A good base for walking as all the local buses leave (starting at 10.30am) from the bus station to the villages of La Gomera. Columbus set sail from here. It has several nice black sand beaches and some historic buildings like the Count's Tower or the Church of La Asunción. Throughout the years it has grown over the hills and inside the valley.

The town is stretched out down the valley. It features the island's only natural swimming pool, several charming beaches with views to Tenerife and is a great trekking base to discover Garajonay National Park and the island's green north due to it's proximity to San Sebastián and El Cedro Forest.
|type=city* Playa de Santiago 28.02881, -17.19788 South Playa Santiago - Gomera_2012_232a.JPG Small tourist resort dominated by large hotel complex owned by Fred Olsen and the ferry company.

La Gomera Halal Explorer

Undeveloped, unspoilt, beautiful island just 40 minutes by fast ferry from Tenerife. Ideal for walkers. Contrast between lush forests around the summit and in the national Park with dry vegetation on the flanks of the island. Of real interest to botanists for its variety of plant life and number of endemic species. Good climate all year round, especially in the south. La Gomera is one of two Canary Islands without direct tourist Flights from mainland Europe and the other being El Hierro.

Local Language in La Gomera

Spanish is the main language. English is widely understood in Valle Gran Rey, where German is easily the second language after Spanish. Most menus are printed in three languages. Famous for El Silbo - whistling language which was used to communicate across the deep valleys. The local council are trying to revive El Silbo; it is now a compulsory (and popular) subject in schools on the island.

Travel to La Gomera

Buy a Flight ticket to and from La Gomera

La Gomera Airport IATA Flight Code: GMZ Playa Santiago 28.03, -17.21 south of island, 34 kilometers southwest by road from the island's capital city, San Sebastián de la Gomera - La Gomera Airport - Aeropuertodelagomera - is served only by local planes from Tenerife North Airport. Binter Canarias operates 2 flights per day in ATR 72, from Tenerife North airport (IATA Flight Code: TFN, Los Rodeos), at 10:00 and 17:00. 30 min flights, operated by / Binter Canarias for €9–€18. Some flights also have some code-sharing with Iberia, enabling transit from International flights.

Most people fly to Tenerife South (IATA Flight Code: TFS, Reina Sofia) and then get a ferry from nearby Los Cristianos. Buses 451, 111 and 343 drive from Tenerife South Airport to Los Cristianos bus station GPS 28.05393, -16.71221. The ride costs €3.70 EUR (April 2023). The buses stop by the roundabout close to the Los Cristianos bus station. From there you need to walk about 1.5 kilometers down to the port where the ferries leave from.

Book a Halal Cruise or Boat Tour in La Gomera

By ferry from Los Cristianos in Tenerife to San Sebastian de la Gomera or directly to Playa Santiago or Valle Gran Rey.

Since the smaller company Garajonay Express was forced out, Fred Olsen Ferry fares have rocketed. During the boat-war, fares on both were around €25 return from Los Cristianos. Now, even an advance day return costs around €80 for the short 40-minutes crossing. Although residents of the Canary Islands have a discount of 50%, many on La Gomera consider these fares to be destroying visitor numbers and their small economy.

Two ferry companies are providing service:

Naviera Armas | ☎ +34 902 456 500, +34 928 300 600 Naviera Armas - Distintivo de los buques de Naviera Armas.JPG €32 one way, €64 return, travel duration ~60 minutes. Large ferry, taking around an hour to San Sebastian. Very nice ship with a big terrace on the upper deck and a lot of cafes and saloons inside.

Fred. Olsen Express - ☎ +34 902 100 107€34 one way, €68 Euros return Fred. Olsen Express - Bonanza_Express_sinking . Travel duration ~35 minutes. A ferry/catamaran named Benchi Express. The boat 40|metres in length and can carry more than 300 people with a speed of greater than 30|knots. Bus connection to/from Santa Cruz de Tenerife is available for no extra cost. The Benchi Express route is between Los Cristianos in Tenerife and San Sebastian de la Gomera, Playa Santiago to Valle Gran Rey.

La Gomera is in the Atlantic. This means that even in moderate windy weather the waves may become pretty big. In that case the catamarans may not sail. Particularly and the small Benchi Express is vulnerable. In the event the Benchi Express cannot sail, Fred Olsen will drive you to or from Gran Val Rey by bus. But, you need to be at the harbour 30 min earlier, and you sail on Olsen's big catamaran.

Get Around

Travel on a Bus in La Gomera

Public transport has improved in recent years with regular bus services (4 or 5 per day, Monday to Saturday; fewer on Sunday) to the main centres (Valle Gran Rey, Vallehermoso, Santiago) from the capital San Sebastian. Note that departures don't usually coincide with the ferry arrival times.

Journey time to Valle Gran Rey is around 1 hr 45 min. These buses are popular and it isn't always feasible to get on especially at the seaport when boats come in. Buses returning to the tourist centres late in the afternoon tend to get full of walkers and likewise the ones heading into the mountains early in the mornings. Fares are very reasonable. Drivers do not like to pick up or set down between stops for tourists even though you may see them do it for elderly local residents. The public buses are a blue/turquoise colour and are run by Servicio Regular Gomera S.L. Tickets are purchased from the driver. There are many other private coaches darting about the island which will not stop for you. The timetables do change and tourist offices will have up-to-date versions. A reliable source should be the official website].

By car

Reputable vehicle hire companies include CICAR] or gomerarentacar.com. One of the companies that accept debit cards is Pluscar. Most companies have their office right next to the San Sebastian ferry terminal. Since the amount of cars at the pier is limited (compared to e.g. TFS airport), it's probably best to book upfront.

Petrol is relatively affordable - about 1/10 less than in mainland Spain. However, bear in mind that the roads are very winding indeed, so driving is slow - don't expect to go faster than 50km/h most of the time. For example, air distance is only about 22km across the island from San Sebastian to Valle Gran Rey, but the distance by road is over twice that, and it will take you an hour and a half to drive it. Many people combine walking with hitchhiking. Taxis are not prohibitively expensive especially if there are several of you sharing.

What to see in La Gomera

El Castillo del Mar 28.2055, -17.2528 at Playa de Vallehermoso - Castillo_del_mar_-_La_Gomera.jpg. Former loading station (mostly for bananas), restored and turned into a venue by long-time resident German photographer. Has intimate atmospheric concerts, with the sound of the waves in the background}} Los Organos cliff - GPS: 28.2174, -17.2761 Los_Organos_La_Gomera.JPG. Striking basalt columns, similar to the Giant's Causeway, but only visible from the sea. Boats departing from Playa Santiago and Valle Gran Rey offer weekly trips around the island to visit it. It's name is because of the rocks, shaped by water and lava as church organ tubes. Mirador Cesar Manrique 28.11924, -17.31568 - Valle_Gran_Rey_-_panoramio - on the road between Arure and Valle Gran Rey, marked by a metal, kinetic sculpture . A restaurant cut into the mountainside by the Canaries most famous artist. Stunning views into the valley through the huge windows in this strangely formal establishment. Very hard to spot this place from the road below except at night when the lit windows float eerily in the darkened mountains. The restaurant was closed in 2009, but there is still a nice well-kept garden and a beautiful view}} Mirador de Abrante - Mirador de Agulo - GPS: 28.18595, -17.20127 Mirador_de_Abrante_(23320337451).jpg.

Top Muslim Travel Tips for La Gomera

Wildfires in the summer of 2012 burned over 3,000 hectares on the island, including over ten per cent of Garajonay National Park. Officials estimated that it would take at least three decades for the burned areas of forest to recover.

Garajonay National Park - Gomera.jpg. A UNESCO World Heritage site - extensive forested area on the top of the island. It protects the largest laurel rainforest remaining on Earth, "almost as old as the island itself" — the vegetation type has stayed the same for millions of years. The forest is made up of different evergreens flourishing under the mild temperatures. Trees are irrigated by the mist which sometimes covers the top of the island, especially in winter. The trees are covered in mosses and lichens. This environment extended all around the Mediterranean Sea in the Tertiary Era, so the National Park is considered a living relic. Several species endemic to the Canary Islands live here, including the Gomeran lizard, Gomeran skink, stripeless tree frog, laurel pigeon and Bolle's pigeon. Crisscrossed with footpaths of several difficulty levels, it is known as the green heart of La Gomera. Highlights include:

Alto de Garajonay 28.10974, -17.24834 - Cima_garajonay_19-07-2006.JPG. The summit of the island, at 1,487 m elevation with a stunning 360° view. Visit when the mist clears. Good views across to Mount Teide (Tenerife) and to El Hierro and La Palma}}

Laurisilva Forest 28.1376, -17.2897 between Las Hayas and Las Creces - BR_LaGomera_Bosque_del_Cedro_1.jpg. Very eerie in the mist if the trees are creaking. Beautiful carpets of pink flowers in spring. For even more "old forest" experience, an easy extension of the hike is feasible - go from Raso de la Bruma (TF-713 road parking) to Las Hayas and back.

La Laguna Grande GPS 28.1243608,-17.2557937 La_Laguna_Grande_at_Parque_Nacional_de_Garajonay._Circle_of_Witches._La_Gomera._Canary_Islands,_Spain_-_panoramio.jpg. A small park with playgrounds and a few footpaths towards a viewpoint of Alto de Garajonay. Good place for a short hike with kids, with a restaurant at the parking spot.

El Cedro Forest 28.1262, -17.2224 - Arroyo_en_el_bosque_del_Cedro.jpg. Despite the name and these are not cedar woods (the name refers to a long gone lone cedar tree). One feasible way is starting on top and going to El Cedro (or even to Hermigua) - the landscape changes from small, mostly dry vegetation to a dense forest with tall trees, and beautifully calm. There are many other walking routes around the forest. Don't miss the water tunnel through the mountain (take a torch and mind your head! And boots as the water can be six inches deep or more). Access to El Cedro is feasible also by car, via a road made from loose flat stones - fun auditory experience, as vehicle moves the stones slightly. On the path between El Cedro and Hermigua and there's a waterfall 28.1378, -17.2137 - the only one in La Gomera that has water all year long.

La Fortaleza 28.0989, -17.2775 La_Fortaleza_en_La_Gomera.jpg. Near Pavón, an outcrop of rock looking like a fort, or a bit like table mountain. Similar but smaller mountain is nearby Alajeró, with a small church at the top.

El Magro and El Sombrero - The lion GPS 28.0886, -17.1613 Hike to two rocks resembling a lion and a sombrero.

Valle Gran Rey - Stunning terraces in the upper valley. Lower valley still showing some influence (in places) of the time when this was a hippie hangout, but creature comforts widely available. In the upper part of the valley and there are several good paths up in the mountains.

Walking

Most visitors come for the top class walking. There are many paths all over the island, from gentle strolls through the rainforest to all day treks. Signage has improved dramatically over recent years, making self-guided walks much simpler.

Normal precautions regarding walking on your own apply on La Gomera, too. Always make sure that somebody knows where you are headed and when you can be expected to return. Pack rain and windproof warm clothing in your daypack even it's nice and sunny when you leave. Also, don't forget to take a cellphone and a torch with you, drinking water and something to eat. However and there are also many shorter walks (such as up one side of Valle Gran Rey and down the other) that need no more than sandals.

Walking in heavy rain might be dangerous (as well as unpleasant) due to rock falls and landslides.

Organized

Several firms offer guided walks, which can be useful if you don't have transport or want to do a point to point walk. One of these companies is Timah. They offer guided walks at around €30 each (including the transportation to the starting point of the walk as well as the trip back) with English and German speaking guides.

Another company offering walks is Viajes Temocoda. Temocoda's walks are a little bit more expensive but lunch is included in the price.

Visit the tourist office in Valle Gran Rey (Calle Lepanto, s/n. La Playa) or the various travel agencies in Valle Gran Rey for information about other providers of walks. Agencies can usually make the booking for you, but at least Timah has an office in Valle Gran Rey (La Puntilla) and you can book your walk there as well.

Guided walks can be recommended not only because they include transportation and free you from the infrequent bus service, but the guides will tell you all sorts of interesting tidbits about the island.

Self-guided

A good map will come handy. Recommended ones are by DWG, Kompass, and Freydag & Berndt. Each shows slightly different information, so consider buying two different ones. Maps and guidebooks are readily available in San Sebastian and Valle Gran Rey.

Electronic sources include:

The [https://=C OpenStreetMap Project, which many mobile Apps like OsmAnd, / MAPS.ME, etc. use, provides fairly detailed/complete maps of the island, including hiking trails.
wikiloc with hundreds of feasible trails

Several books offer detailed descriptions of available routes such as The Landscapes of Southern Tenerife and La Gomera by Sunflower Books and Walk! La Gomera by DWG].

Mountain biking

La Gomera is a good biking destination as it offers mountainous paved roads as well as single trails and dirt roads for the mountain bikers. In Valle Gran Rey there are three mountain bike tour operators and bike rentals available in the villages of La Playa, La Puntilla and Vueltas.

Be careful when riding down as the roads are steep and have tight bends. There are also two tunnels when coming down to Valle Gran Rey. The second and longer one can be circumvented by using the old road instead which goes by the mountainside. It starts on the right hand side of the tunnel entrance. However, extreme care is required as the railings on the old road are not in good condition (or missing altogether in places) and there are also big rocks and other debris on the road. When you drive in the tunnels make sure you have a headlight and a backlight (or at least a red reflector) so that cars can see you well ahead. Never ride without a well-fitting helmet.

Relaxing

The slow pace of life is contagious and the perfect antidote to stress. If you lack transport to Garojonay, walking in Valle Gran Rey (playa Del Ingles to bevond Vueltas) is easy and relaxing.

Beaches

Alojera1 - Playa de Alojera

There are beaches at the end of most valleys, of varying quality. Valle Gran Rey has safe sandy beaches at Vueltas and El Charco (literally 'The Puddle'). Swimming can be challenging and even dangerous on the open beaches around the island. Playa la Caleta, near Hermigua, has a bar/restaurant on the beach. There is a semi-nude beach (clothing is optional) called Playa del Ingles behind La Playa in Valle Gran Rey. However, it's rocky and very dangerous for swimming especially when the sea is rough. There is a warning sign on the beach saying that the latest (fatal?) accident happened in the end of 2005, so keep this in mind if you think about taking a dip there.

San Sebastian has two good beaches, Playa Santiago (as the name suggests) also has a beach. There is a public swimmingpool at Playa de Vallehermoso (near El Castillo) and there is a swimming tank-thing by the remains of the embarcadero in Hermigua.

If you don't mind the long, steep, winding drive and there is a lovely little beach at Alojera.

Flora

Fascinating sub-tropical vegetation abounds with the unique Laurisilva rainforest in the national park, Garajonay, which is situated on the highest part of La Gomera. Laurisilva has a very special property in that it makes clouds into rain: Due to the pressing upwards of the trade winds and there are often clouds on the top of La Gomera; but the leaves of the trees of Laurisilva have pores that catch the small drops from the clouds. The surplus water absorbed is secreted so that the trees are raining, which increases precipitation from 50-100%. Of the remaining Laurisilva is 50% growing on La Gomera, which makes Garajonay unique from a nature conservation point of view. Laurisilva has in earlier periods covered large areas surrounding the Middle Sea, but disappeared due to climate changes. The National Visitor Centre at Juego de Bolas, above Las Rosas, has a selection of native and endemic plants, as well as various artesanal artifacts. There are plenty fine walking paths in Garajonay and the surrounding landscape.

There is also a botanic garden of sorts near Vallehermoso. This could be excellent if better maintained, but has the air of somewhere abandoned.

Photography

La Gomera is so beautiful that photo opportunities are everywhere. Most primary streets have clearly signed viewpoints, including parking for a short stop.

Book a Diving trip in La Gomera

There are a couple of diving schools on La Gomera, [https://eid=1&meid=-1&newlang=eng one in Valle Gran Rey and one in Playa Santiago.

Whale watching

Whale watching boat trips run from Valle Gran Rey with Excursiones Tina or Oceano Gomera.

Halal Food & Restaurants

Watercress soup with gofio (maize flour)
Palm honey (Miel de Palma), palm tree syrup is boiled up to produce this delicious liquid that features in many Gomeran dishes, especially deserts.
Mojo Sauce comes in red or green - red is for hala Meat and can be quite spicy, green for fish, based on garlic and coriander. Mojo in restaurants is usually home-made and quite variable, but always interesting. No Burgers chain uniformity here and all the better for it!
Papas arrugadas (literally wrinkly potatoes). Exquisite if done well with small, black potatoes, but price rises often mean that now cheaper potatoes are used. Eat with red or green mojo.

Restaurants:

El Silbo Carretera General 102, 38820 Hermigua 28.1788, -17.1860 ☎ +34 922 88 03 04 Restaurant with typical Canarians meals. It provides Silbo Gomero whistling demonstrations. It also has a café.

La Vista El Cedro, CV-22 28.1371, -17.2150 on the border of Garajonay National Park, off GMonday - 1 ☎ +34 922 88 09 49, +34 922 88 08 04 Opening Hours: 09:00–20:00 Quite and friendly mountain restaurant, surrounded by the Laurisilva forest. Has won prize of the best watercress soup of La Gomera.

Excellent freshly prepared fruit juices and milkshakes are widely available. If you are feeling brave, try parra and the local firewater (similar to Italian grappa) or a Gomeron, which is parra mixed with palm honey.

Local has recently been awarded DOC status. Try Garajonay white soft drinks.

Great Coffee, but remember that many local residents take it with condensed milk (leche condensada). Try a 'leche y leche' - an expresso with a squirt of condensed milk and a splash of hot milk - much better than it sounds!

Muslim Friendly Hotels

Most tourists head for Valle Gran Rey, with its stunning terraces and selection of restaurants. These give a good balance between facilities and getting away from the stresses of western life. But the upper parts of this valley and all the beautiful rest of La Gomera remain unspoilt. There is also a push for more rural tourism, if you want to get completely away from things. However, it's worth remembering that the higher villages can be much cooler than the coast.

Accommodation in San Sebastian includes Villa Gomera (rooms and apartments available), Quintera apartments close to the seafront and the upmarket La Gomera Parador perched on the cliff-edge overlooking the harbour.

Playa Santiago has the Jardin Tecina complex, run by Fred Olsen, expensive, but worth a visit to see the impressive flora and the "James Bond" lift down to the beach. While Valle Gran Rey has the Hotel Gran Rey on the seafront and the Hotel Playa Calera in La Playa. The three villages, of which Valle Gran Rey is comprised, offer many superior Muslim friendly rooms. Walk around !
