The Mirador del Barranco de Garome offers a panoramic view of the valley of the same name, which forms a natural border between Puntagorda and Tijarafe. The valley is surrounded by pine forests. The climb is not suitable for people who suffer from vertigo as it drops from 2,200 metres to ground level in just 10 kilometres. We really recommend going to watch the sunset where you can admire the incredible colours and hues that glisten off the sea in the distance. The viewpoint is on the LP-1 road, after the Tinizara neighbourhood in the north of the town, so you can reach it by car.

"It is the ideal place to sunbathe and enjoy a peaceful saltwater bath. Located on the coast of Tacoronte, these natural pools are very popular among the residents of the municipality who especially visit them during the summer months. This small tourist center has two swimming pools, one of which is only filled during the summer months and the other is available all year round. The area is easy to access and has parking, although you must be careful with the road as it goes down the mountainside and has quite steep curves."

The whimsical shapes of the lava flow when it reaches the sea have created this small bay sheltered from the waves.

You can enjoy a very pleasant walk along the coast with spectacular scenery and sunsets. You should exercise extreme caution when there are heavy swells and high tides.
