Roques de Salmor, Nature reserve on El Hierro, Canary Islands, Spain.
The Roques de Salmor reserve contains volcanic rock formations along the coastline, providing essential habitats for numerous marine and terrestrial species.
The Spanish government designated Roques de Salmor as an integral nature reserve in 1987 to safeguard its geological formations and marine ecosystems.
The rock formations of Roques de Salmor connect to ancient stories of El Hierro's first inhabitants and their relationship with the coastal environment.
Visitors must obtain permits before entering certain areas of the reserve, and access to specific sections remains restricted for conservation purposes.
The reserve spans 3.5 hectares of protected marine and terrestrial zones, featuring distinctive rock structures shaped by centuries of volcanic activity.
