This marketplace operates on Sundays from 08:00 to 14:00, so a morning visit is the only option.

Gofio, a toasted grain flour, turns up in island breads, stews and desserts, and a market morning is a good place to come across it.
The Canary Islands are a volcanic archipelago, and Tenerife's Mount Teide is the highest peak in Spain. Whales, dolphins and sea turtles live in the surrounding waters, and several islands have protected laurel forests. The main islands were home to the Guanche people before Spanish conquest in the fifteenth century.
