Apartments Medano

El Médano is primarily a pedestrian village with a large square in the centre where the locals celebrate and organize activities. Many Canarios (inhabitants of the Canary Islands) visit El Médano over the weekends. Around the square some restaurants, a hotel and a children’s playground are located. The square ends at the central beach where many of the locals meet. In the morning the elderly villagers come for a swim, to be joined from eleven onwards by the mothers and children.

There are three things that characterise El Médano; the regular trade winds that sweep the resort and act as a magnet for windsurfers; the endless natural golden sand beaches that stretch for over 3 kilometers along its coast and the best and most popular of Tenerife’s beaches.

The afternoon is fairly quiet and from early evening until night the square is a real meeting place for young and old with singing, dancing and festivities in the open air. Merry-go-rounds, trampolines, cafe pavements; one huge party. The price level in El Médano is a separate attractive feature: you can shop, dine and drink at relatively low prices.
