About El Hierro

El Hierro is the smallest and most south-westerly of the Spanish Canary Islands, situated off the northwest coast of Africa.

It offers a more relaxed atmosphere than the other Canary Islands due to its sparse population, making it an ideal peaceful getaway. It isn’t without its fascinating cultural history either, most notably the museum in Valverde which showcases all aspects of rural life on the island, as well as the site of the legendary holy tree that miraculously provided water to the indigenous Bimbaches.

Also, as a UNESCO Geopark, El Hierro has an impressive landscape comprising dramatic cliffs and a lush juniper forest, which is home to the critically endangered El Hierro giant lizard.

From the port of Valverde on the northeast coast, there are ferry routes provided almost every day to Los Cristianos on Tenerife, a town known for its sandy beaches and excellent whale watching spots.

About La Gomera

The small, circular island of La Gomera nestles between Tenerife, El Hierro and La Palma in the Spanish Canary Islands.

Characteristic of all the Canaries, La Gomera is volcanic in origin, defined by steep mountains and deep ravines. As you would expect, then, the island has some truly excellent viewpoints and an enormous network of hiking trails, all overlooking the UNESCO World Heritage listed Garajonay National Park and laurel rainforests.

La Gomera is also noted as Christopher Columbus’ last port of call before discovering America. Consequently, there are some intriguing monuments and buildings where, according to folklore, he prayed and lived.

As a tightknit group of islands, travelling by ferry is a convenient way of getting around the Canaries. In terms of reaching La Gomera, it has the popular holiday spot of Tenerife immediately to the east and La Palma to the northwest, so it’s within easy reach from these islands, with ferries docking in San Sebastian.
