Puerto de la Cruz is where tourism began in the Canary Islands. Although its tourist appeal is evident, it is above all a fishing village. An ideal destination for adventure sports and full of natural beauty, it’s growing in popularity with tourists.
PuertoDeLaCruz.travel aims to be a resource for travelers, and help them find everything they need to know about Puerto De La Cruz: what they can do and enjoy.
Travel.Domains: Since tourists use the internet first to begin their travel research, how does the puertodelacruz.travel website gain and sustain visitor attention?
Juan Carlos Lorenzo: We started with the idea that Puerto de la Cruz is a compelling destination. At the same time, we realized that the .Travel domain extension allowed us to use our destination name, so that people knew exactly what the website was about.

Travel.Domains: What is your strategy to capture the attention of visitors?
J.C. Lorenzo: Our strategy is aligned with the town, which emphasizes a multi-experience destination where the culture of its people and active tourism are its greatest values.
