Tacorón

A relaxing swim with volcanic views in the south of El Hierro

Tacorón is a stunning beach that’s really easy to get to. The road that goes to the southern point of El Hierro turns off to the right just before it reaches its destination: the coastal town of La Restinga. A short path takes you to these natural pools which are really worth a visit. You can enjoy this peaceful part of the Atlantic all year round. It’s called the “calm sea” for a reason! It’s an unforgettable place where the marine blue sea meets volcanic black sand.

Sustainability

Never leave waste of any type lying around, including cigarette butts. Leftover food leads to a proliferation of rats and wild cats.
Do not throw any waste or other objects into the water.
Respect the animals. Do not bother them or feed them. If you see an injured specimen, you can call the emergency number: 112. Do not pick flowers or plants from the environment.
Do not pick up or take away stones or any other item from the natural environment. And do not move them to pile them up into sadly famous 'towers'.
Do not use soap or gel in the showers.
Try to use ocean-friendly sun creams.
Try not to alter the peace of the environment with excessive noise (loud music, yelling, etc.) or activities that might be bothersome, such as ball games.
Pets are prohibited at many natural pools. Make sure you can take them beforehand.
