Die Los Hervideros liegen zwischen El Golfo und den Salinas de Janubio an der Westküste von Lanzarote. An den Los Hervideros ist Lava aus den Vulkanausbrüchen direkt ins Meer geflossen. Beim Erstarren der Lava haben sich an dieser Stelle kleine fjordähnliche Einbuchtungen an der Küste gebildet, in denen die Brandung ein eindrucksvolles Naturschauspiel aufführt, das die unbändige Kraft zeigt, die in den Wellen des Atlantiks steckt. Unter tosendem Lärm schießen die Wassermassen der brandenden Wellen teilweise mehrere zehn Meter an den felsigen Wänden der Los Hervideros hoch und lassen eine kochende Gischt zurück. Besonders beeindruckend sind die Los Hervideros bei entsprechenden Windverhältnissen, die die Wellen mitunter mehrere Meter hoch anwachsen lassen.

Vom Parkplatz wurde ein kurzer Weg angelegt, der durch mehreren Löcher in den Lavamassen Einblick in Lavahöhlen bietet, in denen Wellen branden. Eintritt wird für die Los Hervideros nicht erhoben und auch der Parkplatz ist gebührenfrei.

The Los Hervideros are between El Golfo and the Salinas de Janubio on the west coast of Lanzarote. At the Los Hervideros lava from volcanic eruptions flowed directly into the sea. During solidification of the lava viewing on this small fjord-like indentations formed on the coast, where the surf lists an impressive natural spectacle, which shows the tremendous power that lies in the waves of the Atlantic. To thunderous noise shoot the water from the surging waves sometimes tens of meters along the rocky walls of the Los Hervideros high, leaving a cooking spray. Particularly impressive are the Los Hervideros with appropriate wind conditions, which make the waves grow sometimes several meters high.

A short walk from the parking lot was created, by offering several holes in the lava insight into lava caves, where surging waves. Admission is not charged for the Los Hervideros and the parking is free.
