View of reefs, volcanic rocks and the Atlantic Ocean in Playa Paraiso, a little tourist town in the Costa Adeje area on Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain. This landscape is very typical of the south of the island. Northern Tenerife is much greener. Yet, the omnipresent solidifed lava is a trait that all regions of Tenerife as well as the other Canary Islands have in common as they are all of volcanic origin.
