In the north of the island of Tenerife, Garachico gives us the possibility to know as they were the oldest settlements of the Canary Islands. Founded at the end of the 15th century by a Genoese banker, its port was a point of reference in the commercial trade between Europe and the Spanish colonies of America. Destroyed in 1706 by a volcanic eruption, we now offer quiet walks through squares and pedestrian streets near the first line of the sea, always facing the natural monument that is the rock of Garachico.
We can get to know the history of Garachico if we walk through its historical center of cozy dimensions and supported by a rich architectural heritage of the XVI and XVII centuries. It is one of the best preserved and most representative historical and artistic centers of the Canaries. It was declared a Cultural Interest Biennial in 1994, in the category of Historical Ensemble and also received the Gold Medal of Fine Arts for its artistic treasures. The visit to Garachico will be completed with a walk through natural landscapes, such as Caleta de Interián, the volcano Cninyero and the cliff of La Culata.
