<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nOn the Northsite from the Anagamountains is Taganana, a small and also unspoilt mountainvillage and at the coast the unknown and natural beaches \u201eBenijos\u201c and \u201eAlm\u00e1ciga\u201c, the easterly part of the Island, where the road ends. It is recommended to drive back through the woods of Mercedes to La Laguna. This is a century old Forest with Pine-trees, Laurel, Broom and Heather. A beautiful Barbeque-place \u201eLlanos los Viejos\u201c in the middle of the Forest, invites for a break.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>La Laguna <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nLa Laguna is the second largest city on the island and since 2006 named World Heritage of the UNESCO and at the same time the University town of the Island. The inner city is preserved in colonial style and recommended is a walk through the different pedestrian streets with small and family shops, some of which still sustain. There is also the Cathedral and countless churches and monastery. Many small \u201eTascas\u201c invite for a tasting of wine and tapas and fine pattisseries with fine pastrys and sweet delicasies. Who wants to enjoy the evening with the locals, there is an extensive offer of small Bars, Pubs, Tascas, some with life-music. Also the cultural offer is in La Laguna, with many exhibitions, Concerts and the Theater \u201eTeatro Real\u201c. Worth seeing are in April the Easter Processions, yet after a hundreds years old tradition, the use is still accomplished, during day and night. One of the most important celebrations is also there in September \u201eFiesta del Cristo\u201c.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Bajamar and Punta del Hidalgo <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nTo La Laguna belong the small holiday resorts Bajamar and Punta de Hidalgo. Bajamar is well known because of its various open seawaterpools along the newbuild beach-promenade and the small beach. Protected by the Anaga Mountains the climate is very mild and stable throughout the year. If looking for a quiet and relaxing holiday, it is possible to find a private holiday home, sometimes with pool, for reasonable rental rates. Between Bajamar and Punta del Hidalgo lies the beach \u201ePlaya El Arenal\u201c an extensive fine lonely lava beach, only visited by locals in the summermonths. Punta de Hidalgo is characterized in particular because of the Lavacoast and the tradional Fishrestaurants, with a daily supply at the small harbour. Because the road stops at the Lighthouse of Punta de Hidalgo, it is recommended for the way back via El Boquer\u00f3n, to take the country road direction Tacoronte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These Floral-carpets are one of the most important troughout Spain and attracts every year hundreds of Visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Puerto de la Cruz <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nAdjacent to La Orotava is Puerto de la Cruz, the cradle of tourism of the Canarys. In the midst of Bananaplantations, surrounded by sub-tropical Plants and Flowers is the Resort at the North-Coast of Tenerife. Locals and Tourists still live in a mixed City, which still has a typical Canarian Ambience. Especially on the weekend one can enjoy a colorful hustle and bustle at the Beach Boardwalk \u201ePaseo de San Telmo\u201c or \u201ePlaza del Charco\u201c. Puerto de la Cruz has a small fisher harbour, the artificial beach \u201ePlaya Jardin\u201c and the famous Seawaterswimmingpools \u201eLago de Martianez\u201c.

To Icod belongs the \u201eLa Cueva del Viento\u201c, the 3rd worldwide biggest Vulcanic, and the biggest from Europe with 18m length.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Garachico, Los Silos, Buenavista and El Tanque <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nRecommendable is a detour in the so-called \u201cIsla Baja\u201d, the nortwest-coast of the Island, to which Garachico, Los Silos, Buenaviste del Norte and El Tanque, belong. This Region distinguishes because of the original way of life. Garachico is a picturesque Fishervillage, visited by the locals in the weekend for a stroll or having a meal. A Spectacle is, when the wild North Sea splashes up on the Beach Promenade. To Garachico belongs also the small resettlement \u201cLa Caleta de Interi\u00e1n\u201d with a new landscaped sandy beach, where you can rent apartments in first line. Los Silos and Buenavista deL Norte are still very unspoilt Places, and live mainly from Agriculture. A Golf course and Hotel complex were only recently, build and discreetly integrated in the Landscape. Sought-after are the Private Holidayhomes, to enjoy in tranquility this Idyll. A detour to the Lighthouse at the Northwest Point of the Island, to \u201cLa Punta del Teno\u201d and the protected Coast, are very advisable. El Tanque is one of the three Municipalitys of the Island without a Coastline. Dominated by a predominantly fresh and moist Climate, one finds \u201cPuerto de Erjos\u201d, the North-South-Border of the Island, with an incredible Contrast both climatic and landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\nLet us know in comments what else you think is a must to see in Tenerife.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
