Beach landscapes by Punta Brava of Puerto de la Cruz were not ideal for Tenerife holidays by tourists.

Then came Cesar Manrique, one of famous Spanish artists and a renown landscaper.

What would you suggest for best color combinations for black?

Red comes to mind first, then gold and silver for glamor.
Right?
Green is also a favorite.
But lets look at green for beach landscapes last.
Lets see how Mr. Manrique tackled design with black as base color...

The Atlantic sea with its glimmering silver waters adds luxury to this beach land.

Only a few brilliant strokes of ideas were used. They are perfect and above all, sufficient. The entire design portrays drama as well as romance and is optimum landscaping with a minimum of means. What you can't know is that 2300 cubic meters of volcanic sands from nearby ocean depths were also added to give the shores a smooth, inviting appearance.

The lovely pastel colored skyline of the fishing hamlet Punta Brava seems to hug everything lovingly in the background.
The light blue sky riser of Hotel Maritim Tenerife seems to bend over with curiosity in the very far distance. Any late romantic painter would have loved this scenery for each and every detail in it.

One of critical Tenerife landscaping spots:

Between beach Playa Castillo San Felipe and Beach Playa Charcon is a delicate section of the total beach Playa Jardin. Here, a wide gorge called barranco Castillo San Felipe must carry mountain rain waters to the ocean for environmental sake. Most of the terrain was meant to stay empty, but a small Cactus park was added last not least. Admire the photo of the cactus garden which was destroyed by disaster in 2009. Will the cactea be replaced by new landscaping design? This is still to be seen.

Cesar Manrique was indeed one of Spanish artists who understood, how to landscape with basic important design rules to create dramatic pleasing sceneries for unforgettable beach vacations. He enhances beach fun for people with a holiday home in Tenerife from mainland Spain as well as for the rest of Tenerife fans.
