Playa El Pris

Bathers in the natural pool at Playa El Pris, among colourful houses and a sea-themed mural

Playa El Pris is in the fishing village of the same name, in the municipality of Tacoronte.

Playa El Pris has one of the most beautiful natural pools in the whole of Tenerife, which bathers reach via several flights of steps built by local people.

The pool is ideal for families, older people and children. A wall separates it from the open sea, keeping out the waves and making this area much safer.

Around its edge, a concrete platform lets you relax in the sun with a lovely view of the sea.

A coastal path links Playa El Pris with the village of Mesa del Mar and Playa de la Arena.

Along the seafront there are several restaurants serving fresh fish.
