Orzola

Near the Mirador del Rio, the small port town of Orzola is where the ferry to La Graciosa is to be found.  The rugged coastline has been built by volcanic eruptions like the rest of the island and here, the rocks have a very sharp, ragged edge to them.

Looking out to sea, the cliffs on which the Mirador is to be found, are both beautiful and awe inspiring with their coloured layers.

The open Atlantic comes crashing in to break on the rough coastline and one gets a restricted view of La Graciosa peeping round the headland.

While we wandered around the area, we were occasionally spattered with the sea spray as it crashed along the coast line - rugged and wild.
