La Palma has always been the island in the Canaries that fascinated me the most—a smaller island with fewer tourist zones. It is home to international observatories under the perfect night sky
La Palma also known as La isla bonita located in northwesterly island of the Canary Islands, Spain, with most beautiful beaches, seafood and their unique black sands
Now let’s start with the top spots
Candelaria de Poris
beautiful villages on the entire Island. This small fishing Community which is tucked in at the back of a cave at the bottom of a cliff facing westward, which means that sunsets here are the absolute best time to come visit. Since the sun only penetrates at the later hours of the day , this is the best time to get nice views like these where you get the whole village illuminated and get to witness some of the most dramatic sunsets to be seen anywhere on the island.
Roque De Los Muchachos
this island we have the Roque de los Muchachos. This is where you’re going to get the absolute most breathtaking views where you will be able to see on the best of days all the other Canary Islands.
You can do some great hiking around this point but if you just have a short amount of time there
is a parking lot right beside where you just do the last 200 M by foot to soak in amazing views
like these.
its not only a geological feature but also a key site for global astronomical research, making it a unique destination for both nature lovers and science enthusiasts.
La Fajana
This epic rock pools of La Fajana are unlike any others that you’re
going to find in the Canary Islands. Although many other Islands have epic rock pools none
are as isolated as this one and arguably as Jaw dropping.
Its stands out as a highlight for tourists looking to experience the unique geological features of La Palma in a relaxed and scenic setting.
Las Salinas De Fuencaliente
Las Salinas de Fuencaliente are traditional salt pans where sea salt is harvested using age-old methods. They are the only salt flats still in operation in the western Canary Islands.
Las Salinas de Fuencaliente is a must-visit for anybody interested in culture, nature, or gastronomy because it not only provides an insight into traditional salt manufacturing but also showcases La Palma’s natural richness and visual splendor
Cumbre Vieja Crater
- It’s part of a larger volcanic system on the island but is particularly noted for its recent volcanic activity. Cumbre Vieja is one of the most active volcanic zones in the Canary Islands, with eruptions occurring periodically over the centuries.
- After the 2021 eruption, new tourist attractions have emerged, like the lava fields and the new volcanic cone named “Volcán de Tajogaite
