The first time you come to Santa Cruz, you feel an eruption of emotions. The way nature is blended with a different kind of city will give you immense vitality. The beach, hill-walking, shopping, restaurants with Michelin stars or Repsol suns, as well as idyllic sights, offer a wide variety of spectacular settings in temperatures that are gentle twelve months a year. It is a city which mixes history with the great architecture of the 21st century, such as the Tenerife Auditorio, the Trade Fair Centre or Tenerife Espacio de las Artes.
