tourist submarines that were built by
the Mobimar Corporation of Finland
and is 18.5m long, can safely dive to a depth of 60m and cruise at 2 knots,
whilst carrying a maximum of 48 passengers plus a crew of 2.
A trip on The Sub Fun Cinco usually lasts around 50 minutes, during which you
will normally be submerged for around 40 minutes, and departs throughout the day
from 10am. Contact details for more information are:

Without a doubt the principal feature of this part of southern Tenerife is the
magnificent 27 hole golf course at nearby Golf de Sur. The course was first
opened to the public in 1987, to the design of Pepe Gancedo. Over the last 30
years or so, the course has hosted a considerable number of internationally
recognised high level competitions, and has developed a very good reputation
with generously sized greens and striking black volcanic sand bunkers. Due to
this growing popularity, it is strongly recommended to book early. Contact
