Near the southern tip of the island of La Palma is an underwater 'graveyard', with forty stone crosses erected on sand and rock. The dive to this unique place known as Las Cruces de Malpique is one of the most sought-after of the island and has been declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO. The currents are occasionally strong, there is excellent visibility and a maximum dive depth of 25 metres. With easy access from the shore, this dive surprises experienced divers and novices alike.

The picturesque village of El Mocanal, surrounded by pastures and crops, is in the north of El Hierro. This traditional hamlet is very close to El Pozo de las Calcosas, a bathing area with spectacular natural pools, perfect for cooling off with a quick dip in the crystal-clear water. It is also famous for the ‘carpets’ hand-created out of natural materials such as flowers, sand and dyed salt that cover the streets for Corpus Christi, which attracts a large number of visitors every year. A beautiful place that captivates anyone looking for peace and quiet and who enjoys the unique beauty of this charming hamlet and the surrounding landscape.

Playa Grande, located in Arico, is a beautiful, pleasant beach in the southeast of Tenerife. Its fine, golden sand and crystal-clear water with spectacular views of Mount Teide create an exceptionally delightful setting. We recommend visiting at low tide, as that will mean there is more space for walking, playing beachball or just sunbathing and enjoying a few relaxing dips in the sea, as there isn’t usually a current. When there is no wind, it’s a fabulous beach that is not frequented by many tourists but is popular with the locals, especially in summer.

Right in the centre of Arrecife in the east of Lanzarote, we find El Reducto Beach. On over half a kilometre of fine golden sand lies the best beach in the island’s capital city. The calm sea is sheltered by natural reefs, making it safe for children. Along the lively seafront promenade—with the characteristic coconut trees making it even more unique and appealing—are shops, cafés and restaurants that make it easy to combine a perfect day of beach and leisure.

The perfect place to disconnect and enjoy one of the prettiest spots on the island, and with enough waves for water sports such as surfing.

In the municipality of Guía de Isora, in the west of Tenerife, Playa de San Juan is visited by lots of tourists and locals alike, because the water is so calm, sheltered as it is from the wind and waves by its position next to the fishing port and the breakwater. In a semi-urban environment, the peacefulness of the area makes it a favourite beach for anyone looking for a perfect day of rest at any time of year. A seafront promenade runs along next to it, full of cafés and restaurants serving the best cuisine at the seaside.

Bathed by calm seas is one of the largest beaches on La Gomera. Playa de Santiago is in Alajeró, in the south of the island, next to the fishing port and marina.
