Puerto de la Cruz - Cultural variety in the northern touristic center

What makes the northernly located Puerto de la Cruz so popular as a holiday destination for tourists of so many different nations ? Is it the opulent vegetation, which varies in the paltry and sunny southern landscape of Los Cristianos and Las Américas (around 100 kilometres away) ? Or the attractions of the worldwide well known Loro Parque (with dolphin-, orca-, or sealionshows) ? It is definite, that again and again persons staying over winter like to come from northern europe to Puerto de la Cruz and enjoy the year-round warm but variable (the number of hours of rain is higher here than in the south) weather.

Many sights or great cities, which you will surely not forget, are within a radius of 20 km. If you want to visit the circle of Puerto de la Cruz, then we recommend you El Sauzal with a distance of ca. 19 km, La Orotava with a distance of ca. 7 km.
