Any Spanish speakers here?

I'm looking for the correct way to pronounce two Spanish names, both in Tenerife in the Canary Islands,

The first is El Medano, and I would like to know if it is pronounced El May-darno, or is is El Med-en-o. Or is it said anpther way.

The second is San Eugenio. Is it San Yoo-hay-nio, or is it San Yoo-enio, or San Yoo-eenio, with a silent G. Thanks in advance.
