Playas de Arona
Los Cristianos
The beach has fine golden sand, ideal for lying on and sunbathing, although if you prefer you can also hire a sun lounger and parasol.
It is characterised for being a beach with calm waters, ideal to go with children and at any time of the year, as on the southern slope of the island of Tenerife the weather is usually good all year round.
The beach has several volleyball nets, and it is very common for volleyball championships to be organised throughout the year.
It is one of the twelve beaches in Tenerife adapted for disabled people using wheelchairs, which is why it has been defined as an “Accessible Beach” by the Cabildo of Tenerife, with reserved parking, showers, ramps and access walkways.
Very close to the beach is the car park in the seaport area, which is probably one of the best places to park to go to the beach, but bear in mind that it is a pay car park. You can also wander around the nearby streets and look for parking, which will take longer. Sometimes it is preferable to park a little further away and walk to the beach.
This beach in Tenerife has a Red Cross lifeguard point and is a supervised beach with lifeguards. However, it is always advisable to be cautious of the sea and to observe the colour of the flag that flies on the beach. Remember the meaning of the colour code of the flag:
Green flag : Suitable for bathing
Yellow flag : Caution is advised
Red flag : Swimming prohibited
Reviews
Beach of Los Cristianos
“Beautiful. Clear sand. Has a wave breaker. No dogs. Beach chairs and umbrellas for rent. Beach volleyball court. Quieter than Playa las Vistas. Good for a day trip. Shops and restaurants next door”.
“Wonderful white sandy beach, quiet place, especially for bathing with children, without strong waves. Well-equipped place with toilets and showers, restaurants and shops, as well as accommodation overlooking the beach. In the dark of the night it becomes a very romantic beach”.
“Beautiful beach in the south of Tenerife, incredible temperature, with all the services”.
