The best beaches in Tenerife

Are you thinking of escaping to Tenerife? This island has it all: mild weather all year round, spectacular beaches, unique volcanic landscapes, and an energy that forces you to disconnect. Surely for all these reasons, The Guardian selected it as one of the 5 best islands in the world to live on. If you are planning a holiday in Tenerife, here we tell you which are its best beaches and why Vincci Selección la Plantación del Sur 5* is your best option to enjoy them all.

Las Teresitas Beach

Located in the village of San Andrés, in the north of Tenerife, Las Teresitas Beach stretches for 1.3 kilometres, featuring golden sand imported from the Sahara and a landscape of palm trees. It is protected by a breakwater, which keeps the waters calm and makes it one of the safest beaches for children. This paradisiacal setting attracts thousands of tourists every year.

Benijo Beach

This natural gem is located in the heart of the Anaga Park. It is one of the most photographed beaches due to its volcanic sand and the imposing rocks emerging from the sea. You won’t find beach bars or tourist services, but instead a wild environment that impresses with its authenticity. To reach it, you will need to walk from the hamlet of Taganana. It is ideal if you are looking for breathtaking landscapes, especially at sunset.

Jardín Beach

Located in Puerto de la Cruz, Jardín Beach was designed by the renowned Canarian artist César Manrique. This beach represents the perfect integration between natural landscape and art, combining the typical volcanic scenery of the islands with cactus gardens and palm trees. After being closed for almost a year, this iconic beach has reopened to the public with an improved sanitation system.

Los Gigantes Beach

Located in the southwest of Tenerife and guarded by the imposing cliffs that share its name, reaching up to 800 metres high, the small Los Gigantes Beach has dark sand that contrasts with the ocean to create an unforgettable postcard. From this beach, boats depart for whale watching, an activity we highly recommend.

El Bollullo Beach

Its rugged and natural surroundings make it the perfect place if you are looking for tranquillity and direct contact with nature. Located east of Puerto de la Cruz, you will have to walk along a path through banana plantations to enjoy this landscape, which gives it a secluded atmosphere. It is not always suitable for swimming due to its strong waves.

Masca Beach

Located at the end of the famous Masca ravine, after a demanding hiking route, you will find this secluded cove of dark sand and volcanic rocks that offers a completely different experience from the rest of the beaches. It is designed for tourists with an adventurous spirit.

Las Américas Beach

Located in the southwest of the island, this beach is synonymous with fun. Thanks to its golden sand and wave-protected areas, it has become a very popular tourist spot, where you will find all kinds of water activities and multiple dining options: hotels, bars, nightclubs, and more. We especially recommend it if you are travelling in a group.
