Other Activities

Should the wind not blow, or you fancy taking a break from windsurfing there are a multitude of things to do on the island. As well as those activities listed on the right, some of the most popular amongst our clients are kitesurfing and mountain-biking. Both are excellent in and around El Médano, the later of which can be organised through our associates at Bike Point.

Roxtar - Tenerife Climbing
Roxtar is an all-new facility set up in Granadilla by our friends Nick and Juliane. Climbing is incredibly popular, yet Tenerife remains relatively unknown to the sport's travelling crowd, which seems bizarre when the Canary's rocky terrain provides the ideal environment!

Granadilla (20min from El Médano) and the surrounding area boasts more than 15 world-class climbing arenas, not to mention the neighbouring 3,718m high mountain volcano El Teide or the north of the island.

In addition to this, all your climbing needs are catered for, including tailored guides, tuition to any level, and a fully stocked shop, packed with all your climbing essentials. For more information, email Roxtar or visit their website.
