Cruise to Ports of Tenerife!
The Port Authority of Santa Cruz de Tenerife manages five ports in four of the Canary Islands.
• Tenerife counts with two ports, 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 Sebastiαn 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 to the city centres.
The volcanic Canary Islands are one of the most well-known holiday destinations for Europeans, especially during winter time. Our temperature fluctuates between 16 and 21⁰C all year round. We offer the best weather in Europe thanks to our location in the Atlantic Ocean, a secure area within Europe, next to Africa and on the way to America.
The islands are highly connected to Europe and the Spanish mainland through daily and direct flights to Germany, Great Britain, France, Italy, Finland, Russia, Belgium and so on… 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.
