Archipenque Viewpoint.
The Archipenque Viewpoint is undoubtedly one of the most photographed spots for the Cliffs of Los Gigantes. Its impressive vertical walls, rising 600 metres above sea level, form one of the most striking and spectacular landscapes in the Canary Islands.
From this point, you can also see the coastal town of Puerto de Santiago and the marina at Acantilados de Los Gigantes. On clear days, you can enjoy unparalleled views of the neighbouring islands of La Gomera and La Palma, completing a landscape of great beauty.
A place that invites you to pause, contemplate the landscape and enjoy an unforgettable sunset.
Ethical Tourism
Enjoy it responsibly and respectfully
- If you have the opportunity, visit it at sunset: the light transforms the landscape and the view is even more special.
- Do not trespass on landscaped areas or nearby private spaces.
- Do not intrude into the pedestrian zone.
- Keep the environment clean. Do not leave any rubbish, packaging, or cigarette butts behind.
- Respect the space and avoid behaviour that could jeopardise your safety or that of others.
- If you take photographs, do so without putting your safety or that of others at risk.
How to get there?
