Playa Paraiso beaches
Playa Paraiso is located on the south-west coast of Tenerife, approximately 8 kilometres north of the busy holiday resort Playa de las Americas.
Playa Paraiso beaches
Playa Paraiso has three small beaches, all located in small rocky bays. The best of the three beaches is called Las Galgas, but is usually referred to as Playa Paraiso.
This beach was recently completely renovated and was in this connection supplied with new sand. The sun lounges, sunshades and showers are also new.
The two other beaches have gravel and pebbles. Close to one of them, Playa el Pinque, there is a giant sea water pool called Lago Paraiso (see picture below).
Child-friendliness
The sand on the main beach is fine-grained and there is usually enough room to play. However, the water is not very shallow and there are several stones along the waterline.
Water sports
There are no water sports facilities at the beaches. If you fancy a trip on a jet ski, banana boat, parasailing or the like, it’s only a short taxi ride to Playa Fañabé in Costa Adeje.
Beach restaurants
During the high season, refreshments are sold at the main beach, Las Galgas.
Playa Paraiso holiday resort
Playa Paraiso is a small and relatively quiet holiday resort. There are a number of large and good hotels and plenty of restaurants, bars and small shops in the town. We recommend the popular hotel Bahia Principe Sunlight Costa Adeje, which has a huge pool area, many facilities for the whole family and the option of all inclusive.
In recent years, several initiatives have been taken to make the resort even more inviting, including a renovation of both the main street and Las Galgas beach. The result is a nice holiday resort with a calm atmosphere.
