La Gomera will fascinate you with its exuberant nature and unique biodiversity. Recognised as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, the island emerges as a true ecological jewel, standing out for its unparalleled biodiversity.
This small paradise has 17 protected natural spaces that will surprise you with their volcanic nature, their geographical location, their special morphology, their altitude and the goodness of their climate.
Botanical diversity
La Gomera, known as the "Green Island", is home to a surprising diversity of endemic plants and plant species that are unique in the world. From the towering laurel forests to the breathtaking cliffs that plunge into the ocean, every corner of the island is permeated with green spaces that will delight your senses.
The Garajonay National Park is recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It has one of the best examples of laurel forest, a humid forest of various evergreen species that covered practically all of Europe in the Tertiary period.
From our hotel you have the opportunity to immerse yourself in this exceptional natural landscape, exploring meandering trails that take you through ancient forests and lush valleys. Among the most emblematic botanical species are the laurel, the heather, the faya and the Canary Islands dragon tree, the latter being considered a symbol of the island.
Special fauna
La Gomera's biodiversity is not only limited to its flora, but is also home to a fascinating variety of fauna, many of which are endemic to the island. From majestic birds to marine creatures, the island's wildlife offers an unrivalled spectacle for those who know where to look.
The coastal cliffs are home to seabirds such as the storm petrel and Bulwer's petrel, while the forests are home to species such as the blackbird and blue chaffinch.
In addition, the crystal clear waters surrounding the island are a whale-watching paradise, with dolphins and whales visiting these shores. The maritime corridor between Tenerife and La Gomera is the first certified pilot whale heritage site in Europe.
