La Palma is the most north-western Canary island.
Stretching over 708 square kilometres and reaching up to
2,426 metres above sea level, its visitors tend to give it the
nickname “La Isla Bonita” (the beautiful island) Its unique
topography, scenic variety, untouched nature, preserved
traditions and kind people surprise both islanders and
visitors.
The island’s culture, history, archaeology, handicrafts as
well as cuisine are its hidden gems. Plenty of museums
and visitor centres tell you the story of the island’s life
and culture.
Undoubtedly, La Palma’s clean and clear night sky is
one of its many symbols. It has attracted astronomers
and amateurs who are willing to unveil the Universe’s
mysteries and secrets at La Palma’s highest point: the
Roque de los Muchachos. Not in vain, la Palma is the first

Imagine a paradise for underwater diving. Yes, this is El
Hierro, the island that is bathed in transparent waters,
where lovers of diving come every year from all over the
world to photograph one of the best ocean depths of
the planet. Relax and chill out in this small corner of the
Atlantic that overflows with an abundance of nature.
You will be able to boast of having been in one of the
Biosphere Reserves of Europe. Take away with you an
unforgettable memory of volcanoes and lava fields, fertile
valleys, and dramatic cliffs up to 1000m high; dense
forests of species of vegetation that have survived in the
island since prehistoric times; trees that are a thousand
years old, twisted by the wind; reptiles that were thought
to be extinct... You will ask yourself how so much diversity
is possible in such a small territory, but you’ll realize that
here everything is authentic. Forget your stress and
turn your back on routine in this privileged island where
aboriginal legends tell of sacred trees: this is the place
that was considered the limit of the known world in
classical times.
But El Hierro is also the future. The island shows its
determination to maintain a system of sustainable
development, thanks to the construction of a hydroaeolic plant which will mean it is completely supplied by
clean, renewable energy, as well as making it independent
in terms of energy supplies.
