Trip to Los Gigantes, Spain

Los Gigantes

Los Gignantes, which means ''The Giants'', is a resort town in the Santiago del Teide municipality on the west coast of the Canary Island Tenerife. Its main feature are the giant rock formations - Acantilados de Los Gigantes ("Cliffs of the Giants'').

The cliffs at Los Gigantes, Acantilados de Los Gigantes in Spanish, are one of the island's major tourist attractions. There are three view points in the village, the main one on main road to towards Tamaimo, another above the sports club and a third on a coastal path around the Hotel Barcelo. The village has many small shops and restaurants servicing the tourists that visit the area, especially on the one way road loop around church and plaza, and also near to the marina and beach.

Each year, in February, there is a carnival which parades through the village. As can be expected of a town resort, Los Gigantes has only one hotel but lots of apartments compared to regular residences.
