About Jameos del Agua
Jameos del Agua is a section of the La Corona volcanic tube and the first of the Centres created by César Manrique: you descend through the Jameo Chico to an interior lake, home to a blind crab found nowhere else, then on to the Jameo Grande with its pool and a natural auditorium for the evening concerts, “Noches de Jameos”. Open every day 10am–6pm, last admission 5.15pm (CACT).
Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with Jameos del Agua before you go.
