Our tips for La Gomera

A local once described La Gomera as a smaller La Palma, and they had a point. It's the quietest of the larger Canary Islands, with misty laurel forest in Garajonay, steep valleys and small villages along the coast. You fly into Tenerife and catch the ferry from there. Looking for peace and quiet and great hiking trails? Then this is your island.
