Visiting La Gomera with family allows us to feel that charming characteristic enveloping what we really love. The little and ones and not so little ones immediately become stars of the most entertaining and mysterious stories you can imagine.

Our proposal is an intimate encounter with nature, starting at the Garajonay National Park, who is plenty of trails to stroll along with different degrees of difficulty. Telling children the story of Gara and Jonay before visiting the Park already prepares them to enjoy it to the fullest. As soon as they begin to see the first trees (if they are lucky enough to see the sea of clouds, they will understand it even more), they explain the uniqueness of this sponge forest. The water-filled clouds that bring the trade winds leave their small droplets in the forest as they pass through it, a phenomenon known as horizontal rain. The Park also contains history of giants, the “Roques” which emerged from the depths of the earth with their imposing vertical heights set the stage for the richest stories in a child’s imagination. In the heart of the Park there are viewpoints to observe them in all their magnitude.

Following our proposal, we move on the water. The beaches of La Gomera are ideal for holidays with children, away from crowds, with quiet natural pools and beaches for all tastes. Some of them also have stories to teach children, from the “Charco del Conde” and the “Charco de la Condesa”, in Valle Gran Rey, or the beaches of San Sebastián de La Gomera that are associated with the history of Christopher Columbus.

The charming La Gomera, because it is a charming island, it is loved from the moment it is first seen, and because adventures can be experienced that connect both young and old to the untouched nature that characterises it.
