If you speak English, then Playa de las Américas will be the best for you. suitable place to practice their language, since most of the people there speak in English language, plus the music coming from the bars will sound familiar to you - American hits. But this is far from the nightlife capital for the Canary population. In general, it all depends on your tastes, but in any case, you need to visit several different locations in Tenerife to find "your" occupation or a place to go after dark.

Here is our guide to the best night spots in Tenerife.

Young and free

In the Playa de las Américas area and near the famous C.C. Veronica "s is the place! The local bars are not as seedy as people think. In fact, the bars are modern, lively, full of unbridled fun, especially for kids under 25. From here it is easy to reach clubs such as Tramps, where they regularly the guests are the world's leading DJs.

Baby boomers

And again Playa de las Américas will help you enjoy your favorite and, most importantly, familiar live music. People in their 40s and older can immerse themselves in their university years by listening to the music of the time in the bars along the street that make up the so-called "The Patch" and the Parc de la Paz. There are millions of live music bars where Tina Turner, Neil Diamond, Billy Idol and Rod Stewart never go out of style. Fortunately, there are plenty of places for musicians to keep up with the times, with bands like the Black Eyed Peas and the Kings of Leon.

The most frequently visited and favorite places are Shenanigans, where music rises to the intellectual level; the Bulls Head - a place for rockers; Soul Suite - for lovers of the wards of the recording company Motown Records. Plus, the recent opening of the Hard Rock Café in Playa de las Américas has further strengthened the location's position as Tenerife's premier nightlife hub.

University scenery

La Laguna is rarely found in the same sentence with the words "Tenerife" and "nightlife", however, it is the location of the university and yet part of the metropolis where the largest part of the Canary population lives. Everyone knows that where there are students, there are also eclectic bars, and La Laguna is no exception. In the center of the former capital of Tenerife, there is a triangle of streets where there are a huge number of great bars, where a tourist has never set foot, but where a student has definitely been. There is even one bar where bearded diners are especially welcome, and the name of the bar is fitting - Barbas. It is not surprising that you can listen to live music here too. Even Echo & the Bunnymen performed in La Laguna and it didn't cost a dime.

Early birds

Outside of the southern resorts of Tenerife, nothing interesting in the bars begins until midnight, which is completely unsuitable for those wishing to drink in the environment local residents... Take off, to the Noria area - an ideal staging post! In the early evening, there is just a huge number of street cafes, the constant noise of incessant conversations of stylish townspeople, but by the end of the working day this place takes on new colors. As darkness falls, the main action shifts to rooftops, terraces and posh places like Mojos y Mojitos and Los Reunidos.

South American bit

South America has greatly influenced Tenerife as many families have relatives on the other side Atlantic Ocean... Some members of the population are known as "Indianos" - immigrants who made their fortunes in Venezuela or Cuba, who then returned to the Canary Islands and invested their wealth here. As a result, sizzling Latin beats are more prevalent at each festival. This applies to bars and clubs, where the main music is most often reggaeton, and the main dances are salsa and merengue, and it is unlikely that it will be otherwise. There is one very cool Latin club in Puerto de la Cruz, which many European guests do not know, here you can dance to glory, but only Latin dances. Only it opens by the time many of us are already getting to their hotels. In some parts of the city, it can be much more crowded at 3 am than at 3 pm. The "hottest" place is Azucar, located in an atmospheric colonial building. This is a dark and exhilarating Cuban bar with an atmosphere of heat and passion - definitely not for the faint of heart.
