This walk follows the coastal path. You need to park along the beach south of Santa Cruz. Then take the coastal path between the hotels, accommodation and the sea before enjoying superb views of the rugged lava coastline, with small coves and black-sand beaches.

Departure from Garafía (Province de Las Palmas)
Loop from Maison de la Zarza to Don Pedro.
The outward journey is downhill, through lush laurel bushes followed by a view of the ocean. Logically, the return journey is uphill, but it nevertheless offers some fine viewpoints, notably of the Mirador de Dona Pola.
The hike includes some (short) steep but not particularly technical sections, and a few fast stretches on the road.
