Los Cristianos
Los Cristianos
Los Cristianos is one of the most popular spots in southern Tenerife, and it's no coincidence. It began as a humble fishing village and, over the years, has transformed into a vibrant tourist hub that maintains some of its original identity. Unlike other areas, here you can still see small boats fishing near the coast, local markets, and locals who have been greeting each other on the streets their whole lives.
It has several urban beaches, such as Playa de Los Cristianos and Playa de Las Vistas, with calm waters and golden sand, ideal for families, seniors, or those looking for a comfortable swim without the waves. The wide promenade connects with other coastal areas and is lined with terraces, cafes, ice cream shops, and shops, perfect for a stroll at sunset or a leisurely drink.
It is also the departure point for ferries to La Gomera, El Hierro, and La Palma, giving it a bustling port feel. There are also options for boat trips, whale watching, and water sports. And if you move a little further from the city center, you'll find quieter, more residential areas where life moves at a different pace.
Los Cristianos is accessible, convenient, and full of options. A place where you can spend the whole day without moving too far, but also use it as a base to explore the south of the island. It has everything without losing its relaxed, coastal feel, with a curious mix of touristy and everyday life.

Where to eat
La Comedia
If you're looking for a place in Las Galletas where you can eat well without spending a lot, La Comedia is one of those bars that works really well for everyday meals. The main attraction here is their set menu for €10.99, which includes a starter, main course, drink, and dessert. It's a great option for a quick, varied, and affordable meal, with homemade dishes and a full menu for those who prefer something different.
What to see
La Hoya
The hamlet of La Hoya, in San Miguel de Abona, is one of those places that helps you understand what life was like in southern Tenerife before tourism. Declared a Site of Cultural Interest as an Ethnological Site, it preserves traditional architecture, historic paths, water sources, and agricultural terraces in a rural setting that has changed very little over time.
Activities
A.O.C. PETANCA, LOS CRISTIANOS
The A.O.C. Petanca Los Cristianos is a veteran club in the south of Tenerife, right across from the beach, where passion for this traditional sport is in the air. Located in a quiet, sunny area, it brings together local and visiting players looking for a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. More than just a court, it's a social meeting place where camaraderie, laughter, and healthy competition keep alive a deeply rooted custom in the Canary Islands.
Beaches
Playa de los Cristianos Puerto
Los Cristianos Beach, next to the port of the same name, is one of the most iconic beaches in southern Tenerife. Protected from the waves by the pier, it offers calm waters and golden sand, perfect for swimming and strolling. From the shore, you can observe the activity of the fishing port and the departure of ferries to La Gomera, combining a local atmosphere with the maritime charm of a traditional coastal town.
Nightlife
Roca Blanca
This beach club, located right on the seafront in one of the quietest areas of Los Cristianos, is ideal for enjoying a leisurely cocktail and stretching out the afternoon until sunset. It features a terrace with tables, a swimming pool, and Balinese beds, which should be reserved in advance. The atmosphere is relaxed, with music and a DJ, perfect for quiet get-togethers with friends or even for working from home with ocean views. It's not a place for formal dining, but rather for savoring the experience, the friendly service, and the sunset as the main attraction.
Shopping
