"Carnaval" as it is here is on in February, normally around the 10th. The best part of the carnival is in Santa Cruz rather than Puerto de la Cruz. It's said that carnival here is second in the world to Rio. It's the best nights out you could imagine. There are street bands play in the Plaza de España in Santa Cruz and decorated floats parade the streets. Basically it's an excuse to go out on the p*ss all night dressed up! If you love salsa music you'll love carnival. After the main carnival in Santa Cruz, it moves on to different towns. I live in the south so the main one here is in Los Cristianos but its nothing compared to the one in Santa Cruz. Every year there is a theme, if I remember rightly, this year was Medieval but next years theme hasn't been announced yet! Check back nearer the time and I'll let you know what the theme is!!

hi,
firstly Puerto de La Cruz is in Canary Islands not in Andalucia.
and is in the last of February but depens on the council can be in the last days of February or first weekend of March( to be sure check the web site of Puerto de La Cruz council) and it's quite nice.In fact is the second carnival of Tenerife, first one is in the capital Santa Cruz.If you are coming you'll enjoy it.


abuela Nany
Same time of year as the one in Brazil (ends on Mardi Gras) usually in late february or early march.
The Carnivals in Puerto de la Cruz and Tenerife are second only to the one in Rio de Janeiro!
The difference being that they are much less violent then the ones in Brazil.
(And they are in the Canary Islands not Andalucia).

This question is in "Andalucia" section: Puerto de le Crux is in Tenerife - several hundred miles away!
