A huge natural pool to snorkel in

TYPOLOGY: natural pool
ACCESS: 2 minute-walk
SERVICES: none
BEST TIME TO VISIT: all year round

Consisting of two arms of lava that protect the waters from the strong waves of the area, this natural pool is probably the best known and most visited on the island, after Garachico. In this small natural bay there is even a small beach on the right with an easy access to the water. When the sea is not too rough we love to take our mask and snorkel and dive between the rocks.

Getting there is quite simple: if you continue in the direction of Icod de Los Vinos you will find a sign on the side of the road that will indicate the detour you have to take. Follow down the narrow path between banana plantations and you will find the Charco del Viento.
