The North Shore is a scenic coastline popular with the surf community, plenty of swimming occasions in some of Europe’s most beautiful beaches. Cotillo is an old fisherman’s village with a hippie vibe.
Betancuria was founded in 1400 as the original capital of the kingdom of the Canary Islands. It’s the oldest Spanish towns on the archipelago and a great example of colonial architecture though the original church was destroyed by Berber pirates.
Sotavento is an endless sandy beach that creates enormous lagoons at low tide. It’s usually windy and popular with windsurfers.
