1. Bodegas El Grifo – Museo del Vino
Established in 1775, El Grifo is the Canaries' first winery and one of the oldest in Spain. Tour the grounds, which include a serene cactus garden and wine museum, before ponying up for a tasting. El Grifo's wines are fruity and crowd-pleasing—and slightly less complex than those produced at neighboring Los Bermejos. Guided museum tours, which include a glass of wine, cost €9 and take place Monday–Sunday at 11, 1, and 4:30.

2. Playa de Papagayo
The rugged coastline east of Playa Blanca has several stunning beaches, but Playa de Papagayo is considered to be the area's—if not the island's—most picturesque. This small bay with fine white sand is perfect for sunbathing as it's protected from the wind by cliffs at both ends. You have to walk along a dirt path to get here, so take suitable footwear and bottled water. Despite its remoteness, Papagayo is a busy beach, particularly in summer. Amenities: none. Best for: snorkeling; sunrise; swimming.

3. Los Bermejos
Visit the winery that the New York Times's wine critic, Eric Asimov, deemed the Canaries' "star producer." In the small, modern tasting area, situated on a terrace overlooking the vines, sip one of Spain's top rosés, made from indigenous listán negro grapes, and wonderfully fragrant Malvasía whites. Walk-ins are accepted.

4. Playa Mujeres
Squint and you could be in the Caribbean—this long white-sand beach situated within the protected area of Papagayo has turquoise water and generally calm surf. It faces west toward Fuerteventura and the Isla de Lobos and is popular among nudists. The sandy bay provides safe swimming conditions, and the beach is cleaned regularly. Amenities are limited to a few small bars. On the way to the beach, look out for the ruins of some bunkers from World War II. Amenities: food and drink. Best for: snorkeling; nudists; sunset; swimming.
