About
快速信息: A volcanic tunnel reveals a serene, mirror-like lagoon inhabited by tiny albino crabs found nowhere else, their ghostly forms only a few millimeters long and adapted to total darkness. Visitors wander along white-sand paths framed by black lava and lush gardens, then sit in a natural auditorium where mellow lighting and echoing drips create an uncanny, intimate concert atmosphere.
亮点: A saltwater lagoon under a vaulted lava tube glows aquamarine under soft lamps, while blind albino crabs, Munidopsis polymorpha, no larger than about 1 centimeter, scuttle over the black volcanic rocks. Local artist César Manrique transformed a collapsed volcanic tunnel into a cultural space in the 1960s, and on summer nights classical concerts echo through the cave as the air cools to around 18°C, the salt tang and dripping stone turning the music into something almost otherworldly.
Insider tips
- Arrive at opening or late afternoon to avoid the mid-day coach groups and get quieter photo spots.
- Bring a light jacket, the cave and auditorium are cool and humid even on warm days.
- Head to the upper terrace for the classic lagoon shot and try the auditorium at dusk for dramatic lighting and acoustics.
- Combine the visit with Cueva de los Verdes and allow transport time if using public buses or tour transfers.
