Three people have tragically lost their lives and another three have sustained injuries after being swept into the sea in Tenerife. The incident occurred at a complex of natural pools on the Los Gigantes cliffs in the north-west of the island. Officials reported that two men, aged 35 and a woman aged 55, were among the deceased. Emergency services were alerted shortly after 4pm when a large wave unexpectedly knocked the victims into the water. A woman at the scene went into cardiac arrest but was revived and subsequently airlifted to hospital. Another woman, aged 39, was also taken to hospital with injuries described as "moderate". Local reports indicate that several of the casualties were foreign tourists, although the exact nationalities have not been officially confirmed. It is believed that the deceased include an Italian and a Slovenian national. There is currently no information regarding the presence of British or Irish nationals among the victims. This incident follows a similar tragedy on November 8, when three people died and 15 were injured after being swept out to sea by high waves. The most severe incident occurred in Puerto de la Cruz, where a 79-year-old Dutch holidaymaker lost her life after being knocked off a sea wall. On the same day, six French tourists were swept into the ocean but managed to survive. In another recent case, a search was conducted for a British pensioner who fell from a TUI-operated cruise ship near the Canary Islands. The 76-year-old went overboard from the Marella Explorer 2, prompting a two-day search operation that ultimately concluded without finding him. In light of these incidents, a Canary Islands safety organisation has called for hotels to enhance warnings for holidaymakers regarding ocean dangers. Sebastian Quintana, president of Canarias 1500 Km de costa, linked the recent tragedies to tourists' lack of understanding of the Atlantic Ocean's power. He urged for better signage and temporary barriers, particularly in areas like Puerto de la Cruz, where eyewitnesses noted a lack of safety measures despite warnings of waves reaching up to 15ft. Quintana emphasised the need for hotels to inform guests about ocean conditions, suggesting that a simple multilingual sign at hotel receptions could save lives. He stated, "It's as simple as putting a sign up in reception in several languages every time an alert or a pre-alert is activated, with the following message: 'Don't go to the beach today, the Canary Islands coastline is on alert for high waves and heavy swell.'" He further highlighted that as tourism increases, so do the number of accidents involving visitors, urging tourists to exercise responsibility and common sense. Quintana concluded, "Human beings are the danger, not the coastline per se, because of recklessness which is the common denominator in these types of accidents." Authorities continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the latest tragedy as they work to enhance safety measures for tourists in the region.
