What people say

"The cave is forbidden, but the police don't go there, don'worry. The way to the cave starts from the children's playground (Parque Infantil). You need to jump the fence, go over it, and continue to the forbidden sign. Then you start going down for 5 minutes walking, and you are there. The road is a little rocky, but it is easy to go through even with flip-flops. 💡Tips: REMEMBER THIS! It is very important to NOT go in the water when it is HIGH TIDE(have big waves in the pool) because this pool can be very dangerous. You can swim only if the water is FLAT. Also, you can jump from the rocks into the pool. Upstairs, just off the stairs, there is a snack bar with hamburgers, sandwiches, ice cream, and more."
"One of the most famous charcos in Tenerife, for the color of its turquoise waters and for its peculiarity of being inside a cave, which also makes it one of the most dangerous. Attention:⚠️ Swimming is only allowed when there is low tide and the sea conditions are optimal as it is a blowhole."
