Costa Teguise

Holidays to Costa Teguise shine the spotlight on beaches, golf courses and watersports. A modern resort but built in traditional Canarian style. It's perhaps best-known for its watersports and draws windsurfing aficionados from around the world to its shores to experience the surf. If riding the crest of a wave isn't your thing though, there are plenty of other activities on offer like scuba diving, sailing and deep sea fishing. Of course, you might just prefer to spectator from the comfort of your beach towel as the neon sails of windsurfers flash across the sea. In which case, you've come to the right place.

There are three key beaches to choose from. The biggest, and arguably the best, is Las Cucharas. Made up of soft white sand, it really hits the spot if sunbathing tops your holiday to do list. Smaller El Jabillo beach is a bit pebbly while Los Charcos boasts an enticing sandy strip.

In the resort centre you'll find a good clutch of shops, bars and restaurants You can also enjoy walks along the promenade, taking in the fantastic colours of the sea, and watching windsurfers in action taking on the waves. A golf course is also close by for golfing enthusiasts.

The island’s historic capital of Teguise is a 10 to 15 minute drive away and provides a welcome break from the hustle and bustle of Costa Teguise, unless of course you go on a Sunday, when the market is in full swing.
