Holidays to Costa Del Silencio

Costa Del Silencio translates into English as 'the silent coast', making this resort the perfect place to go to enjoy a peaceful and relaxing holiday. It is this tranquillity that attracts tourists to the area, as they try to seek somewhere to escape the hustle and bustle of general city life.

As one of Tenerife’s original tourist locations, with roots dating back as far as the 1960s, Costa Del Silencio thrives by attracting lots of tourists each year. This town is one of the closest to the Airport, meaning shorter transfer times and less stress; cheap Costa Del Silencio holidays are the perfect opportunity to kick back and recharge your batteries.

Weather

Costa Del Silencio enjoys the same tropical climate as many of its neighbouring towns on the Island. This means it has long and hot summers, a bonus for those seeking cheap Costa Del Silencio holidays. Temperatures during the peak of summer average in the high twenties, with many days breaking the 30°C barrier.

For those who find the sweltering heat of the summer to be too much to handle, the winter also remains warm. The average temperature during these months peaks in the low twenties and the sun continues to make an appearance. These conditions make the resort perfect for a holiday no matter the time of year.

Things To Do

The Costa Del Silencio is a short walk from Las Galletas, where you will find the harbour. Here you can see the spectacular fish markets where you can buy some fresh, authentic Canarian food. This is also where the beach is located, and for those who want to soak up the sun, this is the place to go.

The resort also acts as the gateway to Tenerife, with many excursions setting off from the town into nearby tourist hotspots including Los Cristianos and the snowcapped Mount Teide, one of the highest summits in Spain.

Those who love to take a stroll will find this place a great place to visit. The resort’s scenery is picturesque, making for stunning photographs and walks you won’t want to end.

Food And Drink

There are many tourist-orientated restaurants and pubs in this small town, each offering something different which draws in the customers. British tourists pining for a taste of home will be thrilled to learn that there is a Harvester in this resort, although it may be a little different to what you would expect in the UK, it still offers some good English food. For those who want to be a little more adventurous, there is the Alejandra Café Bar and Grill. This place offers international cuisine and is even a great place to go out for a drink.

Costa Del Silencio bases itself around tranquillity and relaxation, but as a tourist resort, it does have a few bars outside of the hotel. Scooters and Bar Trebol are two of the many bars that will serve up a cool drink in a friendly atmosphere.
