Las Grietas

Las Grietas features deep fissures in volcanic rock formations, creating narrow passages between high cliffs with natural pools at the bottom of the canyons.

The geological formation emerged through volcanic activities during the 18th century eruptions that shaped the entire landscape of Lanzarote island.

Local authorities have implemented strict regulations to protect this natural site from excessive tourism impacts following its increased popularity on social media platforms.

The municipality of Tías currently restricts public access to Las Grietas for safety reasons, requiring visitors to check local guidelines before planning their visit.

The natural pools within the canyon contain a mixture of seawater and freshwater, creating specific conditions that affect the presence of marine life.
