Santa Cruz de Tenerife
If you can’t attend a concert or fit in a tour at Auditorio de Tenerife, then at the very least you can immerse yourself in the interior architecture by stopping here for a coffee or drink, if not breakfast, brunch or lunch. The food, such as wraps and burgers, is less exclusive than you would expect in such a setting, which makes things more relaxed.
Seats on the terrace looking out over the glossy water are lovely in the late afternoon sun.
