    These children's beach toys were on sale in nearly ever shop in Los Gigantes.
    It is not a good resort for families although there are loads of apartments high on the hill.
    The kids can't play with these things at the beach as the sea is far too rough.
    Maybe the apartment pools let them use them but every pool seems to have a long list of don'ts and playing with such toys is one of them.

    Much more than just a shop. Set in the sleepy little village of Guia Isora in among a few local houses & some bars.
    The shop - come restaurant & bar has an athentic feel. Taste some local liquors have a drink & browse the jewellery gifts & postcards.

    I love to collect postcards - so spent a lot of time looking for them.

    Work the price out in your own currency - if it seems ok buy what you most like

    Buy some flowers
    by scottishvisitor
    Went for a walk in Puerto De La Cruz and came across these people selling flowers.
    This place has been attracting tourist for over a century.
    It is less popular today because it is in the North of the Island which is really cloudy & doesn't get the sunshine like the southern resorts.

    Shopping For Shoes
    by steventilly
    There are tons of shops in Las Americas, you could spend a week looking around them all. The nicest of them are some of the boutiques in some of the more up-market comercial centres around Las Americas, especially in the Arona district.

    Wife spent the last days of our trip using up the "spare" Euros that we had buying shoes (three pairs) and a bag. The shoe shops are good - they sell shoes that you just don't see at home, pretty (sometimes quite exotic) designs that I suppose are better suited to their weather than to ours. Wife bought shoes to take on holiday to other warm, dry places.

    We were told that Santa Cruz is a freeport, and that goods there are cheaper than in the resorts. We didn't find that to be true, and even after they deducted 10% things were still more expensive than in Las Americas.

    These bright and colourful childrens toys make reasonable souvenirs of the Canary Islands or of Loro Parque. They are also quite good to photograph!

    I didn't buy any, but I don't think they were somewhere between 5-10 Euros depending on size.

    Tenerife is a tax free island, which means if you are visiting from the EU you MUST pay duty on luxury goods, cigarettes, liquor and perfume if you exceed the dity free allowance

    All the above are very keenly priced, other good buys include leather goods [wonderful shoes !] and ceramics

    you can try and get discounts, you may get lucky

    again
    by BerniShand
    There are hundreds of shops selling camcorders, cameras and other electronic equipment
    The Canary Islands are all tax free so prices are cheap, but you do have to bargain to get the best price

    always decide which make and model of camera you wish to by, the choice is bewildering
    it is possible the salesman will try and sell you one that he makes more profit on, not necessarily the one which suits your needs best
    dont forget that accessories will also be cheaper here so stock up

    how big is your wallet ?

    generally we found that prices were 30 - 40% lower than in the UK

    The market takes place every Sunday morning. It is bustling and full of bargains.

    We bought some very cheap ties- 3 for £5 and some leather imitation designer belts.

    very cheap but you can barter for it

  • There's a lot of alternative clothing, which I love! The way the shop's decorated is also very cool and different.

    It was sale when we were there, cheap ass!
