Travelers book Tenerife As a Holiday

Reading Time: 7 minutes
El Duque beach at Costa Adeje

I am often asked if Tenerife is a great accessible destination for disabled travelers.  In this article I explore why I believe Tenerife is fast becoming one of the most popular holiday destinations for disabled travelers.

Tenerife is the largest of the Canary Islands.  It is known for its breathtakingly beautiful landscapes, it’s pristine beaches,  vibrant culture and family friendly resorts and attractions making it a popular destination for many families and a great place to enjoy some year round sunshine. It is around a 4 hour flight from the United Kingdom. It is a destination that has certainly become more popular with disabled travelers and over recent years has invested in creating a more accessible and inclusive holiday experience for disabled visitors and their families.  There is so much to do and see but here are just a few of the great things to see and do on this beautiful island.

Accessible Beaches

One of the great things about Tenerife is that everyone can enjoy a day on the beach.  The best accessible beaches on the island are in the south of the island in Los Cristianos and Santa Cruz.  Playa de as Vistas in Los Cristianos is one of the most accessible beaches on the island. There is a large accessible wooden decked sunbathing area with sun beds.  The beach also has beach wheelchairs so you can have a dip in the sea. There are also an accessible shower, transfer lift and accessible toilets (you will need to get a euro key).  One of the great things about this beach is that there is a friendly beach crew on hand to offer assistance.
