El Porís de Abona

El Porís de Abona extends along the southeastern coast of Tenerife, featuring beaches, a harbor wall, and residential areas near clear waters.

The settlement grew from its origins as a fishing port, with the lighthouse of Punta de Abona becoming a primary maritime navigation point in the region.

Local fishermen maintain traditional practices by gathering near the harbor rocks, while restaurants serve Canarian potatoes with mojo sauce and regional fish dishes.

The village provides numerous diving spots with volcanic walls reaching 30 meters deep, small caves, and areas where green turtles frequently appear.

An underwater statue of the Virgin Mary rests atop rocks in the diving area, creating an unexpected religious monument beneath the ocean surface.
