Caldera de Bandama / Tafira
is part of the Tafira Protected Landscape on the island of Gran Canaria in the Canary Islands, Spain.
It’s considered a point of geological interest, because of the Caldera de Bandama. This volcanic crater, which is geologically a maar rather than a caldera, reaches 569 m (1,867 ft) above sea level at the highest point on its rim, Pico de Bandama, and is about 1,000 m (3,300 ft) wide and 200 m (700 ft) deep. The bottom of the caldera contains volcanic ash of different colours, and some botanic species of Canary Islands origin.
