Charco del
Diablo

Another characteristic enclave on the coast of Santiago del Teide is Charco del Diablo, a place where you can enjoy the sea and the municipality’s pleasant climate. This space, where a natural pool is formed, invites you to enjoy a unique experience in this peaceful setting.

Its value lies precisely in its surroundings, which invite relaxation and a respectful relationship with the marine environment. To enjoy it safely, it is important to act responsibly and take sea conditions into account, especially on days when there are high waves.

Visiting Charco del Diablo also implies a commitment to its conservation. Keeping the environment clean, avoiding invasive behaviour, and respecting the space are essential gestures for preserving this corner of the coastline as it is: authentic, open, and different by nature.

Here are some recommendations to help you enjoy your visit safely and respectfully.

Ethical Tourism

Enjoy it responsibly and respectfully

  • Before you go, check the sea conditions. The waves can change quickly and affect your safety in the water.
  • Do not leave any waste behind. Always pick up your rubbish and help keep this natural environment clean.
  • Protect yourself from the sun by avoiding the midday hours. Avoid overexposure and stay hydrated during your visit.
  • Choose sunscreens that are respectful of the marine environment.
  • Do not alter the environment. Do not take stones, plants, or other natural elements.
  • Always use the enabled accesses. Avoid walking on slippery or unpaved surfaces.
  • Wear appropriate footwear. In summer, rock surfaces and sand can reach very high temperatures.
  • If you take photographs, do so from safe locations and without entering sensitive or dangerous areas.
  • Maintain a respectful attitude. Avoid noises and behaviours that may disturb other people.
