Parque de La Granja

Parque de La Granja is an urban green space in Santa Cruz de Tenerife featuring palm trees, reed beds, and planted areas connected by paved and gravel pathways. The site includes sports facilities, playgrounds, and water fountains for visitor use.

Construction began in 1969 and the park was officially opened in 1976 to expand green spaces across the city. This project transformed the area into an important recreational hub for Santa Cruz residents.

A sculpture by artist Belén Morales commemorates naturalist Félix Rodríguez de la Fuente and creates a connection between the natural world and artistic expression. This work invites visitors to reflect on the importance of conservation efforts.

The park is accessible from Avenida de Madrid and Avenida Benito Pérez Armas through multiple entry points. Visitors should bring water or use the available stations, as the pathways are exposed to the Canary Islands sun.

The site is home to one of the finest skateboarding facilities in the Canary Islands, completed in 2017. This specialized amenity draws enthusiasts from across the region.
