Puerto De La Cruz Holidays At Late Deals

Enjoy a unique view into traditional Canarian life

Puerto De La Cruz holidays offer a unique view into traditional Canarian life. This small traditional fishing village has seen British guests soak up the sun on its dark volcanic beaches since the 19th century yet maintained its original charm. Puerto De La Cruz, which translates in English as ‘Crossport’, is situated on the northern coast of the island and takes just over an hour to reach from Tenerife South Airport.

During the day fishermen can be seen bringing their morning catches to the shorelines, whilst the inland view is of the picturesque sun soaked hills. A stroll through the cobbled streets of Puerto De La Cruz is highly recommended to experience the authenticity of the resort. The old town is one of the very few areas which attract locals and tourists alike with its traditional cuisine and amazing fresh seafood dishes.

 

Experience Tenerife's most exciting attractions

If a beach holiday is more your style then relaxing on the must see dark, volcanic sands of Puerto De La Cruz coastline is ideal. Slightly cooler than the southern resorts the beach is perfect for unwinding and is unique in its appearance. Here you can go snorkelling in the shallows or take advantage of the breeze and learn how to windsurf. Alternatively you can take a short journey to the nearby Playa De Las Teresitas where the sand has been imported from the Sahara Desert or the Las Garistas for that all over tan only an ‘au naturale’ beach could offer.

For the more active among us, holidays in Puerto De La Cruz offer a range of exceptional opportunities to see Tenerife’s most exciting attractions. Take a day trip to Mount Teide or explore Lorro Parque, which translates to Parrot Park, for an incredible day up close with a range of animals. The saltwater pools and cascading waterfalls of Lido Martianez are a must for anyone wanting to relax, unwind and experience this truly amazing subtropical water park. This traditional fishing village has it all including the weather and over a century of happy visitors. Holidays to Puerto De Las Cruz are available to book here online at Latedeals.
