    Next to El Golfo lies a volcanic crater, the western half of which has been eroded by the sea; the remaining southern half forms a bay. This is separated from the sea by a black lava wall and is filled with a lake colored green by microalgae.

      It is precisely because you can only admire this place from a certain distance that it has its charm. Because of the proximity to the car park, there are naturally a lot of people here.

        The Charco Verde, or Charco de los Clicos, owes its greenish hue to a type of algae (Ruppia maritima), in addition to the sulfur contained in the water. The term "cliques" comes from edible mussels, which were locally called "clicos" and had a reputation for being delicious. Source: es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charco_Verde
