Hoyo Azul.
An easy track leads onwards, roughly parallel to the rugged coast, ending at a wall near a house at Caleta Negra. Pass the wall to follow a rugged path a short way; the track then continues, passing seawards of a ramshackle dwelling. Another wall is reached on the rugged Punta Ginés. Looking ahead, a prominent derelict building is seen – the Atlante del Sol. Rugged paths and tracks run all over the place, but none go in the right direction for long, and walkers must cross awkward areas of stones and boulders. Pass seawards of the big eyesore and scan the terrain ahead to spot paths and tracks that offer easy passage through the stones. Don’t walk too close to the sea, as there are rugged rocks that take too long to pass.
Look for a drystone shelter in this bleak and rugged landscape and an easy track leads onwards. Soon afterwards, especially if the sea is pounding into the rocky coast, watch for a twin blowhole, where one spout blows vertically and the other blows horizontally. The track is generally set away from the rocky shore, and is sandy in places on Los Llanos de las Maretas. A coastal trig point might be noticed off to the left at Piedra Alta, at a mere 28m (92ft). The track later rises a little onto a dark lava flow. Keep seawards of a prominent desalination plant. Later, the rough and rocky track gives way to a coastal path, which climbs a short way on a rocky slope then descends to a small dirt car park overlooking the Laguna de Janubio. Seawater is drawn into shallow rectangular ponds where it evaporates, depositing crusts of salt.
