Los Cristianos

Area Info

Once a small, traditional fishing village, Los Cristianos has grown over 40 years to become one of the most popular tourist resorts in the Canary Islands. At its heart is a bustling port from which ferries, fishing boats, yachts and excursion vessels come and go throughout the day.

The town itself has retained some of its original architecture in the centre, around the old church square. This pedestrianised area is popular with tourists and residents alike as they hunt for bargains amongst the many bazaars and shops, spoilt for choice by the enormous range of restaurants. Cafés spill out onto these lanes and it’s a perfect place to sip a relaxed drink and watch the world go by. It’s also the perfect place to find an original Bolex watch, Adibas T shirt, or Goochi sunglasses for just a few Euros.

There is a popular beach in town, beside the harbour, and the sandy beaches of Las Vistas extend towards Las Américas, lined by a promenade that continues all along the coast as far as El Duque, several kilometres away.

Despite all the growth, the town still retains a Canarian character, and there is a large local population living here. Over the years development and building have merged the older town of Los Cristianos with the glitzy Las Américas, and together the two form a substantial holiday city.

Eating Out

You are truly spoilt for choice in Los Cristianos, with something to suit every palate. Not only do you have the town centre which is overflowing with a choice of bars, restaurants and cafes, but you have the promenade where you can find amazing fish restaurants, and then the surrounding areas, all of which have a great and varied choice to suit all tastes.

Sport

Golf

Immediately beside Los Cristianos, Golf Las Américas stands in a unique location, forming a natural amphitheatre facing the ocean, with glorious views of the island of La Gomera. The 18 holes form an oasis of lush tropical fairways and greens interspersed with lakes, bunkers and palm trees. A challenging course, designer John Jacobs, gave priority to a myriad of obstacles on this par 72 course, which covers a total of 6,039 metres. An excellent Club House caters for all Golfers’ needs.

Gymnasiums

There are a number of gymnasiums around the area which can be used on a pay as you go system.

Watersports

A variety of watersports are available from the beach and port, from energetic jetskis to relaxing boat trips.

Other

There is no excuse not to keep up your fitness levels, as you can find tennis courts, padel tennis, swimming pools, and of course beautiful walks around the area.

Location

Los Cristianos is situated just 15 km’s west of the southern airport Reina Sofia, with a direct motorway link along the TF-1.

Ferries from the harbour form the main link with the island of La Gomera, a few kilometres off the coast.

The main bus terminal is a convenient hub to reach towns throughout the rest of the island and taxis are very easy to find.
