Tenerife Ports

The Port Authority of Santa Cruz de Tenerife manages six ports in four of the Canary Islands.

• Tenerife counts with three ports, two of them receive cruise ships: Santa Cruz de Tenerife, the main cruise port in the Canary Islands, and Los Cristianos, located in the most touristic area.
• The Port of Santa Cruz de La Palma in La Palma island or “la Isla Bonita” (the Beautiful Island).
• The Port of San Sebastián de La Gomera in La Gomera island, last Columbus call before the America’s discovery.
• La Estaca in El Hierro island, known as the end of the world by the ancient conquerors. Our modern and accessible ports are settled next o the city centres.

Due to these connections, Santa Cruz de Tenerife provides an experienced home port to visit El Teide in Tenerife – UNESCO World Heritage List and the highest peak in Spain-, at the top of this volcano, you will find the most spectacular views of the Canary Islands. Be astonished under the clear sky of La Palma, chosen by the International Scientific Community as site for one of the most important Astrophysics Observatories in the Northern Hemisphere. In La Gomera, New World history and its quaternary forest of Laurisilva are waiting for you, but also the “silbo gomero”, the whistling language to communicate through ravines; and finally in El Hierro, be thrilled by an undiscovered new born volcano that is raising beneath the ocean and next to the island, where ancient lizards close related to dinosaurs live.
