A stiff hike from Yé village, about an hour and with a descent of the cliffs. It's a rare expanse of sand but has no water, shade or other facilities; when the wind is from the west the breakers are rough. Then you steel yourself for the return ascent and hike, over sharp volcanic rocks that shred flimsy trainers.

A lookout carved out of the scarp of Batería del Río in 1971-73 by César Manrique, with a café and viewing platform landscaped into the rock with a clear view of La Graciosa.
Palm Grove House
Home and studio of César Manrique, brilliantly decorated in his style. His other place was the volcano house (Taro de Tahíche) in Tahíche near Costa Teguise, a combi ticket is available.
This is the show cave in a series of lava tunnels created during the eruption of La Corona 4,000 years ago. The interconnected tunnels stretch over 8 km, with some parts submerged. A 45-minute guided tour takes you through a well-lit section, but you need to be reasonably agile over the rough surface. Some of the passageways are very narrow and you need to duck your head multiple times.
