The town of Alcala
Alcala is considered as the most beautiful coast town on the South West of the island Tenerife. The weather is sunny and warm the whole year through. Alcala is situated in the best clime zone of the island.
There are only one hotel in town and a couple of holiday apartments. A little distance outside of Alcala (approx. 1 -3 km) you will find several holiday fincas. Here, you can spend your holiday amongst local people, but with a good infrastructure.

For an extensive beach day, the best is to drive to the Playa San Juan (4km) or to the Costa Adeje beaches (approx.15 driving minutes)
