Is Santa Cruz de Tenerife safe for solo female travelers?

Solo travel

First solo backpacking trip, april 2024 : 💔I took a week's solo holiday after a car accident that had left me feeling shaken. ✈️I flew alone from Barcelona and had to sleep there for the first time... I settled down on the ground near the sockets with my rucksack... next to other women, spontaneously. ☀️I booked a hostel in Santa Cruz. I recommend staying in the north-east or north-west of the island, which is wilder and less Ibiza nightlife-oriented than the south-west, where I didn't feel safe because drunk foreigners behave so badly!!! Worse than if they were at home...😡😤 Santa...

Everything was wonderful. It felt very safe and the food was good, even the tourist restaurants by the beach were decent. The drinks were also yummy and the people are friendly. Not too crowded in February but the weather was great and the water was warm. Not expensive at all honestly

The city is pretty safe. There are a lot of dancing events on the island, as well as surfing and co-working. We were there while working remotely and our experience was great. It is easy to move around with the local tram application, and the bus gets you pretty much everywhere

Group travel

The trip was super nice and the weather was amazing. I was with a group of friends and it was super safe. The food was delicious and there is nice activity to do or also nice to relax next to the beach with good sun in winter

Hi! I have been to Tenerife in April 2020, ai’ve had an amazing trip with my bestfriend Very clean and the weather was amazing plus we did an amazing horseback ride. Food was also very good, I would reccomend!

Tenerife is a peaceful and safe island, but like anywhere else, there are some neighborhoods that can feel a bit more ‘risky,’ usually where people with fewer resources live or where there is drug use or trafficking. However, the areas where tourists usually go are not like that at all. If you ever have any doubts about a neighborhood or a place to stay, feel free to ask me — I’ll be happy to help.” 🌴✨

Is pretty safe deppend of what part of the city are you, but at the center of the city you are safe meanwhile the day has light, at night it can be bit more dangerous. So I recommend to don’t go alone at night because of man you know they are no the safest thing in the world

I think is safe enough. As in everywhere else, you have to be careful where you go as there’s more dangerous and there’s safer places. You might get yelled at by the homeless locals, or you may get catcalled by men, but thats all. You have to be very unlucky to get robed or attacked. Even less probably murdered or kidnapped. I think the most touristic areas of the south can be dangerous if you go by yourself, but they can be okay if you go with a friend, even if you’re all girls.
