The Teno-Rasca Marine Strip is a protected marine area on the west coast of Tenerife that is part of the Natura 2000 network, a European network of high ecological value natural spaces. Its objective is to conserve the most threatened habitats and species, as well as to harmonize the development of human activities with respect for nature. The area covers an area of nearly 70,000 hectares and spans five costal municipalities. It was designated as a Special Conservation Area (SCA) in 2011 and is managed with appropriate protecton measures.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

This marine strip features a wide variety of seabed types and complex structural formations. The fish community is represented by at least 358 species, and the waters are regularly inhabited by the loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) and the green turtle (Chelonia mydas), as well as occasional sighting of hawksbill turtules (Eretmochelys imbricata) and leatherback turtles (Dermochelys coriacea). Additionally, it offers unparalleled conditions for the presence of largeand medium-sized cetaceans, with up to 22 different species recorded.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

It’s worth noting the various types of natural habitats of community interest: 1110 Sandbanks that are permanently submerged by shallow marine waters, 1170 Reefs, and 8330 Submerged or partially submerged sea caves. Additionally, in this area, you can observe species of community interest such as the loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta), the green turtle (Chelonia mydas), and the common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
