    Tips

    August 24, 2023

    The nature reserve is a dry, dusty plain between the town of Palm-Mar and the Faro Punta de la Rasca lighthouse to the south. The area is bordered to the west by the rugged rocky coast, to the east by the volcanic cone of the Roque de Rasca. The vegetation consists mostly of partly huge cactus bushes .... an actually desolate area, but still beautiful. When the weather is good, be sure to wear sunscreen and drink enough water.

      Malpais means the "bad" country.
