Los Hervideros, Lava field on the western coast of Yaiza, Spain
The black volcanic cliffs stretch along the coastline, forming a network of caves and tunnels shaped by the continuous interaction of lava and ocean.
The Timanfaya volcanic eruptions in the 1730s created these massive lava flows that solidified upon reaching the Atlantic Ocean, forming the current coastal structures.
Local fishermen have traditionally used the natural cavities of Los Hervideros as observation points to monitor ocean conditions and weather patterns.
A system of paved pathways and viewing platforms enables visitors to safely observe the powerful waves crashing against the volcanic formations.
Ocean waves force water through volcanic rock cavities, creating powerful sprays that resemble natural geysers shooting upward from the rocky surface.
