The
origin of the Hervideros of Lanzarote
The Timanfaya’s eruptions
occured in the XVIII century and they really affected Lanzarote, especially on
the west coast of the island.
The famous Hervideros
originated through a curious phenomenon. The volcanic eruptions have been very
strong and abundant in this area of Lanzarote, arriving up to the sea. This made that big
lava languages of a considerable high, arrived up to
the sea. The contact of
the incandescent lava and the sea water, produced a quick cooling of the lava,
originating these impressive formations. The erosion generated
by the waves breaking, created during the years a series of cliffs with hidden
caves and holes, that keep a magic secret.

the magic of the Hervideros of Lanzarote
You are probably
wondering what makes so special this volcanic formation beloning to the Geoparque of Lanzarote.
The Hervideros of Lanzarote
offer to the visitor a unic show of the nature. When the waves break on the
cliffs, water sneaks through the holes formed by the erosion. It’s when waves look
for an exit among the cavities and coming to peek through
some of the holes. They form a lot of foam and a great rumble. Water columns called
bufaderos can reach several meters high above the surface. It’s a great show. The moment in which
water meets the earth produces a sound that remembers
boiling water. Here the
origin of the name.
When
visit the Hervideros
The Hervideros of Lanzarote can be visited whenewer you want. Our suggestion, in order to see it
in its maximum splendor, it’s to come a day when the sea is very rocky. You can visit the
site alone but being careful because it can be dangerous
for children or people
with reduced mobility. The street that
arrives there, has been designed by César Manrique, and it allows the visitor
to see this almost mistic place in a magic way. There is a parking and clear indications but just the common
sense
indicates to the visitor up where the access is possible.
