Top 10 beaches in Tenerife

Golden sand or black sand, quiet and far away or lively and close, sheltered or windy, between
rocks or trees… the beaches of Tenerife offer you endless options to choose from, from which you
will never go wrong, as each one offers you a completely unique experience, however, to make
your choice easier, we leave you this list where we hope you find your favorite beach.


PLAYA DE BENIJO

This wild beach of black sand will take your breath away, not only for its landscape of volcanic rocks, but also for the way to get there, which requires crossing the Anaga massif, a green and lush laurel forest that ends where the beaches begin.

PLAYA EL BOLLULLO

Among the banana plantations in the north of Tenerife we find this black sand beach, one of the favorites of all travelers, thanks not only to its sand but also to its crystalline water and its fun waves, which makes it the ideal beach to play with the waves.

PLAYA EL MEDANO

Being one of the best known and most accessible beaches on the island, El Medano beach guarantees a unique atmosphere, where thanks to the wind it is possible to practice numerous water sports or take a pleasant walk along the coastline.

PLAYA DE MASCA

This completely wild beach can only be reached with good hiking boots or a boat, but without a doubt the adventure to get there is worth it, as this paradisiacal beach in the middle of the Masca ravine will be unforgettable.

PLAYA DE LAS TERESITAS

Being one of the best known beaches in Tenerife, this beach is located only 8 kilometers from the capital Santa Cruz. With more than a kilometer of golden sand, easy access and a large parking area, it is undoubtedly one of the best beaches in the island.

PLAYA DE LOS GUÍOS

Located on the western tip of the island, is this beach where the imposing cliffs of Los Gigantes stand out. It is worth spending some time on the beach admiring its beauty from a completely new perspective.

PLAYA DE PUNTA DE TENO

This small black sand beach of barely 30 meters long is worth to visit, not only for the blue of its water but also for its location, a magical and charming corner of the island in the same lighthouse of Teno.

PLAYA EL DUQUE

Created for all visitors seeking tranquility, this beach offers a high standard and high quality enclave. Awarded with the blue flag distinction, this beach also has a beautiful seafront walk surrounded by all kinds of establishments that will make your visit unforgettable.

PLAYA JARDÍN EN EL PUERTO DE LA CRUZ

On the coast of El Puerto de la Cruz, as its name indicates, this large black sand beach is surrounded by endless green areas, which make it an ideal place for a stroll.

PLAYA DEL PUERTITO

This small beach away from most of the tourist influence is located in a small fishing district, where there is a unique natural enclave formed by a marine micro-reserve frequented by green turtles, which, with a little luck, will approach to greet visitors.
