Adeje is best known on Tenerife for the Barranco del Infierno, a protected ravine that cuts into the island’s dry southwest slopes. The historic town stands inland above the Atlantic, while the municipality reaches the coast around Costa Adeje, one of southern Tenerife’s principal resort areas. In the old centre, the parish church of Santa Úrsula preserves a connection to the town’s early modern development; its origins date to the 16th century. This contrast between an established inland settlement, volcanic terrain and a busy shoreline gives Adeje a broader identity than its beach districts alone.
