More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You stand on the windward lip of Taucho, boots braced on volcanic scree, and the Atlantic lifts the wing like an answering hand. Below, Costa Adeje unfurls in strips of sand and tile; above, the canopy fills and the cliff exhales. For 10–15 minutes the island rearranges itself — ridgelines flatten, the sea dares you with white caps, and thermals tuck you into pockets of warm air.
