'Harbor in Los Cristianos resort town in Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain' Pecold / ShutterstockThe quieter and more sophisticated neighbour of Playa de Las Americas, Los Cristianos is a popular holiday destination chosen by thousands of families and couples each year.

There is also a wide selection of shops spread throughout various streets and commercial centres, where you can buy everything from electronics, clothes and perfume to alcohol, souvenirs and groceries.
