Los Cristianos was originally an old fishing village, colourful local boats and sea going yachts still remain but over the last 20 years Los Cristianos has been transformed into one of the most popular resorts in the Canary Islands. Attracting thousands of visitors every year the town has numerous hotels and holiday apartments which welcome hundreds of guests every year.
The busy town centre is closed to traffic and pedestrian walkways are bright with dozens of open air restaurants, cafes and bars. Los Cristianos is the prime shopping centre for the south of Tenerife with a large selection of shops
which cater for everyone on this duty free island. It's also worth noting that every Sunday there is a large open air market offering everything from watches and jewellery to clothing and music.
Los Cristianos has no shortage of places to eat and drink, bars and
restaurants line the promenade and the town centre offer a wide variety of
quality cuisine at prices that won't burn a hole in your pocket. A number of
fun pubs and karaoke bars provide welcoming evening entertainment seven nights
a week.
Ferries to the adjacent island of La Gomera leave regularly from Los
Cristianos harbour throughout the day and boat trips to see the whales and dolphins are available on the quayside along
with freshly caught fish and seafood.
