Playa Jardin
Puerto de la Cruz
Playa Jardín isn't just a beach; it's an experience in itself. Located in Puerto de la Cruz, this gem in northern Tenerife stretches across three coves: Playa del Castillo, Playa Chica, and Punta Brava. Its soft, warm, black volcanic sand is ideal for sunbathing while listening to the crashing of the sea. Lanzarote artist César Manrique designed this setting, integrating gardens with native vegetation, waterfalls, rock caves, and winding paths that connect each area as if walking through an open-air natural gallery.
The promenade that borders the beach is full of spots to sit, have a drink, or simply take in the surroundings. There are cafes, bars, and small stalls, as well as garden areas with benches and children's playgrounds. This makes it a very popular beach for families, couples, and tourists looking to combine relaxation with urban convenience. It also has all the necessary services: showers, restrooms, sun lounger and umbrella rentals, lifeguards, and access adapted for people with reduced mobility.
Despite being close to the city center, it maintains a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. On clear days, you can see the majestic Mount Teide looming in the distance from the sand. Although the sea can be choppy, especially at the ends, there are areas protected by breakwaters that allow for safe swimming.
Playa Jardín is perfect for spending the whole day: you can start with a morning swim, eat at one of the nearby restaurants, and end by watching the sunset to the sound of the waves. If you're looking for a mix of beach, art, vegetation, and an authentic northern Tenerife atmosphere, this is the ideal place.

Where to eat
Persia Tenerife
If you're looking to try something different in Puerto de la Cruz, this restaurant offers a taste of the Middle East without leaving the historic center. Here you'll find Persian cuisine bursting with intense aromas, where saffron, fresh herbs, yogurt, and nuts define the character of the dishes. I love it because it doesn't try too hard to be a tourist: it invites you to discover authentic Iranian flavors in a warm and relaxed atmosphere.
What to see
Escalera de Agatha Christie
If you love literature, this staircase will bring a smile to your face. Right on the Paseo San Amaro, you'll see steps transformed into the spines of Agatha Christie books, painted in vibrant colors and bearing recognizable titles. It's a tribute to her visit to Tenerife in 1927. When you climb them, you're not just walking; you're traversing a part of her history and her connection to Puerto de la Cruz.
Activities
La Guarida del Pirata
At The Pirate's Lair, you don't come to just watch: you come to play, explore, and become part of a story. It's an outdoor family adventure park in Los Realejos, designed for birthdays and experiences where children and adults solve riddles, follow pirate maps, and live a real adventure in the heart of nature.
Beaches
Playa el Ancón
El Ancón beach in La Orotava welcomes you with its dark volcanic sand and a deep blue sea that shifts with the light. It's a wide beach with lively waves and a natural setting that invites you to stroll, gaze at the horizon, and feel the power of the Atlantic. Ideal if you love authentic, unspoiled beaches with a pristine volcanic landscape.
Nightlife
Shopping
Las Llanadas
If you enjoy discovering local products directly from their source, this small artisanal cheese factory in Los Realejos is one of those places where cheese is still made the traditional way. They work primarily with goat's milk and produce fresh, semi-cured, and smoked cheeses, as well as ricotta and other dairy products. It's a place closely linked to the primary sector of northern Tenerife, where the authentic flavor of Canarian cheese takes center stage.
Sports
Barranquismo Barranco de Los Arcos
The Barranco de los Arcos, in La Orotava, is one of Tenerife's most impressive canyoning spots. Its route passes through volcanic rock landscapes, natural caves, and the famous rock arches that give the area its name. It combines rappelling, hiking, and geological exploration in a wild and breathtakingly beautiful setting. Ideal for adventurers seeking an authentic and unique experience in the heart of Tenerife's natural beauty.
Trekking
Sendero de Los Organos
The Los Órganos Trail, in the Corona Forestal Natural Park, is one of the most iconic routes in La Orotava. It passes through a thick, beautiful pine forest to reach the impressive basalt cliffs reminiscent of organ pipes, formed by volcanic action. With views of the Orotava Valley and Mount Teide, it is an ideal hike for nature lovers and those who enjoy peaceful hiking.
