Acantilados de Los Gigantes - Tenerife

Source: Willem Vandenameele

Description

Los acantilados de Los Gigantes se caracterizan por tener paredes verticales de entre 300 y 600 metros de altura.

En época guanche se les conocía como el “Muro del Infierno” o “Muro del Diablo”, y podrían imaginarse como tales, ya que su oscura geografía de lava es prácticamente impenetrable al interior de la isla. Sólo algunos barrancos , como Carrizales, Juan López, El Natero, Barranco Seco, etc. abren paso en los acantilados, dejando en la desembocadura calas o pequeñas playas naturales de arena o grava, frecuentadas por embarcaciones de recreo.

Por debajo del nivel del mar, estos arrecifes no se extienden más profundamente . El fondo marino de esta zona tiene sólo unos 30 metros de profundidad y, debido a su difícil acceso, alberga una riqueza natural que atrae a innumerables buceadores y pescadores.

Ya sea que se llegue a ellos en barco o a pie, estos acantilados siempre ofrecen vistas impresionantes.
