    A place that you cannot miss in Lanzarote. Access to the lake is from El Golfo. Access on the other side is cut off.

      One of the most fascinating places to visit in Lanzarote is located in the southwest of the island in the municipality of Yaiza. Just south of the fishing village of El Golfo is Lago Verde, which means "green lake" in English. The lagoon is crescent-shaped
      in the arc of a volcanic crater, partially submerged in the sea, about thirty meters from the coast. The lake owes its bright green color to the influence of the alga Ruppia Maritima. Since the water of the lagoon is extremely salty, it offers the algae optimal living conditions. Since it is connected to the sea underground, the lagoon is constantly refilled with fresh sea water. Nevertheless, the lake is evaporating more and more and has already lost a considerable part of its original size. (Island-Lanzarote.de)
