Los Cristianos was originally a small Canarian fishing village and despite its emergence as a purpose built resort, still retains its traditional industry in the working harbour. While the nightlife is a little quieter than adjoining Playa de las Americas, Los Cristianos still has plenty of quality restaurants, pubs and nightclubs. The golden sandy beaches are one of the resorts highlights and the main beach; Playa de las Vistas is actually man-made having had its sand imported from the Sahara. Los Cristianos boasts an abundance of shopping and the highlight is the street market held each Sunday near the Hotel Arona Gran. Explore the Old Town which stretches from the port up to the main shopping street, for plenty of Duty Free bargains. Onhotels.com offers a fantastic selection of Los Cristianos hotels at unbeatable online deals.
