Bufadero de la Garita, Gran Canaria, Spain

Have you ever heard of the Bufadero de la Garita? It"s on the Spanish island of Gran Canaria, off the Atlantic coast of Northwest Africa. This natural phenomenon is a wonder you can"t miss. Found on the picturesque eastern coast of the island, the "Bufadero" is a fascinating sea-based blowhole in the rocks where seawater enters and exits with force, creating an impressive spectacle, as we can see in today’s image.
