Top 10 Points of Interest & Landmarks in Canary Islands, Canary Islands

August 30, 2021 Frederic Celentano

The sun-drenched Canary Islands lie close to North Africa and have an exotic flavor of their own. Hundreds of volcanoes, rolling sand dunes, rich forests and rugged cliffs dapple these seven Atlantic gems. Catch a ferry to Lanzarote. Ride a camel through volcanic Timanfaya National Park. Take on Tenerife, home of Mount Teide, Spain's tallest peak. Romp Grand Canary's beaches or hike La Gomera's Garajonay National Park. More adventures await on tiny El Hierro, verdant La Palma and peaceful Fuerteventura.

Bosque del Cedro

Reviewed By kattullus - Stockholm, Sweden

We walked for a day from Hermigua more or less following the El Cedro stream passing the waterfall, making a roundabout south of El Cedro area and back to Hermigua. Several hiking alternatives but rather steep and only for the sure footed. Also easy walks are possible in this fascinating forest.

Tenerife Auditorium (Auditorio de Tenerife)

Auditorio de Tenerife is avant-guarde, in its’ architecture and its’ programme. An open space, communicative, that connects with everyone: jazz, opera, dance, rock, pop…

Very unique design and interesting to scrutinize at every angle. You can sit inside and order a coffee. It was very windy when we visited which forced us to leave earlier than we planned.

Calle Triana

Street with upscale shopping

Reviewed By 154rox - Stamford, United States

Anything you want is probably here, there are many restaurants along the way and no cars so walking is easy and leisurely. Lots of local shops. Try cafe SOL for coffee. Nice service and presentation and a good energy boost along the way. Very fair prices.

Salinas Marinas de Fuencaliente

Reviewed By CheshireladChester - Chester, United Kingdom

Took the bus here from our hotel, about €3 each way for the two of us. The salt flats are a self sufficient business with walks around the outside of the salt pans. There are plenty of information boards to read on the way around in multiple languages to give you a better understanding of what you are looking at. It doesn’t take long to complete the walk, perhaps 45 minutes. There is also a restaurant and small shop to pick up products and have a drink/food. Lovely views and some interesting content. Worth a visit I’d say.

The access to caves when the tide is low is quite something. The beach is good and the sunsets are awesome. Getting there by car is not a problem.

Mirador Morro Velosa

Reviewed By L7768EQdavidd - Devon, United Kingdom

Friday 13th November and we came across this is a scenic view point, on the top of Morro de la Cruz, while driving from Valle de Santa Ines to Betancuria. The road leading up to the Mirador is blocked with a barrier across it, however, there is limited parking in front of the barrier. Ignore the opening times displayed, they are wrong, sadly the Mirador is permanently closed. It is possible to walk up the road to where the Mirador is. It is a good 20 minute walk up steep road to the top. Previously the building was boarded up, but this has been removed, ripped down, so it was possible to walk around the Mirador and its verandas and experience the incredible views From here we got amazing views of the northern area of the island with an artist's palette of colour. We also could see the dunes as far as Corralejo along with the villages of el Cotillo, La Oliva and Antigua. We did walk a few extra metres to the top of the mountain, Morro de la, Cruz, which is at 676 metres above sea level It is disappointing that the mirador building is closed, however, it is still possible to enjoy the views, so definitely worth the effort of the walk up After our visit checked out the meaning of  mirador, which is a  turret or tower attached to a building and providing an extensive view.

Anfi Playa

Reviewed By highimpactuk - Welwyn Garden City, United Kingdom

One of the best beaches on the island, it was developed with sand imported from the caribbean as part of the Anfi del Mar resort. It is a great place to spend time - made even better with less-crowded, socially distanced sunbeds when we visited.

Excellent market to visit and experience a traditional atmosphere featuring many locally produced products. Unfortunately we were on a cruise ship and only in Tenerife fo the day so not able to take away some of the amazing fresh fish.

Well worth a visit for the architecture alone. Smallish exhibition space with edgy contemporary and varied content. Very restorative.
