Los Hervideros

Coastal area Yaiza, Canary Islands, Spain

What to expect

Los Hervideros is a unique rock formation located in Yaiza, Spain, on the island of Lanzarote. The rocks have unusual shapes formed as a result of lava landslides and boiling in contact with sea water. The formation is relatively young, dating back to the eruption of the Montaña Rajada volcano in 1730-1736. Visitors can explore the area and observe the interesting geological formations, including caves, cones, and craters. The site is surrounded by a beautiful landscape of petrified lava and offers stunning views of the coastline. It's essential to respect the environment and follow guidelines to preserve the area's natural beauty, such as not leaving waste, not bothering animals, and not removing stones or plants. The nearby area also features other attractions, including the National Park of Timanfaya, La Geria wine-producing area, and beautiful beaches like Playa Quemada and Papagayo
