Canary Islands Ports

Arrecife is the capital of Lanzarote, the easternmost of the Canaries. The island is undoubtedly the most interesting of the whole archipelago: the intense volcanic activity has created a lunar landscape that makes it truly unique.

The most frequented place in Santa Cruz is "La Plaza de España" by the sea, where the building "Cabildo de Tenerife" stands. Castillo, the commercial street par excellance, of the city starts from "Plaza de la Candelaria" which is at the side. Behind it is the sizteenth century churchof "La Concepcion". Higher up stands the charming "Plaza del Principe", next to which is the eighteenth century "San Francisco" church and the convent which houses the Municipal Musseum of Fine Arts. Pilar street, where the eighteenth century church of the same name stands, starts from this square. This street leads to what is possibly the finest place in Santa Cruz, the park of "Garcia Sanabria" where lush trees from all ofer the world stand out from dense exotic vegetation.

Tenerife is probably one of the last European paradise isles. "Fascinating" is the word for this island. It offers lush forests, exotic fauna and flora, deserts, mountains, volcanos, sometimes snow, incredibly beautiful coastlines and spectacular beaches. And it's all just a mouse click away... virtually!

A walk though charming little villages will take you through the rugged terrain, with surprises in store around every bend in the road. The natural wealth of the whole Island is so impressive that it has, in fact, won the highest possible distinction as a protected natural space.
