Playa San Juan or Playa de San Juan is a district of Guía de Isora with 6970 inhabitants, in the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. The place is located on the west coast of the Canary Island Tenerife directly on the Atlantic Ocean, about six kilometers west of the main town and about three kilometers south of the fishing village of Alcalá and 8 kilometers south of Puerto de Santiago.
Tourism
The place Playa San Juan is located at the mouth of the Guía Gorge and is surrounded by banana and flower plantations. The place has a port that was previously mainly used for coastal shipping. Today it is used as a berth for fishing and private boats. There are two beaches in the village, one directly at the harbor, protected by a pier and another about 250 meters long, south of it. A promenade runs along the shore. At the end of the beach is the Horno de Cal, a lime kiln that has recently been restored. There a staircase leads to the cliff where the 'Alcaravan' sculpture by Roberto Martinon is located.
There are a few hotels and many shops and restaurants in the village. A diving center and a boatyard are located directly at the harbor.
Traffic
The coastal road TF-47 connects Playa San Juan with Alcalá in the north and with Adeje in the south. The TF-463 connects the place with the main town Guía de Isora, inland. Since the end of 2016 there has been a motorway exit directly from the TF-1 to about 1 kilometer before Playa San Juan. This means that Playa San Juan is optimally connected to both the north and the south. The capital, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, is around 95 kilometers by road, and Tenerife South Airport is 36 kilometers away.
