Freiduría / Abacería La Mar

Candelaria

Must-try dishes
Fried foods and preserves

La Mar Grocery Store, located on Obispo Pérez Cáceres Street in Candelaria, is an establishment that skillfully blends the charm of seafood cuisine with the warmth of a traditional shop. The term "abacería" (grocery store) refers to those old neighborhood shops where the shopkeeper offered basic, artisanal groceries and essential goods—today, this space maintains that essence by offering tapas, high-quality preserves, and fried seafood.

In this establishment, you'll experience Andalusian flavors that transport you: crispy fried fish, marinated dogfish, squid, cuttlefish, smoked anchovies, platters of Payoyo cheese, and even exquisite semi-preserved fish. These are the kinds of products that resonate with quality, freshness, and that distinctive Cadiz identity that you can feel in every bite. The service is warm, friendly, and attentive; the atmosphere is welcoming and bright, with bar tables and family seating that invite you to sit and enjoy at your leisure.

Its location, right on a key pedestrian street in the historic center, makes it an almost unavoidable stop for those strolling towards the basilica. It's also accessible, family-friendly, and highly rated by locals and visitors alike—many highlight its excellent value and friendly service. Freiduría / Abacería La Mar combines tradition, authentic flavor, and that old-fashioned charm of a corner shop, reinvented with a contemporary, nautical twist.

Where to eat

Puzol

Puzol is a bar-restaurant in Güímar with a homey feel: traditional Canarian dishes such as roast pork leg, goat meat, squid, and carne fiesta (a traditional Canarian stew). The atmosphere is friendly, the service is very attentive, and it has a covered terrace perfect for relaxing after a long drive or enjoying a leisurely lunch.

What to see

Bocacangrejo

Bocacangrejo is a small fishing village on the northeast coast of Tenerife, very close to Santa Cruz, where the sea sets the pace and the houses face directly onto the Atlantic. Here you'll find a tranquil atmosphere, volcanic coves, waterfront terraces, and a distinct sense of a lived-in village. It's a place to stroll slowly, gaze at the sea, and enjoy leisurely meals.

Activities

Forestal Park Tenerife

An adventure awaits you among the trees at Forestal Park Tenerife: enormous zip lines, suspension bridges, and climbing nets in the heart of the Las Lagunetas pine forest. It's perfect if you want to disconnect from the beach, breathe fresh air, and get your adrenaline pumping with family or friends.

Beaches

Playa de la Nea

La Nea Beach in Radazul is a volcanic black sand beach perfect for lingering. It's very close to Santa Cruz, but the atmosphere here is calmer, with a breakwater that softens the waves and a promenade along the entire shore. It's a comfortable beach, well-integrated into the surroundings and very popular with locals.

Nightlife
Shopping

7 Islas 7 Quesos

At 7 Islas 7 Quesos, you'll feel like you've stepped into a little paradise for cheese lovers. They offer Canarian products made from sheep, goat, and mixed cheeses, from fresh to semi-cured, as well as artisanal spreads and almogrotes, including a pistachio one that will win you over. The service is friendly and they'll advise you based on your preferences. If you're looking for quality, authentic cheeses, and a personal touch, this is the place.

Sports

Barranquismo Barranco Hondo

Barranco Hondo, in the municipality of Candelaria, offers an ideal canyoning experience for those seeking adventure in a natural, uncrowded setting. Its route combines rappels, trail sections, and natural pools, surrounded by volcanic walls covered in native vegetation. It is a technical and visually spectacular descent, where you can appreciate the silence and power of the southeastern Tenerife landscape.

Trekking

Malpais de Guimar

The Malpaís de Güímar is a nature reserve that protects a unique volcanic landscape on the east coast of Tenerife. Its trails run through lava fields, volcanic cones, and areas of tabaiba and cardon ferns, offering a spectacular contrast with the intense blue of the Atlantic. It's an ideal place for leisurely walks, birdwatching, and photographing a nearly untouched environment, where nature is revealed in its purest state.
