“Jardin Altantico” – the atlantic garden on Canteras beach
The “bloomiest” part of Canteras beach
The “atlantic garden” is located in front of the Auditoria Kraus, where interesting music events take place on an almost daily basis. Visitors enjoy the most gorgeous view of the garden, whose center is marked by a 10 meter high statue of the canarian opera singer (with Austrian roots) Alfredo Kraus, from a small outlook bridge on Auditoria Kraus which extends like the bow of a ship over Canteras beach.
Standing on this bridge, feeling the salty and damp air of the Atlantic and being able to look over the more than three kilometres long Canteras beach is by far a moment one will not forget easily and furthermore should be a must-see for every visitor who wants to experience one of the most beautiful parts of the city.
Back to jardin atlantico: Many seating accommodations invite the visitor to sit down and admire the colorful and with cactuses decorated flower beds. Even many butterflies have found a new home here due to the dampness that resulted out of the articifial irrigation. At the edge of the garden visitors can sit down approximately five meters above Canteras beach to enjoy the atmosphere that is filled with the waves of the surfspots La Cicer and La Barra.
