Puerto de la Cruz is located in the northern part of the island, which has a wet climate and subtropical flora. It is slightly cooler here than in the southern part.
Holidays here will appeal to active people who are bored with a relaxing beach vacation. In addition, there are a lot of attractions, beautiful nature. The natives of the Canary Islands love to spend their vacations and weekends here.
I do not advise this resort for swimming, as big waves and frequent rains. It is better to come here for a day to see the sights and swim. By the way, not far away is a cool attraction for kids – Loro Park.
