Essential Information: When you go and what you’ll need
The long sandy beach runs alongside shallow, warm waters making it the ideal destination for families with young children. The lively promenade that backs the sand provides ideal lunch and dinner spots and stretches all the way to neighbouring Puerto del Carmen. Sit back on a sunbed or indulge in water-based activities such as windsurfing and pedalos.
Wander Along The Seafront
Walk along the promenade to Matagorda which has a stunning beach, great surf and several shops. From here you can rent a bicycle and explore the surrounding countryside or simply relax in one of its many welcoming bars. Head in the other direction to Puerto del Carmen and enjoy the snorkelling on offer.
Party in Puerto del Carmen
Puerto del Carmen is the place to go if you're looking for a party. You'll find lively bars, pubs and clubs around Avenida de las Playas or you can hit the harbour for sophisticated bars and cocktails by the sea. If you want peace and quiet, why not head to a traditional taverna in the old town where you can wine and dine in an authentic atmosphere?
Visit Timanfaya Park
Eager for an excursion? Admire the area's natural beauty at the Timanfaya National Park and discover its eclectic mix of craters and peaks. If you're travelling as a two, hop on the adult-only catamaran (complete with unlimited wine) and head to Papagayo Bay for a swim in the Atlantic. Or take the kids to Rancho Texas where you can look out for wild white tigers, iguanas, armadillos and pumas.
