    • La Atalayita lies on the half way between Pozo Negro and the crossroad with the road FV2.
    Going from the road FV2 take the road FV 420 to Pozo Negro.
    The Settelment of la Atalayita lies on the left hand side.
    There was no sign indicating the settlement at the time I was there.
    You can see some reconstructed stone houses of the original inhabitants. The houses are made from loose stones without mortar.
    You can visit the cthe centro de Interpretation de la Atalayita and become acquainted with the life style of the old Canary people. ;-).
    The houses are very small and were used as a shelters against wind.

     Interesting comments and very helpful as I'll be visiting the island in April. Greetz,    		magor65 Sun Jul 20, 2008 18:46 UTC
     As usual your photos are excellent: I especially love the dunes and Las Playitas. Isn't travelling to warm places during Polish winter a wonderful thing? I wish I could afford it every year. Pozdrowienia
