Los Gigantes Holiday
Los Gigantes is situated in a stunning location on the southwest of the island. The little beach of black volcanic sand is cosseted by cliffs and the clear waters are excellent for snorkelling. The marina is lined with bars and restaurants and the nightlife here is low-key ideal for those seeking a more relaxing holiday. This is a good base for exploring more of Tenerife and a trek through the incredible scenery of the Masca Valley is a must. Some parts of the resort are hilly in nature and may be unsuitable for those who are less mobile.
Beaches
There is a small beach of black volcanic sand immediately below the cliffs of Los Gigantes, and another at neighbouring Puerto de Santiago.
Shopping
Although there is a limited choice of shops in Los Gigantes, they are adequate for those holiday essentials.
Nightlife
In keeping with the relaxed character of the resort, the nightlife is low key and found mainly in the local bars. Try a glass of Ronmiel - a Canarian blend of spirit and palm sap, as the sun goes down over the stunning scenery of Los Gigantes.
Local Specialities
The excellent local restaurants specialise in sea food with fresh fish always on the menu. Why not experience some of the superb local seafood, barbecued, and served with 'papas arrugadas' - wrinkled potatoes?
