Los Gigantes
Los Gigantes (The Giants) is aptly named after the Acantilados
de los Gigantes; large, striking cliffs that surround this
attractive holiday resort. The resort is set on the west coast of
Tenerife and is essentially joined together with its neighbours,
Playa la Arena and Puerto Santiago, to provide visitors with an
exciting resort experience. A concerted effort has been made not to
destroy the natural beauty of the town and as such there are none
of the towering hotels common to other Spanish tourist resorts. The
scenery is dominated by a rocky cliff which is 2,600 feet (800
metres) high in places.
