Queen Sofía spent a few days in Tenerife attending various events, such as the celebration of the 30 years of the Heritage Cities in the Cathedral of La Laguna, or a release of loggerhead turtles on Las Teresitas beach, in Santa Cruz.
Additionally, the Queen visited the Wildlife Recovery Center “La Tahonilla”, one of the most highly regarded animal centres nationally. There, she took a stroll through the facilities and had an emotional moment with one of the turtles, playing with it.

Queen Sofía was seen alongside the president of the Tenerife Island Council, Rosa Dávila, and the President of the Canary Islands Parliament, Astrid Pérez, during her visit. During her walk, she had the opportunity to name the two turtles that were released after their recovery.

The chosen names were ‘Lemon’ and ‘Elma’, all this before travelling to the Las Teresitas beach, in the neighbourhood of San Andrés, in Santa Cruz, where she enjoyed a pleasant time with the authorities and the young people present.
