The Teide Sunrise Mission

#cityplaybook Wake up early and drive up to Mount Teide for sunrise—either hike or take the cable car for epic views above the clouds. Then head down to La Orotava for breakfast and a wander through colonial streets. Spend midday in Puerto de la Cruz, relaxing at the Lago Martiánez pools or swimming in the ocean. In the afternoon, stop at a bodega in Tacoronte for local wine and cheese. End the day with sunset views from a high mirador—volcano to sea in one perfect loop.
