The Kingly resort of Costa Teguise

March 30, 2011 - PRLog -- tourist location on the tropical isle. Situated solely on former lava fields and salt plains, the development of this excellent holiday resort only commenced at the end of the 1970's with the construction of the five-star accommodation Gran Melia Salinas.

You would believe that it could be a fairly noisy and hectic area, but it really is not. In fact it is just the opposite and has recently been criticised now and then for being devoid of charm due to its 'built from scratch resort' look and feel to it, on the contrary that is definitely not even close to it.

There is a water park that by comparison isn't as grand next to the gigantic aqua parks at the several other Spanish islands including Gran Canaria or Tenerife, but yet that makes it more inviting. There's a superb choice of water slides and rides which can be focused the whole family. Also Costa Teguise stands out as the only place on the entire island to find a golf course, so if you're craving to have a swing of things then this is definitely the only place to go - though there are more golf courses being built. This golf course was made by British landscape designer John Harris and was constructed in 1978 and it is located at the base of a volcano and has exceptional vistas of the Atlantic Ocean. It's a amazing course as it is forever in outstanding condition all year round.

The Playa de las Cucharas beach is especially recommended, especially for its wonderful panoramic vistas. It's suggested for you to do your wind surfing here since you'll find windsurfing schools scattered across this beachfront here. The opposite beach, the Playa Bastian, is likewise popular and is also considered normally the one more catered to families.

The La Cucharas Shopping Complex is actually a key spot just for this, and it also also comes with a few electrical duty-free outlets.
