Playa Paraiso does not have much of a beach, but a salt-water lido which holidaymakers make use of. Despite the lack of a proper beach however, Playa Paraiso welcomes several thousand visitors every year. While the warm weather is inviting and the bay sufficiently equipped with water sport facilities, most vacationers who want vast stretches of sand steer clear of Playa Paraiso. This adds, than take away from the place’s charm, for if you are looking for a nice, quiet place to rest a few days, Playa Paraiso is your answer.
Playa de las Americas is less than half hour’s walk from Playa Paraiso. When you are looking for the familiar humdrum of a busting town, Playa de las Americas’ all-night pubs, restaurants and bars, and exciting amusement parks, provide great scope for entertainment.
From Playa Paraiso, you can also visit Tenerife’s capital Santa Cruz, the cliffs of Los Gigantes in the west, and the Mount Teide Park in the north.
