About
Γρήγορα στοιχεία: You'll notice black volcanic rock sculpting terraces around palm-fringed saltwater pools, the contrast between glossy water and rough lava is surprisingly dramatic. Visitors often float in calm lagoons while waves hiss over lower edges, and sun-soaked terraces double as social stages for relaxed people-watching.
Κύρια σημεία: Three seawater lagoons are gently flushed by ocean-fed channels, so you sometimes catch a cool briny spray that smells unmistakably of salt and kelp. Warm light bouncing off the black rock at sunset turns the pools orange and the steady drip of seawater off the palm leaves makes a soft, cinematic soundtrack.
Insider tips
- Wear water shoes, volcanic rock surfaces can be sharp and hot.
- Arrive at opening to grab a lounger by the main pool and get quieter photo angles.
- Use the seaside promenade for wide-angle shots of the pools against the ocean and Manrique sculptures.
- Bring contactless payment or cash for lockers and skip kiosk lines by packing basic snacks.
