Jameos del Agua

Our penultimate stop was at Jameos del Aqua to the north of the island.

It had a great logo!

The area is famed for its visitable lava tunnel...


...complete with underground fresh-water lake.

Most impressively there's an underground auditorium (just think of the acoustics)...

...and interesting decorations.

Back in the open air the man-made lake looks like it's missing a few penguins... 

...but you can see the sea's not far away...

...with big waves too!

The volcanic tube (known as the Atlantis Tunnel) continues under the sea for nearly 2 km and is home to 32 species not found anywhere else on Earth.
