Indulge in Spanish tapas
Try a variety of Spanish tapas amidst the laid-back and casual atmosphere of local eateries. These bite-sized savouries paired with local wine make a delightful meal.
Sample Canarian potatoes
Distinct to the Canary Islands, these small potatoes, boiled in seawater and served with spicy mojo picon or green mojo sauce are a must-try local delicacy.
Sip on Barraquito coffee
Nothing beats sipping a local Canarian Barraquito coffee while soaking in the town's serene atmosphere. This layered coffee with condensed milk, liquor, cinnamon and lemon is a local favourite.

Blessed with favourable weather all year round, El Médano is a true year-round haven for travellers. The warmest months from June to October are perfect for beach bums and water sports enthusiasts, with conditions ideal for swimming from June to November.
While the town enjoys a consistent stream of visitors throughout the year, there's a surge from January to December due to its steady influx of both local and foreign tourists. However, if you're looking for some savings on your holiday, consider visiting in June when the hotel prices are at their lowest.
