As search teams continued their efforts into the night, they were unable to locate the missing person, despite the involvement of the Coast Guard, a helicopter, along with firefighters, medical responders, and police forces.

The authorities had warned the public about the dangers of high waves prior to this incident. Reports indicate that some people managed to rescue themselves from the water amidst the chaos. The state broadcaster RTVE reminded viewers that the authorities had issued warnings about hazardous wave conditions the day before. While natural pools are considered a hidden gem among holidaymakers, they can become life-threatening obstacles in rough seas, as towering waves pull individuals into the open ocean, where currents often make it impossible to return safely.

Just days before, on November 8, similar dramatic scenes unfolded on Tenerife when numerous people were again swept into the sea, resulting in three deaths and fifteen injuries. This latest tragic event has left the island shaken once more.
