The Pink Cave of Tenerife – A Hidden Gem You Can Only Reach by Kayak

The Pink Cave of Palm-Mar Tenerife

Why is it called the “Pink Cave”?

Tucked away along the rugged southern coast of Tenerife lies a place full of mystery and natural beauty: the Pink Cave of Palm-Mar. This hidden gem is only accessible from the sea, making it one of the island’s most exclusive spots.

It’s a highlight of our guided kayak tours with Easy Kayak Tenerife, and a place you won’t find in any traditional travel guide. The cave gets its name from the unique pinkish tones that appear on the rock walls when sunlight hits at the right angle. It’s said that old fishermen once used this place as a shelter, and local stories even tell of mermaids and sea travelers.

Whether myth or truth, the atmosphere inside is unforgettable.

A place you can only reach by kayak

Located along the cliffs between Palm-Mar and Las Galletas, this spot lies within a protected marine reserve. You won’t find a trail that leads there—only the sea gives access. Because it is sheltered by high volcanic cliffs, the only way to witness its magic is by paddling through crystal-clear waters.
