Spain - Canaries - Other Islands

Most visitors to the Canaries head for the major islands of Gran Canaria, Tenerife, Lanzarote, and Fuerteventura. If you're the kind of tourist who likes to stray from the beaten beach path, take time to visit one or more of these peaceful islands:

La Gomera

All About Spain: Gomera
You won't find any active volcanoes here--instead, the steep mountain slopes are covered with forests, and fruit plantations dot the lowlands.

La Gomera
The island government's bilingual Web site has information on hiking, ecology, cuisine, accommodations, and more.

Canary Online: La Gomera
What to see, where to stay, and what to do on the island where Columbus paid a visit on his way to America.

La Gomera Pictures
Olav Thu's photographs show Gomera's breathtaking beauty.

El Hierro

All About Spain: Hierro
The smallest and most isolated Canary Island is a place where tourism plays second fiddle to sheep, goats, and vineyards.

El Hierro
The island's tourist office provides useful information in English.

Canary Online: El Hierro
What do see, where to stay, and what to do on an island that "is ideal for lovers of nature and quietness."

La Palma

La Palma Tourism
Like the mountainous island, the tourist office's official Web site has its ups and downs. If the site is unresponsive, try Canarias: La Palma or Wikipedia's article about the island.
 

All About Spain: La Palma
Come to see the world's largest volcanic crater; stay to tour the island's verdant scenery, pleasant towns, and jagged coastline.

Canary Online: La Palma
What to see, where to stay, and what to do on "the island with the maximum altitude-surface ratio in the whole planet!"
