The surf is interesting as there seem to be 2 sandbanks. One furthers outside and one closer to the Beach. I have seen people catching waves on both. I wasn't able to catch waves at the beach but outside there were some really nice waves! The beach is pretty long has plenty of space, lifeguard, toilet & shower and a small store. There is parking directly at the beach but it's a bit outside of cities etc. There is/was a tiny area for swimming as well but this Beach seems to be mostly about water sport (Surf and Bodyboarding)

We really enjoyed the north of the Island, the town and especially the park. The food seemed to be cheaper and the people were a lot friendlier. The park has been the best park I've visited in a while, I would highly recommend it

Visited on December 20, 2023. If you have the chance to do the hike to the top of Spain's highest…read morepeak, DO IT! You have to go with a guided tour and heard there might even be fewer spots to climb to the top as hikers love to take some of the flora as souvenirs. Def try to book weeks ahead. The views are still fantastic from the top of the cable car area. The guided hike starts where the cable car drops you off. It's not difficult and the panoramic views above the clouds are amazing - VERY peaceful. Make sure to stand at the very tippy top (a very small area for literally a few people; everyone gets a selfie from there). On the hike you also see & smell the fumaroles and the lovely, multi-colored landscape (yellow, white & reddish rocks). The guide always tells people to put their hand over a nearby fumarole so you feel just how hot the vapors can be. There's also a museum at the bottom of the cable car area which takes a creative spin on the creation of Mount Teide. You can even buy the comic book "Teide Legend"!

My wife and I visited Loro Parque in Puerto de la Cruz while on our honeymoon, and honestly, it was…read moreone of the highlights of our trip. I just kept thinking how much my 9-year-old would have loved it too -- there's so much to see and do for all ages. We spent about six hours there, but it really wasn't enough. From start to finish, it was amazing. All of the shows were fantastic -- the orcas, sea lions, and dolphins were incredible to watch, and it was lovely to see how well cared for and happy the animals seemed. The staff clearly put a lot of effort into making the experience both entertaining and educational. Beyond the shows, the park itself is absolutely beautiful. The Aquarium is stunning, especially the shark tunnel, and the Planet Penguin exhibit -- complete with real snow -- was just brilliant. We also loved the Katandra Treetops aviary, where you can walk through bridges surrounded by tropical birds and lush greenery. Everywhere you go, the grounds are spotless and perfectly maintained. There are so many other animals and attractions to enjoy -- gorillas, tigers, parrots, orchids, and tropical gardens. The whole place is laid out really well, and it's easy to get around. The food options are good too, with plenty of places to grab a drink or a snack between shows. Everything about Loro Parque feels organised and professional, but also relaxed and welcoming. You can tell they genuinely care about animal welfare, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. My only advice is to arrive early and plan your route around the show times -- that way you can see everything without rushing. Overall, it was an unforgettable day and great value for money. We'll definitely go back on our next visit -- and next time, I'll be bringing my 9-year-old!
