Los Cristianos is situated in the south of the island of Tenerife just fifteen minutes from the Reine Sofia airport.

Unlike its bustling neighbour, Playa de las Americas, this pretty town has a history that predates the tourist boom of the 1970’s and 80’s.

For many years this holiday hub was a quiet fishing village and if you look hard you can still see evidence of its humble origins in the typical Canarian architecture of the older buildings.

Nowadays however, the town offers a vibrant holiday experience with its two golden sand beaches, multitude of bars and restaurants and its year round sunny climate. There is a wealth of accommodation to suit all budgets including hotels, self catering apartments and Timeshare resorts.

There are also a wealth of excursions focused around the town’s busy port including dolphin and whale watching as well as game fishing trips and party cruises.
