Rescue teams searched late into the evening for the missing person but were unable to locate them. The operation involved the coastguard, a helicopter, and personnel from the fire department, medical services, and police.

Warnings had been issued by officials regarding dangerous wave conditions. Reports indicate that some individuals were able to make it back to safety on their own. The state broadcaster RTVE reminded the public that authorities had alerted residents and tourists about hazardous waves as early as Sunday.

The natural pools, often regarded as hidden gems, can become perilous in rough seas, with towering waves pulling people into the open ocean and strong currents making it extremely difficult to swim back.

Just recently, on November 8, similar distressing scenes took place in Tenerife, where many were again swept into the sea, leading to three fatalities and numerous injuries.
