Los Gigantes is situated in a stunning location on the southwest of the island. The little beach of black volcanic sand is cosseted by cliffs and the clear waters are excellent for snorkelling. The marina is lined with bars and restaurants and the nightlife here is low-key ideal for those seeking a more relaxing holiday. This is a good base for exploring more of Tenerife and a trek through the incredible scenery of the Masca Valley is a must. Some parts of the resort are hilly in nature and may be unsuitable for those who are less mobile.
There is a small beach of black volcanic sand immediately below the cliffs of Los Gigantes, and another at neighbouring Puerto de Santiago.
In keeping with the relaxed character of the resort, the nightlife is low key and found mainly in the local bars. Try a glass of Ronmiel - a Canarian blend of spirit and palm sap, as the sun goes down over the stunning scenery of Los Gigantes.
