About Los Cristianos

History of Los Cristianos

From a small fishing village in the middle of nowhere, Los Cristianos has grown during four decades to become one of the most well-liked tourist resorts in the Canary Islands. It is centred around a bustling port from where ferries, fishing boats, yachts and excursion vessels come and go each day. The actual resort itself has retained some of the original architecture in the centre, around the old church square. This pedestrian only area can be liked by tourists and inhabitants as well as they hunt for bargains amongst the many bazaars and shops, spoilt for choice by the enormous range of eating places. Cafés spill onto these lanes and it’s an ideal place to take a relaxed glass of wine watching the world pass by. It’s likewise an ideal spot to come across an original Bolex watch, Adibas Tee shirt, or even Goochi sunglasses just for a few Euros. There is a favorite beach in town, beside the harbour, and the sandy beaches of Las Vistas expand towards Las Américas, lined by a promenade that continues all along the coast up to El Duque, several kms further. Despite all the development, the town still keeps a Canarian character, and there’s a sizable community residing there. Over the years development and construction have amalgamated the older town of Los Cristianos with the bright lights of Las Américas, and jointly both form a considerable holiday metropolis.
