The Giants

A convertible tour in Tenerife is only complete once you've seen the impressive rock formations of Los Gigantes. The drive there – especially from the south of the island via the TF-47 – is a real experience for convertible drivers. Winding roads, breathtaking views of the Atlantic, and the majestic "Acantilados de Los Gigantes," which rise up to 600 meters straight out of the sea, make this section a highlight of any island tour. Even as you approach, you slowly draw closer to the rugged cliffs that tower over the coast like a natural cathedral.

A place between rocks and sea

Los Gigantes itself is a comparatively quiet resort that nestles picturesque between rocks and sea. The black lava beach Playa de los Guios is sheltered directly below the cliffs and offers a spectacular backdrop for a refreshing swim. The small marina, lined with cozy cafés and restaurants, is an ideal spot for a break with a sea view – perfect for unwinding after a convertible tour around the island.

Active experiences around the cliffs

For those who want to explore the area actively, boat tours can be taken from the harbor to observe dolphins and whales – or you can paddle along the coast in a kayak. Diving along the cliffs is also popular, offering an underwater landscape as dramatic as the one on land. For hiking enthusiasts, a detour to the nearby Masca Gorge is worthwhile, reachable via a spectacular road – yet another highlight for convertible drivers.

Impressive contrasts and a relaxed atmosphere

Despite the imposing natural scenery, Los Gigantes feels pleasantly relaxed. The atmosphere is calm, the place manageable, and that is exactly what makes it attractive for travelers seeking a break from the hustle and bustle of tourist hotspots. The spectacular location, combined with the relaxed vibe, makes Los Gigantes an ideal destination for day trips in an open car or as a stop on a multi-day convertible tour in Tenerife.
