Tips from the locals: What to do in Los Cristianos?

There is so much more in Los Cristianos than beautiful beaches and nightlife. You’ll definitely want to leave the resorts and explore the surrounding villages and stunning landscapes. Whether you want to explore the island’s volcanic origins or head out to sea to spot whales, there is something for everyone in Los Cristianos. Keep reading to find out what some local residents recommend for your visit to Los Cristianos, with some attractions you won’t want to miss!

What is there in Los Cristianos that’s fun for the whole family?

There are several theme parks and water parks in Los Cristianos that guarantee excellent days out to entertain the whole family, from the youngest to the oldest members. If you love animals and wildlife, you can choose to visit Loro Park and see the beautiful parrots and exotic birds, or you can opt for a walk in the wildlife park at Jungle Park. If water fun is more your thing, be sure to visit Siam Park, one of the theme water parks with plenty of slides and entertainment. A tip for those on a budget is to buy combined tickets at a reduced price!

What about older children? How can you best entertain them?

Guests of all ages will enjoy the theme parks, but there’s even more to offer in Los Cristianos. For those with older children seeking an adrenaline rush during their visit to the island, you can choose to do an afternoon of quad or buggy riding. This is a great way to combine sightseeing with a new and unique experience. You might even go go-karting, and a trip to Forestal Park is a fun idea for the active family who enjoys adventure together!

What are the family-friendly activities on Kos?

A pirate boat trip is a fun way to explore the coastline. Children will have a great time enjoying the adventure of sailing on a pirate boat trip. The boat stops at the bays and beautiful sandy beaches during the tour. You can snorkel, swim, and sunbathe. The boat crew entertains you with pirate-themed games and music. A delightful Greek lunch is included.

If you’re looking for a more relaxing activity, sea fishing is the excellent tour. Join the local fishing boat in Kos Town and learn how to catch fish like a pro. Children will enjoy the thrill of catching their first fish. They will also learn about the marine ecosystem of the Aegean Sea. Your catch will be cooked in a restaurant in Kos Town.

If you want to see the real Kos, then Therma is highly recommended. You can bathe in natural hot springs and swim in therapeutic waters. Crystal clear water is said to have healing properties. You can rent a car and go there. You can also join private tours to view the place. The Therma beach is a destination you must see. It would be one of the great days of your vacation.

What are the best boat trips to do from Los Cristianos?

As an island, you’ll find a wide range of different boat trips! If you’re in need of a relaxing day out, we recommend trying one of the lazy day excursions. One opportunity not to be missed during your stay in Los Cristianos is the chance to spot whales and dolphins in their natural habitat. When you’re on the beach or along the coast, keep an eye out in the hope of spotting some of these majestic creatures, but we highly recommend joining a whale watching boat, where the captain will use his local knowledge to increase your chances of spotting not only whales and dolphins, but also other interesting marine life!

What is the best way to explore Teide?

No visitor to the island should leave without first paying their respects to the volcano that dominates the skyline. There are many ways to get to know the island up close, and because the national park covers such a large area, we recommend taking a tour to make the most of your visit. There are tours available where you have to do some walking and there are tours available where you can also visit by bus. Be sure to go to the cable car that runs to the heights of Teide, so you can experience the volcano to the fullest!

Can I island hop from Los Cristianos?

Los Cristianos is an excellent base to visit some of the sister islands of the Canary Islands. There are daily ferries from Los Cristianos to Gran Canaria, La Gomera, La Palma, and El Hierro, as well as a ferry that takes you to mainland Spain (provided you don’t mind the 35-hour crossing). You can use these ferries to hop from one island to another, or you can simply spend the day on one of the sister islands and return to Los Cristianos on the same day. If you’re unfamiliar with the island of your destination, it’s a good idea to book one of the organized tours so you can make the most of your time during your visit!

Are there ‘must do’ or ‘must see’ activities?

If you’re even remotely interested in astronomy or astrology, then a tour you definitely must do is the stargazing experience. This is a magical evening where we gaze at the night sky and spot constellations that are rarely visible from the light-polluted cities where we often find ourselves. This can be a romantic evening and perhaps the perfect opportunity for a proposal or even to reignite a relationship.

What is the best way to visit the island in one day?

There are many ways to explore the island, including public transportation and car rental. For those of you who want to make the most of your day and see the main attractions without any stress, we recommend joining a guided tour, which is not only often more economical, but also helps you visit the main attractions.
