Location

The hotel is located directly on the fine, light-colored natural beach of El Medano, one of the longest beaches on the island, right on the edge of the Montana Roja nature reserve. A beautiful wooden promenade along the sea leads you to the town center of El Medano in just a few minutes' walk, where you will still find local charm. Playa de las Américas is about a 20-minute drive away, and the airport (TFS) is only about 7 kilometers away, yet aircraft noise is seldom heard.

***
The Playa Surf CBbC Hotel in El Médano is known as a pioneer in windsurfing. The funboard, now ridden worldwide, was designed and tested here in 1982.
El Médano Bay is one of the best windsurfing spots in the world due to its safe, onshore winds. This is why it is often called 'Little Hawaii' or the 'European answer to Hawaii'!
The hotel has a limited number of storage boxes for your own surf and kiteboards (for a fee on site).
Due to the ideal beach location of the Playa Surf CBbC Hotel (based on designs by the famous Canarian artist César Manrique), athletes can launch directly into the sea from approximately 30m of sandy beach. Wind statistics show that there is wind on approximately 75% of the days in El Médano Bay. The measured wind strengths range between 4 and 5 Beaufort.
World Cups are often held here in the summer.
