We only got the car around 11 a.m. so our exploration started in the harshest part of the day. We drove south, past Puerto del Rosario, and made our first stop at Costa de Antigua. The shore with cliffs is impressive.475 views
We then drove on a dirt road along the coast. Peter was happy. :)395 views

Returning to the north we stopped at the Corralejo dunes. Yellow sand and turquoise sea, it was a beautiful sight.280 views
A bit more to the south there are the salt pans of Las Salinas. The light was terrible but at least there weren't many visitors so we had the place almost to ourselves.266 views
