TOP 5 Secret Places in Tenerife

Each of us loves exciting travels, discovering hidden corners of the country or island where we go on holiday. We invite you to visit 5 secret places in Tenerife that will delight you.

1. El Tancón Cave in Puerto de Santiago/Puerto de Santiago, Cueva Tancón.

Simply a magical place. One of the best sea caves in the Canary Islands. The cave contains a huge pool of transparent water that connects through a channel to the ocean. There are days when strong sea currents and the extreme force of the water limit the visit to the cave, because, despite the fact that it is a dream place, it is very important to adapt to the warnings of nature.

2. Natural pools in Los Abrigos / Los Abrigos, Piscinas Naturales de Los Abrigos

The natural pools of this town in the south of Tenerife are the main attraction for bathers in the area. You can spend a whole day here. In addition, for the bravest, the volcanic rock that covers the pools has been shaped in such a way that users can easily jump from a height of about three meters - depending on the tide - without any danger.

Among the features of this area for bathers is a rock in the shape of an elephant, where the trunk and eyes of the animal fit perfectly into the relief of the rock.

3. Antequera Beach / Playa Antequera

One of the most secluded corners of Tenerife. You can get here by a difficult road or by sea. It is worth visiting at least to admire the extraordinary rocky landscapes of the Anaga mountain range, merging with the Antequera rock.

The most convenient way to get to the beach is to sail on one of the boats that leave from Santa Cruz and San Andres. You can also walk there, but you need to be in good physical condition and have the appropriate experience. It is best to get to this grey sand beach at low tide, as the sea is quite rough at high tide. Nudists are often found here.

4. Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Mirador de Cueva Roja

It is not a very crowded place. The Mirador (viewing platform) is located in Barrio Nuevo, a peripheral area of the city, where you can spend time in a pleasant environment. There is a parking lot for cars and motorcycles, a playground for children with swings, and benches so that the user can sit and enjoy the view of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. A pleasure for the senses. What amazes most about this little paradise is the panoramic view.

Fifteen meters from the observation deck you can see a large reddish mountain with a cave-shaped opening, which gives the name to the observation point itself: Red Cave.

To reach this fantastic viewpoint, you need to cross the Barrio Nuevo neighborhood towards the Los Campitos area.

5. Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Mirador de La Cruz

One of the best and most exclusive panoramic views of the capital of Tenerife is located at the top of one of the oldest neighbourhoods: El Barrio La Alegría.

From there you can see Anaga Avenue from start to finish, as well as Plaza de España, the Cabildo de Tenerife and the Auditorio de Santa Cruz.

On the mountain, a few meters above, where access is limited, there is a large cross. Hence the name that the inhabitants of La Alegría placed in the window of the neighborhood. To access this observer, you must enter the heart of the La Alegría neighborhood.

Have a nice trip!!!
