Fincas in the low lands of Buenavista and Los Silos are used above all for bananas and very often with shade houses for tomatoes which neither tolerate humidity (such as found in the mist belt above Orotava Valley) nor too extreme sun. You might also have heard of the large golf course of Buena Vista which is precisely by those huge fertile finca lands on the west coast of Tenerife.
