About
Piscina Natural de Jover is the north-east pool for people who want something calmer than a wild charco but less built-up than Bajamar or Lago Martiánez. It sits on the Tejina coast with a compact seawater basin, rock platforms, coastal views toward Punta del Hidalgo and a rare practical detail: freshwater showering from mountain water channelled through the rock.

The mood is local and slow. It can suit families better than rougher lava pools, but the Atlantic still decides whether the day is easy.

Guest review summary
Commonly mentioned by visitors.
People like the renovated layout, shallow seawater pool, lifeguard presence in some periods and space to relax on calm days.
Showers, nearby parking and a small local-food option make it more practical than many wild north-coast charcos.
The coastal view toward Punta del Hidalgo and surrounding rock pools add scenery beyond a simple swim.
Winter storms and rough sea can close or limit the pool more often than visitors expect.
It is less dramatic than wilder lava pools if you are mainly chasing raw scenery.
North-coast weather can change quickly, so layers and a backup plan help.

Easily my favorite natural pool and area to relax! The pools are beautiful and well maintained. There are lifeguards present as well. Lots of space to lay out a blanket or towel to relax for the day

Very beautiful, but doesn't operate when sea storms (practically very often in winter)

This is one of the most fantastic natural pool I've ever been. As it's north Tenerife the weather is hectic, when we were there it has changed raining or just being cloudy but still it was worth every minute. The ocean is angrier here then in the south but this gives it's beauty. There are a lot of crabs here on the rocks which is a fantastic experience, you can gently approach them pretty close. The pool's water is clean and fresh, it's changing continually and easy to go in, it isn't sliding. There is life guard just in case but they don't really speak English. The toilet was pretty clean. The parking as normally in Tenerife is free and there's plenty. We didn't find any shop but frankly we didn't looked for it.

Really fantastic place - nice seawater pool (not too big) and lots of rock to walk on with infinite number of crabs. You can take amazing pictures of the north-west seaside. There is a parking space nearby, otherwise it’s some walk from Tejina… There is a bus station, also. There was no lifeguard when we were there.

I have no words 😶 is stunning 🤩 highly recommended, there is a small restaurant on the right side, next to the parking you can find toilets (they were very clean), 2 safeguards were watching people swimming and jumping, a lot of space for sunbathing. We was with 6 years old and he has best day ever.

Easy rather than wild
Jover is useful when the plan needs a straightforward swim stop on the La Laguna coast without the logistics of a larger beach day.

Q&A (4)
Is Jover good with children?
Yes in calm conditions. It is more practical than many wild charcos, but children still need close supervision because the pool is ocean-fed.
Is there a shower?
Yes, Jover is noted for freshwater showering from water channelled through the rock.
Is it accessible?
Tourism sources describe reduced-mobility access, but check current conditions if accessibility is essential.
Is it worth a long detour?
Usually no. It works best as a Tejina / north-east coast stop rather than a cross-island target.
