Unfortunately, an information of actual times is nowhere to be found. We came here to swim as good weather was predicted foolishly thinking the area is opened all year round. Well let me tell you it opens on 23rd of June and remains opened only for a couple of months. Many travelers (including ourselves) visited the place, however, swimming is not allowed. The place was packed in January so I am only guessing how busy it can be in summer time. Definitely a great place to swim with a few pools not affected by the waves. Plenty of crabs and fishes too!

That is, you had to enter from a passage next to the pool because the main entrance is closed. Then there is the concrete walkway which is disgusting. To forget
Anyway they swim everywhere there but the day was windy and no one was in the tubs. There is a large car park at the entrance to the town, then the road is internal so you don't breathe in car exhaust fumes. There is a park in the main square that is small but super cool, you don't expect it and it is very well looked after.

We visited this December and the pools were closed for safety reasons as the tide was swelling and you would be smashed against the sharp lava rocks.
We were able to walk along the walkways and view the area which is worth seeing anyway. It would have been great to swim here in calmer times.

It is a wonderful and charming place.
The fusion of the arbitrariness of the lava, the force of the sea and the modern and environmentally responsible design is wonderful.
Visiting it is a pleasure, exploring it is a discovery, and if you can and/or want to bathe, it is majestic.

Nature creates wonderful environments and places like this. Your visit is not always available, you have to confirm opening season and good weather conditions. If everything is optimal you will enjoy a unique place.

All advertising for Garachico talks about the natural pools - but not that they are only open June-September. (And the public swimming pool is also closed.) So you can look, but cannot even lie out on the rocks, let alone swim. Perhaps one should stop seeing Tenerife as a winter destination. Why not be upfront about this?

When visiting the North of Tenerife Island, you have to keep in mind that it is very important to see the weather if you really want to enjoy a good swim. Otherwise, you can see the pools and views, but not bathe.
We visited the El Caleton and El Charco de los Chochos Natural Pools and could not swim because of the unpredictable weather in the north of the island. But they're worth seeing at least.

Red flag today meaning no bathing, which was disappointing. Whilst it was close to low tide when we arrived, the tide had turned, but it didn't look like the flags would be changed. Shame it doesn't give any more information on a website before making the trip, or maybe we just missed it. Another time - they look fun.

Our first visit to Garachico and we were thrilled to find this restaurant on the seafront. Excellent food, staff and view. We had lunch and chose the wrinkled potatoes with various sauces, garlic prawns followed by bao bao pork. A little more costly than some other places in town but we’ll worth it. If you are in the area give it a try 10/10.

These pools are extraordinary and well worth seeing. In winter the sea is very rough and some of the paths constructed round are closed. But still well worth exploring. It helps to read first how they were formed after the eruption in the 18th century. Unmissable.

¿se puede encontrar aparcamiento fácilmente por la zona?
Written July 16, 2018
Al final del pueblo, dejando las piscinas a mano derecha, hay un parking gratuito. Los fines de semana y fechas especiales puede ser complicado aparcar

Son accesibles para una perdona con baja visión? Y en Agosto, están masificadas?
Written July 13, 2018
Hola Raquel. Hay accesos por escalones y por escaleras rectas. Las primeras dan a una piscina mas cerrada y segura con barandilla. Las segundas dan a las mas pegadas al mar.
Normalmente en verano estan muy masificadas a partir de las 12'00 h. Es un lugar muy pequeño.

¿Tiene algún horario ? ¿Se puede ir a cualquier hora de la tarde?
Written July 10, 2018
No tienen horario ninguno, pero, si está la marea alta o hay temporal, cierran parcialmente el acceso para evitar accidentes.
