Beaches in the north of Tenerife: Beauty and tranquillity

The beaches of the north of Tenerife, when we talk about them, we must take into account that we are on an island, an island of considerable size. One of the advantages of this is that not only are there many beaches, but they are also very different from each other.

The beaches of Tenerife differ in many ways:

  • Type of arena
  • Type of bathers
  • Type of environment

These differences are a determining factor in finding the right beach for you, your friends or your family!

Although the southern beaches are particularly popular, this does not mean that they are more beautiful than those of the rest of the island. In fact, among the best beaches in Tenerife, we find many beautiful beaches in the north, quiet, unpopulated and spectacular. But why not? Also beaches that provide a festive atmosphere without being extremely touristy.

Which beach in the north of Tenerife should I choose?

The choice of beaches in the north of Tenerife depends on personal taste. Each beach has something to offer, something different from any other beach on the island, so it is advisable to visit as many as possible!

The truth is that you can't fall in love with a beach without really trying. But you can know what you will find in the best beaches in Tenerife:
