Spain tenerife map. Map of Tenerife: attractions, beaches and places of power
Planning a holiday in Tenerife always starts with choosing a resort. And rightly so, because although Tenerife is an island eternal spring but not all resorts are suitable for year-round beach holiday... Agree, it will be a shame to live in a place where the weather is bad. After all, the island is famous not only for its natural and cultural attractions, but also for its beautiful beaches with white and black sand. In this article, you will learn about the popular resorts of Tenerife. I will tell you which one is better for a quiet holiday, and which one for families with children.
South Tenerife is popular all year round. It is here that wonderful weather reigns regardless of the month (read). In the south of the island there are several resorts, each of which has its own characteristics and has its own flavor.
Playa de Las Americas is the most popular resort in Tenerife. The atmosphere here is non-stop. During the day, vacationers spend time on the beach, and in the evening they go to bars, restaurants and nightclubs. This resort has the highest concentration of nightlife venues, so it is often chosen by young people. There are several beaches in Las Americas, you can choose a hotel right on the ocean. There are many famous brand shops and souvenir shops in the resort. If you are planning to travel around the island, then from Las Amercas it will be convenient to get around Tenerife both independently by public transport and by a rented car.

Costa Adeje is the quiet neighbor of the bustling Las Americas. Ideal for a quiet getaway. Costa Adeje is more expensive and respectable resort than Las Americas, but there are also affordable accommodation options. Golf courses are a distinctive feature of the resort. The resort has several shopping centers where you can go shopping. For more active rest you can visit one of the Water Parks. Adults prefer, and families with children prefer Aqualand.

Los Cristianos is one of the cheapest resorts in the south. Los Cristianos is quieter than its neighbor Las Americas. It is often chosen for families with children and retirees. Young people prefer to settle at the border of the resorts, closer to nightlife. Los Cristianos has several comfortable beaches, equipped with everything you need. To explore the island, it is easy to go to from here. Los Cristianos has a large port from which ferries leave for other Canary Islands. The nearest island of La Gomera is only one hour sailing. Such boat trip can be done independently or as part of an excursion group. But I would not recommend settling near the port. The sea is not very clean there.

Los Gigantes - this resort is known primarily for its rocks of the same name. They are so large that you only realize their real height when you are next to them in the sea. The resort has a variable height, so many hotels offer beautiful views of the cliffs and the ocean. It's quiet and peaceful here. This resort is preferred by families with children who want a quiet, unhurried holiday. Among the holidaymakers, you can also meet retirees from Europe. But young people can get bored here, since there are practically no places for entertainment.

Costa del Silencio - the resort consists of the two villages of Ten Belle and Las Galletes. One of them goes into the other. This resort is also called the coast of silence and for good reason. Rest here will take place in a relaxed atmosphere. The best beaches are in the village of Las Galletes. Divers and snorkelers have chosen these places. If you haven’t scuba dived yet, it doesn’t matter. There are several diving schools in the village, where you will quickly be taught all the intricacies of studying the depths of the sea.

Golf del Sur and Amarilla Golf - these two resorts are located far from the bustling Las Americas. It is also quiet, calm and leisurely. This resort is a popular choice for golf enthusiasts and there are many huge golf courses in the vicinity. You can watch the game directly from the balcony of the hotel room. I would attribute the lack of good beaches to the disadvantages of the resort. There is a beach, but it is small and it loses noticeably to other beaches of Tenerife. There are cafes and restaurants here, prices are cheaper than in popular tourist places, but you can get from here on your own to others interesting places not very comfortable. If you choose this resort, rent a car. You can go around everything with him. Accommodation in hotels and apartments can be cheaper here than in more popular places.

El Medano is another southern Tenerife resort, but with its own characteristics. There is always wind in El Medano. Some days in winter it can be cool for swimming in the ocean due to the wind, while in other resorts on the island it is not a problem to get into the water. Due to such features, El Medano is often chosen by amateurs aquatic species sports. There are many surfing and windsurfing schools in the resort. El Médano is a small, cozy town, in which everything is a stone's throw. Here nice beaches, there are cafes and restaurants. Lovers of romance also choose it.

The best cities in Tenerife
Santa Cruz de Tenerife is the capital of the island and the most Big city in Tenerife. It can hardly be called a holiday resort. Most often people come to the city for one day for shopping. There are many shops in Santa Cruz where you can buy everything you need. The city has a large port where tourists arrive from cruise liners...
