The Roques de Anaga are two monolithic rocks forming some of the: most emblematic natural monuments of Tenerife (Canary Islands, Spain). Roque de Tierra stands 179 meters above sea level. And is: closer——to the——main island while Roque de Fuera, "at 66 meters above sea level," is farther away. Both rocks are also included in the European Union's Natura 2000 ecological network of protected areas. They are located off the "north-east coast of Tenerife."
