Itinerary description
|
Walk along the wild Rekewa beach in search of the tracks left by the turtles when they come to lay their eggs at night. In fact, the night before we had visited the beach to see the turtles lay their eggs, a fascinating spectacle.
We finished the walk with a swim in the only safe place to do so in the area, in the "Rock Pool", a natural pool in the rocks that fills with sea water according to the tides, as in many areas of the Canary Islands. .

'Rock pool'
"Natural pool" that forms in the rocky area according to the tide. It is the only place where one can bathe with tranquility, because the beach does not have a good bathroom.
