History

Founded on 9 March 1923 under the name of Orotava Football Club, the club merged with Club de Fútbol Victoria, Club Deportivo Orotava and Club de Fútbol San Pablo, another clubs from the city, in 1944.[1] After the merger, the club adopted the name of Unión Deportiva Orotava, but played for a few seasons in the 1940s under the name of Atlético Orotava.[1]

After several years in the regional leagues, Orotava achieved their first-ever promotion to the Tercera División in 1980. They remained in the category for 21 consecutive seasons, winning their group in the 1993–94 season but missing out promotion in the play-offs.

Orotava suffered relegation to the Interinsular Preferente in 2001, and continued to appear mainly in the category in the following years.
