As there are many Germans on Tenerife who have emigrated to the island, there is also a fairly large Protestant community on the Canary Island. It comprises the 20,000 German-speaking residents of the islands of Tenerife, La Palma, La Gomera and El Hierro. In addition to Playa de Las Américas, Puerto de la Cruz is also a central location.

Every Sunday at 17:00, the Anglican Church in Puerto de la Cruz organises a Protestant service. The church services and events are also attended by Austrians, Swiss, Dutch and Spaniards.
