Puerto de la Cruz is another vibrant resort in Tenerife. It is located on its northern part and is the main city for this zone. Puerto de la Cruz is quite a popular place due to its amazing nature and stunningly beautiful places. For many years, this particular city remained the main resort of Tenerife until the Las Americas tourist center was equipped, but even today it occupies a high position in popularity.
The old part of the resort has a special attraction. The local streets are paved with stones, which is so reminiscent of ancient buildings, among which there are many restaurants and cafes where you can have a great time in a romantic setting!
Particular attention is drawn to the old seaport, which offers wonderful views. And the building itself strikes the imagination with its antiquity and attractiveness.
As a great alternative to the natural black sand beaches on the coast, a complex of pools with sea water was built, located on the coast – “Lagos Martinez”. This place is loved by tourists and has become one of the most popular attractions in the city.
There are also two beaches in Puerto de la Cruz: Playa Martinez, a natural beach with black volcanic sand, and Playa Jardín, artificially created by people, it is he who is popular with locals and tourists. It is covered with black volcanic sand and terraced above it is a magnificent garden.
The most favorite place for tourists visiting Puerto de la Cruz is, of course, the famous Loro Park, where you can visit the show of parrots, dolphins, killer whales and see many different animals and plants. The city also has a unique botanical garden, founded in 1788 to acclimatize exotic plants and picturesque viewing platforms with stunning views.
