    Santa Cruz de la Palma, Spain
    • Santa Cruz de la Palma, Spain
    The capital of the island of Palma, Santa Cruz de la Palma is the pearl of the Canaries.

    San Sebastian de la Gomera, Spain
    • San Sebastian de la Gomera, Spain
    La Gomera rises from the water like a mirage. This volcanic island in the Canaries features jagged cliffs, valleys covered in palm trees, and beaches of black sand bathing in crystal-clear waters. But its greatest treasure lies at its heart: an exceptional laurisilva, a laurel forest whose prehistoric vegetation has been preserved thanks to the microclimate on the island. This unique ecosystem, common a few million years ago in the tropics, forms the Garajonay National Park, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Like the birds, the Guanches contribute to the poetry of the island too, with their whistled language called Silbo. This magical-sounding, melodious language is also listed as World Heritage by UNESCO. ...
