Exploring La Palma

Caldera de Taburiente National Park is one of the island’s most treasured and visited attractions. It is perfect for those looking for a quiet wander in the natural surroundings or for the more experienced hikers. It is believed to have been a giant crater. You will instantly fall in love with the beautiful mountain scenery; you will not want to leave!

When you first land in La Palma, astronomy may not be your first thought but it is something you should bear in mind. It is fast becoming one of the most unique and popular excursions on the island with many companies now offering stargazing tours and classes. One of the most famous observatories on the island is the Roque de los Muchachos Astrophysics Observatory. This is the perfect place to gaze at the stars on a clear night. There is telescope renting and a variety of tours all tailored for you to take advantage of the wonders of the night sky.

Children and adults will both love the Maroparque Isla de La Palma, a zoo which is located on the edge of a ravine. The botanical and zoological setting is not only home to a variety of species such as monkeys, snakes, porcupines, birds, crocodiles and even albino wallabies; it also gives access to some of the most extensive views of the island.

Recently La Palma has become a popular hotspot for paragliding enthusiasts. Paragliding schools are now offering specialist holidays as the conditions of the island are perfect for the sport. Many experts are on the island to advise those on any skill level from beginners to highly experienced paragliders. What better way to appreciate what this beautiful island has to offer than from a bird’s eye view from the skies?

Why not try the delicious cuisine that is on offer? Tapas and paella are readily available at most restaurants and bars but the star of the show is the fresh seafood. What could be better than sitting by the sea with a glass of wine and some Gambas al ajillo?

Sightseeing in and around Santa Cruz

Why not visit the island’s capital, Santa Cruz? You’ll find a host of shops in Calle Real where you can pick up a gift or two. Afterwards you’ll likely be in need of some refreshment and the Avienda Marritima is the perfect place to head to. It is a road just on the coast which has lots of outdoor cafes. You will be able to enjoy the fresh seafood no doubt caught on their doorstep and finish the afternoon off with some people watching on the seafront.

Take a trip to the other side of the island to the town of Tazacorte. For something to tell everyone back home, hike up to the Mirador El Time, a Tapas bar with a stunning mountain view. Not only can you enjoy amazing local food you will also be able to get in some once in a lifetime photos. Try out one of the many boat excursions on offer. The majority of the boat trips will include swimming, snorkelling and whale and dolphin spotting. Chances are you will spot a lot more marine life as well! What better way to spend the day?

For those who love culture and history, Puntallana is the place for you. Hire a car and travel here. For a slightly surreal history fix a visit to the Casa Lujan Museum and it will be an unforgettable experience. All of the rooms have been restored to show how people lived between 1920 and 1960. It is also home to some interesting guests in the form of life size rag dolls, a bit different from your normal museum mannequin!
