Mirador Punta del Roque en Santiago del Teide

Punta del Roque viewpoint

By the SantiagoDelTeide.com editorial team Updated: 2026-08-26 How we make this guide

Coastal viewpoint within walking distance of Puerto de Santiago, with Atlantic views and good late-afternoon light.

Puerto de Santiago Free Outdoor site. Best visited in daylight.

Punta del Roque viewpoint is on Calle La Hondura along the Puerto de Santiago seafront. It is an urban viewpoint that can be reached on foot without planning a mountain route or moving the car for a short visit.

Its Atlantic-facing position works particularly well late in the afternoon. Calima, low cloud and sea haze affect visibility, so check the sky and arrive before sunset to enjoy the earlier light.

Combine it with La Hondura promenade, nearby <a href="/en/restaurants/?sdt_zone=puerto-de-santiago">restaurants</a> and other stops along <a href="/puerto-de-santiago/">Puerto de Santiago</a>. Wear comfortable shoes and remain in designated areas rather than approaching exposed edges or rocks for photographs.

Access is free and outdoors. There is no admission schedule, but daylight and calm sea conditions make the visit easier.
