View of the Los Gigantes cliffs

Highlight • Viewpoint

Unfortunately, the TUI Hotel is always in view. Is the local landmark that doesn't cling to the hillside.

Natural Pool at the Los Gigantes Cliffs

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Los Gigantes Natural Pool is open 24 hours a day. But be careful, it's not entirely safe.

In January 2025, a wave swept three tourists into the sea one afternoon.

If you walk down Calle Magnolia to the end (dead end) there is a staircase leading down to the natural lava pool. Actually a nice place. Unfortunately, the access is usually closed.

January 26, 2024,2024-01-26 Teneriffa Puerto de Santiago nach Los Gigantes
January 26th, 2024 stormy winds greeted us this morning and we didn't really know.. high up or should we stay on the coast. We decided to go along the coast from Puerto de Santiago to Los Gigantes. The path runs mainly above the coast and offers beautiful views of the rugged coast and the sea. Of course, the harbor and …

November 14th, 2021 everyone will know the way from Puerto Santiago to Los Gigantes ... but what was completely new for me is that the new Paseo was now finished. Wheelchair users can now roll along 1.2 km from Playa Chica, here there is a parking lot for wheelchair users, above the coast and have a fantastic view of the …

So, today is a compulsory rest day because the AirCon flu has me under control. So just a walk along the waterfront was planned.


After a delicious breakfast in the apartment (that's how you mainly spend the night in Los Gigantes), we went straight down to the beach, past the box-shaped TUI …

12.1.2025 You can hardly believe it, for the fourth day in a row, bright sunshine and not a cloud in sight.
Today we are walking the last stretch of the west coast from Playa la Arena to Los Gigantes. We already know everything, but you always discover something new, such as Baja de Isla Cangrejo and the Charcos de los …

Today the "sloppiness" had the upper hand. From Playa de la Arena we went along the coast to Los Gigantes...went to the port, to the beach, treated ourselves to an ice cream and then the luxury and took the bus 🚌 back again.

More of a walk. Beautiful views of the raging sea and the cliffs. The light is better in the afternoon, when the sun shines on the "giants".

By bus from Costa Adeje to Puerto de Santiago. At 27°C we hiked along the coast on the promenade.
It was windy that day and there are great viewing points from where you can watch the Atlantic with its huge waves.
If you go further you will come to this
"Los Gigantes" hiking trail. Good sure-footedness is required there.
