The main shopping centers in Santa Cruz are concentrated in one zone – avenida Tres de Mayo, so it will be quite possible for you to visit them all and will save your time a lot.

El Corte Ingles

 

The most popular place is El Corte Ingles. Probably you have already heard this name as it is the popular Spanish network of shopping centers. So if you have already visited other Spanish cities, may be you visited this huge mall as well.

If you have never heard about it, in El Corte Ingles you can buy totally everything: food, cosmetics, bags, clothes and shoes for men, women and kids, toys, products for home, electronics and much more.

Unlike the other shopping centers, El Corte Ingles offers a big selection of Spanish brands, which you can’t find in the other countries, so you can have a chance to buy something really interesting.

But some brands we would like to point out as they are presented mostly in Spain or just definitely worth the attention.

Adolfo Domínguez is probably one of the most famous and appreciated Spanish designers. In Adolfo Domínguez suits were dressed the main heroes of popular TV series Miami Vice and employees of the main Spanish airline company Iberia.

Also Puruficación García makes clothes for men and women, shoes and accessories. Everything is very qualitative and elegant.

 

Carolina Herrera

 

This is not a Spanish brand, however it is loved in Spain, as well as all over the world. Many celebrities choose Carolina Herrera clothes for the most important events.

Check it out if you like luxury and elegant products.

 

Tres de Mayo

Just opposite the Corte Ingles you will see one more shopping center – Tres de Mayo.

If you checked the brands Puruficación García and Adolfo Domínguez in El Corte Ingles shopping center and liked them, remember to visit Tres de Mayo shopping center as well, as there you will find the bigger stores of these brands with more choice.

 

El Meridiano

 

One more shopping center in this area is Meridiano. There you can visit many popular stores, like Zara, Pull&Bear, Massimo Dutti, Calzedonia, etc.

If you have some more time, walk till Calle Castillo, which is situated near Plaza España. So you can see a bit of the city and combine it with the shopping.

In Calle Castillo are located all the famous brands, which we already mentioned above: Massimo Dutti, H&M, Mango, Bimba y Lola and others.

 

Shopping in La Laguna

The first place for shopping in La Laguna we are going to name is Al Campo (Auchan). If you have a car, you can visit it for some clothes, shoes and cosmetics brands (even though they are not presented there exclusively and can be found in many other more accessible places).

But what Al Campo is really worth visiting for is food and wine. If you want to buy local meat products, cheese and wine there you can find a really good choice.

 

To visit La Laguna only for shopping we don’t recommend, as there are almost no shops and brands, which are not presented in Las Americas or Santa Cruz. But if you are going to visit La Laguna for sightseeing, you can also make some shopping there.

Many famous Spanish brands are presented in the center of La Laguna, on the streets between the cathedral (Catedral de La Laguna) and the church (Iglesia-Parroquia Matriz de Ntra Sra de La Concepción).

 

Shopping in Puerto de la Cruz

 

As in case of La Laguna, Puerto de la Cruz is first of all the place to visit for sightseeing. Go there to visit Loro Parque, to enjoy Canarian atmosphere and beautiful nature.

In the center of the city you can find some shops as well, so you can combine sightseeing with some shopping.

 

Shopping in La Orotava

 

La Villa shopping center

One more shopping center which is worth mentioning in our guide is La Villa shopping center. In this huge mall you will find one more Al Campo and some clothes, shoes, accessories, sports, cosmetics and other shops.

The brands you can purchase there are:

• Benetton
• Massimo Dutti,
• Zara
• Pull&Bear
• Punto Roma
• Bershka
• Springfield
• Stradivarius
• Women’s secret

 

We hope our guide will be useful for you and will help you to make a productive shopping. One more thing you probably need to know is that many shops in Tenerife North (if it is not a big shopping center) are closed for siesta and almost nothing is working on Sundays, so keep it in mind while planning your shopping there.
