A significant landslide occurred yesterday afternoon in Masca, near the Buenavista del Norte coast in Tenerife. A large section of a hillside near the new pier collapsed, creating a dense cloud of dust that caught locals and visitors by surprise.
The whole incident was captured on video by holidaymakers on a nearby boat, who witnessed the rocks breaking away and plunging into the sea.
Despite the alarming nature of the landslide, no personal injuries or significant property damage has been reported, according to local residents.
The Masca Valley has been in the news for several reasons over the last few months. Firstly, because it is the first natural space in Tenerife that now has an entry fee for visitors and, secondly, as it is the area that Jay Slater disappeared from in June, only for his body to be found a month later at the bottom of a deep ravine.
