Located near Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Las Teresitas is an urban beach of fine golden sand imported from the Sahara and protected by an offshore breakwater that keeps the water calm and shallow. The backdrop of the Anaga Mountains rising directly behind the shore gives the beach an unusually dramatic setting for a family-friendly destination. The neighbouring fishing village of San Andrés adds local character with its seafood restaurants.
