Heartbreaking news from Tenerife: a powerful tidal surge has tragically claimed the lives of three individuals, with 15 more injured along the coast. The incidents occurred on Saturday as enormous waves swept people into the Atlantic Ocean in areas such as La Guancha, Puerto de la Cruz, and Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Sadly, one man’s body was found near a beach in Granadilla.
Local authorities had issued warnings about the potential dangers, urging everyone to stay away from coastal paths and resist the temptation to capture the dramatic scenes on camera. The beautiful Canary Islands, a favourite hotspot for UK holidaymakers, turned perilous as nature unleashed its fury.
Let’s keep those affected in our thoughts during this difficult time, and remember the importance of heeding safety warnings when enjoying coastal areas. Stay safe out there, everyone! 🌊💔
