Costa del Silencio holidays

Costa del Silencio holidays offer a tranquil escape on Tenerife's sun-drenched south coast. Aptly translating to 'The Silent Coast', this laidback resort provides a peaceful, residential atmosphere and crystal-clear waters.

What to expect from the Costa del Silencio

Staying true to its name, 'The Silent Coast' provides a peaceful retreat away from the island's major tourist hubs. Instead of towering mega-hotels, you'll find a relaxed, residential feel complete with a local tennis club, a selection of international restaurants, and a smattering of welcoming bars for a quiet evening drink. Despite the tranquillity, the lively hubs of Los Cristianos and Playa de las Americas are just a short drive away.

Snorkelling paradise

While Costa del Silencio trades sprawling sandy shorelines for dramatic, rocky coves, it boasts some of the clearest waters in southern Tenerife. The lack of sand makes local spots like Amarilla Beach a haven for snorkelling. After exploring the vibrant underwater world, you can dry off and grab a refreshing drink at the cove's beachfront bar. If you're craving a traditional beach day, the sweeping sandy shores of Los Cristianos are only a quick trip along the coast.

The best daytrips from Costa del Silencio

This resort is the perfect springboard for exploring Tenerife's top attractions. A 20-minute taxi ride takes you to Costa Adeje, home to pristine Blue Flag beaches, upscale dining, and the world-famous Siam Park waterpark. For a dramatic change of scenery, head inland to Teide National Park to marvel at the island's massive volcanic craters and rivers of ancient, petrified lava.
