Los Charcones consists of a collection of beautiful seawater pools of various sizes, depths, and shapes.
An abandoned, half-finished hotel building nearby is a stark contrast—a shame... 😥

Former secret among the rabbits (inhabitants of Lanzarote), this beautiful place is, inevitably, more and more popular. However, it is still possible to enjoy in peace thanks to the large number of "puddles" formed by the sea on this stretch of coast. There are large and small, deep and shallow, some green, others blue... It is not easy to reach all of them, having to climb over the rocks in some areas, and always being attentive to the fierceness of the sea, but it can be an adventure to find your private pool overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.
