Hiking

A fantastic hike along the coast amidst beautiful nature 💚. Taking a break and listening to the waves is highly recommended and quite interesting 👍🏻

You can go swimming at some sheltered spots.

Hiking

If you look at the pools from the light house they seem really very inviting, especially on a hot day after a long walk. I thought I could chill down in them too. There's no visible path leading to the pools. I found a way down to them and was very disappointed, that there's no somewhat convenient entry point into the water, unless you are very sporty and adventurous. But, please, beware the tide.🌊

Hiking

A breathtakingly spectacular coastal hike amidst stunning, rugged scenery. On one side, the roaring Atlantic Ocean with its small bathing coves and the Palm-Mais lighthouse is a truly magical sight. And then there's the surrounding landscape with its rugged trails and cacti – simply beautiful. On a clear day, you can see La Gomera and, on the other side, Mount Teide. This hike is highly recommended and incredibly interesting.
