Charco Roque

A quiet corner where you can disconnect

"El Charco Roque is a spectacular example of how the twisted forms of lava have been molded by the force of the sea. Nestled on the beautiful coast of Buenavista, this natural pool is one of the most visited spots by the residents of the municipality, especially in summer. The puddle is located between Las Arenas and El Fraile beaches. If you are searching for a quiet corner where you can disconnect from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, this is a very good choice."

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.
