La Dehesa and the juniper woodland
An area of vineyards, thousand-year-old junipers and jable (volcanic sand) landscape in El Golfo; one of the most extraordinary landscapes in the Canaries for the singularity of its vegetation.
El Golfo
The great coastal lagoon formed in the old volcanic crater; Playa del Verodal, Charco Azul and the black-rock shores are landmarks of the most accessible stretch of the northern coast.
La Restinga
The fishing port of the south and the hub of diving tourism; the Tagoro submarine volcano, active in 2011-2012, added a new underwater setting of scientific interest.
