Roque del Moro, Natural rock formation in Pájara, Spain
The monumental rock emerges from the sea near a golden sand beach, creating a distinctive silhouette against the clear blue Canarian sky.
Natural erosion processes over millions of years have sculpted this geological formation into its current shape through wind and ocean forces.
Local residents consider this rock formation a symbol of the untamed natural heritage that characterizes the Pájara region of Fuerteventura.
Visitors need to take a dirt road requiring a 4x4 vehicle or walk several kilometers from the designated parking area to reach this location.
The rock formation stands next to a natural pool where swimmers can observe diverse marine species in protected waters.

Fuerteventura, the second largest island in the Canary Islands, is characterized by its diverse landscapes and notable geological features. The island houses spectacular formations such as the white dunes of Corralejo Natural Park, extending over more than 10 kilometers, the 70-million-year-old Ajuy caves, and accessible volcanoes like Calderon Hondo with its 70-meter-deep crater. The coastline offers expansive beaches like the one in Cofete, 12 kilometers long and backed by the Jandía mountains, as well as Lobos Island, a volcanic nature reserve with black sand beaches. Beyond its natural assets, Fuerteventura offers cultural experiences such as the Grain Museum, which traces the island's agricultural history, and activities suitable for all ages with Oasis Park with 3,000 animals or Aqua Water Park in Corralejo. The island's climate allows visits year-round, with mild temperatures and ample sunshine promoting exploration of its natural parks, historical sites, and preserved coastline.
