Must-try dishes
Curry
La Cocina Hindú is a leading Indian restaurant in South Tenerife, located in Los Abrigos. It stands out for its blend of traditional dishes and fast service, without sacrificing authenticity. It's not a luxury restaurant, but rather a place designed for those craving intense, spicy flavours in a simple, friendly, and welcoming atmosphere, easily accessible from the streets of the fishing district—perfect for a stop after a day at the beach or a stroll.
Their menu includes various curries (chicken, lamb, and vegetarian options), spiced pulao-style rice dishes, kebabs, and yogurt-based dishes with mild spices, as well as classic accompaniments like naan (Indian bread) and samosas as appetizers. They also offer their own sauces, some with a touch of spice, that complement each dish and allow diners to adjust the intensity to their liking. Local seafood ceviches aren't featured here; instead, spices reign supreme, with a blend of turmeric, cumin, chili, and cardamom, dishes that smell of curry, and the creamy texture of a good masala curry.
The menu includes curries of various kinds (chicken, lamb, and vegetarian), spiced rice dishes, kebabs, and yogurt-based dishes with mild spices. The restaurant is characterized by its friendly and attentive service, with chefs who have experienced Indian cuisine firsthand and strive to maintain authentic flavours: they don't overdo it with unnecessary fusions, but rather ensure that each dish reflects what it should be. Vegetarian dishes are truly substantial, not just decorative: several vegetable curries, paneer (fresh cheese) in aromatic sauces, and lentil stews are among the standout offerings.
What sets it apart from other Indian restaurants in Tenerife? First, its balance between authenticity and speed: you can calmly order a flavourful, well-spiced curry without having to choose from a huge menu or wait for hours. Second, its focus on vegetarianism, recognizing it as a central element rather than an afterthought. And third, its adaptation to the local environment: they use fresh, locally sourced products whenever possible, which adds freshness without sacrificing the exotic character of the dishes.

Where to eat
Heladería Artesanal la Tejita
If you're in the La Tejita area and fancy something refreshing after the beach, this ice cream shop is a great place to stop. Here you'll find artisanal ice creams with a variety of delicious flavors, perfect for a quick treat while you're strolling or relaxing after a day at the beach. It's a simple, pleasant, and very convenient spot to indulge without any fuss.
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
Tunolandia Canarias
This is a distinctive plan on the island of Tenerife across all the playa and hotels, Tunolandia is one of these curiosities that are so popular. In the Valle de San Lorenzo, this space consists of a variety of tuneras, gastronomy, tradition and products based on high pico. Aquí puedes pasear entre cactus gigantes, probar mermeladas, licores o mojo de tuno y descubrir una cara mucho más rural y diferente del sur de la isla.
Beaches
Cuevas del Trigo
Cuevas del Trigo beach is one of those wild corners of southern Tenerife where you'll feel the island remains untouched. A secluded stretch of volcanic coastline, with natural caves carved into the rock and a tranquil atmosphere, it's ideal for disconnecting, taking leisurely strolls, and listening only to the sea and the wind.
Nightlife
Shopping
Miel Tament
Tament, which means "honey" in the Amazigh language, is an artisanal gem produced on the same estate that makes Nevales de Abona wine, using Canarian black bees. It is multifloral, pure, and deep golden in color, with a smooth texture and balanced sweetness. Although it doesn't have an official organic seal, it is produced using sustainable and traditional methods. Like the wines, this product can only be found at the San Isidro Farmers Market, at Elsa's stand.
Sports
Zona de calistenia en el Puerto de San Miguel
The Calistenia area of Puerto de San Miguel, in Amarilla Golf, is one of these locations that offers a complete experience. The park is beautiful and not particularly large, but it is just outside the sea, just like the port of sports, as it can be seen with views of the boats, the ocean and the volcanic landscape on the Costa Sur. A very tranquil location for outdoor activities in the more urban atmosphere of other parks.
Trekking
Sendero Montaña Roja
Walking the circular route that starts in El Médano and heads toward Montaña Roja is like stepping into an otherworldly volcanic landscape: reddish sand, deep blue sea, and the wind that caresses you with every step. You can see World War II bunkers, aquatic birds, and panoramic views of the southern part of the island. You'll love it if you're looking for an easy hike with that "reconnect with nature" feel in southern Tenerife.
