Palm-Mar

Palm-Mar is a small coastal resort in the south of Tenerife, in the Canary Islands, part of the municipality of Arona. Located close to Los Cristianos and Playa de las Américas, it offers a quieter, more residential atmosphere than these busier neighbouring resorts. The town sits along the Atlantic coastline and features a seafront promenade together with a beach of black volcanic sand and pebbles, characteristic of the island. The climate is mild throughout the year, with pleasant winter temperatures, making it a popular choice for longer stays, particularly among families and older European holidaymakers. The surrounding area provides opportunities for coastal walks, along with easy access to the shops and livelier amenities of nearby resorts just a short drive away. Palm-Mar remains primarily residential, with relatively few major tourist facilities of its own, making it well suited to those seeking rest and quiet. Its proximity to Tenerife South Airport makes the area easy to reach. Southern Tenerife is also known for more consistent sunshine than the island's north, an advantage for visitors seeking a drier, sunnier climate.
