1) Beach of Las Teresitas. This two-kilometer beach with unusual golden sand brought here from the Sahara, spectacular palm trees and water of bright blue color, is located in four kilometers from the capital of the island - the city of Santa Cruz. Many consider this place the most beautiful of all, located in the Atlantic Ocean. The beach is very comfortable equipped, there are plenty of sun loungers and umbrellas here, enough for everyone. In addition, there are many changing cabins and showers with fresh water. Near the beach there is ample parking and a huge number of restaurants and cafes. The only drawback among all these pluses is that the beach is near the Anaga mountain, so there is often wind and clouds there.

3) Beach Playa de Los Cristianos differs from the two previous abundance of entertainment. Here, tourists will find a lot of water activities (diving, snorkeling), beach games (beach volleyball) and entertainment for children.

4) Las Vistas beach is one of the most popular beaches in the south of the island of Tenerife. Youth island vacation in Spain is, uniquely, the Las Vistas beach. Along the long beach is a lot of bars, restaurants and nightclubs, and beckoning to look inside. In addition to these institutions, there are also discos located right on the sand near the water.
