The island of La Palma was declared a World Biosphere Reserve in its entirety in 2002. Although its surface is relatively small, it has a great diversity of landscapes and places of interest that make it unique: from exotic black sand beaches to impressive high mountain landscapes, passing through waters full of life, recent volcanic areas, lush Canarian pine forests and exuberant laurel forests.

But there's more: you can also enjoy both the unique seabed and one of the best night skies on the planet, which have turned La Palma into the first Starlight Reserve and Destination in the world and a scientific research point of international reference.

Nor should we miss the enormous cultural wealth: mysterious archaeological sites are distributed throughout the territory of La Palma that take us back to times before the conquest and our charming towns perfectly represent the fusion of cultures after this and its evolution throughout of history. Not in vain, the port of Santa Cruz de La Palma was the third most important in the Spanish Empire and for centuries it has been a bridge between both shores of the Atlantic.
