Playa De Las Americas Holidays:
Lights, action, dancing, music, hot days, cool nights sandy beaches and international cuisine. What do these all have in common? They are all elements of the city Playa de las Americas, on the southern coastline of Tenerife. It’s primary function when it was designed and built 30 years ago was to provide pleasure. If you seek an exciting nightlife, days spent lounging on a black sand beach and a lifestyle that borders on what some describe as hedonistic then cheap holidays in Playa de las Americas is what you are looking for.

Although Playa de las Americas is on the Spanish island of Tenerife, there is little there that is Spanish or Canarian. The streets parallel to the hotels are lined with British pubs, fish and chips stands and Chinese restaurants, to name just a few. Most international cuisine will be represented somewhere in Playa de las Americas. And with three “built” beaches as well as three natural beaches, there will be no shortage of a place to bask in the sun while awaiting the evening, when the city truly comes to life. Once the sun goes down, in true Spanish fashion, the pubs and bars awaken, the salsa bands warm their instruments, the drinks flow and the people, both locals and tourists, dance the night away. For a concentrated grouping of bars and clubs, spend an evening, or rather spend the night, walking along Veronica’s Strip and checking out the various nightclubs, usually with different styles of music.

If you are seeking daytime recreation, this resort town is home to the Octopus Aqua Park home to several water slide, diving platforms, a “lazy river” and dolphin shows. In nearby Los Cristianos is a 75,000 square meter tropical garden known as the Ecological Park. Featuring live animal shows year round, this zoo has free bus service from Playa de las Americas. Also in Los Cristianos, also with free bus transportation from Playa de las Americas, is the Cactus and Animal Park featuring animals and plants native to the more arid regions of the world. Also in this zoo is a tropical rainforest where exotic birds fly freely as well as hundreds of hummingbirds from around the world. If you don’t prefer the nightlife, if a bus ride to the next town doesn’t appeal to you, there are numerous other activities for visitors to enjoy. Throughout the city are businesses offering, for a fee, hang gliding, roller blading, bowls, skateboarding, go-karts of different sizes and skill levels, golf, tennis, snorkeling, Jet Ski, surfing, jeep safaris, island tours, sea trips and a submarine trip into the ocean.
