At the west coast, in the protected bay of “Acantilados de Los Gigantes“ the holiday resorts that are accreted by now Los Gigantes and Puerto Santiago are situated. Los Gigantes is a quiet place with around 4000 inhabitants, away from the main street and without passing traffic. It lies directly at the 450 m off-peak coast – one of the world’s three largest steep coasts! The location features a small marina with a cosy seaside restaurant and pub scene, as well as a local market place with a church. It is surrounded by small shops, restaurants, pubs and boutiques, as well as some supermarkets. From the harbour excursion boats depart several times a day for whale and dolphin watching off the coast and also for open sea fishing. Between Los Gigantes and Puerto Santiago the pretty bungalow estate San Francisco is situated on 185 m with restaurant, supermarket, dentist, health food shop and tennis court.
