How to get there
Approaching Marina Santa Cruz requires reporting to the Control Center before entry or exit. Vessels must use the designated channels by the Port Authority, entering through the south entrance to Muelle de Los Llanos. Communication via VHF channel 9 is crucial for mooring instructions, as there is no receiving pontoon.
The marina is protected by a separate breakwater that separates it from the rest of the commercial pool. Tenerife North Airport (Los Rodeos) is approximately 10 km away, and Tenerife South Airport is also accessible. The marina is connected to the city by a pedestrian bridge, which makes it much easier to get around.
