Set amid glorious volcanic landscapes, 6km north of La Restinga, this insightful multilingual centre details the original creation of the Canary Islands and studies what exactly causes a volcanic eruption through computerised screens, special effects and a suitably evocative soundtrack. Then you wander through lava fields to a second building, where the 2011 volcanic eruption that took place just off El Hierro is brought to life by giant screens.
