Stone Mother
I found the statue I've been looking for a very long time. It's called Stone Mother (Madre de piedra), they say it resembles Putin. It's located in Santa Ursula, Tenerife. I made several attempts to find this statue, and this time we were lucky. The sculpture-flowerbed sits in a small park called Jardin Social La Quinta. There's a large parking lot nearby. If you're in Puerto de la Cruz, stop by and take some pictures.
Lago Martiánez
Lago Martianez is an outdoor pool complex located in Puerto de la Cruz. Since the north of Tenerife constantly experiences waves, such a complex is not only appropriate but also necessary. All the pools are filled with ocean water.
Fuerteventura Airport
The only airport in Fuerteventura is located in the eastern part of the island, between the Castillo Caleta de Fuste resort (7 km) and the capital city of Puerto del Rosario (5 km). Fuerteventura Airport is an international airport. Most international flights from the airport are to countries in the European Union. Domestic flights are predominantly to Madrid and the neighboring islands of Gran Canaria and Tenerife.
Lanzarote Airport
Lanzarote Airport (Aeropuerto de Lanzarote, ACE) is located on the coast of the island of the same name, part of the Canary Islands. It is situated five kilometers from the city of Arrecife, in the municipality of San Bartolome.
La Palma: Exploring the Cities
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.
7 Wonders of the Canary Islands
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 North Airport
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.
Abama Beach
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.
Carnival in Tenerife 2025
The main festival in Tenerife - the carnival - takes place in February. I have prepared a detailed manual with a schedule of events for you. Something interesting happens every day, but there are specific days when the carnival itself takes place. I wrote about this below.
Playa de Almáciga
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.
Pico del Inglés Viewpoint
This observation deck is considered by many tourists to be the best in the Anaga Rural Park.
Beautiful trail to the lighthouse along Anaga
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.
Beniho Beach
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!
The route to Antequera Beach in Anaga
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.
