Stop destroying our coast!

Why is this important?

Presented as a “regenerative” space with underwater gardens and high-end entertainment activities, Underwater Garden is in fact a speculative megaproject in a protected area that will endanger the ecosystem, restrict free access to the sea, and negatively impact the lifestyle of the local community.

Why we say NO:

• It is not regenerative: it is a luxury theme park that will bring speculation, overcrowding, and destruction.
• Severe environmental impact: it will alter marine and coastal ecosystems, increase boat traffic, and affect vulnerable species.
• It excludes the community: it effectively privatizes a space that has always been freely used by locals.
• A threat to a unique wave: its infrastructure could change currents and ruin an iconic wave for surfers and biodiversity.
• Gentrification: it will raise housing prices and displace the local population.
• Lack of transparency: the promoter hides key information and greenwashes the project.
• Dangerous precedent: it would open the door to more destructive megaprojects we’ve been fighting for years, like the now-forgotten Fonsalía port.

Instead of further destroying the coast and local lifestyle, there are sustainable and respectful alternatives for nature and island culture:

• Protect the coast and seabed: expand reserves like the Special Conservation Zone (ZEC) Teno-Rasca and effectively protect existing ones.
• Regenerate degraded coastal areas: restore natural spaces and conserve biodiversity without turning nature into a business.
• Promote dignified local economies: support the primary sector and the blue economy, creating real jobs for the local population.

Tenerife doesn’t need more theme parks and greenwashing projects—it needs to protect its natural wealth.
