Los Cristianos is a well known and established resort on the of the island of Tenerife, in the Canary Isles, it is only around 20-25 minutes south of the airport but is not under the flight path, the town is extremely popular with families who have younger children as well as older couples.
It is geographically very close to Playa de Las Americas but a world away in terms of atmosphere. If you want, the raucous ‘dance till dawn’ nightlife in is very close by in Las Americas, but Los Cristianos is a far more quiet, tranquil and family orientated town.

When you visit Los Cristianos you will without a doubt find it to be a very popular tourist resort that lies about fifteen kilometers to the west of the southern airport of Reina Sofia. Here are found spectacular artificial beaches as also a splendid harbour where you can avail of fishing trips as well as try out the pleasure cruises and float on glass bottom boats.
The crowd that visits Los Cristianos is generally not the younger generation; rather, you will find the older holidaymaker making this his or her vacation destination and it is in sharp contrast to those who visit Playa de Los Americas, where there is a more vibrant entertainment that attracts the younger traveller.

Built in the late 1960s, Playa de las Americas is a virtual tourist haven with it’s numerous rows of British Pubs, Fish and Chip outlets as well as Pizza and fast food outlets that bear testimony that this place is a home away from home for many European, British as well as American tourists.
Playa de las Americas has plenty of sun and fun and it is a veritable paradise for the young tourist, the nights that are brightly lit offer much by way of entertainment. In fact, this is a real cool destination for those who are high-spirited.
