The majestic Teide volcano on the island of Tenerife is known for being the highest point in Spain and the third largest volcano in the world, but its 3,718 meters of height hold other fascinating curiosities that cannot be seen anywhere else on the planet.
One of them is the projection of the gigantic shadow of Teide during sunrise and sunset, which thanks to its height and the fact that all its horizons are free, is the largest shadow in the world projected on the sea.
This surreal shadow can extend up to about 150 km long and even cover other nearby islands.
In addition, this spectacle has an impressive optical effect, which is that although Teide does not have a pyramidal cone, with the sun at its lowest point the shadow becomes perfectly triangular in shape.
If we talk about unique experiences to live on your next incentive trip or MICE event in the Canary Islands, perhaps witnessing this spectacular natural phenomenon during the sunset in Tenerife is one of them.
