Beschrijving
Punta de Teno is the western-most point on Tenerife and one of the better seawatching points on the north coast. Most of the time you can see Kuhls Pijlstormvogel, quit often in large groups. Also sometimes Kleine Pijlstormvogel and Jan-van-gent. The spectacular cliffs of Los Gigantes around this part of the coast hold breeding Barbarijse Valk and this is one of the few places on Tenerife where Visarend is sometimes observed. Other birds you can see in the area are Brilgrasmus, Berthelots Pieper, Raaf, Torenvalk, Kleine Zilverreiger, Steenloper and sometimes Rotsmus.
