months, looking at the annual level. However, daytime temperatures still reach 20-24 degrees here. Nights can be cool (15 degrees), while the number of sunny hours drops to 6 per day. The ocean also cools down to 19 degrees. In December it rains about 5 days, there may also be more clouds obscuring the sun.

Understanding the Weather on Tenerife
I try to avoid mentioning the weather on Tenerife where possible as it’s a topic that has been done to death. But it is understandably important and yet still many people get it completely wrong. Subsequently the weather on Tenerife is as misrepresented as the populist image that Tenerife is one big dry rock that is like a Britain in the sun circa 1987 where Rick Astley adds the soundtrack and the whiff of dated pub grub like chilli con carne provides the aromas.
Forget weather forecasts that give one, or even two forecasts for Tenerife and forget the tired old saying the south is sunny and dry, the north is cloudy and wet; it’s just not as simple as that.
Here are 10 tips to understanding the weather on Tenerife starting with the big misconception.
Puerto de la Cruz in December, Los Cristianos in March
The South is Sunny, the North is Cloudy The south is sunnier, drier and warmer than the north, that’s a fact. But it’s all relative. Tour operators and people who don’t know the north of Tenerife will state with confidence that it’s cloudy, cool and wet. Consider these other facts. The bulk of settlers, noblemen and artists chose the north of Tenerife to live in following the conquest in 1496. When Victorians were sent to a temperate climate for the benefit of their health, they were sent to the north of Tenerife. Temperatures in the depths of winter don’t normally drop much below 20C (68F) and it stays in the upper 20s to low 30s in summer. The north of Tenerife can be cloudy and it can rain in winter months but it isn’t the default setting.
There are not, like one half-wit on a travel forum stated, only 3 days sunshine a year in Puerto de la Cruz.
What Do temperatures in Celsius Actually Mean? I get the impression from various online discussions that some people don’t understand Celsius so when the weather forecast for Tenerife says it’s going to be 20C or 30C, it doesn’t mean a great deal. 20c is 68F and generally speaking the ‘coolest’ daytime temperature in Tenerife’s coldest winter months (Mid January to end of February). In Palma Majorca at the same time it is 11C and in Malaga it is 12C. 30C is a whopping 86F. You might think that sounds great but lie in it for any length of time and you’ll be charcoaled. Around 25C (77F) is perfect and that is what all of Tenerife’s coasts experience for much of the year.
Rain in Tenerife Yes it does rain on Tenerife, even in the south but not much and usually not for long. In the north, where there is more rain, it often falls in winter, at night and doesn’t last long. Short, very heavy downpours are common during seasonal changes (i. e. summer to winter and winter to spring). Most rainfall will happen in the hills.
Above the Clouds it’s Sunny Most of the Time
The Sun Shines Every Day on Tenerife Actually that one’s not far wrong – but it isn’t always in the same place or all day. Blue skies are almost a given in Las Cañadas del Teide but everywhere else will experience their share of cloudy days. Even on a cloudy day on Tenerife, the sun can often break through at some point.
Extremes of Weather on Tenerife are Caused by Climactic Change There have been a couple of hairy storms in recent years but whether they have been caused by climactic change who can say. What is certain is that they are not a new weather phenomena. Tenerife has experienced times of extreme weather in its history. But thankfully they don’t occur too often.
What Does Having Many Micro Climates Mean? It means that the weather can be different from the coast to the hills to the mountains; from one valley to the next and on north, east, south and west coasts. It is why when anyone says Tenerife is an island of contrasts it is not a cliché. It is also why any weather website with an umbrella catch all forecast is not to be trusted. Use AEMET, the Spanish Meteorological Office or our interpretation of their predictions on Walking Tenerife for a forecast that breaks down different areas of Tenerife.
The La Orotava Valley in February
Weather Alerts Think of these as common sense warnings. Yellow means low risk and you’ll hardly notice anything. Orange means some serious weather coming. Red means stay inside, batten down the hatches and pray. These are issued in relation to wind, rain, heat and sea conditions. The most misunderstood alert is for sea conditions. Often when there’s an alert for ‘costas’ it can be glorious weather on-land.
Sea Temperatures Whether the sea is warm enough to swim in all year depends on individual neshness level (i.e. what you consider too cold). In truth sea temperatures vary little between summer and winter, but the temperatures once you get out do which can make it seem colder. For me, It’s pleasant to swim in at any time.
Reliable Sources for Information about Current Weather Conditions Be wary of anyone in one part of Tenerife telling you what the weather is like in other parts – there can be all sorts of motivations for talking down weather in other areas of the island, so only ever believe what a person in situ says. When we summarise the weather on our Walking Tenerife website we base it on what we have either experienced ourselves, what friends in other areas tell us and what people say online about the places they live or are visiting. Even webcams can’t be trusted but that’s another blog.
Most Important of All Tenerife has been known for having a good, if not almost perfect, climate for centuries. You might get unlucky and experience a cold or wet spell in a 12 month period (rare during summer months). But most of the time the weather ranges from warm to hot. Enough said.
And finally, here’s an eleventh tip thrown in as a bonus. Despite what even some people who live on Tenerife seem to believe, when the weather in the south is bad, it doesn’t mean the weather in the north is worse – that’s just silly.

Forecast Reka-Luka Jani – Nuria Brancaccio (September 13), bets and odds
On September 13, 2022 at 12:00 Moscow time, a WTA championship match will take place, in which Reka Luka Yani, and Nuria Brancaccio will face in this fight.
br>
The referee of the tennis match Reka-Luka Jani – Nuria Brancaccio must signal the start of the game at 12:00 Moscow time. Due to the fact that the meeting is scheduled for September 13, 2022, there is very little time left for preparation, so the opponents need to step up their training. Reka-Luka Jani and Nuria Brancaccio have been playing professional tennis for more than ten years, so they have met six times in various tournaments, and if Reka-Luka Jani has four victories, Nuria Brancaccio can only boast of two victories.
River Luca Yani – Nuria Brancaccio. WHO IS THE FAVORITE OF THE MATCH?
Next week will be the next stage of the Grand Slam tournament, in which Reka Luka Yani and Nuria Brancaccio will meet on September 13, 2022. The start of the fight is scheduled for 12:00 Moscow time. Reka-Luka Jani is the obvious leader in this confrontation, as there were eight head-to-head meetings earlier, and they managed to win seven times, and in five cases the victories were early.
River Luka Jani
This season Reka-Luka Jani already has a large number of matches played, which clearly indicates that the twelfth racket of the world is in good shape, as there was an opportunity to play it. Of course, despite the excellent results in previous tournaments, you should not pay special attention to them, because at those Challengers there were opponents of a completely different level, with whom it was easy to take early victories. And since this tournament is much more prestigious and the best rackets of the world have gathered here, it is not so easy to prove yourself. Reka-Luka Jani can be glad that he managed to overcome four stages already, but in the last meeting there was a very difficult game, as the first set was completely failed, so we had to play much more carefully. Reka-Luka Jani still has difficulty adapting to the court, as previously almost all the matches played were held on a different surface.
In principle, the start of this season can be considered quite good, because even though Karolina Muchova in six games played has only three wins, all three defeats were exclusively from the representatives of the TOP-20 of the world tennis rating. At the same time, a struggle was imposed on all three opponents, which allowed them to win one set each. The main specialization is hardcover, but in the halls, Karolina Muchova does not play often, only occasionally applying for such tournaments. In the draws, Karolina Muchova keeps the pace of the game-high and also attacks deeply from forehand. In addition, despite the fact that now is only the beginning of the season, Donna Vekic shows very little marriage in the exchange of blows. Nuria Brancaccio is still in 112th place in the tennis rankings, but this season there is every chance to break into the top hundred and avoid qualifications at prestigious tournaments.
Prediction for the match
For a long time, Reka-Luka Jani and Nuria Brancaccio could not cross rackets to determine who is the best athlete today. For a long time in the world of tennis there has been an opinion that these athletes are now the best, but before this tournament the paths of tennis players did not intersect, so it was not easy to say which of them deserved the title of the best athlete on the tennis Olympus. Tennis fans, as well as world experts and forecasters, among whom there are employees of our site, believe that the result of this meeting will allow answering many questions. The media also do not stop actively discussing this match, offering not only to watch this confrontation online, but also actively sharing their predictions. In the light of such events, we also decided to offer tennis fans predictions for the central match of the tournament, in which Reka-Luka Jani and Nuria Brancaccio will meet. This will be a confrontation between worthy opponents, as tennis players are significantly superior to their counterparts in both physical and psychological preparation. Talks are going around whether one of the opponents will be able to win with little blood, or whether the fans are in for a tense confrontation, the winner of which will be determined by the decisive set. The advantage of the decisive set is that the intrigue is maintained until the end, and only the decisive draw will be able to put an end to this confrontation, determining the winner of the match. And the predictions from our experts will allow you to watch this match with even greater interest, as bettors will be able to make a variety of bets, thereby increasing the chances of winning.
Reka-Luka Jani doesn’t have a very strong serve, but just tries to send the ball as deep as possible into the opponent’s half of the court. But, since Reka-Luka, Jani loves and knows how to attack with good shots, so he can create danger, both on the first and on the second serve. Having vast experience in tennis, Reka-Luka Yani knows how to read the game well and always predicts the direction of the blow, even if the opponent is distinguished by the variability of blows. So, getting an ace against such a tennis legend as Reka Luka Yani is not very easy. The beginning of his career was just on grass courts, so even though this season there have not yet been matches on this surface, but Reka-Luka Yani knows how to play very well on it. The weak point is endurance, because at this age it’s not easy to play matches so often, but so far in past fights you haven’t had to get involved in a protracted game.
Nuria Brancaccio is just starting his performances this season, so only four matches have been played so far, of which two have been won and two ended in defeat. It is worth noting that both defeats were in matches against opponents who act in a similar style, acting on the court in a very aggressive manner. While Nuria Brancaccio plays only in this way, as much as the opponent allows, so if there is too much aggressive pressure, then Nuria Brancaccio starts to make mistakes and the defensive game is destroyed. As for this court coverage, Nuria Brancaccio does not perform well on it, since there have been no achievements in her entire career, except that two years ago at the same tournament she managed to reach the quarterfinals, but then too light opponents came across the grid. There were only two days to prepare for this match, and since a lot of energy and emotions were spent in the last game, it is unlikely that Nuria Brancaccio will be able to show his best tennis now.
Today match Reka-Luka Jani – Nuria Brancaccio Forecasts from BC “BaltBet”
Excellent game of athletes in the previous rounds of the tournament could not go unnoticed by our experienced analysts. Therefore, as soon as the bookmakers offered a line for the match in which Reka Luca Yani and Nuria Brancaccio will meet, the analysts of our portal immediately began to look for interesting bets on this match. Considering the personal meetings of the athletes, we noticed that the struggle between them is always quite tight, none of the rivals has a visible advantage. In addition, Reka-Luka Yani and Nuria Brancaccio play aggressive tennis, trying to finish rallies in two or three strokes, which allows them to save strength to protect points on their serve. To make high-quality predictions, our experts try to study as much information as possible regarding the performance of athletes in the tournament. The history of performances of today’s rivals here is quite bright. Both Reka Luka Yani and Nuria Brancaccio have reached the final rounds of the tournament on multiple occasions. This suggests that the coverage of the tournament allows them to play tennis that is comfortable for them, therefore, it can be assumed that this year the opponents will make every effort to break through the tournament grid as far as possible, which means that the match must there will be wrestling and interesting combinations that will not leave indifferent any fan of this sport.
Judging by the number of finals and titles that Reka-Luka Jani has to his credit in his career, the question of a favorite in the tennis match between Reka-Luka Jani and Nuria Brancaccio is out of the question. Our analysts and bookmaker analysts do not see an opportunity that will allow an outsider to win this match. Nuria Brancaccio, in principle, is not an outsider, judging by the rating, but Reka-Luka Yani are superior in all respects to their rival. The only thing in which there are some doubts is whether the favorite of the match will be able to break the odds declared by the bookmakers. In principle, judging by personal meetings, here the handicap is set correctly. In the lion’s share of matches between tennis players, the handicap either broke through the favorite back to back, or did not break through. So, our analysts decided not to guess, but simply skip the handicap bet in this match, since it would be wrong to predict bets neither for nor against the handicap. But the total number of games offered by the bookmakers aroused our interest. Based on the current form of the athletes, we concluded that it is unlikely that Nuria Brancaccio will be able to win a set against an opponent, so we expect an easy victory for the favorite here. And this means that the bookmakers have overestimated the total number of games by 1-2 games. We decided to take advantage of this and recommend bettors to bet on total under, especially since Reka-Luka Jani feels much more comfortable on this type of surface than the opponent.
TODAY MATCH Reka Luka Jani – Nuria Brancaccio. PREDICTION FROM EXPERTS
For the match, which will meet Reka-Luka Jani and Nuria Brancaccio bookmakers have offered a rather interesting line. Recall that bookmakers draw up a line for tennis matches based on the rating and current form of athletes. Judging by the way the opponents started the season, they are ready to demonstrate high results in all the tournaments they take part in. Therefore, our analysts believe that the line set by the bookmakers is correct. However, this did not prevent us from carefully analyzing the possibility of victory for one and the other athlete in this match, and offer our predictions for this confrontation. We know that now in tennis there is a serious struggle for places in the rankings. The situation is such that a number of tennis players have excellent chances to improve their positions in the rankings by taking a higher place. To do this, you need to show consistently high results in all major tournaments. And this tournament is no exception. Now the most important stages are starting, and the further the opponents go through the tournament bracket, the more rating points they will get for participating in the tournament. Therefore, now all athletes will act at the limit of their capabilities, actively playing not only on their serve, but also clinging to every point on the opponent’s serve. Thanks to this, we can guarantee that Reka Luka Jani and Nuria Brancaccio will play a spectacular and active match, in which they will delight the audience with bright attacking tennis, with many interesting combinations.

Excellent location and easily accessed, big car park
Very clean with plenty of staff in all areas. the food was very good. And the dinning room was very well organised giving excellent and efficient service.
The kiddies gift bag was a lovely touch upon arrival and the play park and pool were very good.
Alcoholic Drinks were a fair price
More a suggestion than a moan, but they could have published the entertainment more we did not know what was going on and where perhaps a notice board or something (unless we didn’t just see it)
We expected more for the kiddies as this was one of the main reasons for choosing this Hotel perhaps we were too early in the season but there was nothing about it being seasonal in the hotel write up.
Having to pay for water at dinner it soon added up over the time €1.60 for a small bottle cost us €32 for our stay.

A hotel with a varied age-range of guests.
A hotel with a varied age-range of guests. Mainly > 60 and all-inclusive, who sit around the pool all day. And some young families, who like the location and the games the hotel put on for the kids. For me, I like hiking, and the location is excellent.

Location was good, staff was friendly, room spacious and clean and the view from the room fabulous. Good buffet breakfast. Possibility for an early breakfast when leaving was great.
A bit expensive for what you get. Little refurbishment here and there would be necessary. All the discussion from the corridor could be heard in the room, which was a bit annoying – luckily there was not much of that. The breakfast room was really noisy, as it is one large space.

Cons
TRYP Tenerife is a mid-range, family-friendly vacation hotel that’s a five-minute walk from the beach. It offers half-board and all-inclusive meal packages, but only one main restaurant (plus two bars) that gets mixed reviews. This 15-story tower hotel features 364 rooms, but only the higher-category units (which also happen to be on the higher floors) have air-conditioning, and fans cost extra to rent. The hotel offers lots of activities for kids and adults alike, including mini-golf, ping-pong, an animation team, and evening entertainment. There are a large outdoor pool, a kids’ pool, a fitness center, and a kids’ club with a climbing wall. Travelers who prefer to stay somewhere with self-catering facilities may want to consider the similarly priced Paloma Beach Apartments, though they are a bit further from the city center and the beach.

Family-friendly tower hotel with big bright lobby and regular entertainment options
TRYP Tenerife is a family-friendly hotel set in a 15-story gray-stone tower with a large parking lot in front and a pool and activities area out back. The entryway is partially covered by an awning and there are a few padded wicker sofas and coffee tables out front with ashtrays for smoking (interiors are smoke-free). The lobby is bright and open, with a white shelving structure adorned with multiple varieties of bonsai trees. There are a few brown faux-leather benches for seating, plus a larger seating area in the back of the lobby with tables and chairs where evening entertainment takes place in cooler winter months (otherwise it’s held outdoors on a stage near the pool).
TRYP attracts a lot of families as well as some older couples, and gets a lot of Brits, Italians, Belgians, and Germans. Some guests stay for months on end, and long-term discounts are available. Note that the property is not wheelchair accessible, with no alter-abled rooms or ramps.

Location
On the main road into Los Cristianos, a five-minute walk from the beach and boardwalk
TRYP Tenerife is located right on Avenida Juan Carlos I (the main road into Los Cristianos), a five-minute walk to the boardwalk and the beach. Playa de la Americas is a five- to 10-minute drive or a 20-minute walk from the hotel, and offers theme parks, shopping, and tons of evening entertainment options ranging from night clubs to comedy shows. Attractions farther afield include Loro Parque, with dolphins and other marine life as well as a smattering of mammals (including red pandas) — reaching the park takes just over an hour. It takes around the same amount of time to get to one of Tenerife’s most popular attractions: Mount Teide. This beautiful volcano at the center of the island has a cable car, an astronomical observatory, and high-altitude hiking opportunities. Masca, the base for trekking through the popular Masca Valley, is a 45-minute drive from the hotel. The airport is about 15 minutes away by car or around 25 minutes away by bus (lines 343 or 711).

Inside, there’s a lower-level recreation area with arcade games, mini-foosball, air hockey, and a couple of coin-operated massage chairs, plus a mini-market selling snacks and souvenirs. A tiny gym with modern equipment including a single cross-training machine and lots of cardio equipment sits off to one side.

The truth about Arona in the south of Tenerife: weather, beaches, places
The municipality of Arona, with the capital of the same name, is located in the southern part of Tenerife and is one of the most important tourist areas. Arona is part of the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife and is divided into the following coastal areas: Playa de Las Américas, Los Cristianos, Costa del Silencio and Las Galletas. The city of Arona is located in the central, agricultural part of the municipality and is the third largest and fifth most populated city in Tenerife.
Most of the tourists who come here from all over Europe, first of all, seek to get into the gentle sea embrace of warm waters and soak up the beautiful beaches of the south of Tenerife. Favorable climate with an average temperature of 20-25°C, contributes to excellent recreation. Arona is also famous for its health, recreational and medical features.
For the first time, Arona is mentioned in historical documents from the time of the conquest of the island by Spain, as a modest fishing village. By the 18th century, the city had changed, becoming one of the largest and most populous centers of Tenerife.
Playa de Las Américas offers tourists a sunny climate, gentle sea and year-round surfing.
Los Cristianos has preserved its fishing and marine lifestyle to this day. Tourists coming here will see a picturesque view of the city, nestled between the Chayofita and Guaza mountain ranges.
Costa del Silencio fully lives up to its name “Coast of Peace” – there are beautiful beaches, and the surrounding atmosphere is imbued with a kind of impressiveness and peace. There are also many activities for snorkellers, scuba divers and professional divers.
Las Galletas is a small fishing village steeped in the spirit of ancient sailors and maritime traditions. There is a large yacht marina here.
The capital of the municipality is located in the mountains, where tourism is less prosperous and agriculture is more developed. Separate parts of Arona are an archaeological and ethnographic park protected by the state. Basically it is the “old town”, which consists of narrow streets, old houses, the city hall, Cristo Square, the chapel and the church of San Antonio Abad. The main cultivation of crops is concentrated in the fertile San Lorenzo Valley. The main products, which are also exported outside the municipality, are bananas, tomatoes, potatoes, peppers. Arona is also famous for its flowers.
Arona ignites the passion for travelers in Tenerife and stimulates the imagination.
The simplest solution for those who appreciate nature, culture, traditions, beaches and culinary pleasures. A journey full of incomparable discoveries awaits you, which remain in the memory of tourists for many years.
Arona is a suitable destination for those who are not limited in time, because it takes time to feel all the charm of a small paradise in the south of Tenerife.
The local villages and beaches are so beautiful that they seem to be the embodiment of the happiest dreams. The magnificent landscapes are breathtaking, each guest has enough sunlight from the Canary Islands, history lovers are delighted with their finds, passionate about folklore, nature and the national roots of these places, rejoice in success in their searches … And best of all, it is only two and a half to the capitals on the mainland hours of travel.
Beautiful and close land awakens indescribable emotions in tourists coming here, which remain in their souls forever. The beaches of Los Cristianos, Las Americas, Las Gaietas (Costa del Silencio) and La Arona, the quietest and most peaceful of all, make Arona one of the areas of attraction for tourists from all over the world.
TOURISM FOR ALL
The municipality of Arona is cosmopolitan and accessible. Artificial barriers have ceased to exist here for many years. More than 15 km of luxurious sea beaches and exotic bays with rocks of volcanic origin, an average temperature of around 25 degrees, many hotel complexes, as well as exceptional conditions for commerce. A whole universe in a separate territory, where access to all kinds of pleasures is not limited. This is a paradise designed for everyone and it is not for nothing that most Europeans tend to spend their holidays here. In addition, Arona is the world’s second most popular resort for people with reduced mobility.
The municipality is imbued with the marine spirit of the beaches of Los Cristianos, which without a doubt is one of the most beautiful sights of the Canary Islands. Pedestrian streets calling to the promenade and promising adventures, the main alley – the sea, overlooking Las Americas, tempting shop windows, a surprise around every turn of the road. Las Americas Beach is considered a model for the quality of service and the number of exclusive offers among restaurants and cafes, the general standards of the hospitality industry. It is also a safe economic space for a host of international companies and boutiques of the largest brands.
Admiring the wonders of nature, we are gradually approaching the beach of Las Gaietas. A little further on is the Costa del Silencio (the “quiet coast”), here you will find unique places for relaxing walks.
All villages look traditional in every detail, the streets and squares are designed almost the same. They are open to the sea, and here you have a whole sea of impressions. Equally interesting is the mountainous, quiet Arona, where most of the treasures of culture are collected, where there is a living history at every step: old narrow streets, family estates, ornate balconies and colorful facades covered with greenery – the architecture of the Canary city in all its glory of the most elegant quarters.
The municipality of Arona is a good place to start your acquaintance with the island of Tenerife!

The hotel pleasantly surprised me: a two-room suite, a gorgeous view from the balcony, excellent food in the range. The problem that arose during the settlement on the covid certificate was kindly resolved at the reception. The beach is nearby, excellent. Thanks to the host company Itravex, but first of all, to the manager of the Kyiv branch Kristina Kuchiyeva Poikhali with us.

Air tickets Chisinau – Paris – Charles de Gaulle (CDG)
Paris remains one of the most beautiful and romantic tourist destinations, providing the visitor with everything a visitor could possibly want.
Administrative, political and cultural center of France, Paris impresses with its history and impressive architecture with huge boulevards and streets filled with chic shops. As soon as you are here, educational and entertaining activities await you. Whether it’s a walk along the Champs Elysees, a visit to the Louvre, the Sacré Coeur, the Eiffel Tower, the Center Pompidou, Les Invalides, the Musée d’Orsay, Versailles, Fontainebleau, the Musée Brâncuci. .. In each of these places you will be amazed by something special, and this just a few attractions that annually attract millions of tourists from all over the world.
During the visit, tourists will get to know Paris as a world center of history and art, discover the Paris of culinary, fashion, shopping, Paris of various entertainments. We will provide more detailed information about one of them, which will appeal to both adults and especially children, because if you come to Paris with your family, Disneyland is definitely worth a visit.
Paris – how to get there and how to cope
First, let’s get acquainted with some useful information. Paris is served by two airports: Orly, south of Paris, and Charles de Gaulle, to the north, located in Roissy-en-France, connected to Paris by the RER line, a rapid public transport system serving Paris and the suburbs. The city has a railway network – from six Parisian stations, commuter trains, national trains and TGV-s (Train à Grande Vitesse) leave daily for countries such as Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany and the UK.
Accommodation, or rather its price, depends on how much money you have and the level of comfort you need. You can take advantage of the one-star Formula 1 hotel chain, which offers clean and tidy rooms. For a rather hearty breakfast, you pay 3.5 euros more per night when choosing the Première class. If you can afford more and have higher expectations, a premium hotel chain is waiting for you. But don’t count on saving money if you decide to stay in one of them. It is important that the place of residence is near a metro or RER station – with these vehicles you can reach almost any tourist destination.
In the evening you can go to the Latin Quarter to try the traditional Pied de Cochon roti and hot chocolate in different flavors. It is also worth ordering galettes bretonnes (pancakes made from buckwheat flour) with a glass of cider. And since you’re in Paris, a bottle of good wine and some blue cheese won’t hurt.
Other useful tips
A trip to Paris is not complete without a visit to the Eiffel Tower – no one can imagine Paris without it. The second floor can be reached by an elevator or 704 steps. At the second level, you will have to change the elevator to reach the top of the building. On the first two floors you will find two bars, one with macaroons, and on the top floor there is a champagne bar. The entrance fee to the top of the tower is 25 euros for adults and 6.30 euros for children.
Paris, beautiful and tasty
The city is full of restaurants, bistros and cafes. You should definitely order the traditional croque madam/monsieur sandwich at the old restaurant Jacques Cagna in the heart of the Saint-Germain-des-Prés district, one of the best in the area.
Tourist attractions
Entrance to museums will cost an average of 12-13 euros. To save time, perhaps money, you can buy a “museum pass” for monuments that are considered national museums – it costs 32 euros, is valid for three days and allows entry to the main attractions of Paris: the Louvre, the Arc de Triomphe, the Palace of Versailles, the Pantheon, the Museum Orsay, Saint Denis Basilica, Center Pompidou and others. If you are under the age of 26, you can visit all these monuments for free, but you will have to stand in line to get a free ticket at the box office.
You can also purchase the City Deal / Paris pass, the official Paris card that allows you to use public transport included. The card offers unlimited travel for all forms of public transport in the Île-de-France area, including metro, RER, trams and buses. Its price is 13.90 euros per day for three areas (including Paris and nearby suburbs: La Défense, Saint-Denis Basilique, Le Bourget).
Don’t miss out!
Eiffel Tower – symbol of Paris and France. Admire and photograph it below, and climb up to its last level for great views of the city.

We base the humidity comfort level on the dew point, as it determines whether perspiration will evaporate from the skin, thereby cooling the body. Lower dew points feel drier and higher dew points feel more humid. Unlike temperature, which typically varies significantly between night and day, dew point tends to change more slowly, so while the temperature may drop at night, a muggy day is typically followed by a muggy night.
Tenerife South Airport experiences significant seasonal variation in the perceived humidity.
The muggier period of the year lasts for 4.5 months, from June 23 to November 7, during which time the comfort level is muggy, oppressive, or miserable at least 11% of the time. The month with the most muggy days at Tenerife South Airport is September, with 12.5 days that are muggy or worse.
The month with the fewest muggy days at Tenerife South Airport is February, with 0. 1 days that are muggy or worse.

Methodology
For each hour between 8:00 AM and 9:00 PM of each day in the analysis period (1980 to 2016), independent scores are computed for perceived temperature, cloud cover, and total precipitation. Those scores are combined into a single hourly composite score, which is then aggregated into days, averaged over all the years in the analysis period, and smoothed.
Our cloud cover score is 10 for fully clear skies, falling linearly to 9 for mostly clear skies, and to 1 for fully overcast skies.
Our precipitation score, which is based on the three-hour precipitation centered on the hour in question, is 10 for no precipitation, falling linearly to 9 for trace precipitation, and to 0 for 0.04 inches of precipitation or more.
Our tourism temperature score is 0 for perceived temperatures below 50°F, rising linearly to 9 for 65°F, to 10 for 75°F, falling linearly to 9 for 80°F, and to 1 for 90°F or hotter.
Our beach/pool temperature score is 0 for perceived temperatures below 65°F, rising linearly to 9 for 75°F, to 10 for 82°F, falling linearly to 9 for 90°F, and to 1 for 100°F or hotter.
Definitions of the growing season vary throughout the world, but for the purposes of this report, we define it as the longest continuous period of non-freezing temperatures (≥ 32°F) in the year (the calendar year in the Northern Hemisphere, or from July 1 until June 30 in the Southern Hemisphere).
Temperatures at Tenerife South Airport are sufficiently warm year round that it is not entirely meaningful to discuss the growing season in these terms. We nevertheless include the chart below as an illustration of the distribution of temperatures experienced throughout the year.

Temperature and Dew Point
Tenerife South Airport has a weather station that reported reliably enough during the analysis period that we have included it in our network. When available, historical temperature and dew point measurements are taken directly from this weather station. These records are obtained from NOAA’s Integrated Surface Hourly data set, falling back on ICAO METAR records as required.
In the case of missing or erroneous measurements from this station, we fall back on records from nearby stations, adjusted according to typical seasonal and diurnal intra-station differences. For a given day of the year and hour of the day, the fallback station is selected to minimize the prediction error over the years for which there are measurements for both stations.
In this case, the only station close and reliable enough to use as a fallback is Gran Canaria Airport.
Other Data
All data relating to the Sun’s position (e.g., sunrise and sunset) are computed using astronomical formulas from the book, Astronomical Algorithms 2nd Edition , by Jean Meeus.
All other weather data, including cloud cover, precipitation, wind speed and direction, and solar flux, come from NASA’s MERRA-2 Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis . This reanalysis combines a variety of wide-area measurements in a state-of-the-art global meteorological model to reconstruct the hourly history of weather throughout the world on a 50-kilometer grid.
Land Use data comes from the Global Land Cover SHARE database , published by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
Elevation data comes from the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) , published by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
Names, locations, and time zones of places and some airports come from the GeoNames Geographical Database .

The information on this site is provided as is, without any assurances as to its accuracy or suitability for any purpose. Weather data is prone to errors, outages, and other defects. We assume no responsibility for any decisions made on the basis of the content presented on this site.
We draw particular cautious attention to our reliance on the MERRA-2 model-based reconstructions for a number of important data series. While having the tremendous advantages of temporal and spatial completeness, these reconstructions: (1) are based on computer models that may have model-based errors, (2) are coarsely sampled on a 50 km grid and are therefore unable to reconstruct the local variations of many microclimates, and (3) have particular difficulty with the weather in some coastal areas, especially small islands.
We further caution that our travel scores are only as good as the data that underpin them, that weather conditions at any given location and time are unpredictable and variable, and that the definition of the scores reflects a particular set of preferences that may not agree with those of any particular reader.

Tenerife South Airport
Provincia de Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain
weather by month, temperature, precipitation, when to go
On the southern coast of Tenerife, the climate is subtropical desert, with very mild winters and hot, sunny summers.
Meteorological data are collected at Tenerife Sur Airport, or Reina Sofía Airport, which is located near the towns of El Médano and Los Abrigos. This is a very windy area, as the northeastern trade winds slide along the coast. The airport is used to reach the tourist resorts in the southwest of Tenerife (see Playa San Juan, Costa Adeje, Playa de Los Cristianos, Playa de las Américas), which are much less windy because they are protected Mount Teide.
However, when the wind blows from Africa, the temperature rises by several degrees, the wind becomes weak, and the air is filled with desert sand and dust, becoming polluted. This phenomenon is called calima.
The cold record is 9.5 °C (49 °F), recorded in March 2011. The heat record is 44.5 °C (112 °F), recorded in August 1988.
Tenerife South – Climate data
In Tenerife South, the average temperature of the coldest month (February) is of 18.5 °C (65.4 °F), that of the warmest month (August) is of 24.9 °C (76.8 °F). Here are the average temperatures.

Current satellite and rain images for Tenerife South-Reina Sofia Airport, Spain
The location marker is placed on Tenerife South-Reina Sofia Airport. [More]
The real-time satellite image combines visible light during daytime with infrared radiation during nighttime. At night, the image is not dark as infrared radiation can detect temperature differences. Unfortunately, low clouds and fog are difficult to distinguish from ground temperatures and thus can be almost invisible during the night. Meteosat satellite images for Europe are updated in real-time every 5 minutes. GOES-16/GOES-17 (North & South America) and Himawari (Asia) images update every 10 minutes.
Precipitation is estimated from radar and satellites. Precipitation estimates from satellites are less accurate at night than during daytime. Orange crosses mark places where lightning was detected (over Europe).

Monthly weather in Tenerife
The Canary Islands are rightfully considered a paradise on Earth. Especially popular among tourists from all over the world is the largest island of the archipelago – Tenerife. It is known that the resort is often called the “island of eternal spring” because of the subtropical climate; here you can relax on the beach all year round.
In addition, the weather in Tenerife in Spain is not uniform. The fact is that the island is divided by a mountain range that separates the southern and northern parts. Moreover, their climate is noticeably different: the southwest is arid and hot, with a quiet and calm ocean, and the north is humid, rainy, windy, replete with large waves. Therefore, you should choose the time of year for spending your long-awaited vacation on the island carefully and taking into account the peculiarities. So, we will tell you about the weather in Tenerife by months.
Winter in Tenerife
The weather in Tenerife in December is quite humid and warm in autumn. There are few rainy days – no more than seven or eight. In the south of the island, the average air temperature is +17 +19⁰С during the day, and in the north it barely reaches +15⁰С. At the same time, the ocean water warms up to + 20⁰С. It is cool at night along the entire coast, so you will need warm clothes.
If we talk about the weather in Tenerife in January, it should be noted that it is similar to the climatic conditions in December. It is sunny and relatively warm (+20 +21⁰С), there are rains for no more than ten days, but short-term ones. The water, due to the cold ocean current, warms up to + 18⁰С.
February weather, by the way, is not much different from the previous two winter months. Swimming, of course, will be cold, but this is the perfect time for air baths.
Spring on Tenerife
Spring on the island is a capricious young lady. In March, the air warms up unstably – in addition to the average +21 +22⁰С, Tenerife occasionally pleases residents with hot days up to +30⁰С. It is still cold at night – +15⁰С. But in March it is dry, rains are very rare.
The April weather of the island of Tenerife usually gives vacationers dry and warm days – the air in the daytime reaches an average of +23 + 24⁰С (this is in the southern part of the island), at night it is slightly warmer than in March – +16 + 17⁰С. True, the water of the Atlantic Ocean is still not suitable for swimming – + 18⁰С.
The last month of spring brings warm and dry weather in the south of Tenerife: during the day the air temperature reaches +24 +26⁰С, at night it warms up to +17 +18⁰С. Unfortunately, the water in the ocean is still cold (+18⁰С).
Summer in Tenerife
Summer, especially in the southern half of the island, is quite hot (but not suffocating) and dry. In the northern part of Tenerife, rain is possible, although rare. In June, the air in the daytime warms up to +25 +27⁰С on average. True, in the north, due to the breeze, it is a little cooler – +23 +24⁰С. But the main thing is that with such comfortable weather on the island of Tenerife, the water temperature reaches +20 ⁰С!
July pleases with an increase in day and night temperatures – +28 +29⁰С and +20⁰С respectively. The water in the ocean warms up to quite pleasant +21⁰С. The last month of summer is also considered extremely favorable for holidays: sunny, hot during the day (+29 +30⁰С), tolerable at night (+21⁰С) and comfortable water on the ocean coast – +22⁰С.
Autumn in Tenerife
The beginning of autumn sets the weather in Tenerife close to August. The water in the ocean becomes as warm as possible: it warms up by another 1 degree – + 23⁰С. It is not uncommon for rain to fall this month, although not for long.
In October it gets noticeably colder, especially in the north of the island: during the day the average temperature reaches +26⁰С, at night – +18 +19⁰С. At the same time, the water temperature drops (+21⁰С). The amount of precipitation and rainy days is increasing, but they are short and weak.
If we talk about the weather in Tenerife in November, then it should be noted that the last autumn month is cool: during the day the air warms up to +20 +22⁰С, at night it cools down to +17⁰С. But the ocean is warm – its temperature reaches 22⁰С. There are also rainy days – up to 7-8 days, on average, about 45 mm of precipitation falls.

The special geographical position of Tenerife, as well as the influence of some favorable factors, keeps the weather warm every month throughout the island. In any month, the thermometer scale does not fall below 20 degrees Celsius.

If you go up the island, you can find vegetation typical of the Mediterranean: pine forests and climbing shrubs. For a long time, the tribes living in this area called it “Snow Mountain”.

They brought it from Africa. By the way, about her. Do not forget that the Canary Islands are not that far from the equator. And there, if you remember their geography course, well, it’s very hot. Therefore, even if clouds are running across the sky of Tenerife, and a light breeze is running through the body, the chances of burning out still remain high. Don’t forget protective gear.
Soothing information for zoophobes: Walking through the forests of Tenerife, climbing high on the rocks, you will not meet birds of prey or animals, as well as dangerous insects. Sharks and other marine reptiles do not swim to the shores of the ocean. In this regard, everything on the island is quiet, calm and safe even for children.

Climate and geographical features
Tenerife is considered the highest island in the Atlantic Ocean thanks to the volcano called Teide.
Due to the mountain range, 2 climatic zones are created in this territory:
north, relatively humid and with dense vegetation;
sunny south, quite arid.
The climate of the island is unique and is divided into 2 parts. In the north of the island it is mild and cool, while in the south it is warmer due to sunlight. Exhausting heat is not inherent even in the southern part of the island, and warm weather lasts all year round. Precipitation is rare, especially in the south, where the main resorts are located. Visitors can swim at any time of the year, because the water temperature is below +19can not be.
The weather conditions in Tenerife allow you to practice any water sport in any month of the year. Relatively rarely, but it happens that hot air comes from the Sahara desert, and the daytime temperature reaches +39 degrees. After a few days, the air temperature again becomes comfortable and pleasant for others.
When to go and how to choose a place?
Tenerife with its climatic features is suitable for year-round recreation. If the trip is planned with children, then the best time for a comfortable stay will be the summer and autumn months.
It doesn’t rain, which is good. Summer passes without sultry suffocation. The air temperature remains comfortable even for children and pensioners. During the day it is not higher than +26, the water in the sea is quite warm within +22 … +25.
Winter and spring months are also suitable for a family trip, but it is better to choose the south coast with smaller waves. Although for connoisseurs of such a sport as surfing, this advice is not useful.
Tenerife (monthly weather can vary significantly on different coasts) is an island where those who come with children need to be very careful. Most beaches are equipped with wave protection, breakwaters, which is ideal even for swimming during big waves and strong gusts of wind.
August and September are the time when Tenerife is crowded with vacationers, while October is more calm for holidays, and the weather and water temperature are identical for summer and autumn.
Tenerife is a magical island with amazing nature, picturesque green spaces and a volcanic landscape. It will be interesting to look at the opening view not only for adults, but also for children.
Shopping
Tenerife provides many good opportunities for quality and pleasant shopping.
First, there are two periods of big sales: summer and winter. Summer lasts from July 1 to August 31, and winter begins after the end of the Christmas holidays on January 7 and ends on March 6, shortly before the start of the tourist season.
But apart from sales, there are interesting offers.
First of all, shopping lovers are attracted by the so-called “Golden Mile” – the central street in Playa de Las Americas, where most shops and shopping centers with clothes and accessories of any price category are concentrated: from budget brands to luxury brands.
In the city of Costa Adeje, there is a new modern Siam mall, in which not only shops, but also entertainment for children in the form of playgrounds and attractions.
At the same time, in the capital of the island – Santa Cruz de la Tenerife – there are many more shopping centers, so after a “warm-up” on the coast, shopping professionals go there.
We advise you to pay special attention to regional souvenirs and products that you can bring from Tenerife:
Honey – for many tourists, it is an amazing discovery that Tenerife has beautiful apiaries where delicious honey is produced every year.
Sauces – most dishes have such an original taste because local chefs know how to choose sauces for each of them.
Jewelry and souvenirs made of pearls – in local shops you can find wonderful products made from sea pearls.
Articles or jewelry made from olivine, a semi-precious stone found in Tenerife as a result of past eruptions of Mount Teide.
Wine – the island is part of Spain, so on its territory you can find a full range of Spanish wines with different shades and tastes.
For those looking for something old and unique, we recommend visiting the local flea market in Puerto de la Cruz, which is open two days a week morning – on Saturday and Wednesday or in Santa Cruz on Sundays.

Tenerife (weather by month will help determine the best time to travel) – a famous year-round resort:

Diving
One of the activities on the island is scuba diving. The best places for this are the southern and southwestern coasts. In other parts, the weather often interferes, there are many waves, more often it rains.
Most of the dive centers in Tenerife are located in Las Americas and Costa Adeje. This option is suitable for beginners and those who do not want to go to dive sites on their own. It should be understood that you will not dive near the resorts, you will be taken to quieter corners, where the best conditions for diving and a richer water world. True, some unscrupulous centers even offer tourists to dive near Las Americas, where all the fish are scared away by bathing tourists and jet skis with boats. As a result, you will get a negative experience from diving in Tenerife.
Therefore, we recommend that experienced and sophisticated divers immediately go to places where professionals start. First of all, this is a small resort Costa del Silencio. You can also go to Las Galletas, Punta de la Rasca, Playa Paraiso and Punta de Teno. Here prices are much lower than in Las Americas. The best dive site is considered to be Los Chuchos, where the richest marine life is. You will be surrounded by stingrays, fur cats, eagles, turtles and many smaller fish.
Other Tenerife dive sites: Punta Blanka, Condesito, Faro, Punta Rasca, Cueva de Palm Mar, Falla Uno, El Arco, Champinones, Montania Amorill, Huesi Mountain, Punta Negro.
If you want to explore caves, grottoes and shipwrecks, Cueva de los Serebros and El Condesito are the places to go.
Those who live in the north of Tenerife should go diving to Atlantis, Aquario, Barranco Seco.

All the locals on the island speak Spanish, but only a few speak English. It would not be superfluous to learn a few phrases in their native language and show off their knowledge. Local residents will appreciate this fact.
Due to the alternating voltage, it is better to use adapter devices for the operation of electrical appliances. You can get them at any local supermarket or hardware store.
It is better for visitors to drink and use purified water for cooking, which can be bought in a store. Drinking local water can negatively affect the health and functioning of the intestines.
When buying goods on the market, you can bargain by lowering the price of the goods. This number will not work in supermarkets.
Tourists should clarify the specific place on the island where they are going to, and what the weather is like there during this period, because it can vary significantly.

Cuisine
Canarian cuisine is a symbiosis of world gastronomic passions that have received a response of approval from the indigenous people. The basis is, of course, Spanish cuisine. But the proximity of Africa could not but affect the “same” taste. Added a couple of “spicy notes” Latin America, where at one time, if you study history, the islanders sailed to work. And the proximity of the ocean with its inhabitants completed the formation of the traditional Canarian menu, which you will get your hands on when visiting the restaurant. Oh yes! Not without fast food, of course. A touch of modernity cannot be wiped off the face of the earth, even if you want to relax as a “savage”.
Are you salivating yet? Well, let’s add specifics:
Gofio – bread-not bread, barley dough with a special taste. It can be considered as an independent side dish for meat. And you can even find it in the composition of some dessert.
Once in Tenerife, you will definitely get acquainted with Canarian red and green sauces, which are traditionally served here for lunch and dinner.
Papas arrugadas are ordinary potatoes boiled in an unusual way. Would you say trite? It is unlikely that papas merchants will agree with you. For one kilogram they usually ask for € 8. What is the secret? In a special kind of potato that looks different and tastes incredible.
Everything is clear with fish. There is a lot of it, it is fresh, valued above meat. True, there is one caveat: a truly delicious fish can not be tasted in some well-known restaurant in a popular resort. Will have to move farther. For example, the village of Tahao will please fish gourmets and will not ask for a lot of money for it.
As meat you will be offered rabbit, goat, chicken or chicken, beef and pork in various variations from soups to stews.
The island has the whole alphabet of fruits and their derivatives. Would you like to try palm honey? And, of course, cheeses are incomparable. They are usually made from sheep and goat milk.

The holiday season here continues in winter, which is facilitated by a large number of modern sandy beaches and the developed infrastructure of the island. However, in the south, rather sparse flora and desert landscapes are the flip side of dry, warm weather.

Weather on the island of Tenerife
Holidays on the island of Tenerife
Attractions
Entertainment
On the one hand, there is no sweltering heat, characteristic of the tropics.
But since the temperature of air and water even in winter can reach +20 about C – the climate cannot be called subtropical either.
In addition, due to the division of the island into two parts by a mountain range, the climate differs in the north and south. In the north it is cooler and more humid, while in the south it is much warmer and there is practically no rain.
Weather changes in different seasons are as follows:
In spring, air and water temperatures gradually increase. During the day it reaches +18-20 about C. At night it is a little cooler – +15-16 about S. Occasionally it rains, by the end of spring their number is significantly reduced.
In summer, the air temperature rises to a maximum of +30 o C, and the water heats up to +22-23 o C. Low humidity and a low level of solar activity favor a comfortable rest. There is practically no rain. Small precipitation may fall in the central mountainous regions, but not more than 1-2 times a month.
Autumn time is slightly different from the summer season. The air temperature during the day drops slightly to + 23-25 r C. In the evenings and at night it also gets a little cooler (+17-+19 r C). But the water remains warm, so you can safely swim. The amount of precipitation slightly increases to 5-7 per month, especially in the northwestern part.
Humidity increases slightly during the winter months. Despite the increase in the number of rains, they are short-lived and pass quickly. On the southern coast, the thermometer drops to +17-19 about C, in the north it rises to a maximum of +15 to C. Evenings and nights at this time of the year on the island are quite cold, sweaters are indispensable. The temperature of the water attracts few people to swim (+19 to C), so the flow of tourists is noticeably reduced.
The best time for a beach holiday is from mid-spring to mid-autumn. The peak season in Tenerife is September-October. At this time, the water temperature reaches its maximum. But even in winter there are days when you can safely swim and sunbathe.
Despite the fact that many tourists come to the Canary Islands mainly for a beach holiday, there is something to see and do on the island in their free time from swimming.
Holidays on the island of Tenerife
Well-groomed resort areas, cleanliness on the streets, many hotels, developed infrastructure – all this allows you to comfortably relax on the island. Night clubs and discos are concentrated mainly in the major resorts of the island, where mainly young people go. In quiet resorts, the majority of tourists are elderly people and families with children.
Attractions
History buffs will not be bored on the island. Many attractions are located in the capital of Tenerife – Santa Cruz. In addition, you can visit the ancient towns, which have a lot of interesting things from the point of view of history.
The symbol of the main city of the island – Auditorio de Tenerife concert hall , located on the capital’s waterfront. The Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava became the author of the creation, which gained fame all over the world. The building impresses with its unusual forms. The facade of the building is made in the form of a giant shell, and the roof resembles a wave. Inside the building there are two concert halls. Visiting a symphony concert, you can hear a unique organ that surprises with its unusual sound thanks to the perfect acoustic system of the building.
Teno National Park occupies the northwestern part of the island. Viewpoints are located in the narrow places of the park. The highest point is at the top of the massif, at an altitude of 1350 meters above sea level. Viewing platforms offer a view of picturesque mountain landscapes, fantastic gorges, rocky cliffs. This park attracts trekking enthusiasts who prefer hiking along mountain roads.
Anaga Nature Reserve located in the eastern part of the island. Here you can see relic plants preserved from prehistoric times. There are only a handful of such places on the planet.
The ancient city of San Cristobal de la Laguna was the first capital of the island. On the territory of the settlement there are several religious sites: cathedrals, temples, churches, monasteries.
Basilica of Candelaria – a Catholic church, the main shrine of which is the statue of Our Lady – the patroness of the island.
The six pyramids of Guimar located in the southeastern part of Tenerife. Scientists are still arguing about the origin of these structures. Some of them believe that they were created by the hands of local peasants.
Hell’s Gorge , which is the place of residence of the first inhabitants of the island – the Guanches. The tourist route starts in the city of Adeja and ends near the waterfall, the fresh water of which flows throughout Tenerife.
Teide Volcano , from the height of which you can see not only the whole island of Tenerife, but also some of the neighboring islands.
In Tenerife, you can see unique species of birds, plants, insects that you will not find anywhere else. And at the Marky Punk Petting Zoo, it is allowed to feed tame lemurs and monkeys.
You can get acquainted with the history of the island in numerous museums operating in the capital of Tenerife.

Mid-June pleases guests with the Corpus Christi flower festival. At this time, the streets of cities are covered with carpets of a wide variety of colors.
August is the month dedicated to Our Lady of Candelar, whose feast is celebrated on the 14th and 15th.
The celebration of Christmas and New Year is no less colorful. City squares are flooded with people having fun and dancing under fireworks.
January is dedicated to the music festival “De Musica de Canarias”.
The peak of the holidays falls on February, the time of the famous Mardi Gras carnival. It ranks second in scope and beauty after the Brazilian Carnival.
The beginning of the festival is marked by the choice of the Queen. For several days, music concerts and street entertainment are held on the streets of the city. At the end of the carnival, Lent begins.

I’ve been to Tenerife many times and I have to say that Loro Parque is always my personal highlight. I love it there and it’s worth every penny! The enclosures for the animals are great, whether the free-flight facility for the birds or the penguin enclosure, because it’s snowing, etc. it’s really absolutely amazing. Everything is clean, whether for the visitors or with the animals. You can tell how much effort each nurse takes. Even if you have doubts about the dolphins or the orcas, the park has so much more to offer! The shows of the orcas or the dolphins have changed a lot in recent years. Loro Parque also uses these very well for education about pollution or what to do if you find an animal stranded. But to each his own, you don’t have to. I always like to go back and there are often renewals and renovations to be seen. The whole park is full of love and it’s totally worth it for big or small.

Very good organization in Loroparque services. Despite the large influx there is no feeling of overcrowding. The restoration services are agile and professional and there are no waiting times to access. The wonderful, well-kept, cinematic park… the design, the vegetation, how well cared for everything is spectacular. The rooms of the animals are clean as if they had just been released 5 minutes before opening. an impressive park

Absolutely fabulous day out – we initially thought it seemed expensive, but read reviews advising us to plan our day, & so made sure we saw all the shows & then took our time visiting the other animals. It was worth every euro. We also took a packed lunch, but noticed that the food was very reasonably priced. Plenty of little cafes & shaded dining areas. Beautiful surroundings & happy, well-cared for animals. We spent 5 & a half hours there!!

Overall it was definitely worth doing and was good value for money. However, we got picked up from Ole Tropical at 8. 20am and didn’t arrive at Loro Parque until 10.50am so we were sat on the coach for 2 and a half hours and we weren’t even the first ones on. On the way back the coach leaves at 5pm which this was on time and we arrived back just before 6.30pm. The park itself was amazing, the best I have ever been to.

Helemaal super! Voor het hotel van best tenerife opgehaald en een mooie busrit. Je ziet ook nog is veel van het eiland. Het park was ook heel leuk. Om 5 uur wordt je opgehaald door de bus om weer terug te gaan naar het hotel. Top ervaring en allemaal super goed geregeld.
What they need to improve is transportation. We were the first to get on the bus and we had 2 hours and a half to go, on the way back instead of being circular and being the first to get off it was through the same place and we were the last, I think this should be changed. for the return there was only the driver, who was very attentive. In the loropark we were from 11:00 and something to 5:00 less something, it is short to see it carefully and to be able to see the shows. Seeing the orcas is impressive. The animal spaces are quite small in general, we believe that they should be expanded for their well-being.

I tell how we went to Loro Parque on the island of Tenerife, watched killer whales, sea lions and parrots, walked along the bottom of the “ocean” next to the sharks and went to the “South Pole” to see the king penguins. I will also tell you about the best black sand beach in Tenerife.
The most visited attraction in Tenerife is Loro Parque Tenerife. It is impossible to come to the island and not hear about it, because the bright logos of Loro Parque with the image of a parrot and a dolphin are found here starting from the airport.
Built with funds from local resident Wolfgang Kiessling in 1972, it has become a zoo, circus and botanical garden all rolled into one. Gradually, its popularity among tourists grew, and now one and a half million tourists visit it every year. Almost everyone arriving in Tenerife comes here, and some come back here again and again.
What is Loro Parque?
Thai village in Loro Park
This is something between a zoo and a dolphinarium. Initially, Loro Park was conceived as an exotic place, so at the entrance Kissling conceived the “Thai Village” – a very colorful complex that includes six wooden buildings in the Thai style. Their roofs are decorated with real gold. By the way, some time ago, the Queen of Thailand visited here, and she was very pleased with the buildings she saw.
Let’s go to the killer whale show!
Killer whale shows are held 3 times a day. We just wanted more than anything to get on this show. Headlong rushed to the other end of the park, so as not to be late. The show takes place in the indoor pool. Spectators sit around the perimeter, and it is advisable to have raincoats in the front rows. Killer whales love splashing!
I liked the performance very much. Charged with some positive energy.
Killer whales look very nice and kind, but do not forget that they are the most dangerous predators! I remember once watching a French film, where the killer whale trainer got a little distracted and her legs were bitten off. The main role was played by the charming Marion Cotillard, and the film is called Rust and Bone. Look. About 10 years ago, a similar story happened in Loro Parque, but the trainer did not survive.
Next show on schedule…
Sea Lion Show
The 1200cc pool hosts sea lion shows and dolphin shows that are always a hit with audiences. By the way, the dolphinarium here is the largest in Europe.
Loro Parque Dolphin Show
Loro Parque Dolphin Show
Loro Parque Walk
After two shows we decide to take a walk in the park. I wanted to see parrots. Here they are for every taste and color. Particularly open enclosure with a mesh stretched at the top. You can walk along it, climb trees along the ladders, watch the birds at different levels.
In the name of the park, the word “loro” means “parrot”. And this is no accident, because with a collection of these amazing birds, few parks can compare with Loro Park. There are 3.5 thousand of them, belonging to more than 340 species and subspecies. They not only sit in cages, but are also participants in circus performances in which parrots fly over the heads of spectators, add up numbers, read and ride a scooter. In a special pavilion, you can see how small parrots are fed nectar from a spoon. That’s where we headed:
Loro Show
The show is in demand. Already 15 minutes before the start of the show there were no seats left in the hall. The main characters are parrots that perform different tasks from the host. In short, fun.
Gorillas
Some time ago Loro Parque decided to do an interesting experiment. Six male gorillas of different ages were brought here from different countries, who were united by one thing: at home they fought too actively for leadership in their packs, so they were sent to Loro Park for a kind of re-education. Now they live quite peacefully in the same enclosure behind armored glass, willingly posing for tourists from there, and park workers can’t determine which of them is the leader. 🙂
Along with great apes (in addition to gorillas, chimpanzees also live in the park), tourists can meet tigers, jaguars, and crocodiles in Loro Park. Of the large birds, pelicans, cranes and flamingos live here.
All demonstration events are organized in such a way that once buying a ticket, the visitor can watch a large number of show programs and visit all the pavilions. The plant world is represented in this wonderful place by a large botanical garden spread over 13.5 hectares of land and an orchid greenhouse. In the botanical garden grow cacti, over 7 thousand palm trees, many exotic plants. Of the additional entertainment in Loro Park, an African market and a gift shop, a playground, and photography with parrots are organized. You can have lunch without leaving the park, in one of the local restaurants or cafes.
Penguin Planet in Loro Park
Loro Park is famous not only for parrots and killer whales. Here is the world’s largest penguinarium called “Penguin Planet”, which has collected 180 individuals of these flightless birds. We also looked at the penguins!
This place is equipped in the form of a piece of Antarctica. The conditions here are as close as possible to the real Antarctic. To make the penguins feel at home, a special snow gun produces 12 tons of snow every day. Visitors are transported through this amazing snow world by a leisurely moving path.
Aquarium
Aquarium in Loro Parque
We finish our tour today with a mini-oceanarium. In Loro Parque there is also a huge aquarium with 15,000 sea and river inhabitants living in it, collected from all over the world, including tropical fish, inhabitants of local waters and 40 species of living corals.
Tunnel through the aquarium
Particularly noteworthy is the glass tunnel, 18 meters long, passing through the water column. Once in it, visitors can see in every detail the smallest details of aquatic life, down to microscopic teeth on the skin, floating right above the heads of the impressive size of the sharks.
Sharks! Floating right over our heads. The last time we visited the aquarium was in Bangkok. It’s also interesting here. In addition to various fish, scuba divers swam here 🙂 They cleaned the aquarium.

how to get ready and how not to miss the fun
We say “Tenerife” – we present the Canaries, black volcanic sand, the ocean and a prestigious resort. The protection of nature and the salvation of entire populations of animals and birds from extinction come to few people among the first associations. And this is exactly what Loro Parque, or Parrot Park, has been successfully doing for many years.
Maria Kulikova
Traveler
In the 1970s, a young German, Wolfgang Kiessling, fell in love with Tenerife, quit the airline he worked for, moved his wife here, and stayed permanently. And since the choice of entertainment in Tenerife is small, I decided to diversify it with a small park of parrots, which received the simple name Loro Park (from the Spanish “loro” – a parrot). Thus, in 1972, the history of the richest collection of colorful screamers in terms of species diversity began, which has no analogues in the world to this day. Throughout its history, the park has received numerous state and international awards, is recognized by TripAdvisor users as the best zoo in the world, and received the Travelers’ Choice award in 2017 and 2018.
Over the 47 years of the park’s existence, the number of parrots has grown from 150 individuals to 4,000 specimens. Now 350 species and subspecies of parrots from all over the globe live in Tenerife. Birds do not languish in cramped cages, as is the case in many zoos in the world, but flutter freely in the crowns of trees for their pleasure.
Gradually, new residents began to appear in Loro Parque, many with their own stories – fish, tigers, monkeys and others. Many residents come here through the rescue program. They save both individuals and entire populations from extinction. For example, dolphins cannot be released from the park into the wild – they will simply die. And some endangered species of parrots are specially bred and sent to their usual habitat. So they did with small hyacinth macaws – they sent several specimens to Brazil in the wild.
Pink flamingos roam freely in the clearing and sometimes come very close to visitors
Since 1994, the Loro Parque Foundation has been internationally engaged in the study of parrots and cetaceans and in improving human environmental awareness. The money from the sale of tickets and souvenirs goes to the development of the Foundation, that is, to a useful cause.
I will tell you how to plan a trip and a day in Loro Parque and how to see the most interesting things. More things to do with kids in Tenerife
Loro Parca 9 official website0003
All residents of the park are surrounded by attention, care and love from the workers who feed, water and nurse their wards every day. Some animals even forage for their food as if it were their real habitat.
There is a veterinary clinic on the territory of the zoo, where doctors sometimes operate on their wards, and any visitor can watch the process through large panoramic windows.
Dozens of penguins of various species, including endangered ones, live on a huge ice floe surrounded by water, in conditions close to Antarctica. They roll on the ice, hatch their offspring, cut through the icy waters around their iceberg. And they observe the habits and facial expressions of people who smoothly pass them on a moving tape on the other side of the glass.
The largest penguinarium in the world is located in Loro Parque
There are only four performances: sea lions, dolphins, parrots and killer whales. Each is held in its own amphitheater several times during the day and lasts about 20 minutes. There are enough seats, in extreme cases you can always tamp the neighbors a little tighter. It is clearly visible from every point of the amphitheater, and the most interesting is displayed on the screen in the center. It also shows funny and useful shots before the start of the show, so it’s better to come 10 minutes early.
A Naturavision documentary about nature and the damage that humans cause to the environment is shown in the mirror dome pavilion.
Loro Show starring parrots since 1972 was the first show of its kind in Europe. Its purpose is to acquaint a person with the intelligence of these birds. Nothing supernatural happens: parrots participate in various scenes, count, speak, fly over the heads of the audience.
The park’s Dolphinarium is considered one of the most modern in the world. And although dolphins now
few people can be surprised – their intelligence and kindness are known – performance Dolph ins Show is filled with tenderness and
charm of these creatures.
Sea lions show with sea lions – that’s where you will have a good laugh. Together with instructors, they will give odds to all comedy shows on TV. Sea lions have an amazing sense of humor, which they demonstrate to the thunderous applause of the audience.
The main find of the zoo – Show Orca Oceans – huge black and white, predatory, but not in relation to humans, magnificent killer whales! Their power and speed are the basis of the performance. And a cold shower. If you like to sit closer to the stage, stock up on a raincoat or buy it there for 3 € – there is a lot of water in the pool, and the whales are very heavy.
What makes this performance truly special is the story of a killer whale named Morgan rescued from death and moved to Loro Park. She is deaf, but deafness did not prevent Morgan from adapting among her relatives and becoming a mother. This is largely the merit of trainers who know how to win the trust and love of such big and wayward predators.
You don’t have to go to all the other performances, but you have to go to this one. Haven’t been to a show with killer whales – haven’t been to Loro Parque.
The sea lion very naturally pretended to be sick and waited for help from the trainerKercas won my heart! I couldn’t resist and visited this performance twice. The power and the ease with which killer whales jump out of the depth of the pool amaze me
Hundreds of luminous multi-colored pulsating jelly “mushrooms” of various sizes and shapes with meter-long tentacle threads – the most unusual and mysterious exposition of all that I have ever seen. In the laboratory at the entrance to the hall, in special aquariums, zoologists breed small jellyfish “to feed” larger cannibal jellyfish and help in the reproduction of existing species with the help of an incubator.
The hall with jellyfish looks very mysterious. Large and small, luminous, transparent and multi-colored jellyfish swim in huge flasks with water. And this is an incubator in which small jellyfish are grown to feed the larger ones
Here, the park staff nurse and feed the chicks, which for some reason were abandoned by their parents. Moving from one window to another, you can study all the stages of maturation of parrots.
Parrot show pavilionSome birds live in these enclosures
The zoo is open from 08:30 to 18:45 daily. This time is quite enough to inspect all the enclosures once, see all the performances, have lunch, get lost and return to your pet to say goodbye (if one appears). I couldn’t say goodbye to killer whales the first time and ran to the second show with their participation. It is unlikely that you will be able to spend less than five hours in this Garden of Eden, so it is better to set aside a whole day to visit and leisurely explore it.
Loro Parque is a huge 13. 5 hectare nature reserve with lush tropical vegetation, narrow winding paths and buzzing crowds of tourists from all over the world. It’s easy to get lost here. If you do not plan to stay here overnight and study the behavior of white Bengal tigers at night, you should take a map of the park at the entrance. All living creatures, cafes, toilets are marked on it, there is a schedule of performances with locations. Study this map carefully and you will be able to make your route so that in between shows (which are included in the ticket price) you can see everything else and even buy a souvenir as a keepsake.
The white Bengal tiger has a large enclosure, so it is not easy to take a photo
Cafes are evenly distributed throughout the park, selling mainly jamon and cheese sandwiches, sweet buns, ice cream and drinks. A cup of coffee with a sandwich costs 7-8 € on average. There are a couple of establishments with the usual hot menu. The cost of one dish is from 8 €.
Park rules do not prohibit bringing your own food and drinks. Therefore, you can safely take a thermos and your favorite dish with you and dine at a table in specially designated picnic areas. There are two of them on the territory of the zoo.

Loro Parque is not just a zoo with rich flora and fauna, in which you move from one enclosure to another, take hundreds of pictures and forget about what you saw before the vacation is over. This is a research project that is trying with all its might to preserve and increase the number of unique animals and birds, but not for people, but for their own sake. Through proximity to the natural habitat of animals and birds, the park opens people’s eyes to the vulnerability of nature to human indifference. This is an amazing world, having visited it, you will remember Loro Park and Tenerife with warmth for a long time.
penguins, parrots, monkeys and other animals
Loro Parque is one of the major zoos in the world. We will tell you why so many people strive to get to Loro Parque in Tenerife and why it regularly takes first place in the ratings.
Remember, Loro Parque is a zoo where animals are kept in captivity. And despite the fact that this captivity is very beautiful, it is still lack of freedom, sadness and pain. Animals must live in freedom. Remember this and teach your children the right things.
The zoo is located in the Puerto de la Cruz area. It was created in 1970 by the German Wolfgang Kiesling and his father.
On December 17, 1972, the official opening to the public took place. At the very beginning, Loro Park occupied an area of 13,000 square meters. m. The conditions of the natural habitat of animals were recreated, more than 150 parrots were brought, the first European shows with parrots took place. Currently, the territory has grown to 135,000 square meters. More than 40 million tourists have visited Loro Park since the opening.
The history of the zoo began long before its foundation. As advanced psychologists say, all motives and reasons must be sought in childhood. In our case, in the childhood of the creator of Loro Parque, Wolfgang Kiesling. An ordinary German boy passionately dreamed of having a pet, but could not decide on a choice. I had to turn to the “wise” dad, who, knowing about his son’s addictions, advised him to get a parrot. From that day on, parrots became a part of Wolfgang’s life. And when, many years later, Herr Kiesling, who has become a respectable businessman, will look for an industry where to invest his family capital, he will suddenly want to create a paradise for his birds. And Tenerife will become such a paradise, where the “Parrot Park” was created.
[notification type=”alert-info” close=”false” ]An obligatory point of the cultural program in Tenerife – almost all tourists choose to visit Loro Parque – the main zoo in the Canaries.[/notification]
Over time, other exotic animals joined the birds. The first colleague of the red parrot on the logo of the park was a funny dolphin, marking the creation of a swimming pool and aquarium in Loro Parque. And in 2006, they were accompanied by a killer whale, or rather its large tail, skillfully drawn between a parrot and a dolphin.
History of Loro park
1972 – Established, over 150 parrots introduced, parrot show premiered in Europe. 1978 – The territory of the park is expanded to 35,000 sq. m, acquired the first animals of other species: alligators, turtles and chimpanzees. 1982 – Built by Loro Vision, the total area is increased to 60,000 sq. m. 1983 – A chick-rearing center with 100 aviaries was built. 1987 – The largest dolphinarium in Europe is opened. 1989 – Orchid garden and separate alligator enclosure opened. 1990 – The Gambian Market opens its doors. 1991 – Tiger Island discovered. 1992 – The area of Loro Park has grown to 135,000 sq.m. 1993 – Princess Galyani Vadhana opened a Thai village, a porcelain museum, a children’s park and Chosa de los Duques restaurant. 1993 Gorilla enclosure and aquarium opened. 1993 – Free train for visitors started. 1996 – Naturavision replaced Loro Vision. 1997 Arab Palace and Titi Monkey Playground opened. 1998 – New chimpanzee playground opened.

The Marine Hall educational center began its work. 2007 – A large aviary was created for the free movement of parrots. 2009 – Katandra Tritops pavilion opened.
What and who awaits visitors in Loro Parque?
[notification type=”alert-success” close=”false” ]Getting into the park, from the first steps to the exit, you feel for yourself how high the bar of service standards is raised, how well the observance of private, state and international interests is successfully balanced with care for the environment environment and nature. Loro Parque is an important tourist attraction not only for Puerto de la Cruz and Tenerife, but for the entire Canary Islands as a whole. A project focused on quality service and constant renewal, today it has become a symbol of entrepreneurial success in the Canary Islands![/notification]
Firstly, the world’s largest collection of parrots (more exotic birds can only be found in the Amazonian jungle, and then only certain species). You will definitely be offered to take a picture with one of the parrots, and at the same time they will almost “force” you to buy a branded poisonous yellow baseball cap. Its cost is only 1 euro, but the finished photo, which will be waiting for you at the exit, will cost you 8 euros. However, taking or not taking a picture as a keepsake is a voluntary matter for everyone.
In warm Tenerife, a piece of Antarctica awaits you and its constant inhabitants – penguins, absolutely sure that they are in their homeland: a snow cannon showers 12 tons of snow daily on the penguinarium. Gorillas “moved” from Africa to the Canaries, who rather meditate in enclosures than arrange “family” showdowns. The American “ladies” in Loro Parque are the very killer whales whose show attracts the most viewers.
In addition to the performance of seemingly benevolent marine predators, visitors can also see shows of fur seals, dolphins and, of course, parrots. Entertainment visits are included in the ticket price, but in order to be in time for all the performances, you need to plan your itinerary around Loro Parque very well.
By the way, the visitors themselves can arrange a small show. The fact is that at the very entrance to the park, a Thai village awaits them, in the middle of which they created an artificial pond. Koi live in it – multi-colored Japanese carps. If you throw pieces of bread to these “greedy people”, the water will literally boil up: which always zealously win back every extra piece of food, despite the fact that the carps are fed very well.
It will be very interesting to watch tigers, marmosets, jaguars, a flock of flamingos, crocodiles, turtles and a charming family of meerkats that have found their home in the tropical thickets of Loro Parca in Tenerife. Adult guests of the park will like the orchid garden, the little ones – on the playground and in the corner of Australia, which consists of hanging stairs.
There are no problems with food in Loro Parque, but the establishments presented here are more like fast foods, where gastronomic delights are not to be found. You can save money and come to the park with your sandwiches. And don’t forget the list of the best food in Tenerife!
Loro Parque also fulfills an important mission in the restoration of the parrot population: every year more than a thousand chicks are born here, which fly around the world to the traditional habitats of their species.
Don’t forget the list of all parks in Tenerife.

Loro Parque, Puerto de la Cruz, Tenerife. Prices 2021, official website, reviews, photos, videos, how to get there, hotels
Loro Parque is an amazing zoo located on the island of Tenerife, the largest of the Canary Islands. Loro Park in Tenerife was opened by businessman Wolfgang Kiesling on 17 December 1972 years, 3 kilometers from the city of Puerto de la Cruz and 150 meters from the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. The name of the park in Spanish means park of parrots and parrots were its first inhabitants. Over the years, the number of parrots has grown to the largest collection in the world of 4,000 birds, and besides them, numerous other animals have settled in the park.
Loro Park in Tenerife with an area of 13.5 hectares offers a penguinarium, a dolphinarium, an aquarium, a 3D cinema and many other entertainments included in the admission price. The killer whale show, which began to be presented to the general public in 2006, is unique in its kind. This kind of show is quite rare in the world, and it is undoubtedly a great pleasure to look at smart big killer whales.
The logo of the park is a red parrot, a blue dolphin and a black tail of a killer whale. The logo was changed after the appearance of killer whales in the zoo, and before it was only a parrot.
Loro Parque was founded by German-born Wolfgang Kiessling, together with his father. Previously working as a manager in an airline, Wolfgang visited the island of Tenerife with his wife and could not help but fall in love with the nature of these places, deciding for himself to stay permanently. After exploring the island and going to the beach, the question arose that I needed to do something. At that time, many solutions for starting a business were considered and it was decided to create a small and modest park of parrots, due to the small availability of funds and investments.
Wolfgang was looking for land to host a bird park in Tenerife, but at the time it was necessary to have a Spanish partner to make it official, which didn’t suit them. Then the notary offered them to buy a house and turn it into a hotel, and already in the hotel you can have some additional options, such as a park or a tennis court. A five-star hotel was created with only five rooms.
In 1972 the first show with birds is created, at that time it was the first show with parrots in Europe. Exceptional guests, politicians, film actors came to the hotel. A lot of money and efforts were spent on the hotel, without giving practically any profit, although the park brought more and more money each time, including even having to invest in the hotel from his earnings. At 19In 79, it was decided to close the hotel, as the laws had changed. Now the Kissling family lives in this house, located on the territory of Loro Park.
In 1995, the Kisslings saw fit to reinvest in the hospitality business by purchasing the award-winning Botanico y Oriental Spa Garden Hotel.
Soon, additional investments are made for the penguin pavilion, followed by one of the most expensive investments, the Orca Ocean complex for killer whales. By constantly investing and improving the business, Wolfgang improves the entertainment experience for travelers and locals arriving in Tenerife, making the island richer and more interesting, especially impressing our future generation, children. In 2008, one of the best water parks in Europe opens in the south, initially laying the Thai theme in its design, calling Siam a park, and this is the merit of the Kissling family.

Loro Parque is famous for its 4 interesting shows. Each performance takes place 4 times a day and lasts 20 minutes. All spectators who have taken places in the front rows are given capes and raincoats to protect themselves from the abundant splashes that fly from the water where the artists work.
Dolphin show
It is probably hard to surprise a modern person with a show with dolphins. But the performance in Loro is special. First of all, because of the most complex tricks, thought out to the smallest detail, skill and apparent ease with which the program numbers are performed. The performance involved both dolphins themselves and trainers in beautiful, comfortable costumes for performing tricks. During the show, a bright cockatoo periodically flies over the pool, which is also a participant in the performance.
Presentation of orcas
The killer whale is a magnificent mammal, wrongly called “killer whale”. They live in all oceans. This is a large animal, more than 6 meters long and weighing up to 5.5 tons. Calm, pensive in appearance, killer whales are smart, grateful and bring great joy to the visitors of the show. However, during the performance, the audience in the front rows will be doused with water from head to toe. The raincoat saves, but not much.
Sea Lion Show
The California Sea Lion Show takes place in the smallest pool. These lovely quick-witted “seals of the sea” will bring real pleasure to small and large spectators, will amuse with interesting tricks and real circus numbers. You will see funny scenes from life, dances, jumps and be surprised at the amazing interaction and understanding between animals and humans.

By car
If you have rented a car, getting to Loro Park is not difficult. Moreover, you can order a navigator during the rental or, as another alternative, use your smartphone with Google maps. To do this, you need to connect an inexpensive Internet connection so as not to use expensive roaming tariffs. Probably offers the most affordable prices. If you don’t have either, then ask for a map of the island from the car rental company or take it to the hotel reception, there are no problems with them. The shortest route runs along the western part of the island, along the new TF-1 expressway, and averages about 70 km (1 hour 10 minutes). There are no toll roads on the island, and there are not so many roads, we are mostly confused by interchanges. On the roads closer to the park you will be warned by signs to Loro Parque.
We offer you to rent a car from our website. Full insurance is included (without glasses), child seats, Russian-speaking employees, we deliver the car to the place and pick it up, a map of the island, a navigator. Rent a car
Taxi
Tenerife’s official taxi can be considered one of the expensive offers to get to the park from Playa de Las Americas. Convenient only if you are near the zoo. The cost in one direction will come out to you about 100 euros and the same amount will have to be paid for the return, especially since the tariffs include paid waiting, if you agree with him to go back. Tariffs can be found on the page Taxi in Tenerife.
Accidents
Killer whale jump There were also accidents that are still shrouded in mystery. All of them are connected with killer whales that attacked their trainers.
In 2007, orca Tekoa almost drowned her trainer Claudia Wohlhardt. After this incident, the trainers did not work in the water with killer whales for more than 6 months, and Tekoa was suspended from work altogether.
In the spring of 2009, the youngest killer whale Skyla dragged her pool coach and threw her overboard into the stands.
The worst and most mysterious tragedy happened on Christmas Day 2009. Kyto – the largest individual (born 1995) allegedly dragged his trainer Alex Martinez to the bottom of the 12-meter pool and inflicted injuries incompatible with life. “Supposedly” – because the management officially declared this case an accident. However, the investigation and autopsy showed that the trainer’s body showed clear signs of an animal attack (multiple fractures, abrasions, etc.). The coach did not die immediately, but on the way to the hospital. It is also suspicious that relatives were informed about the incident only an hour after the tragedy. There is a whole series of articles on the Internet about this, but no one really knows what happened. But after this incident, trainers no longer work with killer whales in the water. 9,00 €

Additional Services
In addition to entertainment, the following additional services are traditionally in demand:
smoking areas,
rental of baby carriages,
rental of wheelchairs for the disabled,
photo services,
organization of birthday celebrations and other holidays, conferences and other events.
The park is located on a mountain, so you will have to go up and down the paths more than once or twice. Take care of good and comfortable shoes before the trip.
Food on site is quite expensive. Take a couple of bottles of water with you, so as not to overpay at least for it. You can see the prices below.
Please arrive 15-20 minutes before the show starts. If you come in 5 minutes, then at best you will watch the show standing up, and at worst you will stay behind the gates, since the number of spectators at each show is limited by the number of seats.
It is better to approach killer whales 25-30 minutes before the start, as everyone goes to killer whales in the first place.
Where to eat
After intense walks, climbing rope ladders and squeals of joy under the splashes of water, you will inevitably want to eat. There are several cafes in the park that serve set meals. If you are traveling with a tour group, check if lunch is included in the price. Sometimes it is not included, but the guide on the spot orders set meals for those who wish (the group is served faster). Taking food with you from home is against the rules, but like in Siam Park, I did not see bags being checked. However, I wouldn’t risk it.
Cafes in the park are different: pizza, hamburgers, typical Canarian food (simple but hearty like meat with baked potatoes). On average, lunch costs 9-15 EUR per person. Next to the dining area in the cafe there is a closed area with a house, where, in fact, the owners of the park, the Kisling family, live.
Gift shop and goldfish
At the exit, full of impressions, you can once again look into the gorilla enclosure. Surely at the very beginning you wanted to see “everything-for-everything” and missed these handsome men. Nearby there will be a typical Thai pond with goldfish. The fish are large and cast red-gold. In the center of the pond is a sculpture of a goldfish with an open mouth. They say that if you throw a coin and get into the mouth of a fish, then the wish will come true. Believe it or not, I got it and my wish came true that evening!
There is a bell next to it, next to which there is an inscription saying that if you have done at least one good deed during the year, you can strike and your cherished wish will come true. Under the bell is a box where you can throw a coin if you wish. Well, many people hit the bell, but I myself didn’t find out about the box the first time :).
Nearby is a museum of porcelain parrots and a gift shop. Parrots in porcelain after living and colorful, to be honest, I don’t really want to look. Although the statues themselves are beautiful.
But the store is popular. Here you can buy T-shirts, sweatshirts, caps and backpacks with the image of the inhabitants of the park. Plush dolphins, killer whales and other inhabitants of Loro Park are also sold at a cost of 9.95 euros. If you didn’t buy something, but left the park, it doesn’t matter. In Siam Park, the souvenir shop duplicates the assortment, and the penguin not bought in Loro Park is quite a reason to get acquainted with one of the most famous water amusement parks.
Conclusion
To be honest, Tenerife abounds in natural and zoological parks: Jungle Park with eagles, a small Monkey Park specializing in lemurs and monkeys, and Amazonia with hummingbirds. However, perhaps the best among them I can call Loro Park.
There are quite good conditions for animals, a lot of wildlife, beautiful plants and mysterious corners, here you feel like in a real jungle and closer than ever to all this natural life. When visiting Tenerife, be sure to check out Loro Parque. You’ll like it!

Excursion Individual visit to Loro Park with a tour of its “behind the scenes” in Tenerife
Loro Park on the island of Tenerife is a unique place in all respects. There are few places where you will see such an extensive collection of animals and plants. In Loro Park there is the world’s largest penguinarium, a huge aquarium with colorful representatives of the underwater world. It is home to species of parrots that have not been preserved anywhere else. And, of course, you will enjoy the shows of Loro Parque, held at a high professional level. We will look behind the scenes of the park, where everyone else is not allowed to enter.

Loro Park has become home to many animals, sometimes completely different from each other: royal tigers and funny marmosets live here, important gorillas and cheerful chimpanzees, light cranes and beautiful flamingos. The colony of parrots is striking in its scale: about 4 thousand birds of 350 species live here. The chicks, which appear every year in the nurseries of the park, go to their place of residence in different parts of the world. Thus, Loro Park helps to restore the number of these rather rare birds.
What awaits you in Loro Parque:
Penguinarium . One of the biggest on the planet. The penguins feel at home thanks to the exactly reproduced conditions of their natural habitat: a huge amount of snow and very tasty fish;
Shows with fur seals, dolphins, killer whales and parrots. They take place several times a day, always different in format. In the front rows, there is a high risk of being doused from head to toe, so be sure to purchase a special cape;
Aquarium . Sharks will swim right over your head, and there is also a separate aquarium with jellyfish;
In addition, with our tour you will find yourself behind the scenes of the park and see how this huge organism functions from the inside. You will get acquainted with the conditions of keeping pets in the park: some tricks are practiced only here. We are talking about killer whales – they are difficult to breed in captivity. However, the animals feel great, as they are treated with attention and care;
You can also refresh yourself with wonderful local cuisine at Patio del Loro Grill Restaurant .
Attention! When ordering this excursion, a 30% discount on the entrance ticket to the Siam Park water amusement park is provided. You will be delighted with the Tower of Power slide, which is the height of a ten-story building, or the Singha slides, which can accelerate to 65 km / h.

The Canary Islands are the perfect destination for lovers of scuba diving. As these are volcanic islands, the topography of the Canaries consists largely of caves, caverns, reefs, canyons, drops of up to 1,000 metres and sunken ships that are waiting to be discovered. With an average annual temperature of 20 °C, the waters of the Canary Islands are warm. This, in turn, facilitates the existence of a wide variety of marine species. Doesn’t diving in Fuerteventura seem like the perfect plan with your friends?
Diving in Fuerteventura: get ready to have fun
Fuerteventura has many dive sites and diving centres, which are spread across the whole island. While it is renowned for being the Canary Island with the most spectacular beaches (with it being the closest to Africa, the sand comes directly from the Sahara Desert), its western coast is also worthy of highlighting: a paradise of cliffs and small coves, with wonderful rock formations.
Fuerteventura’s seabed is a mixture of tropical, Mediterranean and Atlantic habitats, home to over 390 marine species: groupers, parrotfishes, white seabreams, tunas, barracudas, barred hogfishes, red porgies, moray eels, manta rays, angelsharks and even the odd whale shark. Its rich fauna and, above all else, its crystal-clear waters—offering visibility of over 30 metres—make Fuerteventura a perfect diving destination.

Whether you’re just starting out or you’re already an expert, the diversity and wealth of this island’s dive sites allow you to explore the incredible underwater alcoves without any problems whatsoever. Due to the marine currents, some dive sites can only be accessed by experienced scuba divers. Don’t worry, however, as there are many different sites to choose from.
The Island of Lobos is a small island spanning 5 km2 that lies between Fuerteventura and Lanzarote. Its name comes from the monk seals, or ‘sea wolves’—as lobos means ‘wolves’ in Spanish—which previously inhabited the island. The Island of Lobos is a nature reserve with various converging currents, leading to huge diversity and optimum conditions for many different shoals of fish. The water is no deeper than 30 metres at any single point, with an average visibility of 20 metres. This area is famous amongst divers, owing to its volcanic overhangs and mushroom-shaped rocks, home to a vast range of different species. With over 20 dive sites, the Island of Lobos is one of the most spectacular and diverse areas in the Canary Islands. Some must-see sites include:
Diving in Fuerteventura
Cala Mareo: Stretching from Corralejo to the Island of Lobos. This is a 20-metre-deep vertical wall with a series of caves, caverns and passages. It’s not the deepest dive, making it suitable for divers of all abilities.
Lobos lighthouse: This 32-metre-deep reef, located opposite the lighthouse on the Island of Lobos, is home to large dusky groupers and various shoals of island groupers. As this dive site is deeper and exposed to strong currents, divers must hold the Advanced Open Water Diver licence.
La Lagunita: Just a 20-minute boat trip away, this 25-metre-deep dive site is brimming with different types of fish. It is home to gigantic dusky groupers and wahoo fish measuring up to two metres long, which can be found going in and out of the caves.
Bajón del Río: Located in the strait between Corralejo and the Island of Lobos, this reef has three rock formations rising out from the sandy seabed. This is one of the island’s most famous dive sites, with a depth of 18 metres. Dives are sometimes called off when there are strong currents. The flashes of lights between the rocks are truly stunning.
Marrajo: Located very close to the Island of Lobos, this is the perfect dive site for beginners as it is protected from wind and only measures 9 metres in depth. This reef is frequented by multiple shoals of fish, while offering perfect lighting conditions for lovers of underwater photography.

Seabed Image
Southern Fuerteventura boasts a perfect dive site for divers of all abilities: the Veril Grande, opposite the Jandía lighthouse. At 20 metres deep, you will start to see a vertical wall that drops to 40 metres below sea level. This is home to all kinds of species, such as garden eels, white seabreams, moray eels, stingrays and angelsharks. Sometimes, if you’re in luck, you may catch sight of whale sharks or devil rays.
The area of Las Salinas, close to the Playa del Castillo on the east coast of Fuerteventura, has a 25-metre-deep vertical wall with canyons, bridges and caves that reach as deep as 40 metres below sea level. Barracudas and amberjacks hunt in these waters, which is fantastic to watch.
El Jablito, located in northeast Fuerteventura, is no more than 15-metres-deep, making it the perfect site for novice divers. This area is home to a great number of fish, and can be accessed from the beach of the small fishing village. This peaceful location is the perfect spot for relaxing and enjoying yourself.
Diving centres: Corralejo, Caleta de Fuste and Jandía
The Corralejo area and the eastern coastline of Fuerteventura is where you’ll find most of the island’s diving centres. Each centre offers different diving activities, based on the ability and experience of the diver in question. These can range from free dives to Open Water, Advanced Open Water and Dive Master courses. Below is a list of some of the diving centres where you can start your adventure:
Abyss: Located in Corralejo. This centre offers safe dives in small groups, for which a medical certificate is required.
Punta Amanay: Located in the quay of Corralejo. This centre offers professional facilities and equipment, with a small boat that can be used for reduced groups.
Deep Blue Diving: Located in the quay of Caleta de Fuste in eastern Fuerteventura, this centre is perfect for dives in this part of the island.
Fuerteventura Diving: Found in the Esquinzo area of the Jandía peninsula, this centre offers dives for groups of up to four people. The equipment provided is of a fantastic quality.
If you’ve never dived before and fancy giving it a go, Fuerteventura is the perfect place to learn how to do it. It’s also great for experienced divers, who will be blown away by the wealth of beautiful marine creatures and fantastic rock formations of the Fuerteventura seabed.

Diving Canary Islands – The no 1 dive site in each of the 7 Canary Islands
Message on WhatsApp here
With countless days of sunshine, stunning rock formations, and golden beaches the Canary Islands are quickly becoming the ‘’go to destination’’ for holiday makers and divers alike. The geographical location of the Canary Islands next to the African Coast ensure the weather stays constant all year round and you can go scuba diving 365 days a year!
The Canary Islands are an archipelago (which means a group of islands) and they are located in the North Atlantic ocean. They are a part of Spain but they have their own laws and are made up of seven predominant islands. The Canary Islands were formed by volcanic eruptions, and with this being said it makes for some pretty incredible scuba diving!
So, why should you scuba dive in the Canary Islands?
The volcanic eruptions have created breath taking topography creating a labyrinth of caves, arches and caverns.
Warm sub-tropical climate. The water temperature ranges from 16-26 degrees in the summer months.
Marine life ranging from small colorful Nudibranchs to majestic Manta Rays, Sharks and Dolphins.
Crystal clear waters with visibility often reaching 30 + meters.
So let’s take a look at the number 1 dive site in each of the Canary Islands and you can get booking your plane tickets!
What criteria did we use to decide the number one dive site in each island?
We reached out to many different dive centers and experienced divers who love to dive the Canary Islands in order to gain their opinion on what they believe to be the number one dive site on each of the Canary Islands.
We looked at different reviews of each dive site to make sure our selection was validated by the opinions of non biased clients.

GRAN CANARIA
Gran Canaria is often referred to as the “Miniature Continent,” as it boasts a large diversity in it’s landscape. You can enjoy long golden beaches in the South of the island and dense pine forests on the West coast.
The number 1 dive site of Gran Canaria – El Cabron
El Cabron is only one of three Marine Reserves in the Canary Islands. Located on the East Coast of Gran Canaria, it was voted as one of the top ten dive sites in Europe. The rocky and rugged terrain combined with the underwater volcanic landscape and average water temperature of 20 degrees is why El Cabron deserves a spot on the list.
In 2006 El Cabron was declared a site of special scientific interest and given the title ‘’Marine Reserve.’’ This title prohibits fishing, boating or invasive activities such as mining from taking place. With this said, it is believed that the biomass of fish species living in Marine Reserves increases by 450% and this is certainly the case with divers frequently being able to spot giant Stingrays and Angel Sharks.
The site is comprised of many different entry points and routes, meaning you will need to spend a few days here to enjoy everything that this dive site has to offer. The most famous dive routes include Punta de La Monja and the Table top. The rocky entry points mean that this dive site is best suited for more experienced certified divers.
Lanzarote
Situated just 70 miles off the coast of Africa, Lanzarote is the youngest of the seven Canary islands and the fourth largest in size. It is home to stunning volcanic rock formations, but what do we think is the number one dive site in Lanzarote?
The number 1 dive site of Lanzarote – The Underwater Museum
Lanzarote is home to Europe’s only underwater sculpture museum! The underwater museum was created in order to promote education and protect the natural environment. Each installation was created from environmentally friendly resources in order to promote and sustain new ecosystems. The stunning underwater display combined with the educational foundation behind the creation is why the underwater museum is the number one dive site in Lanzarote. Jason deCaires Taylor created 300 life size human figures ranging over 2,500 square meters. At a depth of only 12 meters this dive site is open to all levels of certified scuba divers and even Discover Scuba divers!
The first of its kind in Europe and already populated by many varieties of flora and fauna, the underwater museum in Lanzarote is guaranteed to delight both novice and the more experienced diver.
If you would like to book a dive in The underwater museum please get in contact with Rachel the owner of Manta diving Lanzarote
Tenerife
Tenerife is the largest and most populated Canary Island. It also boasts the highest mountain in Spain – Mount Teide. A go to destination for those looking for a week in the sun, but what is it like to dive Tenerife?
The number 1 dive site of Tenerife – Los Chuchos
One of the most famous dives in Tenerife is Los Chuchos which translates to English simply as ‘’Rays.’’ The name itself is a big clue as to why it is a favorite among divers and why this dive site has made it to this list! The dive site is situated near the southern town Las Galletas and the depth ranges from 17-21 meters, making it accessible for most divers with recent experience. Los Chuchos allows you to observe Stingrays in their natural environment and marvel at the beauty of the underwater world and those that inhabit it. Many local dive centers feed the Rays allowing you to get up close and personal with them. (We will let you make up your mind as to whether you think its right to feed them or not!)
You can spot as many as six different species of Ray in one dive with the Rays growing as large as 2.5 meters in length! It is no wonder why the locals refer to this dive site as the ‘’Stingray village.’’ As if this wasn’t enough, nearby there is a small wreck which you can visit on the same dive.
If you would like to dive Los Chuchos get in contact with Chris and Sarah owners of Diving Tenerife Scuba
Fuertaventura
Fuerteventura is the second largest Canary Island and is known for being the windiest! It is one of the least developed Canary Islands but that doesnt mean it isn’t home to some fantastic dive sites.
The number 1 dive site of Fuertaventura – Salinas reef
Unlike most dive sites on the Canary Islands Salinas Reef located South of the airport in Fuerteventura is composed purely of a rocky bottom composition. The 1.5 Kilometer rocky reef is home to twelve different dive sites so, similar to El Cabron in Gran Canaria you will need several days or a minimum of a two tank dive to explore Salinas reef in all its glory
The beautiful volcanic rock formation is highly vegetated allowing a wide variety of marine life to flourish including Nudibranchs, Spider Crabs, Groupers and Parrotfish. There is also the chance to see Black coral and red gorgonians (soft coral). Do you want to know the best thing? This dive site is accessible for all levels of certification and experience level, ensuring it is a ‘’must see’’ for seasoned professionals and those looking to try scuba diving for the first time.
With steep cliff walls, caves, arches, caverns and a diverse array of marine life if you are visiting Fuerteventura, scuba diving Salinas Reef is a must.
If you would like to book a dive in Salinas Reef get in contact with Deep Blue Diving Fuerteventura
La Palma
The island La Palma is not as heavily populated with tourists as some of the other Canary Islands, however this certainly isn’t because La Palma is a less desirable holiday destination. In fact, it’s far from the truth with La Palma being home to some of the most stunning scenery in Europe. Commonly referred to as the ‘’wild beauty of the Canaries’’ if you are looking for a relaxing holiday and some super awesome scuba diving then the dive site Las Cabras in La Palma is the dive site for you.
The number 1 dive site of La Palma – Las Cabras
The dive site Las Cabras is located on the Southern end of the island and you will enter the water in a small bay via the beach. Upon entering you shall descend and follow the incredible lava tubes down to depths of 30 to 40 meters. The topography of this dive site means that in places you can reach the limit of recreational diving quite quickly, combine this was the possibility of strong currents this dive site is recommended for experienced certified divers who are comfortable with deeper dives.
At a depth of 30 meters you will be greeted with breathtaking black coral and it is common to come across devil Manta Rays. Stunning underwater landscape with vertically sloping walls and jaw dropping rock formations Las Cabras certainly deserves a spot as one of the top dive sites in the Canary Islands.
If you would like to dive in Las Cabras get in contact with La Palma Diving
La Gomera
La Gomera is the second least populated island, with a little over 20.000 people, it is only accesible via Tenerife, so is it worth the the visit? After researching the number 1 dive site in La Gomera, we can confirm that it is!
The number 1 dive site of La Gomera – Punta Guincho
The third smallest island La Palma is the Northernmost Canary Island. The close proximity to the Canary Islands stream ensures that the average water temperature is approximately 2 degrees more than the rest of the Canary Islands. The average is between 23 to 24 degrees with the water temperature reaching a tropical 26 degrees in the summer months! After much research into the different dive sites on La Palma (there is over 20 of them!) The most famous dive site on La Palma has to be Punta Guincho. The underwater landscape is made up of of large volcanic rock formations, all of which are home to Anemones, Crabs, Moray eels and Nudibranchs. But what makes this dive site stand out, is the volcanic arch situated at 20 meters in depth full of subtropical species of fish including Trumpet fish, Damselfish, Electric Rays and Parrot fish.
If you would like to dive in Punta Guincho please get in contact with Splash Gomera
El Hierro
El Hierro island is the smallest of the Canary Islands. The island is declared as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve with 60% of the island being protected for conservation purposes. Upon reaching out to fellow scuba diving enthusiasts it was easy to see that many believe El Hierro offers the best diving on the Canary Islands. Many divers have been fortunate to spot Manta Rays and different species of Sharks which aren’t common in the other six main Canary Islands.
The number 1 dive site of El Hierro – El Bajón
El Bajon is the most famous dive site in El Hierro, and with a vertical cliff that drops down to the crystal clear blue depths of 100 meters it is easy to see why! Located at the Southern tip of the island by the fishing town of La Restinga this dive site allows you to be engulfed in the prolific amount of marine life that inhabit the underwater world of El Hierro.
Many local dive center owners say that you can observe all the species of the island in this one dive site, including the occasional visit from Manta Rays and Whale Sharks. Because divers get the opportunity to spot marine life such as rare Sharks, Dolphins and devil Manta Rays, this confirms that diving in El Bajon is world class diving on your doorstep.
The rock formation in the dive site El Bajon was created by volcanic activity and this has forged, caves, tunnels and arches all waiting to be explored. Be sure to bring your torch because within the crevasses you often find Moray eels, Lobster and Octopus.
You can expect excellent visibility all year round in El Bajon, with the visibility rarely dropping below thirty meters. So what are you waiting for, go and explore the beautiful island of El Hierro and the stunning underwater world of El Bajon.
If you would like to dive in El Bajon get in contact with Alexis owner of The Green Shark the only PADI 5 star centre on the island!
Summary
Although diving in the Canary Islands is not as tropical or full of prolific marine life which you can expect to see in the Red sea, the water is mild all year round with excellent water clarity and stunning volcanic rock formations. Nearly 700 species of fishes have been catalogued in the waters of the Canary Islands and even in El Hierro you can spot Whale sharks and Manta rays! As these selection of dive sites have shown, you do not need to travel far to experience excellent diving within Europe.
So there you have it, the number one dive site in each the seven main Canary islands, all of which should definitely be on your bucket list. But be quick, more and more divers are coming to realize just how special diving in the Canary Islands is.

Diving in Fuerteventura (Morro Jable) Canary Islands

WHERE ARE WE GOING?
Today we are diving in Fuerteventura from Morro Jable. The town of Morro Jable is located on the south coast of Fuerteventura Island. Fuerteventura is the second largest of Spain’s Canary Islands which are located off the north coast of Africa.
Read More: Diving in Tenerife, the largest of Spain’s Canary Islands.
WHY ARE WE DIVING IN FUERTEVENTURA?
Fuerteventura is famous for its long, beautiful, and pristine beaches. You will often find people practicing kite and wind-surfing here. Fuerteventura has a laid back atmosphere with plenty of resorts, bars, and restaurants to chill out from a day of sports.
The diving in Fuerteventura is great all year round. Morro Jable, which is located in the south of the island is a great base to start from. Dive boats leave from Morro Jable Harbour, which is also the connection ferry port to Gran Canaria.
The dive sites are only 5 minutes away and most of the time the ride is easy. The boat will often border the coastline until you get to the famous lighthouse of Jandia.A grouper posing at the Big Drop-off. Photo by Espe Kanela.
HOW DO WE GET THERE?
To get to Fuerteventura there is a direct flight from Madrid or other main European cities. The Fuerteventura Airport (FUE) is about one hour away to Morro Jable in a rental car.
Hiring a car is a great option as it also allows you to explore the wild beaches of Fuerteventura after a day of diving. However, you can also pre-book a tourist bus that will take you to the door of your hotel. There are also taxis available which will be a bit expensive.
Another option is to fly to the neighboring island, Gran Canaria, and spend a couple of days there. From there you can then cross over on the ferry which takes about 2 hours.
WHICH DIVE SITES ARE MUST-SEE?
Small Drop-off
My favorite Dive Site is the Small Drop off. It may be small but it is rather deep, as it varies from 15-30 meters (50-100 feet). I love this dive site because of the abundance of groupers of all sizes. You will find groupers sleeping on the sand, and others watching out over the reef. Some of the groupers will even come and ask you to be petted during your dive. It is superb.
Big Drop-off
Another great site is Big Drop-off. This is in fact a bit shallower and will usually be the second dive of the day. You will descend down to a beautiful rocky reef about 15m / 50ft deep, and most of the action happens there. There are plenty of moray eels in the cracks, and again, lots of groupers. If you look over the reef the views beyond the depth are breathtaking. Very often you find schools of tuna, amberjacks, and specimens of the endangered species; the angelshark. These lay on the sand and are a challenge to be spotted!
Canyon
My third favorite when diving in Fuerteventura is the Canyon. It is a shallow dive, taking place at a depth of mostly 10m / 32ft. The underwater path is covered in palythoa coral that takes you to an arch. Here you will often find surprises; Canarian lobster, morays, red glassfish in big groups, trumpet fish everywhere, and of course, the groupers.
TELL ME MORE
The boat of the local operator, Fuerteventura Buceo, is a vessel well equipped for a good group of divers. It is comfortable, well organized and clearly, safety comes first.
The staff was really professional, friendly, and highly accommodating with me. As an underwater photographer, I was given a bit of space and time underwater to get my photos. The highly experienced guides would still keep an eye out for me which was highly appreciated. They are also involved in marine conservation duties and scientific research, joining the local Angelshark Project.Curious moray eel in the Canyon. Photo by Espe Kanela.
DO I NEED ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT?
In the summer months of July, August, and September, the water temperature will be around 24°C (75°F). This means a 5mm wetsuit is ideal.
In the winter months, December, January, and February, you may prefer to wear a 7mm wetsuit as the temperature drops to about 17°C (62°F).
Read More: Follow our Wetsuit Temperature Guide for Scuba Diving.
I also recommend diving with a torch, especially to discover the cute inhabitants in the cracks of the dive sites. If you don’t have your own gear, any good dive center will be able to provide you with any piece of equipment.
WHAT LEVEL CERTIFICATION SHOULD I BE?
Fuerteventura and the Canary Islands are a great place to experience diving for the first time or to even get your Open Water diving certification. It is also an amazing destination to gain more diving experience and to get more certifications.
Read More: How Long Does it Take to get Scuba Certified?
The dive sites in Fuerteventura are a must for wide-angle photographers, as it is possibly the best breeding place for groupers in the Canaries. The volcanic scenery is also superb and gives you some very good photo opportunities.
If you are doing a try dive for the first time, then these beginner dives will take place from the shore. This gives you plenty of opportunities to also see angelshark babies and juveniles!
WHAT ARE THE CONDITIONS?
The diving in Fuerteventura is great as you can have easy dives that can be adapted to the level of the divers, as there is plenty to see at all depths.
Usually, there are no currents or the current is mild. The visibility varies from 10 to 30 meters (32 – 100 feet). The conditions are good and there are no major differences in the seasons as there are wildlife and things to see all year-round.
The boat ride to the dive sites is usually uneventful, and only minutes away. You may face a bit of wind, which is common in Fuerteventura, and also the reason why this island attracts so many kite and windsurfers.Fish hiding out by the Arch at the Canyon. Photo by Espe Kanela.
HOW MUCH WILL I SPEND?
It is around 40 Euros a dive. The price will vary depending on the number of dives, how many people are in your group, and whether you need to rent gear.
WHAT TYPE OF ACCOMMODATION IS AVAILABLE?
In Morro Jable, you have accommodation for all budgets. From hostels to big chain resorts, and private apartments, with some of them right opposite the marina. I would say prices start at 50 Euros the night for a double bedroom or small apartment.
DESCRIBE YOUR PERSONAL EXPERIENCE
For me the experience was outstanding. I love places where they take care of you, remember your name, and understand your needs and profile as a diver. As a photographer they couldn’t be more helpful; finding critters, giving me tips, helping with my gear in the boat, etc.
All of the divers were given a great experience according to their level in a really safe environment. This is the main priority for me. That, and meeting all of those photogenic groupers, some of which were very friendly!
From traveling all over the world and my experience with dive operations, the Fuerteventura Buceo was probably the dive center with the best quality dive gear that I have used. They have very high standards.
WHAT DO WE DO ON SURFACE INTERVALS?
Surface intervals on Fuerteventura were mostly spent relaxing by the beach or having a beer at a local bar to watch the sunset. There is some great hiking not too far away. There is also a turtle sanctuary in the harbor itself. Fuerteventura is a very relaxing place to enjoy the best beaches in the Canary Islands. Kitesurfing and windsurfing are great activities to check out here too.

An underwater sanctuary in the south of Fuerteventura
If you’re planning your trip to Fuerteventura and want to discover the underwater wonders of the island, a visit to Veril Grande is a must. Located in the south of the island, opposite the Jandía lighthouse, this spectacular area is ideal for divers of all levels.
Considered one of the best underwater sanctuaries on the island, its crystal-clear waters and white sand make it the perfect place to enjoy the marine diversity of the Canary Islands. On your dive, you will discover local fauna such as bream, black moray eels, stingrays and angel sharks. If you’re lucky, this area is also good for spotting whale sharks and the famous devil rays.
To do this dive, you have to take a boat and sail about 200 metres away from the beach. The main wall of Veril Grande is located at a depth of 20 metres, dropping vertically to a depth of 40 metres. Depending on the experience of the diver, different types of dive are possible, either exploring the wall itself or the caves within it.

Scuba Diving
“Find here the latest information about Scuba Diving, Dive Excursions and PADI, CMAS, CEDIP, NAUI & BARAKUDA Courses – Fuerteventura. Find here the complete list of Scuba Dive Centres on Fuerteventura.“
Diving on Fuerteventura is one of the most impressive and relaxing activities one can experience. Professional dive instructors/dive masters from a dive school or centre will guide you. Most dive bases have boats, supply full equipment and provide interesting information about marine life. You can get lessons to your next level or speciality courses. Most schools follow the PADI system but other training systems like CMAS, CEDIP, NAUI & BARAKUDA are also available. Some centres have the possibility to experience Nitrox diving. Safety gets the highest priority.
The most interesting dive spots in the South of Fuerteventura are close to the Jandia lighthouse. The famous “Moray Eel Riff” is about 150m out of the coast and can be visited from the shore or from a boat, the latter being somewhat more comfortable. The plateau is at 14m depth and slides down to a 30m. This location is home to Black Breams, Mackerels, Barracudas, Sting Rays and occasionally to Angel Sharks and Turtles… and of course to the Moray Eel. A bit more to the South and close to shore is the “Small Moray Eel Riff” which starts at about 6m depth and has the same fish population as its big brother. The appearance of this riff is constantly changing due to the current, caused by the tides. A third interesting dive location is the outside of the commercial harbour. One could call this location “the breeding chamber of the riff”. Abundant supply of food has made this spot one of the most popular dive places. Besides the high fish population you can watch young fish and some permanent residents like Rays and Turtles. The Ocean World Team.

What to expect on a Canary Islands Liveaboard Liveaboard
Boats offer a relaxing journey through the incredible landscapes of the volcanic islands that make up the Canaries archipelago.
Most diving safaris start from Tenerife, an island with a long coastline and a diverse coastal landscape with long volcanic beaches, picturesque cliffs and underwater sheer walls.
A diving safari in Tenerife reveals to passengers the hidden gems of the archipelago, which can only be reached by boat. Sailing at the “Giants” – the famous rock formation in the west of the island – is unforgettable.
Although the Canary Islands are a tourist destination, a dive safari will show passengers not only famous dive sites, but also remote small islands and secret dive sites.
There are also sparsely populated areas in the Canary Islands. The island of La Gomera is very popular with divers. After all, there is not only an abundance of marine life under water, but also a unique culture and incredible beauty of nature on the island itself.
Liveaboards in the Canary Islands give guests the chance to explore the misty forests and amazing landscapes of the Garajonay.
The underwater world of the Canary Islands
The seas around the Canary Islands Tenerife and La Gomera are home to a variety of marine creatures. In addition, it is here that you can see the impressive beauty of volcanic reliefs.
The topography of the Canary Islands ranges from unique cave complexes to the Giant’s Path underwater dam.
Numerous shipwrecks along the entire coast are perfectly preserved thanks to favorable conditions and ocean water.
You can also see a lot of sunken artificial reefs here – this is the merit of local universities researching the environmental benefits of diving a variety of objects. You can choose from disabled ships, unusually shaped concrete pieces, and many other atypical details.
The Canary Islands have a Mediterranean climate for most of the year and underwater visibility is up to 30 meters, although water temperatures can drop below 20 degrees in winter.
Undercurrents get stronger in summer, but dive safari boats can easily cope with natural phenomena and offer passengers an exciting drift diving experience when the currents are strong.
Currents are favorable for observing the underwater world. Schools of big fish, giant rays, angelfish and green turtles come out of the shade to get the most of the nutrients brought by the currents.
Canaries Dive Sites
Divers looking to explore the incredible underwater landscape will be delighted with the choice of dive sites available on board a liveaboard.
It is in Tenerife that the incredible La Catedral is located. This colossal volcanic formation consists of cave and arch complexes with an abundance of fish, lobsters and moray eels.
Yellow Mountain (La Montana Amarilla) is another popular place with volcanic scenery where divers have the opportunity to make unforgettable dives during liveaboards. Waves and yellow volcanic ash have created a unique underwater “lunar” landscape with plateaus, caves and sharp peaks for through swimming.
Wreck lovers will be interested in visiting Tabaiba, which was sunk and is now considered an artificial reef, and Condesito, which sank unintentionally in an underwater canyon in the 1970s.
Both vessels are very large and are home to schools of white roncadores, as well as octopuses and an unusual species of whistlefish.
Diving safaris on the island of Gomera emphasize the richness of the underwater world, which is too great for such a small island.
La Gomera, one of the most remote parts of the archipelago, has many diving sites with an abundance of marine life and, in particular, the largest variety of stingrays in the Canary Islands.
Punta Espino, near the port of Playa Santiago, is another great spot for stingrays. Winged rays, stingrays, bracken – all these marine life can be found here, taking advantage of the fact that local fishermen throw tasty fish waste into the sea.
If your goal is to see schools of large fish and dive into the amazing macro world, Roque del Herrero is the place to meet barracuda, octopuses and lobsters in one place.
Along the entire coast of La Gomera and around Tenerife, divers have the chance to meet one of the most interesting and beloved inhabitants of the islands, the turtle, during a diving safari.
Turtles can be seen at many dive sites and are usually friendly as they are accustomed to divers and are not afraid of them.
Tips and advice for divers
Despite mostly sunny weather, the water around Tenerife and Gomera can vary significantly in temperature from season to season.
Temperatures can exceed 25 degrees in summer and drop to 17 in winter. Check the weather forecast before getting ready to go.
Although the currents are not that strong by divers’ standards, it is worth remembering that the Canary Islands are located in the ocean and therefore drift diving can be done here if desired and skillful.
How to get to the Canary Islands
The popularity of the Canary Islands as a tourist resort has made getting here easy and inexpensive.
Flights to the main airport of Tenerife – Tenerife South – are carried out from many major cities in Europe.
Flights from other cities are possible with connections in Madrid or London. You can also get to Tenerife from neighboring islands.
Gran Canaria, Lanzarote and Fuerteventura are connected by domestic flights and ferries.
La Gomera can be reached by domestic flight from Tenerife North Airport or by ferry from Santa Cruz.
Gomera Airport is quite small, so planes fly here only from Tenerife, and there is no international connection.
Most Canary Island dive safaris start from Tenerife and end there.

We will tell you about all the most beautiful dive sites in Tenerife! The Atlantic Ocean around the Canary Islands is a special underwater world with extraordinary inhabitants, very high transparency and a lot of interesting places to dive!
[notification type=”alert-success” close=”false” ]The Canary Islands are not just a lot of good spots for divers, but also an entire underwater reserve around the island of El Hierro![/notification]
Tenerife has never been known as a mecca for divers, which is sad. There are many amazing places on the seabed near Tenerife worthy of being explored. Here you can see very beautiful underwater landscapes, flocks of stingrays with the amazing name “angelfish”, very curious Atlantic rays, large turtles and giant octopuses.
The best months for diving in Tenerife are May, June, September and November. Sea cats, stingrays, moray eels, octopuses and cuttlefish can be observed in these places all year round, but only in winter, angel sharks can be found at some dive spots.
If you already have a certificate, you can choose where you want to buddy dive.
The best dive sites in Tenerife and the Canary Islands are collected on this page!
Dive site “Gemini”. Diving to two sunken ships.
The wreck of the El Condesito. The Condesito Dive Spot is extremely pleasant for diving. It is located in the Raska area, the maximum depth here is 20 meters. Ideal for beginner divers. Descending along a single wall covered in stunning basalt prisms representing hundreds of prismatic columns. Just imagine a giant road under water! Here you can see parrot fish, octopuses and other inhabitants of the Atlantic before continuing on to the El Condesito wreck. There are many theories about the causes of the shipwreck and the date of the accident. Some are sure that the crash occurred on December 25, 1971, others on January 1, 1972. It is believed that the captain and crew were too busy celebrating by putting the ship on autopilot, which led to the disaster. It is not known for certain whether there were victims of what happened, because the cockpits and the engine room remained intact, which makes this ship very attractive to divers.
Several study sites near Las Galletas.
Tabaiba. Close to Los Cristianos. Diving to the sunken ship.
Wall in Palmar Here is an incredibly pleasant sandy bottom. Each dive promises to meet a large number of representatives of the fauna typical of the Canary Islands. The maximum depth in Palmara reaches 24 meters. Both novice divers and more experienced divers can dive here.
Famous diving spot Mushrooms.
Playa Paraiso
Moray eel cave Stunning canyon with a cave full of amazing representatives of the Atlantic fauna. You can see tiger and black moray eel, black stingray. The depth of the cave is about 30 meters, and is intended exclusively for advanced divers.
Las Eras
Dive site near the town of Garachico in the north.
Los Chuchos is one of the most famous diving spots in Tenerife. Here you can swim with stingrays, eels and moray eels.
Marazul
Ali Baba Cave
Coral arches
Training spot in El Puertito. It is easy to learn here and also have fun swimming with turtles.
Octopus Cave
La Caleta A special dive site with a large reef with large schools of golden bream and prostipoma. The dive spot is located off Costa Adeje, with a depth of 20 meters, which makes it ideal for beginner divers, although experienced deep-water lovers will appreciate all the delights of diving.
Montana Amarilla near the town of Costa del Silencio.
[notification type=”alert-info” close=”false” ]Choosing the right diving training center is always extremely important. A good diving center always has a range of services from the professional association of diving instructors and courses from the international school SCUBA for recreational diving and scuba diving. It is possible to teach the basic basics of diving and gain advanced skills, as well as obtaining an international certificate “diving instructor”. [/notification]
Here you can sign up for PADI (Open Water Diver and Advanced Open Water Diver) diving courses with the best Russian-speaking instructors in Tenerife. Just fill out this form and get ready for an unforgettable dive.

Year round immersion
Diving in Tenerife lasts 12 months, but a particularly pleasant climate and calm ocean await you almost all the time, but some nuances should be taken into account:
It rains in December, the temperature drops to +20⁰С, at this time there are winds that cause strong waves, so a long dive is not recommended.
January is characterized by a mild climate, but strong winds are also possible, which provoke waves on the surface of the ocean, which makes it difficult to stay under water.
The weather in Tenerife in March can be spoiled by a weather phenomenon called Kalima or haze, which inflates sand from the Sahara, visibility becomes much worse, which worsens visibility even at depth.
In October the days get shorter, so take this into account when diving.
This island of volcanic origin is considered one of the most beautiful and comfortable places for scuba diving.

Some of the best boat dives in Tenerife are from the picturesque port of Las Galletas in the south of the island. This fishing village enjoys warm, sunny weather all year round. Most of the boats in the port are for water sports. For divers, this is a special place, because next to the port of Las Gaietas there are famous dive sites with a rich and diverse underwater life. We present to you our favorite dive sites that we sail on the zodiac boat from the port of Las Gaietas.
The most popular dive site near Las Gaietas is called “Los Chuchos” which means “stingrays” in Spanish. The title already tells the reader that the main interest of this dive is to watch the stingrays, which perform a kind of “ballet” in front of the divers. You have the opportunity to swim alongside these amazing creatures as they swim up to divers out of curiosity. Of course, there are also many other fish and animals, such as flute fish, cuttlefish, moray eels, crabs, sea bream, angel sharks, octopuses and many others. The underwater fauna is so impressive that you don’t know where to look, because schools of fish surround you from all sides. In addition, there is a small sunken ship nearby, which can be reached under good water conditions. This fishing boat attracts a lot of marine life. Here you can see eels, cuttlefish, scorpion fish, sea spiders, etc. Since the average depth of this site is 15-21 meters, both experienced divers and beginners of the Open Water Diver level can dive here.
Another interesting dive site is the Condesito wreck. This ship sank in 1972 while transporting cement bales for the construction of Los Cristianos. Now the ship lies at the bottom of the gorge at a depth of 18-21 meters. Nearby there is a platform at 6 meters deep, so even novice divers can discover this dive site. Around are rock formations of the most bizarre forms that divers explore with pleasure. Aboard the ship, sunken cement bales hardened into massive boulders that looked like rocks. In addition, you can see the engine room, the hall and the captain’s cabin. However, divers should be careful when diving on the wreck el Condesito, as over time it collapses and its structure loses its strength. Experienced divers can swim away from the ship and descend up to 40 meters along the vertical wall. During the dive, flute fish, starfish, moray eels, stingrays, barracudas, octopuses and other marine animals are found here.
The next and no less interesting dive site is the Palmmara wall. This site is quite far from the port, but the long walk is worth it as a wide variety of marine life awaits you here. Near Palmmar are fish farms that attract dolphins that hunt the fish that escape the farms. This enables divers to encounter these mammals on their way to the dive site. Swimming with dolphins is not allowed so we cannot dive near the fish farms. Many other animals also live in Palmmara. Typically, we descend along a vertical wall and, reaching the sandy bottom at a depth of about 25 meters, we find ourselves in a place where various species of rays, flute fish, crabs, barracudas, cuttlefish and endangered angel sharks live. This dive site is also worth a visit because here divers have the opportunity to meet one of the most graceful animals of the Canary Islands: turtles.

October 2016 was my first visit here since March 2014. This time I ate there on two consecutive evenings. There are just over thirty covers but on both evenings only four people dining – myself and the same couple with a child. This contrasted with my experience two years ago when the place was very lively. The food is good quality but the proprietor (Mario) has clearly pared down on staff and so there is a wait for his personal attention. I had supa de marisco and gambas con ajillo as starters with a goodly portion of fresh fish as the main course. All came nicely prepared and were a joy to eat. My one criticism was the wait at the end of the evening. It seemed to take a very long time to prepare Cafe Americano and to deliver the final bill. This is a sole proprietor making valiant efforts to survive in the capital town of his home island (having Agulo as his earlier locale). I do not know is the rundown in economic activity relates just to his place or more widely on La Gomera or the Canary Islands generally. I would hope that travellers can support these home-grown enterprises. Other reviewers have mentioned the place being full or nearly so – perhaps I chose the wrong two nights. The regular ferry service between El Hierro (my home) and La Gomera has been withdrawn and so I will need to await the next “special timetable” to make my next visit.

I expected much more from a restaurant like this. There was neither music nor WiFi. No salt and pepper on the table. The service seemed to be stressed and not very friendly. White wine “blanco afrutado” was only by bottle; they have forgotten my starter; the desert was with red fruits instead of advertised fig confit and typical “Gomeran” biscuit. .. The food was mediocre, the prices for the portions rather high. An experience I don’t have to repeat.

Everyone we spoke to said this was the one restaurant to visit so against our better judgement we booked an evening meal. First impessisons were the total lack of ambience. The staff were just trying too hard and it didn’t come off. Having said that however, my wife’s rissotto was apparently absolutely delicious. The two fresh fish I was offered were what I’d eaten elsewhere so I chose the lemon sole; big mistake. The texture of the fish and the flavour were most peculiar and this was confirmed when I was woken in the night with griping stomach pains. I think ‘been there dunnit’ is the phrase. Not again.

The Cress soup for starter was very good but the main dish (octopud salad) was a bit disappointing. The octopus way “chewy” and the promised mango was replaced by apples.

Arrived on the island mid afternoon, siesta time! The owner was more than happy to serve me a hot meal even though they were nearly ready to close for siesta. The seafood was amazing, the salad one of the freshest I’ve eaten in a long time. Even more of a bonus it’s opposite my hotel.
There is much to see in La Gomera to enjoy with all five senses, not only in terms of the natural treasures it houses but also in terms of its gastronomy. An authentic and diverse cuisine in its ingredients that is reflected in the character of its dishes.
Enjoying the local gastronomy is another way to do tourism on the island and to understand its culture. There are options for all tastes and pockets. If you want to spend a pleasant time tasting the genuine Gomeran food, check out these 10 restaurants in La Gomera that will turn your getaway into a memorable experience.
1. Feel like one of the locals in Gastro-Tasca Estadio
This restaurant located in the municipality of Hermigua is a charming place to sit down to eat and take a break on your route, especially if you come from hiking around the island.

The almogrote: It is a kind of pate of aged cheese and mojo canario, slightly spicy that is very tasty as its texture melts in the mouth. Perfect as an appetizer to enjoy it spread on bread and with a glass of Gomeran wine.
Papas arrugadas: It is the star dish of the Canary Islands made with boiled and unpeeled potatoes served as a tapa or as an accompaniment to a meat or fish dish with the traditional sauces of mojo picón and mojo verde.
Watercress stew: A simple but very tasty stew that everyone likes. Eating it in winter is wonderful. It comes with or without meat (pork ribs), corn and accompanied by a little gofio, an essential ingredient in Canarian cuisine.
Gofio escaldado: It is actually a typical dish of Tenerife, which is prepared with great art in La Gomera and tastes great. It is made with meat or fish broth over which gofio is poured and then kneaded. You can add extra pork ribs, green mojo or onion to transform it into a main dish as it is usually served as a starter.
Guarapo: some dishes such as fried eggplants are seasoned with guarapo, the sweet sage extracted from the Canary Island palm tree and reminiscent of honey. It can also be used on meats and the result is delicious.
Torta de vilana: It is a typical dessert from La Gomera, which has a texture between pudding and sponge cake made with potatoes, almonds and raisins, among other ingredients. It is very appetizing!
Gofio mousse: It is a simple dessert made with gofio, almonds and guarapo that will delight the sweet tooth. Try it!
How much budget do you need to eat in La Gomera approximately?
In La Gomera you will find options adapted to all budgets to eat. Depending on what you are looking for you can go to fast food restaurants where you can order for less than 10 €, go to tapas bars where you can eat portions for less than 20 € or even in hotels for which you may need a larger budget.
Lunch, dinner and restaurant opening hours in La Gomera
Regarding meal times in La Gomera, they are generally no different from other times on the mainland. Meals take place between 1PM and 3 PM while dinners are between 8:30 PM and 11 PM.
If you want to eat at a particular restaurant in La Gomera, I recommend that before booking a table you do a search on Google or on the social networks of each restaurant to find out the opening hours of the establishment as well as the days they are closed for rest or holidays. It will be easier for you to choose the day to visit them!
How tipping works in restaurants in La Gomera
Unlike in other countries, tipping in restaurants at the end of a meal is not mandatory in Spain as it is included in the price of the service.
However, it is customary to tip in restaurants depending on the generosity of the customer, how satisfied he/she is with the service and the total amount of the meal.
If you are very happy with the service when you go to eat at a restaurant in La Gomera, I recommend you do so to let the waiters and chefs know that they made an effort and did a good job.

Where to eat in La Gomera: 5 charming places to eat
La Gomera, the quiet island
The island of La Gomera, that jewel in the Atlantic, is not only a pleasure for the eyes, but for all the senses. Its lush vegetation, whitewashed houses and black sandy beaches are much more than the Garajonay National Park, one of the four National Parks of the Canary Islands. Less than half an hour from the island of Tenerife by sea, it still has the charm of the places without tourist overexploitation, and where the landscapes, villages and streets offer us tranquillity and beauty, and if we recently told you in this blog what to see in La Gomera we told you about places to visit on the island, today we tell you where to eat in La Gomera.
A getaway to this Canary Island is an experience on every level, and its delicious gastronomy is one of its great attractions. It is not difficult to find a good place to eat in La Gomera, which has some magnificent restaurants all over the island.
Casa Efigenia is a reference among the restaurants of La Gomera.
Typical dishes of La Gomera that you must try
The gastronomy of the Canary Islands is as intense as its orography. Among the most emblematic products of this fortunate island is almogrote, a mojo that resembles pâté and mixes cured cheese, oil, pepper and sometimes tomato. Its spicy touch makes it ideal with potatoes and bread.
The fish cannot be missing in an island cuisine, and in La Gomera the corvina, the cherne and the vieja are common in a great number of dishes, and in the restaurants we have chosen where to eat in La Gomera they are very well represented.
Mojos, especially pepper mojo and coriander or parsley mojo, are a common accompaniment to many recipes and snacks (simply spread on bread and they are delicious) in the best restaurants on La Gomera.
The wide gastronomy of La Gomera can be tasted in all these restaurants.
The canary gofio was already a fundamental part of the ancient inhabitants of the Canarian archipelago before the Canarian conquest, and continues to be so today. Gofio gomero is characterised by its intense flavour and its mixture of cereals.
The watercress stew is also very popular among the people of Gomera, as well as the extraordinary white wines of Gomera, which go so well with the most typical products of the land.
Finally, we must not forget the desserts, among which the wonderful palm honey. Other highlights of the menus are the leche asada (roast milk), the tortas de vilana and cuajada (curd cakes) and the rosquetes.
After eating in La Gomera, it is always a good idea to rest the meal with a good digestive, such as mistela or gomerón, a wonderful liqueur made from palm honey and grapevine.
5 restaurants where to eat in La Gomera
The restaurants where to eat in La Gomera that we have chosen offer the best of the island’s gastronomy, and we present them to you below:
Casa Ciro, a restaurant serving tasty local cuisine with magnificent views
Ciro House
Known by all as “Casa Ciro”, this is a family restaurant where homemade dishes are prepared, it is located on the beachfront and has spectacular views of the Charco del Conde, a quiet natural pool that delights children and adults alike. It offers a wide range of quality cuisine, where the fish dishes stand out. Apart from its dining room, you have the option of making a reservation on the terrace, where you can enjoy a wonderful meal.
La Vieja Escuela is quality home cooking from La Gomera.
The Old School
Restaurant located in Agulo, its picturesque cobbled streets, and stunning mountain views, are the ideal aperitif to enjoy the flavour of the island of La Gomera with a cuisine based on natural and fresh ingredients from the land and the sea. Fresh fish, prawns with garlic, goat’s meat, almogrote, tuna in mojo sauce, veal cutlet, roast milk or Pantana jam are all sure to please. Traditional and island cuisine in a unique place, as this restaurant is located in what used to be the old school of Agulo, founded in 1927, a perfect place to eat in La Gomera, without a doubt.
Casa Efigenia La Montaña, in Las Hayas
Casa Efigenia La Montaña
Created in the sixties, the restaurant located in Las Hayas is run by Efigenia, a woman born in the land of Gomera, raised among fruits, vegetables and greens, who would later take her from the garden to the kitchen with the best techniques, and from the kitchen to the table with her friendly character and her people skills. Thanks to her, a small corner lost in this dream island has become a reference point for traditional Canarian gastronomy. It is one of the most authentic and traditional corners of the island, and there is no doubt that a good vegetable stew, a gofio escaladón and a fruit salad, accompanied by almogrote, mojo rojo, bread and a warm homemade lemonade, made with so much love, tastes like heaven.
Trattoria Club Laurel, one of the restaurants of the Hotel Jardín Tecina in La Gomera.
Hotel Jardin Tecina
Hotel Jardín Tecina is located in the quiet village of Playa Santiago, on an impressive cliff overlooking the Atlantic. This luxury resort is located in an idyllic spot, from where you can go on excursions to the Garajonay National Park to enjoy its flora and fauna. Crossing its gates means enjoying a unique combination of nature, sport, relaxation and leisure. And no wonder: 70,000 square metres of botanical garden where you can stroll and contemplate the more than fifty plants from all over the world that coexist here. It has five swimming pools, two solariums, four bars and no less than six restaurants to choose from: Restaurante Principal, Club Laurel, Restaurante Gara, Trattoria Club Laurel, Barbacoa Piscina and Tasca Fandango.
El Parador de La Gomera, local produce in delicious dishes
Parador of La Gomera
This Parador Nacional is located in San Sebastián de La Gomera, with an island architecture that takes you back to other times, to the times of the Columbian era. With views of the city and the island of Tenerife, the cosy rooms, the swimming pool and a garden with subtropical species form an ideal setting for tranquillity and enjoyment. With breathtaking views over the ocean, beach, nature and history at hand, the restaurant, rustic and beautiful, offers above all local products such as Gomeran cheese, black potato, black wreckfish, black pig, in updated recipes that will certainly not leave anyone indifferent, such as watercress stew, almogrote, boiled old women and roasted milk with honey from Palma.

Eating in La Gomera – Culinary delights and Restaurants
Eating in La Gomera is a treat by itself. During our visit to this beautiful island, we got to try out some awesome restaurants. There are several specialties that the island is known for and we got to try those too. Join us as we eat our way through the island and visit different restaurants and stores. What does La Gomera have to offer when it comes to food?
Table of Contents
Eating in La Gomera – try these things
The island has some of the same specialties as the other Canary Islands have. One example is the Mojo (a spicy sauce with garlic). And La Gomera also offers some really mean Almogrote and not to forget – the original Palm Honey is made here. Here is a list of our favorite restaurants and the things that you should not miss out on while being on the island. If we are missing something traditional on our list, please let us know so that we can update the list.
No, sorry – if you are looking for amazingly plated food that will look picture perfect on Instagram, you will be disappointed. The food in La Gomera is super good but it does not photograph well. A lot of soups and pastes and stews don’t look great on photos but we can promise you that they are really tasty.
Almogrote – Cheese paste with garlic
This is one thing that needs to be eaten in restaurants. We bought some with us in a gift shop and it tasted nothing like the once that we were served in restaurants. Sure, you can buy it but we recommend that you buy the cheese in La Gomera and then you make it yourself. Almogrote is a paste that you spread on bread. To make the paste, you will need to use a mortar and pestle. Well, if you have a strong blender that can mix the cheese, you can use that too.
We recommend that you always order Almogrote in each restaurant that you visit. You will be surprised that the same dish tastes different every time. We found a recipe for Almogrote so that you can make it yourself.
Almogrote – ingredients
500 grams of hard cured cheese.
1 chili pepper or chili powder if you can’t find fresh chili.
4 tablespoons of pepper.
1,5 glasses of olive oil.
10 garlic cloves.
300 grams of tomatoes (ripe).
This is how you do Almogrote
Mix or mortar all the ingredients together. It’s easier if you first cut the cheese in smaller pieces. Mix it until it becomes a paste. Serve it with bread and a glass of wine. If you want a stronger taste of your cheese paste, leave out the tomatoes. So what does Almogrote taste like? Somewhat like a cheesy tomatoey paste with a kick. We both loved it when we ate it in restaurants. However, we didn’t like the once that we bought in stores. While eating in La Gomera, we ended up trying Almogrote every day!
Gofio – Great to mix into dishes
Gofio is a mixture of roasted corn flour and barley. It’s a sort of Canarian flour made from roasted grains (typically wheat or certain varieties of corn) or other starchy plants (for example beans) and a little salt. It is not only served as an accompaniment to most dishes but also sprinkled into coffee and wine by the people living in La Gomera.
We got to eat Gofio several times during our stay on the island. It’s a really good accessory to food but it’s not that good to eat just the gofio. Probably because it’s like flour. You can buy Gofio in most stores and mix it into most of the dishes that you make. In La Gomera, they use it in almost everything – chocolate, on bread, energy bars and much more. For the islands best Gofio cookies you need to visit Idelina that sells her cookies in the Garajonaj National Park. Read more about it in our previous post.
Papas arrugadas – Canarian Potatoes
This is something special for all of the Canary Islands and not only La Gomera. Papas arrugadas is usually served with a chili pepper garlic sauce, called mojo rojo, or as an accompaniment to meat dishes. The dish is made from small potatoes that are boiled in saltwater. I always liked potatoes and these salty treats are awesome with mojo added to them.
What makes them so special is that they are boiled in saltwater taken from the sea. We liked them in all kinds of dishes and we have also said that we will try to boil our fresh potatoes in saltwater taken from the ocean. We will be back with a verdict.
Palm Honey – a special thing for La Gomera
A visit to La Gomera must include a tasting of the famous Palm Honey. No, it’s not honey that is made out of bees. It’s called palm honey but it’s really palm sap from special palm trees. They harvest the palms and then boil the sap for lots of hours. The result is a syrup that is really sweet.
If you get a chance, try to find a place where you can try the fresh sap. This is not an easy task since it gets ruined really fast and needs to be in a freezer. However, the taste of the fresh sap is somewhat like coconut water. You can visit the Palm honey museum and learn more about harvesting and everything about how they make the palm honey. Read more about our visit to the Casa de la Miel here.
La Gomeran wine
Did you know that “traditional” La Gomera wine is a lot stronger than what we are used to? Unfortunately, most places offer regular wine from La Gomera and not the stronger version. Winemaking in La Gomera started already in 1531. In 2012, they started to study the grapes and today they produce some really high-quality wine. There are about 200 acres of vineyards and about 150 people work with wine production. In all, there are 19 bodegas and 13 of them sell their wines in their bodegas.
You can get great local wine in all of the restaurants around the island. If you want to be part of something more special and learn more about the wine, make sure to be at the visitor center each Friday. On Fridays, there is a new bodega each week that presents their wine. The winemaking is really important and helps to keep the fires in check on the island. Read more about the visitor center and their wine tastings here.
Restaurants to visit while in La Gomera
During our days in La Gomera, we got to try out some really good restaurants. They all had one thing in common – they serve local specialties and they focus on sustainable tourism. Some do it better than others but at least they are all trying. By serving fresh fish and seasonal vegetables, we ended up eating a lot of fish. La Gomeran food is good even if it doesn’t always present itself in a nice way on the plate. A lot of focus in their cooking is to have fresh herbs and spices in their dishes. Eating in La Gomera is a delight that we enjoyed.
Here are the restaurants and places that we visited during our trip to La Gomera. Eating in La Gomera when it’s best!
Try out a Gourmet tasting at the PEG Los Telares
PEG Los Telares is an Ethnographical Park but it is also a shop and a place that offers gourmet tastings of their locally produced products. Here, you will be able to drink local wine and eat goat cheese, figs, Gofio with honey and other treats. You will not get full here, this is a tasting and not a complete dinner.
They also have a gift shop and there they have several of their organic products that you can try out. Try their Almogrote, palm honey and Mojo. This is a great place to stock up on the gifts that you want to bring back home or buy some spices for your own kitchen. Read more about our visit to PEG Los Telares Here.
Restaurant Las Chacaras in Hermigua
Our first evening in La Gomera, we got to try out this awesome restaurant. Las Chácaras is located in Hermigua and it is a popular place for the locals. César was there to take care of us. Unfortunately (in this case), we had one in our party that spoke Spanish. Due to that, I didn’t get all the information on what we were being served.
I do know that we started out with Almogrote and a cheese platter. After that, we got a salad that was mixed with vegetables and fruits. The balsamico on the salad was incredible. Then we got to try grilled goat cheese. I love, love, love cheese and this was incredible. The saltiness from the cheese and some sort of honey sauce in the perfect combination. The next dish was some kind of soup (didn’t get the name of that one). Well, first if it was a soup and then César added Gofio and the soup turned into a stew. They were both equally good. Ok, the soup (and stew) didn’t photograph well but the taste was great!
Sharing dishes at Las Chacaras
We were four people in the restaurant. Since this was our first evening on the island, we let César choose what to eat. After the soup that turned into a stew, it was time for fish. And after the fish, it was time for goats meat and Papas arrugadas. When we were all really satisfied with all the food it was still time for dessert.
The desert was made out of Gofiomousse with popcorn. It was a totally different dish but we all liked it! The whole experience was great and César was such a gracious host. The only thing I was missing, was to get all the dishes names in English. I hade a hard time to get it translated and I’m not sure how good the translation was. But we all agreed that this restaurant is great. The name “Las Chacacas” translates something like castanets. This family place is well worth a visit. And we liked to share all the dishes with our newfound friends.
Address: Calle Cabo 2, Carretera General, 38829 Hermigua, La Gomera. Opening hours: Monday – Saturday 12:00 – 16:00 and 19:00 – 23:00. Sundays are closed. Phone number for reservations: +34 922 88 10 39
Restaurant Gastro Tasca Estadio
A really nice restaurant in Hermiuga. Here we got to start our meal with a lentil soup. No, like most traditional food in La Gomera, it doesn’t look that good but the taste was perfect. After the warming soup, we got to try the rabbit. It was ok but I wish that there had been some more sauce or something that went with the rabbit. The rabbit came with a little bit of gravy. Another thing that I was missing was vegetables.
After the rabbit, we got fish with onions and mussels. And finally, we got dessert. As always they serve a lot of food in La Gomera and restaurant Gastro Tasca Estadio is no exception. If you enjoy a lot of food, you will be eating in La Gomera like crazy!
Address: Ctra. General, 129, 38820 Hermigua. Opening hours: Monday – Friday 06:00 – 10:00. Saturdays and Sundays 10:00 – 22:00. Phone number for reservations: +34 922 88 00 24
La Casa Creativa / Bar Terraza Pedro
If you are lucky you will meet Carmen during your visit to this Tapas place. Carmen is the owner of this place and you can feel hear warmth an friendliness from far away. Here, we ended ut eating the best seafood salad and the Almogrote was really good. We decided to sit outside but first, we went inside and looked at the display of foods so that we would know what to choose.
We ended up ordering several different tapas dishes and we all enjoyed them really much. This was also the one and only time where we didn’t get completely stuffed during a restaurant visit but that was because we ordered the tapas (small dishes). This is one of our favorite restaurants of all that we tried on the island.
Address: Ctra. General, 156, 38820 Hermigua. Opening hours: Monday – Friday 09:00 – 23:00. Saturdays and Sundays closed. Phone number for reservations: +34 922 88 09 91
Restaurante La Vieja Escuela
This restaurant serves food that is traditional to La Gomera. We started out with a soup that was really good (even if it didn’t look so tasty). After the soup, we were served white fish with Papas Arugadas and it tasted like a real home-cooked meal. One thing that we noticed was that there was so much food that it would be impossible to eat it all. Apparently, the locals always serve so much food because it’s not supposed to be finished.
If you would eat all the food that they are serving, it means that they didn’t give you enough food and that’s not ok. I get the point but at the same time, it feels like a lot of food gets wasted. And after eating all that food – in came the dessert. If I remember it correctly none of us was able to finish the dessert even if it was good. Eating in La Gomera is awesome!
This restaurant is located in Vallehermoso and some of the people that joined the press trip got to stay at the hotel too. This place is like walking into someone’s home. And the food tastes like it’s homemade. Here we ate a really good soup. I went bold here and added some Gofio into it and it became more like a stew.
And then the food just kept coming. We got a stew with Canarian potatoes and a fresh salad. This restaurant is also a bar and it seemed like it was a popular place for the locals. The vegetarian option was a pasta dish and it had a lot of flavors. When looking at the reviews of this place – everyone says that the food is good and that the people working here are awesome. We can’t do anything else but agree with the rest of the reviews.
Address: Plaza de Chipude, s/n, 38840 Vallehermoso. Phone number: +34 922 80 41 58
Restaurante Abisinia in Valle Gran Rey
A restaurant in the popular town of Valle Gran Rey. Restaurante Abisinia serves some really great dishes. This was our first time where we got a great steak during our trip to La Gomera. Mine was served with a pepper sauce and Mini chose one with mushroom sauce. Both of them were great!
With the steak, we were served both potatoes and rice. I didn’t think that I would like the combo – I mean don’t you choose between one or the other? Apparently not because this combo was good! We also got the cutest dessert ever! Talk about creativity – they wrote their restaurant’s name in chocolate! Abisinia was one of the best places that we visited while eating in La Gomera.
Address: Calle La, Calle Cuesta de Abisinia, 38870 Valle Gran Rey. Opening hours: Monday – Saturday 17:00 – 23.00. Sundays are closed. Phone number: +34 922 80 58 93.
Hotel Gran Rey
This was the only place that we visited that served an all you can eat buffet. There was so much to choose from that it was impossible to try it all. They had a huge selection with vegetarian alternatives and that’s awesome. Hotel Gran Rey is, like the name says, also a hotel where you can spend some time. For people that want to be close to the beach, this is a good option.
I do think that their restaurant has a “regular” menu too but the buffet was tasty so there’s no need to eat anything else. The size of the buffet was so big that you can eat it for one week straight and still not try it all. We recommend that you check this place out when you are eating in La Gomera.

Highlights
The round islet of La Gomera is part of the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. The area of the island is 378 km², and the population is 16 thousand people. This is a rather mountainous island, along which long winding roads are laid. On the coast there are picturesque steep cliffs. There are few beaches on the island, but deep green valleys are found in abundance, bordered by narrow fields rising to the slopes of the mountains. These valleys are often shrouded in clouds driven by the trade winds. A third of the island is divided into 17 nature reserves created on the initiative of UNESCO.
You can get to La Gomera by ferry or plane from neighboring islands. The airport is located in the southern part of the island, near Playa de Santiago, and the port is in the capital San Sebastian.
San Sebastian
San Sebastian (population – 6200 people) – a small town on the island of La Gomera, where in September 1492, Columbus’ ships stopped to stock up on water and food. Everything here reminds me of Columbus. On the main square – Plaza de las Americas – a mosaic is laid out, which depicts the route of the Columbus expedition. Under the big tree is the customs building. It is believed that Columbus drew water from the local well and went to the New World. From the square departs the only more or less extended street, Calle del Medio, also associated with the name of the great navigator. The Virgen de la Asuncion church was built between 1490 to 1510. It seems so old that it is easy to imagine how Columbus prayed in its gloomy nave in 1492 – this, by the way, is reminiscent of a memorial plaque. A little further is the modest home of Columbus (open: Mon-Fri 10.00-13.00, 16.00-18.00, admission is free), where the navigator lived during a stop on La Gomera. The local authorities have restored the house, and today a collection of pre-Columbian ceramics from Latin America, as well as items related to the Columbus expedition, are on display here.
North
The road from San Sebastian goes up steeply and the views are just amazing. At 1,487m, La Gomera’s highest mountain, Alto de Garajonay, is not too big by Canarian standards. However, the whole island will seem to you a frightening labyrinth of fantastic gorges. The small town of Hermingua is the largest in La Gomera after San Sebastian. Take a look at Los Telares Craft Center. From here you have a beautiful view of the green, fertile valley. Taste the local liqueur “Mistela”, watch how women weave blankets and rugs on old looms. Then you will get to Agulo, a pretty little town located right on the cliff. Its main attraction (in addition to the picturesque location) is the church of San Marco, crowned with a dome. This church was once a mosque. A mighty laurel tree grows on the square in front of the church.
In front of the town of Las Rozas, turn away from the sea and enter the Garajonay National Park. In 1986, UNESCO included this region in the list of the World Heritage of Humanity. In the tourist center of Juego de Bolas (open: daily 9.30-16.30) there is a small ethnographic museum and a garden of local herbs. Here you can get all the necessary information.
The road continues through a 3984 hectare park and leads you to a restaurant near La Laguna Grande. This is a cozy, hospitable place, which is very popular with tourists. The restaurant cannot boast of a beautiful view – thick fog almost constantly hangs here, enveloping old, moss-covered trees. Homer is almost constantly shrouded in thick fog driven by the trade winds. Due to the high humidity, subtropical plants feel great here – laurel, cedar, juniper and olives, ferns and epiphytes (non-parasitic plants that live on other plants).
South
If you head south from San Sebastian, you will pass three mighty volcanoes and come to the winding road of Degollada de Peras. It offers magnificent views to the north and south. Follow the road to a fork and then turn left instead of right towards Garajonay and take a very winding road to Playa de Santiago (and the airport).
This is the second seaside town on the island besides San Sebastian. There is a small port and a small pebble beach. But the main attraction is the picturesque cliffs located to the east of the town. Here, the Norwegian shipbuilder Fred Olsen created the magnificent Tichina Garden resort, where guests live in Canarian-style villas.
On your way back you pass the airport. At Igualero turn left (west). A small path leads you to Las Ayas. Stop in the town of El Sercado, where traditional pottery is still made in a unique way – without the potter’s wheel. Here you can see the masters at work, and then purchase the results of their work. The prices will surprise you – they are as steep as the cliffs of La Gomera.
From Las Ayas head towards Arura. In Arura, turn left and you will come to a small wine cellar selling wines from La Gomera and other Canary Islands. Homer has about 300 hectares of vineyards. Grapes are grown here on steep slopes and small terraces. Stop at the highest point where the observation deck and Escuela restaurant, built by Cesar Manrique, are located. From here you have a magnificent view of the green valley of Gran Rey. The locals have built many terraces in this deep fertile gorge and grow a wide variety of fruits and vegetables.
Europeans who come to the Canary Islands in search of peace and quiet love to relax here.
Where the valley goes to the sea, there is a small town of La Calera with many boutiques and restaurants. The small town of Balle Gran Rey has a black sand beach, several bars and restaurants, and a diving center. Returning to the valley, follow the Arure and turn right at the T-junction. This road passes through the southern part of the national park and will take you to San Sebastian.
Island delicacy
Guarapo is a La Gomera delicacy. For its preparation, the juice of the Canarian palm is boiled down over low heat until it turns into a thick, dark, honey-like syrup.

Getting to know Homer’s island. Useful information for tourists
La Gomera looks like a baby compared to other islands of the Canary archipelago. But believe me, in this large family, the baby grows up as a beloved child. It is located in the western part of the Canaries, and, as it should be for the family of these islands, it is surrounded by the ocean.
The main thing about the island of Gomera
The harbor of San Sebastián de la Gomera.
This is a place for true connoisseurs of unbeaten hiking trails.
Climate
You can relax here all year round – the weather conditions allow, although the period from May to October is considered a resort. The average annual temperature on the island fluctuates within 25 °C, in winter it is a little cooler – about +20 °C, in summer +26..+28 °C. The ocean water temperature rarely drops below 20°C. From September to April, most of the precipitation falls, mainly in the highlands of the island.
Now the island of Gomera is a corner of primeval nature, with preserved traditions of the tribes living here for many centuries. There is not much land suitable for accommodation with comfort: the island is dissected by mountains that converge almost in the center. Such a division brings confusion to the plant world: in the southern part it is poor – during the summer everything dries up a lot. But in the north – a sea of \u200b\u200bgreenery. The center of the island went to impenetrable forests.
How to get there
By air: there is an airport on the island of Gomera, but it does not accept international flights – it is small and not suitable for this. Only local Binter Canarias flights fly to Tenerife.
By boat: you can get to Gomera by ferry from other Canary Islands: Tenerife, La Palma and Hierro. Most tourists come from Tenerife. Ferries leave from the port of Los Cristianos in the south of Tenerife. Currently, the islands of Tenerife and Gomera are connected by ferries of such companies as:
Fred Olsen Express
Naviera Armas
Both companies offer several flights daily on weekdays to the capital of Gomera – the city of San Sebastian – they also carry tourists back. Travel time one way takes from half an hour to an hour.
The price of a round-trip ticket for an adult ranges from €60-65. And yes, take your children with you, preferably from 4 to 11 years old. A ticket for them will cost almost two times cheaper – €35. There are other discounts as well. You can check the information on the official website of the Fred Olsen company.
By car: of course, you can travel around the island on your own, but then you can not do without a car – it is usually hired in Tenerife. The minimum price for round-trip tickets for two adults with a car on a ferry from Tenerife to Gomera is around €140. Keep in mind: without a rented vehicle, it will be impossible to see the entire island in a few days.
Where to stay
Currently, there are more than 100 hotels and apartments on the island where tourists can stay, although even 5 years ago they could be counted on the fingers. It is clear that the cost of living in hotels varies quite widely: rooms in 1-3 star hotels will cost from €50 and more for 1 day. Four stars are even more expensive: something like €200 per day. Most of the hotels are concentrated in the town of Playa de Santiago, the sunniest area of the island.
Local cuisine
Gourmets, you will be welcome here! National cuisine on Homer is beyond praise. Local chefs skillfully prepare rice and potato dishes, paying tribute to cultural traditions. Cheese lovers will certainly be offered different types of goat cheese, delicious cheese buns. It is worth trying special, unique dishes:
Cuban rice with fried bananas;
almogrote – a spicy appetizer made from cheese and tomato with spices;
guarapo is palm syrup boiled until thick to make delicious palm honey, locals add it to most dishes; and if you mix palm honey with moonshine, you get a Homeron cocktail;
well, and so that all this is absorbed faster, and the measured island life sparkles with new colors, the local strong wine is Mistella.
Where to eat
One of the best restaurants on the island is the Mango Restaurant. You can also find the whole variety of national cuisine in the La Tasca restaurant, lovers of evening solitude will appreciate the romantic atmosphere reigning here: if you are going to invite your companion to try on a diamond ring – you are definitely here!
Vegetarians should visit the La Montana restaurant, where gourmet dishes are prepared from simple vegetables and fruits. There is also an international restaurant – Habibi. Here you will be offered barbecue, a juicy steak, a variety of seafood dishes, and, of course, a large selection of alcoholic beverages.
If you are traveling with your family, you will love the Tagoror restaurant, where visitors with children are offered a special menu, and during the day there is always an assortment of special budget lunches. The El Descansillo restaurant is recommended for lovers of fish dishes. For those tourists who save money and also love simple and hearty food, you should look into the La Molina restaurant.
Entertainment
The island is dotted with a network of hiking trails. But if walking is too slow and tiring for you, then you can hire a bicycle, a horse, or even, if anyone cares about the poor animal, a donkey.
All you need to know about the fauna of the island is that you will not find poisonous animals and insects here. Or, more importantly, they won’t meet you.
Tired of moving on the ground – go to the skies. Comfortable and safe gliders and hang gliders are at your service. Empty and lonely in the sky in the company of clouds and birds? Employees of the local company Fisch & Co, which specializes in working with divers, will organize an excursion to the depths of the sea for you: you will definitely have a great rest there – numerous local residents are unobtrusive and laconic. Moreover, you can later try to catch the fish you like from the shore – after all, all conditions have been created here for fishing enthusiasts.
Well, if you still decide to spend time on solid ground, away from extreme sensations, well-groomed golf courses are at your service.
Attractions Gomera
Garajonay National Park: Declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. At this point, the peak of Garajonay rises above the island – the highest point on the map of Gomera. The amazing flora in the park is due to unique weather conditions: in the central part of the island there is very high humidity and constant light fog. And even if you were not lucky enough to be born in the Mesozoic era, in Garajonay Park you can correct this unfortunate misunderstanding: the local nature looked like this many millions of years ago.
In the south of the island is the natural park of La Caldera, which is a large crater of an extinct volcano. In the southwestern part there is one of the most beautiful landscapes of Gomera – the Gran Rey Valley or, as it is also called, the “Valley of the Great Kings”. Here, it will be interesting for tourists to look at the huge groves of palm trees and terraces carved into the slopes of the rocks, which resemble steps of stairs.
On the coast of Vallehermoso, in the northwestern part of the island, it is worth noting another attraction – basalt columns – the rocks of Los Organos, they rise from the sea like organ pipes. But you can only see them from the sea, on land this part of the island is prohibited for visiting.
The capital of San Sebastian de la Gomera is a small cozy town with colorful houses, narrow streets and a population of about eight thousand inhabitants. It is one of the starting points for tourists who visit the island for one day. They come here on a ferry from Tenerife, and at this time there is a real hell of social phobia – hundreds of people fill the streets and a minute ago the calm streets are seething from the ubiquitous travelers.
Special attention in the city should be paid to Plaza de las Americas, where there are numerous cafes. A little to the west you can see the Gothic Count’s Tower – a symbol of the capital of the island. In general, they make good money here on the name of Columbus, so be prepared to buy souvenirs. Such sights as the church of Iglesia de Asuncion are also associated with him, where he was blessed to discover America and the Pozo de Colon well, from where they allegedly drew water for long-distance navigation. Architectural sights are not limited to these objects. Surely you will be interested to look at the authentic monastery of San Pedro and the equally majestic Cathedral of San Salvador.
Beaches
The coast of Gomera Island is mostly steep and rocky, so it is not the best place for tourists who like to wallow on the beach. But, nevertheless, the sun-warmed sand and salty ocean water is enough for everyone. The sand here is volcanic, black, but for those who like to leave pebbles in the waves, there are also places strewn with pebbles.

It cannot be said that La Gomera is strikingly different from the other islands of the Canary archipelago. The same water, sun, rocks, beaches and abundant vegetation. The only thing, oh Homer is less visited by tourists, and staying here is conducive to a calm, measured rest. This means that this is one of the best places on earth in order to take a short – and whoever has the means and a long one – a respite from the stresses of the modern civilized world. Meet me on the island of Gomera?;)
La Gomera in the Canary Islands, photo
To the southwest of Tenerife is the most mysterious and atmospheric island of the Canary Islands – La Gomera. Covered in a mysterious haze, Gomera Island attracts thousands of tourists and is especially popular in winter.
The island owes its name not to cartoon dad Simpson, and not even to the ancient Greek poet, but to the grandson of the famous Noah, who built a giant ark. Gomera Island is located 30 kilometers from Tenerife and, thanks to such a favorable location, attracts crowds of tourists every day who cross to the island, both independently and in excursion groups. Getting to Gomera Island is easy. Passenger-and-freight ferries operate from the port of Los Cristianos, representing three independent carriers at once. The fastest of them is the ferry from the Fred Olsen company, which will take you to Homer’s Island in just half an hour. Several flights go to the island at once, but in order to have enough time to explore Homer Island, we recommend using the very first morning flight. The exact timetable and ticket prices can be found on the official website of the carrier.
Without a car or without an organized excursion program, there will be nothing to do on the island of Gomera. On foot, you will not have time to get around all the sights of the island, and an attempt to explore the island, based on the knowledge of the Internet or a guidebook, will be something like an embrace of the immense. Only by moving by car, you will have a chance to see everything in one day. A little trick. If you decide to rent a car, then pay attention to flexible discount systems under the programs “car + 2 tourists”, “car + 3 tourists” and so on. It will be much cheaper than buying individual tickets for each tourist.
The attractions of La Gomera welcome you as soon as you arrive at the capital’s port and main town of San Sebastian de la Gomera. Sounds good, looks even better. All roads in the city lead to the Count’s Tower – the most important point in the tourist route of any excursion. The tower is famous thanks to Christopher Columbus, who, back in 1492, made an appointment with his mistress Beatrice de Bobadilla within its walls. A sultry woman, the dream of not only a poet, but also a navigator, and concurrently also the ruler of the island of Homer. Every stone, every crack in the facade remembers Christopher Columbus. There is even a well preserved here, in which the famous navigator drew water. And the water in the well is not easy. As the inscription on the tablet says, it was with this water that Christopher Columbus christened America. Here is the Church of the Ascension, where Senor Columbus prayed before the conquest of America.
If we talk about the climate of the island of Gomera, then it does not differ from Tenerife. The island is also surrounded by high mountains, which easily hold back the clouds and the weather on Homer is dry and hot (For the information of tourists, excellent photos come out on the island of Homer!). The north of the island is covered with dense laurel forests – the largest in all the Canary Islands. The forest is protected by the state and officially given the status of a national park. Many tourists make a trip to the island of Gomera just for the sake of walking through this unique forest. Several hiking trails lead to another national park – Garahanay. The walk will give you a lot of pleasure, especially if you take into account that entry by car is prohibited there.
And the local cuisine will certainly not leave anyone indifferent. The island cuisine of Homer should be separated from the rest of the Canarian treats. What is only worth local palm honey, which is used as a sweet addition to a wide variety of dishes. In fact, distant Latin America had a huge impact on local food. The fact is that a large number of Canarians left for permanent residence in Venezuela and Cuba. Therefore, it is not surprising that when they returned, they brought with them samples of local cuisine. Here you can taste real Cuban rice with fried banana and other Caribbean delicacies.
Be sure to visit the Palmarejo restaurant, located at an altitude of 800 meters above sea level, perched on top of a cliff. The view from there is unforgettable, and the dishes served in the restaurant are the most delicious on the entire island of Gomera. Here you can order the usual European dishes or Homeric delicacies.
Basalt pillars are located in the north of Gomera Island. In another way, they are also called giant organ pipes. Indeed, if you fantasize, you can find a certain similarity. True, you can watch the fabulous landscape only from the water. It is enough to order a short excursion or rent a boat, and then swim up to the basalt formations as close as possible.
The locals speak excellent Spanish, a little worse English and not very good Russian. But best of all they manage to communicate in silbo. This is a unique and one-of-a-kind means of communication based on a whistle. And now attention, the lesson of the Homeric language: put two fingers in your mouth and try to blow as you should. Use part of your hand as a sound resonator and part as an amplifier. It’s not very clear, but, therefore, native speakers will explain it to you best by whistling a couple of lessons. The vocabulary of silbo has several hundred words, and if you “speak” this language correctly, then the interlocutor will hear you, being at a distance of 5 kilometers or even more. Why mobile communications, if there is a free way to communicate.
All detailed information about the island of Gomera can be found on the official website of the island at www.gomera-island.com. The information on the site is not presented in Russian or even in the Silbo language, but only in Spanish and English.

La Gomera – Canary Islands
Island La Gomera (La Gomera) tourists appreciate primarily for its primeval nature. Landscapes amaze with the greenery of steep slopes, which are cut by parallel winding lines of terraces. Such a relief of Homera has always made it difficult to communicate between the villages. Until now, many areas of the island have retained their virginity. Most impressive is the unexpectedly dense vegetation on the central plateau, where a thousand-year-old laurel forest stands in eternal fog.
La Gomera is located just 30 km from Tenerife. From here, most tourists come for a one-day tour of the island. Gomera tours start from the southern part of the island of Tenerife. Ferries depart to the island 3-4 times a day. However, a full visit to this island takes more time than a day trip. Due to difficult roads, it is impossible to see all its sights in such a short time. The best way to get to know the beauties of Gomera is to stay there for a few days and walk or bike along the numerous paths and calm roads of the island.
La Gomera a true natural relic. In the preglacial period, laurel thickets occupied a vast territory of the subtropical zone. Today, this type of forest is found only in Macronesia (Madeira Islands, Cape Verde Islands, Wild Islands, Azores and Canary Islands). On La Gomera, unlike other islands of the Canary archipelago, there have been no volcanic eruptions in the last two million years. Therefore, the ancient flora is better preserved here. The highlands of the island have become a giant greenhouse that has given shelter to almost 400 species of plants that disappeared in Europe and Africa millions of years ago. Among them there are some that you will not find anywhere else in the world.
La Gomera is called the island of Columbus (Isla Colombina) – the capital of the island of San Sebastian was the last stop of the famous navigator in 1492 before the famous journey to the shores of the unknown mainland.
Cities and resorts:
San Sebastian de La Gomera is the capital of the island and a small cozy town. Every day, when the ferry from Tenerife arrives and the tourists leave, the city comes to life. The road from the port to the city passes through the Plaza de las Americas, shaded by laurels, with many street cafes.
To the west of the square rises the Count’s Tower (Torre del Conde), built in 1447 by the first Spanish ruler. It is the only surviving fragment of the city’s fortifications and reminds of the tragic events of 1448. Beatriz de Bobadilla, wife of Erman Peraza Jr. (Hernán Peraza “el Joven”), barricaded herself in the walls of the tower after the Guanches killed her husband, who had seduced a local princess. When help arrived from Gran Canaria, Beatrice retaliated by ordering the execution of almost all Guanche men.
The main church of the island is Iglesia de Asunción (Nuestra Señora de la Asunción): as the story goes, Christopher Columbus prayed in this church before continuing his first journey. They say that before sailing to the New World, Columbus stayed in a house on Real 56 Street, which currently bears the name of the navigator (Casa de Colun). Another attraction dating back to the time of Columbus is well (el Pozo de la Aguada), located in the courtyard of the former customs house and has the inscription: “America was baptized with water from this source. ”
Playa de Santiago (Playa de Santiago) This small tourist center is located next to the fishing village in the sunniest and southern area of Gomera. The island’s airport is located a few kilometers from the resort. Here you can taste delicious fresh fish and enjoy a quiet relaxing holiday on the beach.
Attractions and entertainment:
Garajonay National Park (El Parque Nacional de Garajonay) occupies 10% of the island and is the largest area of the oldest woodland in the archipelago. The park was created to preserve relic vegetation. At 1986 was declared by UNESCO as a heritage of mankind. Thanks to the unique weather conditions, the park has an amazing flora. The constant light fog that forms when cool Atlantic winds collide with warm breezes creates very high humidity. This contributes to the rapid growth of about 450 species of trees and plants. Here you can imagine what the Mediterranean forest looked like before the last ice age.

La Gomera is associated with the name of Christopher Columbus, who stayed here three times: in 1492, 1493 and 1498. The island provided his flotilla with food, fresh drinking water and was a convenient starting point for his historical expeditions. There is also a legend about the romance of Columbus with Beatrice de Babadilla. Columbus forever remained the unofficial patron of the island. Fiesta Colombinas on September 6 marks his first trip.
