Puerto de la Cruz is one of the most popular resorts on the northern side of the island of Tenerife, where you can relax for every taste and budget. Unlike the bustling Las Americas, Puerto de la Cruz has its own noble appearance, stunning nature, an abundance of green vegetation and flowers, as well as peaceful tranquility.
In the old days, this city was the center of the island and the main resort. But with the development of the southern coast, the construction of large hotels and a new airport, the bulk of travelers moved to Las Americas and the neighboring resort towns.
Although the south of Tenerife offers warmer, calm weather and a swimming season all year round, northern Puerto de la Cruz offers unique opportunities for an active pastime. This format will be of interest to those who do not want to be limited to just lying on the beach with occasional movements to nearby nightclubs.
The North of Tenerife offers excellent conditions for surfing, food tourism, hiking and excursions.
In the south of the island, it is difficult to find catering establishments where guests are offered something more serious than standard burgers, pizza and other European cuisine. While Puerto de la Cruz can offer its guests delicious seafood, meat, vegetables, made in the best traditions of the island and Spanish cuisine. For example, near the picturesque Jardin Beach, there is a whole line of cafes with authentic interiors, excellent service and amazing specialties. The restaurants offer breathtaking views of the ocean and surfers scurrying along the waves. You don't get tired of enjoying this format of relaxation, and a meal accompanied by the sound of the surf will bring twice as much pleasure.
The climate of Puerto de la Cruz is suitable for those who do not tolerate heat. It is cooler in summer than on the south coast. Constant fresh air is provided by a high level of humidity. The same circumstance contributes to the rapid development of all kinds of exotic vegetation. Many vacationers in the south often move north to escape the heat.
The ocean in Puerto de la Cruz, in comparison with the obedient surface of the south, is a stormy element. Swimming in open waters can be unsafe. Therefore, many people prefer to enjoy water treatments in the artificial pools of Lago Martianez, which are filled with sea water.
