Plaza de Espana

Plaza de España is the largest square in Santa Cruz de Tenerife and the entire Canary Islands. Constructed in 1929 the square underwent significant refurbishment in 2006 . This renovation introduced a large artificial lake. Dominating the center of the square is the Monument to the Fallen, a 25-meter high cross-like obelisk unveiled in 1947 to honor those who died in the Spanish Civil War.

Playa de las Teresitas

Beautiful place for a short stop. Playa de Las Teresitas is located in the northeast of Tenerife, near the village of San Andrés and approximately a 10-minute drive from the capital, Santa Cruz de Tenerife. The beach is characterized by its golden sands and calm, turquoise waters. Originally, the area consisted of pebbles and black volcanic sand, with strong Atlantic currents making it less suitable for swimming. In the early 1970s, to create a more appealing beach, a breakwater was constructed to protect against strong waves, and approximately 270,000 tons of white sand were imported from the Sahara Desert to cover the beach.

Candelaria

OPTIONAL CANARIAN LUNCH! We can have a stop for lunch at your taste.*Not included in the whole price of the tour. A traditional lunch in the Canary Islands o might begin with papas arrugadas, small potatoes boiled in salted water until their skins wrinkle, served with two types of mojo sauces: mojo verde and mojo rojo. An excellent starter is grilled goat cheese, a local delicacy where slices of goat cheese are cooked on a griddle until slightly melted and golden brown. For the main course, carne de cabra guisada is a traditional dish featuring goat meat slowly cooked with spices, vegetables, and a touch of local wine, resulting in tender and flavorful meat. Alternatively, a mixed grill offers a variety of meats, including pork, chicken, and rabbit. Seafood enthusiasts will appreciate the abundance of fresh local fish and seafood available in the Canary Islands. To accompany these dishes a great Canarian wine is recommended!
