🐟 Crystal Lagoon: armholes on white sand

The lava arc forms a natural dam that soothes the waves. Orange buoys draw an emerald rectangle; you only have to sink your head to greet old women, filas and trumpet fish. Those who swim 2 km leave the “pool”, turn to Las Cucharas and return along the promenade: the aquatic version of an urban mile.

🌺 Candela Fest: sport that sparks smiles

From the start, families paint banners with number 7 —Alejandro's talisman— while a quartet of timple and guitar plays the soundtrack. Volunteers distribute solidarity bracelets that finance swimming scholarships for schoolchildren in Teguise. At the end of the last test comes the “Hello Candle”: all into the water to form a human circle seen from a drone. Competing matters; feeling Jablillo's energy, even more so.
