This small fishing port has actually become known by the Swede "Bengt Rylander".

He discovered this place in the mid-1950s.

Los Cristianos became an ideal place for his illness.

The sand containing radioactive mineral grains had a curative effect on his multiple sclerosis disease.

Because of his fame in Sweden, he attracted other countrymen with similar symptoms to come to Los Cristianos.

At first, Los Cristianos was more of a spa that expanded into a tourist attraction in the 1960s.

This is how other European countries also found their way to the sunny island.

Over the years, Los Cristianos has become a real holiday resort where young and old can spend their holidays.
It is located in the south of the island, a 30-minute taxi ride from Reina Sofia Airport.

If you want to keep it cheaper, you can take the regular service TITSA at the exit of the airport.

For Los Christianos and Playa de las Américas take the regular service 487.

These buses have different stops in Los Cristianos and continue on to Playa de las Américas where there is also the final stop and where you can also switch to another scheduled service.

In Los Cristianos you have a village center where you still can walk around in narrow and even car-free streets.

These streets are still inhabited by the locals.

​

At the harbor, you have a large square where you can enjoy shopping or eat something in numerous restaurants or other eateries.

Because there is a lack of nightlife here, it gets quieter here from 11 pm.
Los Cristianos itself is an important commercial center.

Here you will find large shopping centers where many well-known boutiques are housed.

Because Tenerife is largely tax-free, it can be interesting to buy perfume, alcohol, and cigarettes.

Just like for electronic devices, but then you have to enter the right store and pay attention to the European warranty.
