Visiting different cities, exploring their architecture and landmarks, is an essential part of any trip. Strolling through the city with a stroller and a small child adds its own nuances.
The Canary Islands are not only a year-round comfortable vacation spot but also an unexplored new world: valleys with Martian and lunar landscapes, volcanic terrain, and bizarre plants. Here are the TOP7 amazing places in the Canary Islands.
Tenerife Norte is another airport in Tenerife, located in the north of the island, 14 kilometers from the capital Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Sometimes you can hear its old name – Los Rodeos.
In the western part of Tenerife Island, nestled among rocky shores, lies a small, luxurious little cove. Here, you'll find light, fine sand and clear azure waters.
In February, we arrived in Tenerife during the carnival celebration. How could we not take at least a little peek at the bright and flamboyant dresses of the queens, the dressed-up men, and the semi-naked dancing girls? Want to join us?
Playa de Almáciga – my favorite in Anaga park. It's a beach with character and a distinctive wild nature. Be very careful with it. It'll greet you with relaxed and serene hippies in vans, running surfers, and tanned Canarian youth sunbathing. The beach has pleasant warm black sand. But I wouldn't recommend swimming beyond waist-deep, especially if there are waves, as there can be riptides. After sunbathing, let's go to the next beach to watch the sunset.
We were sitting and thinking about which route to take through Anaga Park this time. There are dozens of them there. We decided to drive to the most romantic Benijo beach and walk along 2 routes and also explore some unofficial trails.
The most sensual beach on the island is Playa de Benijo. Time your visit during low tide, otherwise you won't see the beach. It's a nudist and free-spirited people's beach. Feel at one with nature. Make sure to visit a few hours before sunset as the sun disappears behind the mountains earlier. Your photos will be mind-blowing!
A hike through the atypical and less crowded part of Anaga Park in the north of Tenerife. In the middle of the hike, we'll take a dip at a secluded beach. In the mountains, we'll spot some goats and walk among the clouds.
Gran Canaria is often called a beach paradise. It enjoys a pleasant temperature of around 23-25°C all year round, and the sky is rarely cloudy. Among the Canary Islands, it has no rivals when it comes to the number of well-equipped beaches.
The most famous, vibrant, and unique attraction on the island of Gran Canaria is the archaeological park in Gáldar: a museum and "painted cave" called Cueva Pintada.
Another international airport in the Canary Islands is located on the eastern side of Gran Canaria island. The airport has one terminal that handles both domestic and international flights.
The Cathedral of Santa Ana is the most significant architectural monument of Gran Canaria. It is located in the island's capital, in the historic district of Vegueta.
