Travel to Costa Adeje, Spain - Costa Adeje Travel Guide

Our Editorial team's advice

In the southwest of the island, not far from Playa de las Américas, the region of Costa Adeje is home to the majority of the luxury hotels, with 13 5* hotels, generally the newest. Just over half a mile from the centre of Costa Adeje, you will find the 'Urbanizacion Playas del Duque', a tourist area with a large shopping centre, bars and restaurants.

To see

The public beach of Playa de Fanabe with its black volcanic sand. Puerto Colon Marina. The pedestrian promenade lined with various bars, restaurants, shops and arcades. Siam Park in Costa Adeje, which opened in 2008, is the largest water park in Europe.

To do

Water sports include parasailing, jet skiing and water skiing. Golf.

To think about

Make sure you wear sandals or flip-flops, not because of sea urchins, rocks or coral, but because of the black volcanic sand that quickly gets hot in the sun!

To avoid

Those who love interesting and cultural sites should avoid Costa Adeje, as it is a built-up, man-made seaside resort that lacks charm and authenticity. The north coast is better for trips to quieter, green areas.

To try

Of course there are Canarian specialities, but also international cuisine, especially in the hotels.

To bring back

As the Canary Islands are a tax free zone, you can buy many tax-free products, particularly from the number of huge shopping centres in the 'Urbanizacion Playas del Duque'.
