Tenerife is a paradise for lovers of the sea, sun and nature. From wide beaches with fine sand, to wild coves, to unusual black volcanic beaches, the island offers a diversity that delights every traveler. In this guide, we’ll show you the 10 most beautiful beaches in Tenerife, give you tips on how to get to each one, and describe parking, attractions and additional tourist information.
Playa de Las Teresitas is one of the most famous and beautiful beaches in Tenerife. It is located in the San Andrés area, north of the capital, Santa Cruz de Tenerife. The beach is distinguished by its golden yellow sand, high palm tree line and calm waves, making it ideal for families and those seeking relaxation.
By car: Via TF-11 towards San Andrés, then signs to the beach.
By Bus: There are local lines from Santa Cruz that drive up to the beach area.
There is a large free parking lot at the beach, but it fills up quickly in high season, so we recommend arriving first thing in the morning.
An elegant beach located in Costa Adeje, one of Tenerife’s most touristy areas. Playa del Duque has a wide strip of sand, sun loungers along the promenade and plenty of restaurants and bars.
By car: Zdroga TF-1 from Adeje or Guia de Isora, then local signs.
By Bus: Lines 111/355 from various cities.
Along the beach there are large free parking lots and paid parking lots at the Corner Center and Centro Comercial Plaza del Duque shopping centers.

By car: TF-1 → TF-643 towards El Médano.
There are plenty of free parking spaces in the city. However, it is also crowded. Driving along the coast toward playa la Tejita, you can usually find a parking space without a problem.
