About Renting a Car at Tenerife Playa De Santiago
Playa de Santiago is a quiet fishing village in southern Tenerife, far from the more touristy beaches, and serves as a perfect base for exploring the island's dramatic landscape. From here, it takes just about 20 minutes along TF-713 up to Los Gigantes, where impressive cliff walls plunge straight into the Atlantic. Drive further north toward Masca, a picturesque mountain village reached via winding roads through the Teno massif's volcanic terrain, approximately an hour's drive.
To the south along the coast, you'll quickly reach Los Cristianos and Playa de las Américas, the island's liveliest resort towns with wide sandy beaches, in less than thirty minutes. If you want to experience Teide, Spain's highest mountain and one of Europe's most visited nature reserves, plan for approximately an hour's drive north via TF-38 through a fantastic volcanic plateau.
