Jameos del Agua is an incredible place that brings together the wonder of nature and human ingenuity. Jameos del Agua, a volcanic cave transformed into a place of art and fun, was created by César Manrique, a renowned local artist.

This visit will make children marvel at the inner lake where albino crabs, a unique species in the world, live. Here, the beauty of nature and art come together, offering an adventure that is both educational and visually stunning.

4. César Manrique Foundation
