Tabaibal del Porís

This lovely corner in the municipality of Arico is particularly special thanks to its euphorbia population. Prepare to enter a typically Canarian habitat populated by protected species, including spiny lettuce and corazoncillos. The countryside is precipitous due to the malpaís landscape with its volcanic twisting and turning, creating a unique beauty that will captivate you. This site is by the coast, comprising a number of cliffs that plunge into the sea and small pebbled beaches.
