One of the less known coastal resorts on the island, Candelaria is located in the north east of Tenerife, just a short drive away from Santa Cruz.
Most importantly, the town is home to the Virgin of Candelaria and the Basilica, two religious features that people travel from all over to see and experience.
Along the edge of the beach is one of the most unusual things to be found in Candelaria – a line of statues depicting the nine aboriginal Guanche kings that guard the Virgin of Candelaria. Stood upon tall rocks, these statues are huge and look intimidatingly at the visitors who gather to take photos.
