The coastline of the island is very varied and is almost 240 km.
The outskirts of the island are therefore rich in many charming coves and numerous beaches, with bright (on the south) and black, volcanic (on the north) sand.
The Canary Islands pride themselves on being one of the cleanest beaches in Europe. Tenerife actually has quite a few small ones, but beautiful beaches.
Tenerife has approx 358 kilometers of coastline, lots of natural and some man-made beaches.
There are slightly more beaches in the south of Tenerife than in the north. The north of the island has a steeper coast and in many places ends with sudden bluffs.
The south has a smoother and easier descent into the water. A novelty for tourists visiting Tenerife for the first time is the view of black volcanic sand. These are the beaches, which were shaped by the forces of nature.

La Arena Beach
The picturesque resort of Los Gigantes in the west of the island, has a small beach with exotic black sand and is one of the cleanest beaches on the island. This part of the island also boasts the best climate.
La Americas Beach
This is the place where most tourists come. Along the beaches of Las Americas runs a vast promenade similar to the promenade in Miami, Florida. Most of the beaches are well kept. There is a series of several separate beaches, to be precise, Bobo Beach, Torviscas Beach, Troya itd beach, but it is actually one, a very long beach along the coast, so that only a few minutes' walk separates one beach from the other.

Town near Las Americas, the second most visited place in Tenerife, boasting equally beautiful beaches, but larger than in Las Americas including the largest beach - Playa de Las Vistas.

A small town near the southern airport with extensive facilities, but a beach exposed to strong winds. It is a favorite place for windsurfers - the conditions are so good that international competitions are also held there.
lake martianez
It is true that the pool is not a beach, but we think this is the place, which is worth mentioning, because you can spend truly unforgettable moments there.
