About Monumento Natural de Los Órganos

The nature is tremendously capricious and fruit of that whim in La Gomera is possible to see some cliffs whose shape resembles the tubes of a giant organ, this natural wonder receives the unmistakable name of The Organs. As if it were a huge stone organ it was The Organs are located in the municipality of Vallehermoso, you have dimensions of 200 meters long by 80 high and are impressive basalt columns that form the wall of a cliff. It is only possible to see this natural wonder through the sea, so it is necessary to board a boat and navigate to this impressive place.

From the Valle Gran Rey and Playa de Santiago is possible to arrive thanks to the organized excursions that depart from these urban centers.

Actually, these structures that resemble organs are a mass of magma that did not rise to the surface and quickly cooled, causing it to break down in a regular way like the ones you can see. Then the scourge of the sea in the northern part of La Gomera, was in charge of excavating, cutting and sculpting these curious shapes.
