Relax in Tenerife’s rugged beauty
On the western side of Tenerife, built into the rugged coastline just south of its next-door neighbour Los Gigantes, Puerto de Santiago is an easy-going resort. It’s ideal for those wanting a quieter holiday based around long sunny days at the beach and relaxed evenings enjoying the restaurants and bars. Things are low-key on Puerto de Santiago holidays – you’ll find winding streets with a smattering of restaurants and views to the neighbouring island of La Gomera. It’s a great location for exploring the sights of Tenerife, including the bright lights of Playa de las Americas, the dramatic wilderness of Teide National Park and the island’s famous volcano, Mount Teide.
For those in search of relaxation, the resort has a small beach, and there’s also the larger Blue Flag beach Playa de la Arena just a 10-minute walk to the south. Here you’ll find a wide crescent of soft, volcanic sand edged with pines and palms, with the Acantilados de Los Gigantes rock formations rising in the distance. Holidays to Puerto de Santiago are perfect for those who love tranquility, scenery and sunshine.
