Discover Punta del Hidalgo Natural Pool
Punta del Hidalgo is a charming fishing village on Tenerife’s north coast, with a rich history dating back to the Guanche era, long before the arrival of the Spanish.
Today, it remains a quiet place, untouched by mass tourism but offering all the essentials for a comfortable visit.
The natural pool is awarded with the Blue Flag for its cleanliness, safety, and excellent facilities. With its shallow waters, it’s an ideal spot for families with children.
However, the Atlantic can be unpredictable, with strong waves at times. Always check the weather conditions before visiting and follow any guidance from lifeguards to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
One of the highlights of the area is the coastal path, offering breathtaking scenery, birdwatching opportunities, and small natural pools along the way.
