Islote de Fermina Saltwater Pool

Islote de Fermina - built as a boatyard off the coast of Arrecife at the beginning of the 20th century, it was to be rebuilt in the 1970s by César Manrique, modeled on the 'Parque Marítimo' in Tenerife. This plan failed for more than 50 years. The small island became a ruin and was only systematically renovated and renovated from the ground up in 2019. The opening took place in February 2023. The only downer: bathing or swimming is not allowed at the moment. The only option is a short walk through the complex or a snack in the cafeteria. Another disadvantage is the rather short opening hours, which end at 5 p.m. every day.

beautiful Manrique addition, unfortunately "only" to look at

The Islote Fermina (Fermina Rocky Island), facing Arrecife Bay, was designed by Lanzarote artist César Manrique in the 1970s. On an area of more than 14,000 m2 there is a salt water swimming pool and a glass building with a cafeteria and various multipurpose rooms for events.
