Located on the Spanish island of Tenerife, one of the Canary Islands, the city of Santa Cruz de Tenerife is the joint capital of the Canary Islands, along with Las Palmas. The city is usually just called Santa Cruz and is located in the north east of Tenerife, around 210 km off the north western coast of Africa. Located in the city is the Parliament of the Canary Islands, the Canarian Ministry of the Presidency, which is shared on a 4 year term with Las Palmas, half of the Ministries and Boards of the Canarian Government (the other half is in Gran Canaria), the Tenerife Provincial Courts and two courts of the Superior Court of Justice of the Canary Islands.
The city's port plays an important role in trade between Europe, Africa and the Americas. The city is the focus for domestic and inter-island communications in the Canary Islands. Ferry services from the port depart to mainland Spain, the rest of the Canary Islands and beyond.
The Spanish city and port of Arrecife is located on the island of Lanzarote which forms part of the Canary Islands. The town lies on the island's east coast and is a city full to the brim with culture and history. Arrecife's name is derived from the Spanish for reef and is a reference to the volcanic rock formations that lie out to sea and protect the pretty harbour.
The city can trace its origins back to the 15th century where it began as a small fishing village. Over the next 300 years or so, the settlement grew and eventually became the island's capital in 1852. Today, the city is adorned with boutiques, high end shops selling designer labels and is a popular destination for shoppers. The city also has its own beach, Playa del Reducto, that has lovely golden sand and warm, calm waters to bathe in. There is also a lovely promenade that runs from Playa del Reducto to the city's second beach, Playa del Cable, which is around 2 km to the west.
From the city's port, ferries depart to the other islands in the Canaries and also to other destinations in Europe and Africa.
