El Hierro: en la cresta de la ola - on the top of the wave

En el mes de abril, estuve una semana buceando en el Hierro. Reconozco que no fue la mejor época, las condiciones del mar no eran las habituales en la isla, pero según pasaron los días, como un virus, se te iba metiendo el fondo marino en el cuerpo, y el último día no nos queríamos volver.
La belleza de la isla es sublime en superficie y en sus fondos, el norte de la isla te regala unos paisajes excepcionales (y qué gastronomía), y en el sur están los puntos de buceo que han hecho famosa esta pequeña isla. El mero Pancho ya no está, pero otro le ha sustituido y parece que al menos seguirá la tradición del primero.

Llevamos más de un mes con las noticias de que pueda haber una erupción en la isla, y dos amigos míos lo estaban siguiendo más de cerca aún, porque en unos días tenían reservadas sus vacaciones allí. Parece que la cosa amaina, y me alegro mucho, esta es una época estupenda para bucear en cualquier sitio, pero con la fauna de El Hierro, desde luego el resultado va a ser muy interesante.

Yo este fin de semana espero que el temporal de levante que hay en previsión no sea tan fuerte como esperan. Si no, me veo haciendo fotos en la playa a los sarguitos que se atrevan a estar cerca de la orilla. Pero pienso probar la lente macro que compré la semana pasada.

Pasad un estupendo fin de semana, aquí os dejo unas fotos de El Hierro. Disfrutadlas!!










Last April, I spent a week diving in El Hierro. I have to say it was not the best timing, and the sea conditions were not the used on the island, but day by day, like a virus, the island was taking its place on your heart, and the last day we did not want to come back.

The beauty of the island is sublime, on the surface and underwater, the north offers you an amazing landscapes (and the food!!), and in the south you find the underwater that made the island become famous. The grouper Pancho is not there anymore, but another one has taken his place, and seems that will follow the tradition of the former one.

For a month we have been listening news about a potential eruption on the island. Two friends of mine are following closer that news, because on a few days they made reservations on the island. It seems that the rumor is decreasing, and I am very happy for them, because it is a great time for diving anywhere, but with the live you can see on El Hierro, the result of their holidays it is going to be very interesting.

I hope this weekend the forecast will be wrong, and the wind would be less intense than the expected. If not, I imagine myself taking photographs of lost soldiers close to the beach. But I am decided of testing the macro lens that I bought last week.

Have a great weekend, here you have some photos from El Hierro. Enjoy them!!
