A little introduction

Get to know Costa Teguise.

Costa Teguise combines several beaches with a resort centre that is straightforward to explore on foot once you choose the right arrival stop. Las Cucharas is the energetic water-sports beach, El Jablillo is a smaller cove framed by volcanic rock, and Playa Bastián adds another promenade-facing option. Pueblo Marinero makes a useful inland reference point for food and an evening wander. The transfer from the airport is the part to plan carefully: there is no direct public bus in the cited network, so the reliable pattern is an airport service to Arrecife followed by line 1.

Make a day of it

What makes it worth the visit.

  1. Watch the action at Las Cucharas

    Las Cucharas is the resort's water-sports focus and a good choice when you enjoy an active beach atmosphere. Wind is part of its appeal for many visitors, so check conditions locally and choose sheltered water only when the day's advice supports it.

  2. Compare El Jablillo and Playa Bastián

    These coves break up a promenade walk with different views, rocky edges and pockets of sand. Visiting two beaches is an easy way to make a day feel varied without adding another bus journey.

  3. Use Pueblo Marinero as a landmark

    Pueblo Marinero is both a named line 1 stop and a practical meeting point near restaurants and resort life. It is easier to orient yourself here than from a generic Costa Teguise label, especially if different members of a group arrive separately.

Good to know

Small details. Better days.

Let wind shape the beach order

Conditions can feel different between neighbouring coves. Start with the beach that suits the day, then use the promenade to compare another rather than fixing the entire visit in advance.

Name your line 1 stop

Playa Bastián, Pueblo Marinero and Hotel Salinas are distinct stops. Tell the driver your destination before validating a bank card and request the stop in advance.

Before you settle in

Keep the way home in mind.

Take line 1 back to Arrecife. For an onward airport journey, change to line 22 on a working weekday or line 23 at the weekend and allow time between the two independently timed legs.
