Breña Alta: local guide and property context

A sourced introduction to Breña Alta, its official settlement geography and the evidence used on this property-area page.

Local overview

Breña Alta (Spanish for Upper Breña) is a municipality on the eastern side of the island of La Palma, in the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, in the Canary Islands. The ayuntamiento (municipal office) is in the town of San Pedro, at 350 m above sea-level, and only 9 km south of the island's capital Santa Cruz de la Palma . Breña Alta lies on the main highway encircling the island, just north of La Palma Airport. Until the 17th century the area was known as Breña, but was then divided into Breña Alta and Breña Baja.

Breña Alta has a fishing port, an artificial beach at Bajamar, and an industrial area. The municipality is known for its tobacco production. There is a 100-year-old dracaena tree near San Isidro. There is also a zoo called Maroparque.

Official geography

Breña Alta is an official municipality of Santa Cruz de Tenerife province, identified by INE code 38008. The linked structured record provides a recorded municipal area of 30.82 square kilometres and a reference coordinate of 28.6615, -17.7851. The coordinate is a municipal reference point, not a property, parcel boundary or radius from which local claims are inferred.

Settlements and local form

Breña Alta’s current IGN settlement record contains 9 official population nuclei. The imported source records are dated through 2025-10-21. The entry explicitly marked as the municipal capital is San Pedro, at a recorded elevation of approximately 344 metres. Other population-bearing nuclei in the extract include La Caldereta (399 residents in the cited settlement record), El Porvenir (294 residents in the cited settlement record), La Grama (257 residents in the cited settlement record), El Llanito (217 residents in the cited settlement record), and La Cuesta (166 residents in the cited settlement record). Nomenclátor entries describe settlement geography; they are not listing totals, neighbourhood boundaries or evidence of homes currently available for sale.

How this guide keeps the evidence local

The market analysis for Breña Alta is joined through the same INE code rather than a loose place-name match. This prevents similarly named places in other provinces from being blended together. Where a municipality-level series is unavailable, the page labels the province fallback explicitly; current NLS asking inventory remains separate from completed-sale, demographic and cadastral evidence.

What the official data shows for Breña Alta

Breña Alta is a municipality in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canarias. The latest available INE municipal record reports 7,318 residents in 2023.

The INE population series shown for Breña Alta municipality runs from 2015 to 2023, moving from 6,983 to 7,318 residents. The published series therefore changes by +4.8% over that span; this describes resident population, not housing demand by itself.

MITMA records 34 housing transactions over the latest four published quarters through 2026Q2. That is -17.1% compared with the preceding four quarters.

Current Catastro coverage for Breña Alta municipality includes 2,799 recorded buildings and 3,190 recorded dwellings, with an average recorded build year of 1968. These are cadastral records, not a count of homes currently for sale.

Within buildings that carry a usable construction year, the largest Catastro age band is 1970–1989, representing 29.3% of that recorded subset. The distribution helps describe the physical stock, but it does not establish refurbishment condition, energy performance or legal status for an individual property.

The current Consejo General del Notariado snapshot reports a completed-sale rate of €1,621 per square metre for Breña Alta municipality, based on 29 price-informed sales from 35 total recorded transactions. It is a dated aggregate snapshot rather than an asking-price estimate or an individual property valuation.

INE reports a house-price index of 110.4 for Canarias in 2026Q2. The index moved +11.0% year on year. This regional index shows direction of travel, not the value of a particular home.

The latest available INE indicators for Breña Alta municipality report net income per person of €15,396 (2023); an average age of 44.9 years (2023); an average household size of 2.60 people (2023); 7.8% of residents recorded as non-Spanish (2023); 19.7% of residents aged 65 or over (2023). These measures describe the resident and household context. They should not be converted into a forecast of prices, rents or buyer demand.

The administrative extract contains 363 registered energy certificates for this scope, with 12.9% rated A to C. Certificate coverage is not the same as the total housing stock, and a certificate count must not be read as a count of homes available to buy.

NLS currently shows 0 active public listings for this search. Those live asking listings are kept separate from official completed-sale, demographic and cadastral records so readers can compare current availability with historical evidence without blending unlike measures.

Sources, periods and how to read this analysis

Completed-sale snapshot. Consejo General del Notariado / Penotariado aggregate for the stated scope. Price measures use 29 price-informed sales from 35 total recorded transactions. It is a current snapshot fetched 2026-08-03 21:39:29, not a historical point.

Transaction activity. MITMA quarterly housing transmissions, shown as published counts with no scaling or extrapolation.

Registered-price context. Colegio de Registradores quarterly statistics for the labelled comparison scope. Aggregate values are never relabelled as municipality or neighbourhood values.

Population and income. INE series for Breña Alta municipality through 2023. Aggregate percentages and averages are population-weighted where appropriate.

Physical stock. Dirección General del Catastro building records. Counts describe recorded stock, not homes currently for sale.

Administrative registers. Official energy-certificate and, where available, tourism-register entries are matched to official geography; coverage is not a model of unregistered stock.

Geographic scope. Official municipality pages use their INE code. Legacy area-taxonomy pages inherit only a municipality or province scope that resolves unambiguously; no market value is derived from a listing location.

Current listings. The NLS active public inventory, shown separately as asking inventory and never blended into completed-sale statistics.

Images. Wikimedia Commons files are selected through Wikidata municipality records. Each photograph retains its creator, reuse licence and source link.

This is aggregate market context, not a property valuation, cadastral assessment, legal opinion or forecast. Non-institutional deed samples and commercial portal asking-price benchmarks are excluded from the analysis.
