Punto Azul
Las Galletas
Must-try dishes
Ceviche
Tiradito
Yuca frita
Visiting Punto Azul in Las Galletas feels like discovering a Peruvian haven by the port: the scent of fresh lime, the glistening ceviche on the plate, and a menu that focuses on expertly prepared fish and seafood. I appreciate how they balance classic Peruvian dishes—ceviche, tiradito, leche de tigre—with more substantial plates and generous portions that work equally well for sharing or for a full meal. There are Nikkei influences and grilled preparations that showcase the kitchen's skill.
The restaurant exudes a welcoming atmosphere: attentive waiters, friendly service, and a mix of locals and visitors seeking good food without any pretension. The terrace overlooks the promenade, adding the extra touch of the sea breeze; sitting outside gives you the feeling of dining while gazing at the port and the gentle sway of the boats. Prices are generally reasonable for the quality and quantity—it's one of those places where you leave satisfied—which is why so many people return.
What sets Punto Azul apart is not only its Peruvian origins, but also its accessibility: dishes with well-defined flavors, simple yet effective presentations, and options ranging from seafood tapas to rice dishes and stews perfect for sharing. Customers especially appreciate dishes like the mixed ceviche, the octopus, and some grilled fish preparations; it's also common to see fusion dishes that combine island ingredients with South American techniques.
It's not a fine dining establishment, nor does it aspire to be: its strength lies in the honesty of the ingredients, the freshness of the fish, and a relaxed atmosphere that makes you want to linger. For me, Punto Azul is a great option if you're looking for seafood with a Peruvian touch, generous portions, and friendly service, all with the added advantage of being right by the sea.

Where to eat
D´Tapas
If you work in the Las Chafiras area and are looking for a simple place to have an early breakfast or a good lunch without spending a lot, Cafetería De Tapas is a very practical option. The place caters to local workers, so it opens early and is great for quick breakfasts and a set lunch menu for €11. The food is homemade, tasty, and well-prepared for the price, served in a clean and uncomplicated atmosphere.
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
BOX-FISH - Dive Shop
BOX-FISH is a diving, freediving, and spearfishing shop located in Costa del Silencio. It stands out for its extensive inventory, very competitive European prices, and fast delivery service to the Canary Islands (in-store and online). It offers equipment rentals, renowned brands, technical assistance, and friendly service. Ideal for both novice and experienced divers.
Sports
Circuito Motocross
The San Miguel de Abona Motocross Circuit is one of Tenerife's premier motocross venues. Its technically designed volcanic terrain combines jumps, tight turns, and fast sections, offering fun for both experienced and beginner riders. Located in an arid environment overlooking the sea, it is a popular meeting point for motorsports enthusiasts, with a local atmosphere, training sessions, and competitions throughout the year.
Trekking
Sendero Montaña de Chayofita
The Chayofita Mountain Trail in Los Cristianos is a simple, short route that offers one of the best panoramic views of southern Tenerife. Its route, just over a kilometer long, gently climbs an ancient volcanic cone to a peak overlooking Los Cristianos, Las Américas, and the Atlantic. It's ideal for a sunset walk, enjoying the tranquility and the cityscape from above.
