The Tenerife Island Council has advised several municipalities in the south of the island to take preventive measures against the potential arrival of a groundswell episode from this Wednesday until Friday, between the municipalities of Adeje and Arico, primarily with the possibility of extending to El Rosario and Fasnia.
The president of the insular Corporation, Rosa Dávila, indicates that the available reports point out that the groundswell, with waves up to two and a half meters high, will last until next Friday, therefore recommending the population to take extreme precautions when accessing the coast.

The forecast of the sea state indicates the arrival of a south-facing groundswell, an unusual direction in the islands that will involve changes in currents and in the intensity with which the waves will impact the coastline and beaches. This situation will coincide with high tides of the full moon, and although there are low chances of coastal flooding, it is necessary to alert the municipalities to take the necessary preventive measures.
