La Palma
Caldera de Taburiente · Cumbre Vieja volcano · stargazing · laurel forest · observatory
La Palma — La Isla Bonita and La Isla Verde — is the Canary Islands' greenest, most rugged island. A UNESCO Biosphere Reserve crowned by Caldera de Taburiente National Park, it offers dramatic volcanic landscapes, lush northern valleys, world-class stargazing, and the raw beauty of a 2021 eruption zone. Each area has its own character: the capital Santa Cruz on the east with colonial charm, Los Llanos as the commercial hub, western black sand beaches, and mountain villages for hiking. Choose your base according to your travel style.
