Looking for the ultimate triathlon training base that supports your remote lifestyle too? Northern Tenerife—and especially Bajamar—offers an unbeatable combination of ocean swims, mountain climbs, forest trails, and like-minded community living. For triathletes, digital nomads, and remote workers with athletic ambitions, it’s one of the most inspiring and supportive places you can choose.
🏊 Swim in Ocean-Fed Natural Pools
The Bajamar natural swimming pools are a standout feature. Fed by the Atlantic Ocean, these saltwater pools mimic open-water conditions without the risk of waves, boats, or deep water. You can train in wetsuits year-round, practice race simulations, or cool off with a recovery swim in crystal-clear, refreshing water.

🚴 Ride from Sea to Summit
Bajamar is a cyclist’s dream starting point. Head out on quiet, scenic roads through pine forests or take on the legendary climb to Mount Teide—Spain’s highest peak at 2,300m. It’s one of the best altitude adaptation options in Europe, and you can do it from sea level within a single ride.
