Beaches, Bars, Restaurants And Apartments Los Cristianos
By Lorenzo Jacabo on August 9, 2009
If you are looking for a lovely spot to holiday in with lots of things to do, you will find beaches, bars restaurants and apartments Los cristianos to be fantastic. They even have Old English tearooms just down the road in Cristian Suir.
This is a popular holiday resort situated in a sheltered cove on the south-west of the island of Tenerife, close to the glitzy playground of Playa de las Americas. Los cristianos was once a sleepy fishing village, and although it has been transformed into a modern-day resort, still maintains some of its traditional charms.
This resort is situated in a sheltered bay and still has a working harbor. The harbor is surrounded by shops, hotels and apartments and is fronted by a square. The promenade stretches all the way across and reaches as far as Playa de las Americas.
The old town makes up part of the harbor area and many locals still live here, it is a pedestrian only area. One of the best beaches on the entire island of Tenerife is the beach in Playa de las Americas, it is a man made beach constructed with sand from the Sahara dessert. A visit to Playa de las Vistas makes for a fantastic day out and it is only a brief taxi ride from Los Cristianos.
Duty free (or low duty) shopping is one of the many pleasures of visiting Tenerife. Souvenir hunters enjoy taking cultured pearls back home from the island as well as hand crafted goods. There are also a large variety of shops where cameras, tobacco, electrical goods, designer clothes and perfume can be found at cheaper prices.
The San Eugene center is a shoppers paradise and you will find plenty of British brand names here. There is also a street market held in Los Cristianos on a Sunday and this is popular with shoppers who enjoy a good haggle to get a bargain.
There is a large variety of restaurants where holiday makers are able to enjoy meals of all different types, from the well known English breakfast to Chinese and even Mexican foods. There are also some discos, nightclubs and fun pubs but nothing as exciting as those found in nearby Playa de las Americas.

Customers would come in if for no other reason than to chat with the owners, play with the puppies and maybe pick up some dog food.
