La Fajana

Three delightful natural pools in the north of La Palma

There are many beautiful natural pools in the Canary Islands, but three so close, where you can almost jump from one to the other in seconds are few and far between. One of the best examples of this can be found in Barlovento, in the north-east of La Palma, called La Fajana. The paths that circle the complex of three pools, protected from the waves, mean you can move with ease between the three and bathe in the crystal clear waters.

Swim, eat and relax in a perfect spot in La Palma

Easy to get to, these natural sea pools are serviced with parking, sunbathing zones and restaurants. Even though it can fill up on busy days and the steps are not recommended for those with mobility difficulties, La Fajana is still a good family bathing spot to enjoy sea activities without fear of the danger of the open sea. Move from one pool to the other with ease and spend a great day out in this lovely corner of the island. An unforgettable experience.

Sustainability

Never leave waste of any type lying around, including cigarette butts. Leftover food leads to a proliferation of rats and wild cats.
Do not throw any waste or other objects into the water.
Respect the animals. Do not bother them or feed them. If you see an injured specimen, you can call the emergency number: 112. Do not pick flowers or plants from the environment.
Do not pick up or take away stones or any other item from the natural environment. And do not move them to pile them up into sadly famous 'towers'.
Do not use soap or gel in the showers.
Try to use ocean-friendly sun creams.
Try not to alter the peace of the environment with excessive noise (loud music, yelling, etc.) or activities that might be bothersome, such as ball games.
Pets are prohibited at many natural pools. Make sure you can take them beforehand.
