Then we visit the spectacular volcanic cave of the "Jameos del Agua", transformed by the artist César Manrique, who intends to show the visitor an area to observe nature hardly intervened by man. The "Jameos del Agua" is a huge hole that occurs as a result of the sinking of the roof of a volcanic tube and located inside the volcanic tunnel produced by the eruption of the Crown Volcano. The tunnel has a known length of 6 km, of which at least 1,5 km run under the sea surface. The Jameos del Agua are located in the section of this tunnel closest to the coast. On your way back, we can visit the beautiful and surprising "César Manrique Foundation" (*optional), home and workshop of the brilliant artist and built in 5 natural lava bubbles. It is particularly impressive for its architecture. Much of this housing, so out of the ordinary, is integrated into one of the islands' longest lava rivers. Natural lava walls and their curious forms were his residence for two decades and inspiration for his creations that made Manrique a unique artist.
