Source: Willem Vandenameele

Description

It is said that in this place the witches danced around a bonfire , hence the name of the area "El Bailadero".

According to legend, in the past it was a gathering place for witches and wizards, where they supposedly performed rituals and dances. The site is often associated with folklore and mysticism , and attracts visitors interested in exploring the island's mysterious past and natural beauty. However, it is important to note that these stories are part of local folklore and are not necessarily based on historical facts.

It was said that after their witches' circles, these witches went to the seaside to bathe naked . As time went on, the influence of vampire stories from Eastern Europe led to the myth of Canary Witches which incorporated the aspect of blood sucking , turning them into vampire witches, who sucked the blood of newborns while they dozed in their cribs.
