The village Benijo
Benijo is situated at the foot of the Anaga Mountains and is inhabited only by local people. The road ends here, you can only walk on foot. Furthermore there are picturesque hiking routes in the untouched nature of the Anaga Mountains.
While driving in the direction of the coast you will see the rocks "Roques de Anaga" rise out of the water. It seems so unreal that these rocks aside the shore were simply placed there by nature in the middle of water. But exactly that makes this coast so special.
From the bar El Fronton you will have an amazing view over the "Roques de Anaga" and over the whole North East peak of Tenerife.
