Where to eat on Canary Islands Day in southern Tenerife
May 30th is Canary Islands Day. A date that goes far beyond flags and official celebrations, it is the moment when the islands celebrate their identity, their roots, and their unique way of life. And if there is one thing capable of bringing all of that together into a single experience, it is gastronomy.
If you are wondering where to eat on Canary Islands Day in Tenerife and you are staying in the south of the island, whether you live here or are lucky enough to be visiting, there are four places where the celebration tastes even better.
The first, and the one that best represents the spirit of this special day, is Asador La Camella. Located in the heart of La Camella, in Arona, it is the restaurant most deeply connected to the traditions of the Gourmetland family. Here, Canarian and Spanish cuisine meet quality ingredients and timeless flavours: 90-day aged Simmental ribeye steak, acorn-fed Iberian pork, grilled meats, hearty stews, and authentic papas arrugadas with mojo sauce exactly as they should taste.
The atmosphere is warm, rustic, and welcoming, the kind of place where time seems to slow down and every meal is enjoyed without rushing. Exactly what you would expect from a true Canary Islands Day celebration.
For those who prefer a more Mediterranean experience, Gourmetland’s other restaurants offer a different, but equally special, way to celebrate the island.
Costa Caleta focuses on fresh market cuisine by the sea, perfect for a relaxed lunch under the Atlantic sun.
Marietta combines Mediterranean gastronomy with an elegant and carefully designed atmosphere, ideal for those who want to turn the occasion into something truly special.
And Marietta Beach takes the experience directly to the seafront: great food, cocktails, ocean breeze, and one of the best possible ways to end a May 30th in Tenerife.
Four restaurants, four different atmospheres, and one shared way of celebrating: enjoying gastronomy, the sea, and the unique character of the Canary Islands.
