Today we will explore La Gomera, also known as Columbus Island.
Despite its modest size, this island is a real ecological treasure. Its coastline is dotted with small black beaches, surrounded by majestic cliffs.
The wild and mountainous landscape of La Gomera is full of contrasts: from palm valleys in huge canyons and desolate shores to magical forests.
The pearl of the island is Garajonay National Park, a prehistoric forest included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. Exploring its many trails and routes shall become an unforgettable experience. It is home to a large number of rare species, such as the giant Canary lizard. This large lizard, up to 1 meter long, was once widespread in the Canary Islands, but today it is on the verge of extinction.
The island is ideal for hiking, offering amazing routes with spectacular scenery.

We return to Tenerife.
Our route will follow the strait between La Gomera and Tenerife. This is a great place to observe marine mammals. The abundance of food in these waters attracts whales, which creates unique opportunities for their observation. You have a chance to see striped baleen whales, sperm whales, orcas and even blue whales. The Strait is also home to a variety of dolphins and other marine animals such as turtles, sharks, seabirds and various species of fish.
By the sunset we will arrive at our home marina. In the evening, we will share our impressions over dinner at one of the coastal restaurants, and then continue to hang out on the yacht.

Time to say goodbye until next time, as at 9.00 we leave the yacht.
