the giants of tenerife

They dominate the south of the island, looming over the Atlantic shores. They are a constant reminder of Tenerife's volcanic origins. Towns have come and gone on top of, on the side of and in the shadows of them.  


Birds and clouds on top, the salty Atlantic water at the bottom - there's always some kind of flow, some kind of current interfacing with them. Centuries of corrosion, storms, sedimentary deposits, construction and vegetation have given Los Gigantes their character.
